Pilgrimage Tours
A Vibedu venture
The sacred birthplace of the Buddha and its serene monastic gardens
Lumbini, in Nepal's southern Terai plains, is one of the most sacred sites in the Buddhist world — the place where Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha, was born. This UNESCO World Heritage Site centres on the Maya Devi temple and marker stone, surrounded by a vast, peaceful monastic zone where nations have built their own monasteries. Indian citizens need no visa for Nepal and can travel on a passport or Voter ID. Holiday Vibez arranges reflective, well-guided visits for pilgrims and culture lovers alike.
Reach Lumbini by road or a short flight to Bhairahawa. Evening at leisure near the sacred garden.
Visit the Maya Devi temple, sacred pond, Ashoka Pillar and the international monastic zone.
Optional early meditation, then transfer onward to Chitwan, Kathmandu or the airport.

Lumbini is one of the four great pilgrimage sites of Buddhism, alongside Bodh Gaya, Sarnath and Kushinagar. The tranquil monastic zone, laid out to a master plan, invites slow, contemplative walking between temples of many architectural traditions.
The core of a Lumbini visit includes:
Lumbini sits in the southern Terai, close to the Indian border. It is reachable by road from Chitwan or Pokhara, or via a short domestic flight to Bhairahawa (Gautam Buddha Airport). We plan the smoothest combination for your route.
Indians do not need a visa for Nepal. Enter on a valid Indian passport or Voter ID with no visa fee. Modest dress is appreciated at this sacred site, and shoes are removed at the Maya Devi temple.
October to March is the most comfortable, with cool, dry weather across the Terai plains. Summers before the monsoon can be very hot, so early-morning visits are best in warmer months.
Lumbini is a living pilgrimage site where monks, nuns and travellers from across Asia gather. Visitors often combine it with Indian Buddhist circuits, and the peaceful atmosphere makes it rewarding for anyone, faith or not.
Thousands of families and couples across South India have travelled with us — here's what a few of them had to say.
From the 30-minute callback to our private villa in Ubud, every little detail was handled. Our guide even arranged a surprise candle-lit dinner on the beach. Zero stress — pure magic.
Travelling with my parents and two kids, I was nervous. Holiday Vibez planned every single day perfectly, and the Alleppey houseboat was the highlight. We are already planning our next trip with them.
Best price I found anywhere, and the desert safari and Burj Khalifa tickets were all sorted before we even landed. The team was on WhatsApp whenever I had a question.
The Gulmarg gondola, the shikara ride on Dal Lake — exactly like the photos, no surprises at all. By the end of the trip our driver felt like family.
Booked a fairly last-minute Phuket trip and they still got me a great deal with visa help included. Honest, smooth and genuinely helpful people.
Scuba at Havelock was a dream come true. Every transfer and every hotel was exactly as promised. Worth every rupee, and I have already recommended them to friends.
