Rupse Holidays has announced that it will operate two additional chartered flights between Nepal and Vietnam to facilitate tourist exchange between the two countries.
While direct flights between Nepal and Vietnam have not yet commenced, the company is organizing chartered flights to bring groups of tourists from both nations. Previously, chartered flights were also arranged for similar purposes, and this year, two more flights are scheduled to connect Nepal and Vietnam right after the Dashain festival.
The upcoming chartered flights are planned for five days, starting from October 16 (30th Ashwin) immediately following the Dashain Tika. These flights will enable the exchange of tourists between Nepal and Vietnam.
Vietnamese tourists arriving in Nepal will have the opportunity to visit popular destinations such as Bhaktapur, Nagarkot, Kathmandu Durbar Square, Patan Durbar Square, Swyambhunath, and Boudhanath. Meanwhile, a five-day tour package has been prepared for Nepali tourists visiting Vietnam, focusing on tourist attractions in and around the capital city, Hanoi.
Given the lack of direct flights between Nepal and Vietnam, the chartered flights aim to provide a more cost-effective option for tourists compared to traveling via other countries. By facilitating two-way tourist exchange, the cost of flights is reduced, allowing for more affordable tour packages.
The tour package for the Vietnam visit is priced at NPR 109,999, which includes round-trip airfare, visa letter, airport pickup and drop-off, hotel accommodation with breakfast, local tour expenses, guide services, and transportation.
