“Not what I expected based on spa photo and description. Very average experience. This is not a spa but a Yoga retreat/school. There was not a lot of direction.”
Choose one two-hour massage at Real Therapy Spa in Thamel, from Ayurvedic and Swedish to deep tissue, Thai stretching, or hot stone. Your package also includes unlimited sauna, steam, Jacuzzi, tea, coffee, water, towels, and spa essentials. Private ladies’ and gents’ sections add comfort.
“Truly one of the best massages I have had!The hot tub/sauna and steam room added to already great experience.Highly recommend!”
You’ll hike with a private guide from Kathmandu to White Monastery and Swayambhunath, with city and mountain views along the way. After roughly six hours of gentle to moderate activity, enjoy a one-hour massage, steam room, sauna, green tea, and hotel drop-off. Guide Ravi has led this route for some visitors.
“I' have been using Saara Travel for years, and they do excellent service. I just give them the desired dates/times of flying/connection times and they take care of the rest, and I never had any inconvenience but comfortable trips for my family.”
You’ll be collected from your Kathmandu hotel or residence, then enjoy one hour of full-body massage followed by one hour of sauna and steam time. This private package includes return transport, organic green tea, and bottled water. Some spa areas are unisex, so plan accordingly.
“Parts of the spa were unisex spaces but we had a nice massage which helped us recover from two weeks of hiking”
You’ll spend about three hours at a Kathmandu retreat center with a 1 to 1.5-hour yoga lesson, a one-hour Swedish massage, and a 45-minute deep-cleanse pedicure. English instruction, hotel pickup, and return transport are included. No guide names are provided.
Spend about an hour at Avata Wellness Center in Kathmandu choosing from relaxing, aroma, remedial, Swedish, or foot and palm reflexology massage. Expect a private session, hot towel or shower afterward, unlimited herbal tea or detox water, and time to rest in the garden or cafe.
