The remote mountain Kingdom of Nepal contains more of the world's highest mountains than any other country and is dominated by the soaring snow-covered peaks of the Himalayas.

A Nepal holiday with Vanilla Sky is sure to get you closer to these fascinating cultural events, together with all the people and places that make Nepal unique. You will experience the unforgettable Vanilla Moments meeting the sunrise over the Annapurna range early in the morning and in the evening, boating at Phewa lake enjoying the sunset views.

Your Nepal trekking holiday can take in stunning Hindu and Buddhandist temples and pagodas, at their best in the capital Kathmandu. Alternatively, begin your Nepal trekking holiday in the North, where Pokhara is a gateway to the breathtaking Annapurna range where winding paths link rural villages and yak pastures.

A prominent factor in a Nepali's everyday life is religion. The Nepalese still follow age-old customs of Hindu and Buddhist religious practices. Adding colour to the lives of Nepalis are festivals the year round which they celebrate with much pomp and joy. It is said that Nepal has more festivals than there are days in a year.
