Nepal
Nepal is the Himalaya at full scale, but it is also Kathmandu's temple courtyards, Newari feasts, and jungle lowlands where rhinos outnumber tourists. The mountains keep two windows — the crystalline weeks after the monsoon and the rhododendron spring — and we hold clients to them, because the peaks you came for should actually be visible.
