Nepal celebrates over 50 major festivals each year, and attending one is the most immersive way to experience the country's living culture. Our festival tours time your visit to coincide with Nepal's most spectacular celebrations. Join the Holi Festival Tour to experience the exuberant "festival of colours" with locals in Kathmandu and Pokhara - throwing coloured powder, dancing in the streets, and sharing traditional sweets. Or time your visit for Tihar, the "festival of lights," when every home, temple, and street is illuminated with oil lamps and marigold garlands, and the Newari communities celebrate with music and feasting. Both tours include local family visits, cultural briefings, festival supplies, and guided access to the best celebration sites. Festivals run throughout the year, with the biggest celebrations during spring (Holi, Bisket Jatra) and autumn (Dashain, Tihar).
