Yak & Rhino
Two Worlds. One Journey. Unforgettable Contrast.
12-14 days
Introduction
Nepal is a land of extremes — from the towering peaks of the Himalayas to the steamy jungles of the lowland Terai. Our Yak & Rhino itinerary is designed to immerse you in both. Across two seamless weeks, this signature experience explores the high trails of the Sherpa heartland and the wild habitats of Chitwan National Park, offering insight into Nepal's most iconic landscapes, animals, and cultures. It's not just a journey between altitude and heat — it's a discovery of two entirely different worlds.
Your Journey
Kathmandu: Culture & Contrast
Begin and end in the vibrant capital, Kathmandu — a city layered in history, religion, and artistry. Wander ancient temple courtyards, visit UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and take in the lively markets, prayer wheels and rooftop cafés. It's a place where tradition hums in every street, and where your adventure begins in comfort and style.
Everest Foothills: Sherpa Life & High Trails
From Kathmandu, soar by private helicopter into the Everest region, touching down in a remote village nestled in the Solo Khumbu valley. Spend your days walking quiet ridgelines, visiting prayer flag-draped viewpoints, and learning about Sherpa traditions that have endured for centuries. Then, before your descent, take to the skies again — this time circling the vast amphitheatre of Everest and her giant sisters. It is a spectacle few will ever witness, and one you'll carry for a lifetime.
Chitwan: Jungle & Wildlife
After a short interlude in the capital, exchange altitude for canopy. We'll fly you directly into the jungle, where a private villa awaits inside the magnificent Chitwan National Park. Track rhinos, elephants, deer and sloth bears by jeep, guided by expert naturalists. Let tropical birds wake you each morning, and wind down each day with golden-hour drinks beside the river. Here, the only sounds are the calls of the wild and the rustle of leaves — a world away from Everest's alpine stillness.

Why It's Unique
Nowhere else can you sip tea at dawn in the shadow of the world's highest mountains, then watch rhinos roam at sunset beneath jungle skies. Yak & Rhino blends two of Nepal's most captivating realms — the stark beauty of the Himalaya and the lush, life-rich jungles of the Terai — into one seamless, deeply enriching journey. It's contrast, it's discovery, and it's adventure at its most refined.
Tailormade For You
Every detail of your journey is shaped around your pace, preferences and priorities. Whether you seek more time in the hills or longer moments with nature, we'll craft the route to match your rhythm. With private aviation, expert guidance, and handpicked lodges, this is not a package — it's a personal odyssey.
