Essential Information

Best Time for 4 Days Nepal Tour

The best time for the 4 Days Kathmandu and Nagarkot Hill tour is during Nepal's two major tour seasons: autumn (September to November) and Spring (March to May).

Autumn (September to November)

Autumn is usually considered to be the best season to visit Nepal. These months have crystal clear weather and are generally very bright and blue. The modest temperature makes it ideal for sightseeing in Kathmandu Valley and for the sunrise view from Nagarkot. The clear skies ensure unobstructed views of the majestic Himalayan peaks, including Mount Everest.

This is high tourist season, and you will see many other travelers. You'll also find more animated markets and colorful cultural festivals, like Dashain and Tihar, which occur now.

Spring (March to May)

Another equally good time to visit Nepal is during spring. The weather remains clear, yet the temperatures are slightly warmer compared to autumn. The Kathmandu Valley is lush and green, with flowers all around, especially in the garden temples and heritage sites. This is an equally fabulous time of year to visit hill stations where the air is fresh and crisp, with colors alive in nature.

Winter (December to February)

While winter carves a chunk of cooler temperatures in Kathmandu and the surrounding areas, it is a unique time perfect for avoiding the crowds. Usually, the Kathmandu Valley remains mild, but the weather might be cold in Nagarkot and other viewpoints situated in the mountains, especially during the early morning hours. You will also have heritage sites to yourself since most tourists would find it too cold, and because of the dry air, mountain views are usually evident during this season.

Monsoon (June to August)

The monsoon season starts in June and generally lasts until the end of August. For Nepal, this means heavy rainfall. While the Kathmandu Valley does not usually see the heavy rainfalls common in other parts of Nepal, it is decidedly wet during these months. This makes it less ideal for outdoor sightseeing and hiking, particularly in the hill stations. However, this is also the season when the landscape is lush and green, adding to their varied beauty.
