Experience a soulful Himalayan pilgrimage and scenic adventure on the Gonda to Muktinath Tour. This 6-night / 7-day package is designed for travellers who want a smooth overland start from Gonda, a spiritual stop at Lumbini, the lakeside charm of Pokhara, the Mustang-region gateway of Jomsom, and the sacred high-altitude shrine of Muktinath — revered by both Hindus and Buddhists. The itinerary balances comfortable transfers (road + short mountain flights), time for acclimatization and temple darshan, plus local sightseeing and cultural immersion.
