Food, shopping & people
Eating & drinking in Nepal
Rakshi: they call it wine, but it’s more like homemade whisky and will blow your socks off. Ask a local resident and you’ll get pointed in the direction of the village distiller.Sukute = Dried buffalo fried in hot chillis, which you eat as a snack with your rakshi or a beer; beats peanuts.
Nepal’s national dish is ‘dal-baht’: soup of lentils and spices served over rice.
Jand is Nepali home-brewed beer. Kinder on you head than rakshi.

Nepal family vacation
A fabulous family vacation including the best of Nepal
This trip can be tailor made throughout the year to suit your requirements
People & language
Nepali is Nepal’s official language, but there are 123 languages spoken as mother tongue in Nepal.
Don’t greet people with a handshake or a hug, instead place your palms together, bow, and say ‘namaste’.
Gifts & Shopping
Prayer paraphernalia is everywhere in Nepal and is very pretty too; recreate your trip at home with prayer flags and a prayer wheel, which you spin to release prayers to heaven.Buy a Nepali national flag for your family and dazzle them with this flag fact: it’s the only flag in the world that’s not rectangular or square in shape.
Nepal is famous for its revered Gurkha soldiers and it’s a mark of respect to buy a Gurkha knife as a souvenir; just make sure you buy it from a recognised handicraft shop.
