Nepal 11-Day Tours & Itineraries

Explore 12 trips designed by local kimkim specialists to get ideas for your trip to Nepal.

With 11 days in Nepal, there are plenty of options for solid 7-9 day treks in the Himalaya, or travelers can mix and match regions for a more varied experience. You might combine two classic Nepal experiences: the Ghandruk teahouse trek in the Annapurna foothills and a few days in wildlife-rich Chitwan National Park (rhinos, toucans, and elephants abound). For something different, try our luxury expedition that combines trekking with yoga and meditation—you'll walk the Tibetan kora at Boudhanath Stupa and see the sunrise on Annapurna South and Machhapuchhre.

The Langtang Valley has long been a favorite trek due to its expansive views, interesting Tamang culture, relatively gentle pace and accessibility from Kathmandu. The 2015 earthquake and subsequent landslide had an enormous effect on the region, but aid and reconstruction have recently reopened this valley to trekking again. Not only is it still a beautiful trek, your visit will also provide vital support for local livelihoods.
