Pashupatinath Aarati Tour is a unique evening tour in the heart of Kathmandu which includes two historical, cultural, and spiritual world heritage sites of Nepal i.e Bouddhanath and Pashupatinath.

Mixed with Hindu and Buddhist culture, an evening tour of these spots will help you to explore the daily ritual ceremonies in the temple and the monastery of two different sites.

As Kathmandu is also known as the city of temples and (Gumba) monastery, an evening tour that begins from Bouddhanath will take you to Nepal's biggest stupa, dating back to the 5th century.

Afternoon monastery gets open for the devotees and the ritual ceremonies by the monk can be observed you can take active participation inside the monastery, as the monastery is open to all sentient beings.

A cup of tea/coffee on the rooftop of some restaurant will add an extra advantage, as the devotee pays homage to the stupa moving clockwise spinning the praying wheels all around and the views from the top will be amazing.

Further heading towards Pashupatinath, just a 5-minute distance from Bouddhanath, you will be amazed to see the Hindu ritual ceremony on the bank of the holy river Bagmati and the cremation of the dead bodies on the other side of the river.

Pashupatinath is one of the holiest Hindu temples dedicated to Lord Shiva, built in pagoda style, and has religious importance for Hindus all around the world. Every evening there is an Aarati ceremony and devotees flock to observe.

Inside the main courtyard of the temple foreigners as strictly prohibited to enter, but the entire area can be visited except the temple courtyard. The evening will be a special time to view the ritual Aarati and some Bhajanas being sung.

On the same bank of the river live cremation ceremonies are being done, this shows the importance of life and death in Hindu philosophy; where both rituals Aarati and death ceremonies go together,

To have this view every day thousands of devotees visit the temple. As it is believed that Lord Shiva flocks around Pashupatinath to have the view of Aarati and for devotees visiting this temple means attaining liberation from the circle of rebirth.

This Aarati Tour to Pashupatinath will make you feel the spiritual vibration with the live ritual ceremonies in two religious World Heritage Sites of Nepal.

If you have a free evening, it is highly recommended to enjoy the spiritual evening tour in the heart of Kathmandu with our government-registered religious Tour guide, who will help you to explain each ceremony with its importance and ritual significance, with stories about the legends that follow.

Sightseeing Deluxe

A very special introduction to the culture of Nepal was given to me by Kumar, the manager of Discover Altitude. He was my guide for a few days and I was able to see extraordinary things and felt very comfortable in his presence. With great knowledge, he led me through all the temples of Kathmandu and we were also on the way outside. I was blessed with wonderful memories. Highly recommended team...

Fantastic, stupendous and superb

We two senior citizen friends (65) took a customized tour to Lower Mustang tour. In these 4 days and 3 nights trip transport, driver, and guide were provided by the agency. In the rough terrain all the way, the transport provided along with the driver Subhash negotiated the difficult road very efficiently and professionally. The guide Mr. Narain, a thoroughly professional guy with his immaculate English fed us all the necessary information and kept our morale high all along. We were very apt in customizing the trip as and when it was needed, without any hesitation. Can’t thank more to Santosh and Kumar who were at the helm of the affairs.
Highly recommend them for their very professional service and care.
Our best gratitude to Naran, the guide without him this trip would have been boring and futile.

Everest region hiking and cultural tour of Kathmandu

I just did excellent trekking tour in Everest region, very well organized by Discover Altitude company. The guides Amar and Suckre did fantastic job, both of them always positive and helpful. As well there was historical and cultural tour of Kathmandu which was really interesting with plenty of amazing places to visit. Kumar and Santos presented the activities with a lot of details and knowledge which gives additional value of the city tour. Super experience which I highly recommend.

THE BEST TRIP - Female Solo Traveller

It's hard to explain how amazing this trip was - and how integral Kumar and his team of Santos and Narayan was to the success of it. I found his name recommended time and time again on a fb group for solo female travellers.

I initially booked the 9 day EBC tour, and then stayed in Kathmandu for a week after.Not only was Kumar in touch with my during the trip itself, but he was there to answer any little question I had for about 2 months prior. I would WhatsApp him, and he would reply and explain everything to me. As a female solo traveller, this constant line of communication was so important to a feeling of safety.

He organised a yoga and meditation retreat, a Kathmandu city tour, a trip to Chitwan safari and finally a day tour to Bhaktapur - Kumar was there every step of the way.
During the EBC trip, my guide Narayan was simply amazing - he has extensive knowledge of everything in the mountains, from how local communities work to altitude sickness.

I ended up having to be helicoptered out of there and went to hospital, where Santos and Kumar visited me twice in 24hrs, and really took care of me.
Like I said, it's hard for me to express how much Kumar and his team MADE my trip. Kumar, Santos and Narayan, thank you so so much, you are the BEST!
