Overview of Incredible Nepal Bhutan Tour

The phenomenal Incredible Nepal Bhutan Tour allows you to delve deeply into many captivating sites throughout Nepal and Bhutan. After starting in Kathmandu and visiting its beautiful sites, you will proceed to Pokhara. Since admiring the city underneath the belly of the Himalayas and the lush flamboyance of the Kaski region, you will eventually wind up flying to Bhutan’s Paro. With countless monasteries along the adventure, Bhutan’s mesmerizing tone will let you reacquaint yourself with its impeccable heritage and culture. On your Incredible Nepal Bhutan Tour, you’ll be mystified by the Punakha Dzong, Taktsang monastery, Dochu La Pass, and many other major attractions.

Stunning view from Pokhara

Pokhara is Nepal’s most popular tourist destination. Pokhara is part of the Kaski region, and the entire Kaski region receives abundant monsoon rains, which makes the entire landscape appear lush and regal. The bare outlook of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, Macchapuchre (Fishtail), and many other Himalayas will enchant you from here. More than that, the city is peaceful, and the evening by the lakeside will be a priceless experience. Paragliding, rafting, cycling, fishing, and many other outdoor activities are also readily accessible in the stunning city of Pokhara.

Additionally, you can explore gorgeous waterfalls, watersheds, streams, tributaries, and caves depicting historical events and inscriptions. Furthermore, taking a boat ride on Phewa Lake in the evening would be a wonderful experience. More than this, a view of Rupa Lake, Begnas Lake, and rivers like Marshyangdi will enhance the tour’s essence. The city’s evenings get chilly because of the cold air streaming in from the north of Pokhara, and during the day, it always rains while summer is in full swing.

    Essential Information

    When is the ideal time to visit Bhutan, and what is the weather like there?

    Bhutan can be visited all year long. Summer (June, July, and August), autumn (September, October, and November), winter (December, January, and February), and spring are the four seasons (March, April, and May). However, the country has a wide range of altitudes, and the north Indian monsoons significantly impact the climate.

    Temperatures in the southern hemisphere typically range from 15°C to 30°C year-round in a humid, subtropical climate. Warm summers and chilly, dry winters, which feature softwoods, characterize the climate in central Bhutan. Winter temperatures in the north are substantially lower. Mountain summits are always covered in snow due to their height, and the lower regions are kept cool in the summer.

    The Indian monsoon season primarily affects the southern regions and lasts from late June or July until late September during the summer. Summer is the primary farming season because crops grow in lush surroundings.

    The wet season is followed by autumn, which lasts from late September or early October through late November. Its defining features are bright, sunny days and perhaps early snowfall at higher elevations. As farmers enjoy the rewards of their labor, this is the time of year for celebrations and feasts.

    The winter arrives in late November and lasts until March. Most of the country experiences frost, and snowfall is frequent above elevations of 3,000 meters. Bhutan’s official language, Dzongkha, translates Drukyul as “Land of the Thunder Dragon” and describes the region as having gale-force winds at the highest elevations and via high mountain passes. The winter northeast monsoon causes this phenomenon.

    Bhutan’s typically dry spring season begins in early March and lasts through mid-April. With nature in its prime, it is a botanist’s dream. With sporadic showers, summer weather starts mid-April and lasts until late June.
