Highlights
In the midst of the commotion and cacophony of Kathmandu lie two places that feature the great dichotomy of Nepal: The Garden of Dreams and the famous Thamel Shopping District. With your personal guide, navigate the narrow streets and shops to find the finest of bargains, and then relaxing in the quietness of the Garden of Dreams.
Thamel is the mecca of shopping adventure. Its narrow streets are filled with people, rickshaws and activity. Musicians provide live entertainment as you walk from shop to shop. The narrow alleyways are filled with delightful shops that feature amazing jewelry, pashmina, rare books and food from around the world.
Then there is the Garden of Dreams. A beautiful, English garden with reflecting ponds, statues and hidden alcoves that is alive with colorful flowers. It was designed almost 100 years ago by one of the Ranas whose family ruled Nepal for just over 104 years.
Itinerary
Garden of Dreams
1 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedNo trip to Kathmandu is complete without diving into Thamel, the city's vibrant, colorful, and wonderfully chaotic heart! This is a "must-see" cultural hub and a shopper's paradise. Our expert guide will lead you through its famous maze of spider-web alleys, helping you discover hidden gems you'd never find alone. Unearth treasures, from handcrafted jewelry and rare books to authentic Pashmina and yak wool. But Thamel is more than shopping; it's a cultural explosion. We'll pass hidden Hindu and Buddhist temples where craftsmen and devotees share the same narrow lanes. Then, when you're ready to escape, your guide will reveal the ultimate secret: Garden of Dreams. Step through a gate and leave the "cacophony" behind, entering a stunningly beautiful and peaceful neoclassical garden. This is your private oasis. Relax on the lush green lawns, find a quiet nook, and soak in the tranquility. This "must-do" tour shows you both sides of Kathmandu: the thrilling energy and the serene calm.Asan
30 minsAdmission Ticket FreeThis is not just a market; it's a "must-see" sensory explosion and the historic, beating heart of old Kathmandu. Asan, located at the ancient crossroads of old caravan routes, is the city's most vibrant and wonderfully chaotic traditional bazaar. Your guide will lead you through this famous "six-street" intersection, where authentic Newari culture unfolds in a dazzling display. This is where real locals have shopped for centuries. Prepare to be amazed by the sights, sounds, and smells: pyramids of colorful spices, mountains of rice and lentils, glistening copperware, and bright marigold garlands. Asan is also a major cultural and religious hub, with its own festival calendar and the hidden, central Annapurna Temple (Temple of the Goddess of Grains). This is a "must-do" for photographers and anyone wanting to experience the real, unfiltered energy of Kathmandu's oldest marketplace.
