Kathmandu Valley has developed over centuries as a meeting point of Hinduism and Buddhism, while its historic cities have preserved remarkable examples of traditional Newari craftsmanship and architecture.

The Kathmandu Heritage Tour Package brings these different elements together, creating a compact cultural experience for both first-time visitors and travelers returning to Nepal.
