One-day walk Picked up and driven to Nagarkot, we then walked 7 km through the mixed landscape ( mostly downhill) to Nala. A great walk with our great guide Gopal. Highly recommend!

Amazing Experience! Earthbound Expeditions are amazing! My friend and I booked them for a Kathmandu Valley Tour, Nagarkot day hike and off-road downhill biking. Basically, we just gave them our dates and they came up with the itinerary. Their guides are so friendly. They really make sure you're enjoying and comfortable. Worth every dollar!

Amazing Nepal A big thankyou to Rajan and team for being fantastic hosts for our week in Nepal! Rajan, the owner, was very patient answering all of our questions when we were booking. Everyone was also really helpful and accommodating to anything we needed over the days. They made us feel comfortable throughout our stay, we never felt rushed or pressured to do anything. They were professionals and showed us not only the best of the Nepali sights but also the best of their culture and people. Fantastic driving by Manoosh, educational walks with clear explanations with Sunil (and introducing us to masala tea the 'Nepalese way'!) and a brilliant trek with Gopal from Nagarkot to Nala. A lovely traditional Nepalese dinner to end the trip with truly genuine hosts - Rajan and Sunil. We will be back in Nepal and definitely booking with EE again! :)

Wonderful Kailash Tour

September 2018, Tripadvisor

The only tour agency I'll ever use! Earthbound Expeditions exceeded mine and our tour groups expectations! They a delivered 5* service throughout our 20 days with them. From the very start, they gave of the best impressions, answering any questions we had quickly and clearly. We had a group of 24 that went on the Mt Kailash and Lake Manasarovar tour. Earthbound went above and beyond to organise a wonderful tour based on our wants and needs. Upon arrival in Nepal, we were greeted in a lovely manner and treated so well by all the Earthbound team. There's nothing about Earthbound I can fault. Accommodation was great, food was amazing and the Earthbound team, well they are spectacular. Some of the best people you'll have the pleasure of meeting! Each member of staff treats you like family, and after 20 days with them you end up becoming a family! That's the beauty of Earthbound Expeditions, they treat you how they would treat their families and that's what makes the trip an even more enjoyable one. Reaching Mt Kailash and Lake Manasarovar is no easy task. It's days of travelling, acclimatising and taking in breathtaking views! Rajan, Mr Earthbound himself, made the long journeys the most enjoyable ones. His endless jokes, knowledge and signing passed the time by. The entire team, like I said before were just amazing. If you're thinking of any Expeditions or treks in the near future, Earthbound Expeditions must be your go to! There is nothing I fault about this company. Everyone on our tour had the most amazing time and it's all down to how well Earthbound planned, organised and executed everything. Thank you Rajan, Arjun, Bharat, Kedar, Badri and all the other boys for an amazing, truly once in a lifetime trip!
