    Best day of my life

    It was a really fun experience. As I am not a social person, I thought it would be a little awkward for me to attend this workshop or interact with a teacher or other students but everyone was very nice and easy to talk to. Making jewelry with everyone and getting to know each other. It was the best day for me.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much Oshin, we appreciate so much

    Nepalese food - how to make? Try it here!

    The Cooking class in Kathmandu is one of the programs offered by the Women empowerment project. It is an amazin experience because we can learn about the Nepali food, how to make the Nepal's most famous dish - the Momo and also their special Masala Chai recipe. The teacher and all her staff were very kind on gave us some knowlegde about nepalese food. And at the end, the best: we could taste the real nepalese Momo. I super recommended!!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much

    5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kathmandu.

    How much does 5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks cost?

    +

    Prices start at $200 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kathmandu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks take?

    +

    Plan for about 120 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kathmandu is not rushed.

    Is 5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 15 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kathmandu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 120-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks?

    +

    Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kathmandu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kathmandu and add a light layer if any part of the 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kathmandu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Kathmandu?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Kathmandu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kathmandu Sightseeing | UNESCO World Heritage sites Private/Group, Manaslu Circuit Trek, Manaslu Circuit Trek: Private Group & Discounte Price. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Kathmandu?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Kathmandu?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks?

    +

    Included: Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for 5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks?

    +

    You can follow google map to find us. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is 5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to 5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Kathmandu. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.

    What do travelers say about 5 Days Yoga meditation retreat with former Buddhist Monks?
