Get out of the city for a day and step into village life of the Kathmandu Valley, where your daily routine involves tending to the animals and crops, harvesting food for your family and producing goods to sell at the local market. We can see mustard seeds being pressed for their oil and other traditional farming techniques being used, depending on the season. We’ll stop along the way to help with harvesting the rice and plowing the fields and we’ll enjoy a local lunch, made from local village produce.
Feel the freedom of the roads, fresh village air in your hair and see the local side of the Kathmandu Valley, up close and personal via vintage Vespa!
