7-Day Kathmandu Valley Wellness Retreat & Heritage Tour

This seven-day retreat in the Kathmandu Valley is for you if you'd like to pair a steady yoga and meditation practice with time to explore one of the most storied corners of Nepal. You don't need to be an advanced practitioner. The programme is built around the idea that yoga and meditation can support health in ways that complement modern medicine, and each day includes multiple yoga, pranayama, and meditation sessions led by internationally certified teachers. That leaves plenty of time to get out and see the valley rather than spending every hour on the mat.

The practice itself runs through the whole week, with daily yoga, meditation, and pranayama classes. You'll move from an introductory session on arrival to sunrise yoga, singing bowl meditation, a yoga philosophy talk, and a closing gratitude circle towards the end. Alongside the practice, you'll visit ancient temples and monasteries, take nature walks with Himalayan views, and experience a traditional 60-minute Ayurvedic massage. Excursions include Kathmandu Durbar Square, Swayambhunath Stupa, Pashupatinath Temple and Boudhanath Stupa, Patan Durbar Square with its local craft workshops, and a day trip to Nagarkot for sunrise yoga and Himalayan views.

You'll be based in Kathmandu, in Nepal's Bagmati Province, staying at Hotel Tradition and Spa, a boutique property in the heart of Thamel. The hotel blends traditional Nepali art with modern comfort, offering cosy rooms, an on-site spa, and complimentary yoga sessions. Rooms are private, with air conditioning, ensuite bathrooms, and wifi, so you have a comfortable, quiet base to return to after a full day out in the valley.

A typical day begins early, with morning yoga and pranayama around 07:00, followed by breakfast at 09:00. Mid-morning is given over to an excursion or temple visit, with lunch around the middle of the day. Afternoons bring a mix of free time, spa or Ayurvedic treatments, nature walks, and gentler sessions such as meditation, sound healing, or a philosophy talk, before dinner at 19:00. The rhythm is active but unhurried, with room to rest and reflect built into the week. Meals are vegetarian and served buffet-style, featuring local Nepali dishes and fresh, organic ingredients, with tea, water, and juice available throughout the day. The hotel can cater to most dietary requirements with advance notice.

The 475 USD per person price covers six nights of accommodation and three daily meals, along with water, tea, and juice throughout the day and a welcome drink on arrival. Daily yoga, meditation, and pranayama classes are included, as are the group excursions and activities, a one-hour Ayurvedic massage, luggage storage, and wifi. Airport pickup and drop-off are both provided, so you'll be collected on arrival and returned at the end of your stay. You'll also have pre- and post-retreat support from the team, which is the right place to raise any injuries, health concerns, or dietary needs before you travel. Flights, travel insurance, visa fees, and any additional treatments or activities beyond the itinerary are not included.
