MUSIC, ARTS, ADVENTURES TOURS OF NEPAL
What People are Saying About Our Tours!
"The mix of activities and experiences are something a solo traveler or group going alone would have no way to put together themselves. The connections made with all the people as a whole will remain with me forever. It was awesome and I want to go back. Thank you so much for putting together an amazing experience."
Mike Shade
"The Kathmandu Valley is more enchanting than I could ever have imagined! Tara and Ian escorted us into the world of Buddhist and Hindu culture, master woodcarvers, musicians, and festivals that are a apart of everyday life in Nepal, things that the ordinary tourist would never get to see. The magic I experienced continues to unfold for me long after returning home."
Sherry Stewart
Do it! It’s the best vacation I’ve ever had!
Nancy Truax
The most amazing, rewarding, emotionally stimulating, sensory experiencing, musically awakening 3 weeks you could ever have in this world that still exists in a place between the folds of time
Keith Alex
"I felt that I got to see a more authentic side of Nepal than I would have on our own or in a larger tour. The views were stunning! This trip was a big bang for the buck considering all that was included!"
Julie L.
It was the trip of a lifetime for me!
Dave Marcus
"Meeting such a wide-ranging group of Nepalis was the highlight for me – everything from cultural academics to local artisans to impoverished children with big smiles.
David P.
"Anyone can take you on a canned tour, but Tara took us took us off the beaten path to meet real people and see real lives. I loved it!"
Evan Sands
"I consider myself fairly well traveled. And normally, I don’t go on group trips. But this very unusual trip to Nepal, masterfully organized and conducted by Tara and Ian, was very special. My husband and I went in March 2024. I had the opportunity to meet so many artisans, dancers, and musicians (both in our group and the Nepali musicians). And the kindness of the people we met, even just strangers on the street, was uniquely welcoming. This trip was so much more than just a tour. It was eye-opening and life-changing. As soon as I returned home from this trip, I was considering yet another. "

Gay Henderson
"I keep telling everyone I know how awesome the experience was and recommending that they should do it! Tara and Ian really know how to organize and execute a fantastic tour! Every day was a new and exciting adventure! It's hard to pick a favorite thing , but I loved the artists and crafts people, the music, the kids, the food... Oh and all the new friends I made near and far!"
Stephanie Thompson
"Tara’s Tour was really good value for the money. Loved it."
David P.
I don't usually do group tours for travel. But on this trip I did not feel so much like I was on a group tour as much as a fun trip and adventure with friends, even though I didn't even know most of the people on our trip until I got to Nepal. I loved it."
Zondra Skertich
"Tara's extensive knowledge of the language, culture, and layout in Nepal, along with her real connections to the people there, made the tour an easy, relaxed journey where we could just have fun and enjoy our time there. A fantastic trip I'd definitely do again!"
Lisa Kay Howard
This trip is welcoming to musicians and non-musicians alike. A once in a lifetime experience.

Carolyn Schiff
"My search for Buddhism made sense in Nepal."
Gay Henderson
"Our trip to Nepal with Tara Linhardt and Music Arts Adventures was absolutely wonderful! It was exactly what we were hoping for - getting to know the real people of Nepal, playing music together, making friends, and visiting the common homes of the people and watching them make their art - paper, pottery, woodcarvings , etc. I loved watching the children dance and then dancing with them (even though we were nowhere close to dancing well lol). I loved walking through the streets with the children and talking to them. I loved feeling the spirit of the people through their kindness and religion. It was all wonderful and the views were beautiful. Thank you Tara - from the bottom of my heart! "
Phyllis Dodd
"This trip changed my entire outlook on life when I went in early 2020. Highly recommended.
Tara puts together a great itinerary!"
Mike Shade
"If you have even thought about visiting Nepal, you should go with Tara Linhardt on this trip. It is a fabulous tour and you will learn and experience so much. We went in 2020, right before the pandemic, and it is a life-changer!"
Jefferson Glassie
"Tara is full of anticipatory guidance for a fun and safe Music Arts Adventure, from pre-trip to post-trip and every part in between. This is what she does and she is good at it!! She knows the locals and the venues for music, arts and adventure. She is well-loved by the Nepalis wherever she goes and you are happy to be in her care. See for yourself why Nepal is called Never Ending Peace And Love! Treat yourself to a Music Arts Adventure with Tara and Ian!!"
Kathleen McClelland
"My March 2024 tour to Nepal with Tara and Ian was absolutely the BEST EVER. I had always wanted to visit Nepal, and they were the perfect guides. NEPAL has been described as Never Ending Peace And Love. And that is so true. Everywhere we went … guest houses, cafes, shops, historic sites, mountain treks … we were always graciously welcomed and surrounded in beauty, history, music, art, fabulous food, unbelievable views. And Tara, Ian and their Nepal guides made every stop on the trip easy, comfortable and memorable. I fell in love with Nepal and hope to return again. Give yourself the once-in-a-lifetime gift of this adventure. You won’t be disappointed."

One of our clients wrote a fantastic 3 page article about how much fun he had on one of our tours. If you care to read the article it is in the April 2025 Conde Nast Traveler magazine pages 46-48. Here is a direct link to read the article. http://bit.ly/425NKmw
Here is one of our clients who did our Culture Tour and then our Trekking Extension followed by some of our tutorials that we offer and enjoyed it all so much that they decided to write a song about it. Thanks so much to Tiv Hay-Rubin for both joining our tours and also for the wonderful song and clawhammer banjo playing.
