- AJohn· May 17th, 2019I'm a 66 year old grieving, recent widower wondering what life will hold in the future. This trip has been important, even the upsetting cremations at the Hindu Temple at Pashupatinath.
Explore! commented on this reviewthanks for your comments, I hope this trip was everything you needed it to be.Trip date: February 2018 - APhilippa· May 17th, 2019The trek was amazing and I would have liked another day �� the free day in Pokhara was appreciated perhaps a little less time in Kathmandu would be better. Great trip, enhanced by the guide, many thanksExplore! commented on this reviewthanks for your feedback :)Trip date: October 2018
- ABarbara· May 17th, 2019The trekking itself was too moderate for me. Of course, there is Annapurna Sancturay, which would be more challenging, but this trekking is 9 days, which makes you miss other aspects of nepal, which would be a pitty. So a tour with a not-so-many-days-trekking, that is more challenging would be great.Show moreExplore! commented on this reviewthanks for your feedback, we are continually reviewing our trips and creating new ones so keep an eye on our website :)Trip date: October 2018
