Overview
This superb, easy-paced trekking holiday has been recently refined and extended and provides the perfect introduction to the foothills of the Nepal Himalaya. We start out with a city sightseeing tour in Kathmandu, before flying on to Nepal's second city, Pokhara. Six days of trekking then take us to some of the prettiest villages in the valley of the Modi Khola, on the south side of the Annapurnas. Staying in comfortable and characterful lodges run by Mountain Lodges of Nepal (MLN), with twin-share rooms and en-suite facilities, we will be able to enjoy some of the most picturesque landscapes in Nepal.
Lush, green farmland, terraced fields, tumbling streams, smiling villagers and the backdrop of some of the world's great peaks, including Annapurna 1 and the stunning 'Fish Tail' peak of Machhapuchhre. Walking through rhododendron forest, with tree orchids, magnificent magnolias and several species of monkey, we will stay each night at a different lodge, each with its own particular charm, great food and outstanding views. Returning to Pokhara, we spend a night at a very comfortable resort hotel, before making the short drive to the Newari village of Bandipur. Famed for the quality of its architecture, which dates back several hundred years, this is a great place to spend a couple of nights, do some exploring, meet the Nepali people and soak up those final views of the Himalayas. The MLN Bandipur Lodge was formerly known as the 'Three Mountain Lodge' for good reason. Three of the world's 8000 metre peaks can be seen from our private balconies - Dhaulagiri, Annapurna and Manaslu. Using first class hotel accommodation in Kathmandu and the very best standard of lodges available on the south side of the Annapurnas, this really is a 'pampered' one week trekking holiday.
Is this holiday for you?
This trekking holiday starts out with 6 days of trekking in the foothills of the Annapurnas. Most days are relatively leisurely, but the second day, from Birethanti to Ghandruk, does involve a long and steady ascent of almost 1000 metres. There follows 3 further days of hiking in the Mahabharat Range on the south side of the Pokhara to Kathmandu highway. The trekking is generally neither difficult nor sustained; most days extend to no more than 4 hours (sometimes spread out over a longer day including stops and visits). Throughout, we will be following well-established and well maintained walking trails and the maximum elevation attained on the trip is around 2000 metres which is very low for a Nepal trekking holiday. We do not anticipate any problems with acclimatisation to the altitude. With upgraded accommodation each night, this is a relaxing trekking holiday eminently suitable for a first time visit to Nepal.
Why KE?
This is one of a number of KE holidays in Nepal where we have chosen to use a very good standard of hotel accommodation in Kathmandu (and in Pokhara) as well as arguably the very best standard of lodges available. Your experience of Himalayan foothills trekking can now be enhanced by the comfort of your overnight accommodation.

Day 9
Drive to Bandipur, village sightseeing and short trek to the Three Mountain Lodge (1011m).
Show Details
We will make a reasonably early start ahead of the 2-hour drive to the traditional Newari village of Bandipur which sits on a high ridge above the Pokhara to Kathmandu highway. When we get there we will take our lunch at the 'Old Inn' and here we will meet a local guide who will show us around the village. Bandipur grew up as a part of the Magar Kingdom of Tanahun and dates back several hundred years. It was once a staging post on a trade route between India and Tibet. With its 18th century architecture and narrow streets, it's a great place to spend a couple of hours. We will then set off on a short trek, which involves an initial descent into a valley where we find a mix of forest and farmland. There are several hamlets and schools along the trail and the final 40 minutes involve a steady climb to our overnight accommodation at the splendid Three Mountain Lodge. Situated on a ridge at a little over 1000 metres, the lodge command views of three 8000 metres peaks; Dhaulagiri, Annapurna I and Manaslu. After checking in, drinks will be served around the central fireplace. Later, dinner will be served in the dining room.

[title] => We trek across the valley of the Modi Khola to Landruk (1565m).
[introduction] =>
[description] => After enjoying a relaxing breakfast and the glorious views from the Himalaya Lodge, we start our trek to Landruk. After leaving the village of Ghandruk, the trail descends steeply to the banks of the Modi River. Here, we will be able to see some of the cliffs where the famed honey hunters of Nepal climb on ropes to raid the nests of the world's largest (and most dangerous) honey bees. We cross the river on a sturdy suspension bridge and from here trek up on a switchback trail to the village of Landruk. Here, we have more great views of the Annapurna range. After lunch at the MLN Landruk Lodge, our guide will take us on a sightseeing tour of this pretty mountain village.

[introduction] =>
[description] => This morning we start out trekking through the unspoilt village of Patlekhet. Our walk takes us through sub-tropical forests that include tree orchids, rhododendrons and magnolias. Along the way, we will stop at the village of Pothana where many Tibetan traders live and sell their souvenirs. Once again, we aim to reach our next lodge in time for lunch. Our accommodation for the night is at the small, but splendid MLN Dhampus Lodge, where we are treated to sweeping views of the entire Annapurna Range. After lunch at the lodge there will be an optional walk through the old village of Dhampus.

This spectacular flight offers views of the Langtang, Manaslu and Annapurna ranges. We are met on arrival at Pokhara Airport and taken by vehicle (1 hour) to the start of our walk. Together with our local trek crew, we then follow a trail through the lower foothills of the Annapurnas with surrounding views of the Pokhara Valley. Finally we descend to the very comfortable Mountain Lodges of Nepal (MLN) Birethanti Lodge in the valley of the Modi Khola. Lunch is at the lodge and there is the option in the afternoon to walk to the nearby village of Birenthanti (1025m). Alternatively, you can rest at the lodge and do a bit of local exploration and birdwatching.

[title] => Trek out to the road, return to Pokhara and overnight in a hotel.
[introduction] =>
[description] => After a leisurely breakfast at our lodge, we have a short downhill walk of about an hour and a half along a scenic ridge to the farmland and scattered houses of the broad Yangdi Khola Valley. Here, we meet the road and our waiting vehicle and make the 30-minute transfer to Pokhara. During this transfer, we have the option to stop at the Tibetan refugee camp, which has an interesting temple complex. Arriving in Pokhara, we check in at a very comfortable resort hotel. Situated on Phewa Tal, one of Nepal's largest lakes, Pokhara is a very laid-back city and its Lakeside district is vibrant with interesting shops cafes and bars, all with the sensational backdrop of the Annapurnas. After lunch the afternoon is free to explore this quite charming town. There is also the option to trek up to the 'Peace Stupa' for a birds-eye view over the lake, or to take a boat out onto the water. We return to the hotel in the evening for dinner.

[title] => A free day in Kathmandu.
[introduction] =>
[description] => One of the attractions of any visit to Nepal is the chance to walk the streets of Kathmandu, which present a fascinating mosaic of shops, cafes and restaurants, food markets and street vendors, as well as a bewildering array of colourful temples and shrines. Kathmandu is a very safe city (provided you watch out for the traffic) and exploring on your own is great fun. This evening we will get together again for a celebratory dinner to mark the end of a most excellent trip.

[title] => A day at the Three Mountain Lodge, with optional walks.
[introduction] =>
[description] => We will be woken with a cup of tea or coffee in our rooms. If the mountains are clear, we can sit on our private verandas and enjoy the spectacular views of Dhaulagiri, Annapurna I and Makalu. Then, after breakfast, we will set off on a short walk amongst orange trees to visit 2 local schools. As an alternative, we can walk to a higher viewpoint peak from where the panorama of mountains to the north is even more impressive and we also have views southwards towards Chitwan and the Terai. We will return to the lodge for lunch and then go out with the guide again to visit a couple of local villages, where we may be able to meet retired Gurkhas . This area has been little visited and retains much of its charm. We return to spend a second night at the Three Mountain Lodge.

[title] => Trek to the Himalaya Lodge in Ghandruk (2012m).
[introduction] =>
[description] => After breakfast, we leave the lodge and walk out through farmland and scattered small farms, following the course of the Modi Khola, which is the river flowing down from the Annapurna Sanctuary. We follow the river's true right bank, heading generally northwards and with the impressive sacred peak of Machhapuchhre (Fish Tail) ahead of us. Soon we begin to climb out of the valley and up towards the mountains. The trail passes through small hamlets, terraced rice fields and forests with spectacular views of the surrounding valley. Snacks are provided along the trail. We arrive at the Himalaya Lodge in the early afternoon and a hot lunch is served on arrival. There are fantastic views from the lodge of the arrayed peaks of the Annapurna Massif.

[introduction] =>
[description] => Leaving Landruk and the valley of the Modi Khola, today's walk contours the valley-side to the east and heads south, with fairly minor undulations, passing through picturesque villages and farmland with great views looking back to the Annapurnas. We will reach the MLN Majgaon Lodge in time for lunch. The lodge is built to resemble a traditional Nepalese village and every room has spectacular views of the surrounding valley and mountains. The afternoon can be spent in the lodge gardens or we can opt to do some exploration to nearby villages with our guide.

[title] => Drive to Bandipur, village sightseeing and short trek to the Three Mountain Lodge (1011m).
[introduction] =>
[description] => We will make a reasonably early start ahead of the 2-hour drive to the traditional Newari village of Bandipur which sits on a high ridge above the Pokhara to Kathmandu highway. When we get there we will take our lunch at the 'Old Inn' and here we will meet a local guide who will show us around the village. Bandipur grew up as a part of the Magar Kingdom of Tanahun and dates back several hundred years. It was once a staging post on a trade route between India and Tibet. With its 18th century architecture and narrow streets, it's a great place to spend a couple of hours. We will then set off on a short trek, which involves an initial descent into a valley where we find a mix of forest and farmland. There are several hamlets and schools along the trail and the final 40 minutes involve a steady climb to our overnight accommodation at the splendid Three Mountain Lodge. Situated on a ridge at a little over 1000 metres, the lodge command views of three 8000 metres peaks; Dhaulagiri, Annapurna I and Manaslu. After checking in, drinks will be served around the central fireplace. Later, dinner will be served in the dining room.

Joining Arrangements & Transfers
The group will meet at the hotel in Kathmandu.
Transfers are provided from/to Kathmandu Airport for all clients arriving on Day 1 of the Land Only itinerary and departing on the last day of the Land Only itinerary.
Hotel contact details and an emergency number will be provided with your booking confirmation.
Meal Plan
All meals outside of Kathmandu are included. Breakfasts and the first night and last night dinners in Kathmandu are also included.
Food & Water
Drinking Water
It is not recommended to drink untreated water from the taps. If you are on a trekking or cycling holiday, water is supplied to fill up your individual bottles. This will be boiled, filtered or provided in large jerry cans or 5 litre bottles. Additionally you should take purification tablets or a filter bottle (such as a Water-To-Go bottle) to treat your water when in towns or where water is not supplied. We do not encourage the purchasing of single use plastic bottles.
Throughout this trip there will be the opportunity to sample local cuisine, but there will always be an option for more familiar international dishes. All the lodges on this trek have first class chefs and food is prepared to the highest quality. In Kathmandu and in Pokhara, the cities' restaurants are internationally known and it is possible to find restaurants and food items from almost every cuisine in the world.
Special Diets
Whilst we can cater for vegetarians, albeit sometimes with a more limited choice, we cannot always provide for special diets. Due to the nature of some of the trips that we operate and the countries in which we operate them, it can be very hard (and sometimes impossible) to cater for a wide range of dietary choices and you may have to supplement your meals with food/snacks from home. If you have specific dietary requirements please do speak to our sales team and they will be able to advise you whether or not we will be able to offer your specific choice. Please note that we are unable to provide separate menus and cannot accept liability for any problems arising from special dietary requirements or intolerances.
Accommodation
Whilst in Kathmandu the group will stay in 5-star luxury at the renowned Yak and Yeti Hotel which offers a range of first-class facilities including a fitness centre, luxury spa and swimming pool. The Yak and Yeti will assure you of a restful start and finish to your time in Nepal. There is also a night at the excellent Barahi Hotel in Pokhara. Each night on trek we will stay in one of the very pleasant lodges run by Mountain Lodges of Nepal (formerly Ker and Downey properties) which offer comfortable twin or double rooms with attached bathroom and hot and cold running water. All accommodation is on a twin sharing basis. If you are travelling by yourself you will be paired up with another single client of the same sex. Depending on availability, single rooms can be requested at a supplementary cost. Additional hotel nights in Kathmandu can also be arranged.
Internal flights
Internal Flights
Access to the high and remote areas of the Himalaya where our treks start is often only possible using internal flights. The changeable nature of mountain weather makes flying conditions complex. In addition the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal does not operate to the same standards as those of western nations and all airlines in Nepal appear on the European Commission’s list of airlines that are banned from flying into EU member states. Flying in Nepal is an acknowledged risk, and the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office travel advice provides further details which you can read on their website at: www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/nepal/safety-and-security. KE is mindful of its duty of care to clients travelling with us in Nepal and we were stakeholders in a recent independent air audit of Nepal airlines undertaken by UK tour operators during 2013. KE uses only three airlines in Nepal which were approved by this audit as safe carriers. These airlines are: Yeti Airlines, Tara Air and Buddha Air. We continue to cooperate with other tour operators to monitor aviation safety in Nepal and will ensure we remain a stakeholder in any further air safety audits. While we have taken appropriate action to try to minimise the risks of flying in Nepal, you should be aware that flying in mountainous terrain is not without any risk.
Group Leader & Support Staff
The group will be led by a professional and qualified Nepalese tour leader, assisted by an experienced team including Sherpa guides and porters.
Altitude
The altitudes on this holiday are not extreme and the maximum altitude attained is no more than the equivalent of a pressurised cabin on an international flight. You may ‘feel’ the altitude the first time you trek above 2000 metres but all that is required is a slower pace to compensate. You should pay particular attention to your hydration levels while trekking above 2000 metres.
Spending Money
Approximately £200 (or equivalent in US dollars, Euros etc.) should be allowed for miscellaneous expenses including porter and trek crew tips, beer, soft drinks etc. It is not necessary to obtain local currency prior to departure. Sterling, US Dollars and Euros are equally acceptable for exchange in Nepal. Please note: Scottish and Northern Ireland bank notes are not accepted in Nepal. We recommend that you carry your travel money in the form of cash, since you will exchange the majority of this on the day of your arrival in Kathmandu. If you prefer not to carry all of your spending money in cash, it is possible to withdraw money from ATMs in Kathmandu using your debit or credit card. During the trek it is possible to buy snacks, chocolate, soft drinks and beer on most days.
Guidance on Tipping
Tipping is the accepted way of saying thank you for good service. Normally the porters and any other trek staff are given their tips at the end of the trek and this is best done as a group. Your Nepali tour leader will advise the group on an appropriate level of tipping. Most groups will hand out the tips with a bit of ceremony (or sometimes a party) on the last evening, to mark the end of the holiday. As a guide, we recommend that each group member contributes around £70 (in rupees) to these tips. At the end of their trek many people also like to donate various items of equipment to the porters and trek staff who work so hard to make the trip a success. Boots, gloves, hats, scarves and even socks are always warmly received by the porters. Your tour leader will make arrangements for a fair distribution (possibly by raffle) amongst the trek crew. Please note that you will have the opportunity to tip your tour leader separately (and additionally) during dinner on the final evening of the holiday.
Beat the Jet Lag
Our holidays are normally designed with minimal 'down time' at the start of the trip, but having a day or two at the beginning will have the additional benefit of allowing you time to get over the stress of a long journey or travelling across time zones, leaving you refreshed and ready for your holiday. We can easily arrange for you to have additional nights and airport transfers.
Baggage Allowance
Your main item of luggage should be a sturdy kit bag, duffle bag or similar. This will be carried during the trek by porters or pack animals and must weigh no more than 15kg. You should also take on your holiday a daypack of approximately 30 litres capacity. It is possible to leave items not required on trek at the hotel in Kathmandu. For your international flights, please check the baggage allowance with your airline.
Group Size & Holiday Status
For each holiday there is a minimum number of participants required to enable it to go ahead. Once the minimum number is reached, the trip status will change from 'Available' to 'Guaranteed to run'. You can check the trip status for each departure in the ‘Dates and Prices’ table. Other than in exceptional circumstances, we will not cancel a trip once it has achieved this guaranteed to run status so you are free to proceed with your international flight booking and other travel arrangements.
Passport & Visas
The information that we provide is for UK passport holders.
A passport with 6 months remaining validity at the end of your stay is generally required, and you should have at least 2 blank pages for each country that you visit.
For other nationalities, please refer to your own Government website for the latest information.
It is your responsibility to ensure that you have the correct travel documents including vaccinations and health certificates (see Health & Vaccinations below), and visas for your holiday. Please ensure that you check the FCDO for the latest advice for each country visited before travel.
Visa Nepal
All nationalities require a visa. The visa process is partly automated and the fee is $30 for 15 days, $50 for 30 days, $125 for 90 days. The visa is FREE for children under 10 years. The visa allows multiple re-entry. Payment must be made in cash and USD, GBP or Euros are accepted.
Part of this on-arrival visa process involves filling in a ‘Tourist Visa Application Form’ and you can simplify the procedure at Kathmandu Airport by filling this form in online (within 15 days of travelling) at this link. This generates a receipt which you present (hard copy or saved on your phone) on arrival. This should allow you to go straight to the cashier to pay for your visa and has the potential to save you time in the visa queue.
Whilst these are not now needed for the visa process, we recommend that you travel with at least 2 spare passport photographs.
If you are travelling via India (Delhi or Calcutta) to your destination you may also require a visa for India. This may apply even if you are not leaving the airport unless your baggage has been checked all the way through to your destination. Generally, if you use the same carrier for both legs of your journey, you will not need an India Visa. Please download the detailed information document: Visa PDF India.
TREKKING PERMITS – WHAT DO WE NEED FROM YOU ?
For treks in the Everest region – EBL, EVL, EHW, ELL - we need your passport details and we need you to take with you to Nepal 2 passport photographs. You will hand these over to your local leader on Day 1.
For treks in the Annapurna region – ASL, ACL, UAT, ANL and for the Gosainkund and Langtang Trek - GLT – we need your passport details and we need to send through to Nepal ahead of your departure a scan of a passport-style photograph of yourself. Please send this to us once your holiday is guaranteed.
For these Conservation Area treks and other treks requiring Special Permits – KAN, DLG, NAP – we need to send through to Nepal ahead of your departure a scan of a passport-style photograph of yourself and a scan of the information pages of your passport. Please send these to us once your holiday is guaranteed. On arrival in Kathmandu you will still be required to provide your passport (with your visa) for presentation at the Nepal Tourism Board. Your passport will be returned to you by your tour leader at dinner.
For those trips requiring Climbing Permits – MER, IPC, CTL, YAR - we need to send to Nepal ahead of your departure, a scan of a passport-style photograph of yourself and a scan of the information pages of your passport. Please send these to us once your holiday is guaranteed. On arrival in Kathmandu, for YAR and for CTL, you will still be required to provide your passport (with your visa) for presentation at the Nepal Tourism Board. Your passport will be returned to you by your tour leader at dinner.
Health & Vaccinations
Vaccinations
You should contact your doctor or travel clinic to check whether you require any specific vaccinations or other preventive measures. On holidays to more remote areas you should also have a dentist check up. You should be up to date with routine courses and boosters as recommended in the UK e.g. diphtheria-tetanus-polio and measles-mumps-rubella, along with hepatitis A and typhoid. In addition you should check whether any specific vaccinations are needed to the regions that you are travelling to. A good online resource is Travel Health Pro.
Malaria
Malarial prophylaxis is not usually required for trips in the mountains, however if you are visiting rural and remote low lying areas then they might be necessary.
Dengue Fever
Dengue fever is a known risk in places visited. It is a tropical viral disease spread by daytime biting mosquitoes. There is currently no vaccine or prophylaxis available and therefore the best form of prevention is to avoid being bitten. We recommend you take precautions to avoid mosquito bites.
Severe Allergies
If you have a severe allergy please inform the KE office before you travel. We will do all we can to help, but we cannot guarantee an allergy free environment on KE trips. You will need to carry your own treatment for the allergy with you, as 'adrenaline auto-injectors' are not carried as standard by KE leaders and staff. You should inform your leader on arrival of your allergy, and let them know where you keep your adrenaline pen.
Currency
The unit of currency in Nepal is the Nepalese Rupee.
Preparing for your Holiday
It makes a lot of sense to spend some time before coming on an active holiday getting some additional exercise. The fitter you are, after all, the more enjoyable you will find the experience. Although the trekking on this trip is not difficult or sustained, hiking at even moderately high altitude is more tiring than at lower elevations. We suggest that you adopt a weekly exercise regime leading up to your trip. Regular hiking in hill country is the best training but any regular exercise such as jogging or swimming is also good for developing cardio vascular fitness and stamina. Before coming on the trip we recommend that you make time for some longer walks in hilly country. It is also a good idea to do some reading about the culture of Nepal. There are many books on this subject and some are listed below.
Climate
Whilst October to November and March to May have traditionally been considered to be the best times to visit Nepal (either side of the monsoon and neither too hot nor too cold), these seasons can comfortably be extended to include the period from December to February for holidays which do not trek to the really high altitudes. Pre-monsoon (February to May) the best of Nepal’s colourful flora is in evidence, with plants such as rhododendron and magnolia in full flower. This is also the main climbing season for the 8000 metre peaks. The post-monsoon months (October onwards) usually offer the clearest skies and the most settled weather. Temperatures in Kathmandu and during the trekking will range from around 18 or 19 degrees Celsius in December/February to between 22 and 27 degrees Celsius in April/May and September/October. In Pokhara is will be a couple of degrees warmer than this. Outside of the summer monsoon, this part of Nepal receives very little rainfall but mountains do produce their own localised weather and short-lived storms cannot be ruled out at any time of the year.
Travel Aware
As a reputable tour operator, KE supports the British Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office's ‘Travel Aware’ campaign to enable British citizens to prepare for their journeys overseas. The 'Travel Aware' website provides a single, authoritative source of advice for all kinds of travellers and we recommend that before travel, all KE clients visit the official UK Government website at travelaware.campaign.gov.uk and read the FCDO Travel Advice for their chosen destination. North Americans can also check out the U.S. Department of State website: www.travel.state.gov for essential travel advice and tips.
KE treat the safety and security of all clients as the most important aspect of any trip we organise. We would not run any trip that we did not consider reasonably safe. Should the FCDO advise against travel for any reason, we will contact everyone booked to travel to discuss the situation. We receive regular updates directly from the FCDO and are in constant touch with our contacts on the ground. If you have any questions about government travel advice, please call our office.
Single Use Plastic
KE do not encourage the use of single use plastic items. We are ensuring that our agents all over the world are working together to reduce the problem and educate those around them. We are leading by example in our KE office by reducing our plastic use.

Annapurna Adventure Trekking Map - 1:125,000
Nowadays the best maps of Nepal tend to be produced in Nepal. This map is a collaboration between the Nepal publishers ‘Nepa’ and National Geographic. It covers the whole of the Annapurnas plus Pokhara. This is an excellent map, although the scale at 1:125,000 does not provide quite enough detail.

Equipment List
The following checklist should help you with your packing. As a general rule, you should always try to keep the weight of your equipment to a minimum. The packed weight of your kit bag while trekking should be no more than 15 kgs.
You must bring the following items:
- Hiking boots
- Trekking trousers
- Baselayer shirts
- Casual shirt and/or T-shirts
- Fleece jacket or warm jumper
- Waterproof jacket
- Sunglasses
- Water purification tablets
- Headtorch and spare batteries
- Sun protection (including total bloc for lips, nose etc.)
- Washbag and toiletries
- Antibacterial handwash
- Toilet paper (you can also buy this in the lodges)
- Small padlock (to lock your kit bag)
- Small daypack 20-25 litres
- Basic First Aid Kit including plasters, blister treatment, aspirin etc.
The following items are optional:
- Shorts
- Swimwear (for hotel pools)
- Travel clothes
- Trekking poles - see note below
- Warm (down) jacket - see note below
- Camera
- Pen-knife (remember to pack sharp objects in hold baggage)
- Repair kit – (eg. needle, thread, duct tape)
- Reusable cloth bag for shopping (to avoid plastic bags)
Notes
You do not need a sleeping bag. Bedding is provided at the lodges.
Before setting off on trek the lodge company - Mountain Lodges of Nepal - will provide some items of gear including a trekking pole, water bottle, rain poncho, hat and scarf. The first 3 of these items you will be required to return at the end of the trip. The hat and scarf you can keep as souvenirs. Additionally, in your room at each of the lodges, you will find other items of gear including down jackets (one size only – large or extra large) which you can use during your stay at that lodge.
The Nepalese can still be traditional and conservative in the way they dress. Therefore, to avoid embarrassment on both sides, we recommend that you respect this and do not wear revealing clothing or sleeveless tops while visiting Nepal. Shorts are acceptable, but they should reach to just above the knee and be modest and for women it is preferable to wear trousers or a long skirt.

Reviews
Definitely one of our best holidays
Reliable well organised reasonable price. Our guide Prem was very knowledgeable and helpful all the time. He knows everything about Nepal!
Amazing Nepal
Well it was an amazing experience!
We had a lovely time- there were only four of us on the trip but we got on really well and had a lot of laughs.
Our guide, Pasang, really made the holiday for us- he was brilliant. Professional, kind, helpful, informative,thoughtful and kind, he really was an excellent guide. Our porters MB and RB were brilliant too, nothing was too much trouble for them.
The walking was lovely - the days to Landruk and Ghandruk were quite challenging, and all the steps ... are really hard on the old knees!
The lodges were generally very good - we had plentiful food, and usually had warm water! The lodges supplied down jackets, hats and gloves, these were very useful on the cool mornings and evenings. I was surprised at how much European food we were given however- thankfully Pasang started arranging more dal bhats for us as the trip went on.
We did eat an awful lot- don't expect (or even hope) to lose weight on this trip!!!
We saw so much and there were so many highlights - the mountain views, the dal bhats, the lovely walks (even the leech bites didn't spoil out walks), learning about Nepal and Nepali culture. The people were so lovely and helpful and kind everywhere we went.
The trip from Bandipur to Kathmandu wasn't a highlight though- it was a seven hour journey on mostly unmade roads- I would certainly recommend taking some travel sickness medication for this long and uncomfortable journey.
Kathmandu is very polluted, if you have any respiratory problems I would definitely suggest you wear a mask when walking about. There is a brilliant massage service just outside the yak and yeti hotel, they do a great trekkers massage - I would highly recommend this to anyone.
Our flight was delayed by ten hours then cancelled (causing a 34.5 hour delay to the journey), but Pasang came and got us from the airport, and took us to his house for tea before returning us to the hotel. That was really enjoyable, and an interesting insight to his life. Thank you so much for this Pasang , it was much appreciated.

All tied in perfectly, only the weather had a bit of a hand in slight disruption
All the pick-ups and meetings by the local transport and personnel went like clockwork. Brilliant! The weather was the only midge (smaller than a fly) in the ointment. Our flight to Pokhara got delayed by a day due to fog and would have been more but we opted to drive on the second day arriving at Biretanthi lodge one day late. From here everything ran smoothly. Unfortunately we didn't get all the spectacular views, which is a risk you take in the pre-monsoon season, but we did get some superb

views. Absolutely super trip with nearly 2000 photos in the camera. The Chitwan extension exceeded expectations and added a huge number to the aforementioned photos. If you don't like walking up steps all day, which vary in height and depth, which I don't, you'll find it hard going because you can't get a pace and rhythm. 1000 metres up to Ghandruk on our first day with steps most of the way. I was the slowest in the group but the guide and one of the porters stayed with me all the time.
Fantastic trip

WOW!
This was my first trek (other than the odd day trip in the Peak District) and it was a fantastic experience and I won't forget it any time soon. Qatar Airways was superb - old-fashioned charm and service. The people (staff and people we met in general) in Nepal could not have been more helpful and friendly. The luxury lodges were good as was the food. My favourite meal was in Pokhara where we had the tradition Dhal Bhat which was served on delightful brass plates/ dishes. I was served more

carbohydrates than I'm used to - but that was because of the daily trekking and the body's requirements - so it's best to 'go with the flow'. We had an excellent guide - Rabi Gurung, who helped me enormously and he went the extra mile for our group to make sure that all our needs were catered for. His English was very good and he kept us entertained with his superb knowledge of the mountains, flora and fauna and delightful stories during 'happy hour'. A charming and conscientious guide who is proud of Nepal and was keen to share his knowledge. Do add an hour here and there to the daily trekking timings and the road trip from Bandipur to Kathmandu took us 6.5 hours. Overall the itinerary was good and seemed to have been carefully thought out. A superb trekking holiday with creature comforts which I would recommend to anyone.
