The experience at a glance

Nepal

You embark on a stunning travel journey to South Asia, from your entrance to Kathmandu, Nepal. Nepal is famous for its magnificent temples, monuments, monasteries, and ethnically diverse terrain, as well as vast foliage and fauna that are amazing to behold. Its cultural and natural wonders are so splendid that one tour is simply not enough.

Bhutan

For 4 days, you'll also experience a cultural tour from Kathmandu to Bhutan. Bhutan is a small, landlocked country like Nepal, nestled between the giant countries of China and India. Bhutan has adopted and maintained Buddhism and has been given the chance to study the teachings and see a simple way of living among the people of Bhutan. Bhutan’s strategy of ensuring Gross National Happiness instead of GDP is an excellent illustration of the efforts made by nations to ensure that nature and culture are preserved and cherished, which makes it a country with a purpose in their endeavors to safeguard its beautiful nature. How do you travel between these two Himalayan nations?

An amazing 7-Day Kathmandu Bhutan tour for these two Himalayan countries opens doors to easy travel. You arrive in Kathmandu and our representative will welcome you at the airport and take you to your hotel. During this Nepal Bhutan Tour Package you will learn about some of the top locations in Kathmandu such as the Kathmandu Durbar Square and observe the temple of the living goddess and participate in the Kora at Boudhanath Stupa. You will also go hiking to the Swoyambhunath Temple or Monkey Temple. After diving deeply into all of Kathmandu, your Bhutan adventure from Kathmandu involves an exciting flight from Tribhuvan International Airport (Kathmandu) to Paro International Airport. You can visit famous places in Bhutan, including Tashicho Dzong (Fortress), Tiger’s Nest (Taktsang Monastery), Kuenselphodrang, National Textile Museum, Craft Bazaar, Rinpung Dzong, etc. The hike to Tiger’s Nest is one of the highlights of the Bhutan trip package, lasting a round-trip of four to five hours. Visa and Flight

The process for getting a Nepal tourist visa is straightforward. You can complete the Nepal visa form at the provided machine at the airport or at home before you start your ride, print the form, and present it for access upon arrival at Kathmandu. The tourist visa fee is USD 30 for a 15-day stay with multiple entries.

With Bhutan, the visa process is not the same. It must be arranged through the tour operator and approved by the Tourism Council of Bhutan (TCB). With faith, we will address the visa and issue you with an e-Visa Clearance Letter prior to visiting Bhutan. Flight On the flights side, two operators, Druk Air and Bhutan Airlines, operate daily flights from Kathmandu to Bhutan, on most of the peak seasons. They are making it a breeze to go back and forth between the two sites wherever you like. Best time for the tour of the 7 Day Kathmandu Bhutan

Highlights Helicopter flight to Everest near base camp. Anup personally going to the airport in Nepal to sort out flights requiring change due to the Iran crisis. Flights that were nothing to do with the tour. An extra unscheduled day in Nepal handled without hesitation, and refused payment for it. Coeliac disease managed throughout without a single issue. Bhutan’s bureaucracy, visas, tourist tax all seamlessly handled Details When I was looking for a tour company for a private tour of Nepal and Bhutan trip, Himalayan Windows stood out for their excellent reviews. What I didn't realise at the time was quite how far they would go when things got complicated. We were due to fly from Bhutan to Dubai after the tour, but late in the day our flights were cancelled due to the Iran crisis. We decided to reroute to Japan instead, but some self-inflicted confusion with the airline left us unable to get anything sorted. At that point, Anup — who runs the company — personally went to the airport and spent considerable time untangling the whole thing, despite those flights having absolutely nothing to do with the tour he'd been hired for. The shuffle of my flights meant that we had an extra unscheduled day back in Nepal. Not only did they agree to host me, covering pickups and an extra day touring, Anup refused to take payment for doing it. There were other things like buying us tape to hold our damaged suitcase together but the main point here is this was a remarkable level of service. In a remote country where problems arise that are nothing to do with the tour company but they take them on and fix them for you is pure gold. Back to the beginning. When I first got in touch, they worked with me to design an itinerary that fitted what I was looking for, with plenty of input on what to consider and what to leave out. We ended up with something well-tailored at a very competitive price. The tour itself was excellent. We spent three nights in Nepal and three in Bhutan, with all breakfasts included and all meals in Bhutan. The guides were always early, knew their stuff and were easy to spend time with. Flights between the two countries were handled for us, including getting us the best seats for the Everest views. On our second day in Nepal, Himalayan Windows organised a helicopter flight to stand near Everest base camp, close to the Khumbu icefall. This may not have been very cultural but it was completely mind-blowing. If you get the chance, take it. In Bhutan we hiked up to Tiger's Nest Monastery — the iconic temple perched on the cliff face. Breathtaking in every sense; the views and the climb. Bhutan comes with its own bureaucratic quirks — when we visited in March 2026, you were required to book through a government-registered company like Himalayan Windows and they handled all of it: visas, tourist tax, the lot. I have coeliac disease, which makes travel genuinely difficult in many places. It was never an issue here. Gluten-free versions of everything were arranged throughout without me having to fight for it. Communication across the whole trip was easy — WhatsApp throughout, always responsive. Himalayan Windows delivered a well-designed itinerary, excellent guides, and smooth logistics. What makes them really special is what they did for us when issues arose through no fault of theirs.

Flawless! This Company is Built on Kindness & Customer Service

I just returned from a tour, impeccably organized by Anup and his company, of Kathmandu, Nepal and Paro/Thimphu, Bhutan. From Anup’s first timely response to my initial inquiry email to the day I departed to come home, he provided exceptional, personal customer service unlike any I have ever received before. As a solo woman traveler, I felt cared for, safe and well taken care of. Anup himself greeted me when I arrived in Kathmandu and, to my surprise, also took time out of his busy day to personally see me off on my last. I also received numerous texts and emails from him throughout my tour, as he checked up on me to be sure I was enjoying myself and that everything was going as planned. He genuinely cared about “little things” to a busy tour organizer, but that were of great importance to me, such as booking me a seat on my requested side of the plane from Kathmandu to Paro to ensure I had the chance to get that perfect picture of Mount Everest from the window (‘got it!). The tour guides and drivers that he booked for me were courteous and caring and I couldn’t have asked for better. The hotels were perfectly fine. I am happy to answer any questions that future travellers to beautiful Bhutan and fascinating Nepal may have. I very highly recommend Anup and his company, Himalayan Windows, for any tours to this part of the world.
