Travel agency for tailor-made trips to Nepal

In Nepal, two windows stand out clearly. From October to early December, the air is cleared by the monsoon, the Himalayan peaks stand out with rare precision, and the Annapurna and Khumbu trails can be trekked in ideal conditions. March and April offer another face: flowering rhododendrons color the mid-altitude mountains, and temperatures remain mild up to 3,500 meters. Winter, colder at altitude, suits Kathmandu, the valley and the Terai, around Chitwan. It's best to avoid June to September, when the monsoon floods the trails and obscures the panoramas. When to visit Nepal depends mainly on the type of trek you're planning and the altitude you're aiming for.

A trip to Nepal remains affordable considering what it offers, but the budget varies depending on your preferred pace and comfort level. For a stay combining Kathmandu, the valley, a guided trek and a stopover in Pokhara or Chitwan, expect on average between €1,800 and €2,800 per person excluding international flights, over around twelve days. Guide and porter fees, trek permits (TIMS, ACAP, Khumbu permit), domestic flights to Lukla or Jomsom and high-altitude lodges weigh more heavily than urban accommodation. Conversely, extending your trip by a few days costs relatively little. We adjust each quote line by line, with no imposed package, so that spending matches your actual project.

Nepal requires expertise. Domestic flights shift with the weather, trekking permits evolve each season, and the quality of a journey often comes down to a detail: a guide who knows the best trail variant, a lodge run by a trusted family, an acclimatization day added in just the right place. Bluesheep Journeys operates from Kathmandu, in our Sama Marg offices, with an English-speaking team — Nirmala, Mingma, Sudarshan, Sitaram, Nilza — and a network of sherpa guides inherited from over thirty years of Himalayan adventure. Choosing a local agency in Nepal means dealing directly with those who walk these valleys, while maintaining the security of a booking coordinated from France through the Nomadays collective.

A Nepal circuit almost always begins in Kathmandu: Durbar Square, the Bodnath stupa at dusk, the ghats of Pashupatinath, then the gentle patina of Patan and Bhaktapur. In terms of mountains, the choice depends on your time and fitness level. The Annapurnas offer great landscape variety, from the sanctuary to the full circuit including the accessible viewpoints from Pokhara. The Khumbu leads to the Everest Base Camp, more demanding in altitude. For a different pace, Mustang or the Langtang Valley offer alternatives to well-trodden routes. To the south, the Terai and Chitwan National Park add rhinos, jungle, and Tharu villages. Finally, Lumbini, the birthplace of Buddha, extends your journey on the spiritual side.
