Nepal.
Nepal is where mountains, gods and people live in an almost mystical balance. For Tripsterescu, Nepal is about getting back to basics: you breathe more deeply, you walk more slowly, but you feel that every step carries weight.
WHAT ARE THE KEY EXPERIENCES?
Kathmandu - myths breathe
Every street feels like a living story. At Swayambhunath, monkeys steal your snack with the ease with which Tibetan monks offer a smile. In Thamel, the heart of the city, you discover lanterns, hidden restaurants and your first contact with the Nepalese pulse. And at Ghode Jatra, the horse festival, tradition chases away evil spirits with parades and gallops - a mix of spectacle and local faith.
Rituals and spirituality
At Pashupatinath, one of the holiest Hindu temples dedicated to Shiva, you'll have a thought-provoking experience: the funeral pyres on the banks of the Bagmati River. An evening that reminds you that Nepal is not just beautiful, it's profound.
Pokhara - mirror of the Himalayas
You arrive on the shores of Lake Phewa, where the sunset at Shiva Temple colors the sky orange and purple. Mornings can start with yoga, creative workshops or simply a coffee with a mountain view. Here you can scooter through villages, climb the hills for the open-air movie theater or lose yourself in the city's bohemian vibe.
Pure adrenaline
Bungee jumping, ziplining, skydiving with the Himalayas in the background, white water rafting, helicopter or ultralight flying - all in one day. It's the chapter that reminds you that Nepal isn't all tranquility and temples, but also a dose of madness.
Trekking in Himalayas - Poon Hill (3,200 m)
Climb through traditional villages, sleep in mountain huts, taste the simple but delicious food of the locals.See the sunrise from 3,200 meters, illuminating legendary peaks such as Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, Machhapuchhare (Fishtail). That moment when you stand in the cold, tired but full of spirit.
Chitwan - Nepalese jungle
OPTIONAL: After the mountains, you descend into the plains. Chitwan means Nepalese safari: elephants, Indian rhinoceroses, exotic birds, and, with a bit of luck, the silent tracks of Bengal tigers. Here, nature has a different voice, a wild and authentic one.
NEPAL in Tripsterescu's vision
Nepal is not just the Himalayas, it is where mountains, gods and people live in an almost mystical balance. For Tripsterescu, Nepal means adventure, exploration, curiosity and openness to the new, to another world. You come here not just for the scenery, but for the energy of a place where everything seems connected: from the smile of the guide who tells you legends thousands of years old, to the ding-dong of the temple bells or the sun rising timidly over 8000m peaks.
The 10 days spent here are more than a vacation – they are an initiatory journey: from the colorful chaos of Kathmandu, to the tranquility of Pokhara's waters, to the „wow” moments on the Himalayan ridges. Nepal is not a place you check off, it's a place where you learn to be present.
Because it's the perfect combination of adventure, spirituality and authenticity. It's not just a „trip”, it's a story you live day by day, step by step. It's for those who want to step out of their comfort zone and discover what it really means to „see beyond the apparent”.
I don't need more information! You convinced me!

We land in Kathmandu and spend our first evening together at a Nepalese-style welcome dinner with music and stories. It's the moment we officially get into the local atmosphere.
We visit the Monkey Temple, with its panoramic view of the city and monkeys on their chests. We continue to Boudhanath, one of the world's largest stupas and a Buddhist pilgrimage site. In the evening we explore Thamel, the tourist district of Kathmandu, with our guide and end the day with a traditional dinner.
We set off for Pokhara, the „city of lakes”. The evening catches us on the hillside at the Shiva Temple, where we watch the spectacular sunset over the Himalayas, then discover the city's bohemian vibe at a local diner.
The morning is for creative workshops and relaxing activities on the shores of Lake Phewa. In the afternoon, those who want can rent scooters to explore the surrounding villages. Evenings are spent at the open-air movie theater, with a screen under the star-filled sky.
The perfect day out for the adventurous: bungee jumping, skydiving with the mountains in the background, rafting, helicopter or ultralight flights.
We start the ascent to Poon Hill (3,200 m) first stop is Ghorepani, passing through traditional mountain villages. The food is simple but authentic, and the hospitality of the locals makes the whole trek beautiful.
