Day 2: Sightseeing in Kathmandu
- Enjoy a full day tour covering the best sites of Kathamandu – visit the holy monkeys at Swayambhunath Stupa Temple, call in at the Boudhhanath which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and end the day observing evening prayers at Pashupatinth Temple.
Day 3: White Water Rafting

- In the afternoon students will have a cooking class to learn about traditional Nepalese food, they will cook their own food for dinner today!
Day 4 & 5: Volunteering
- Students will spend 2 days volunteering. They will live on an organic farm where they’ll learn farming and agricultural practices, as well as trying their hand at cooking traditional Nepali foods.
Day 6: Return to Kathmandu
- Today students bid farewell to the farm community and take a private coach back to Kathmandu. Where they will have some final time for souvenir shopping and exploring more of Kathmandu.
- On the last night in Nepal, a traditional Nepalese dinner provides a chance for students, teachers and adventure leaders to come together for a reflection session. Through discussion, listening and guided thought, participants can process their experiences, digest new ideas and consider what they have learned about the region, its people and themselves during the trip.
Day 7: Home time!
- Sadly, today it’s time to head back to the airport for your flight home.
