At the end of 2014, we made an incredible two week trip through Nepal. We booked our trip at the in Kathmandu based travel agency Earthbound Expeditions. It was not a problem to change the travel program to the way we liked it the most. Rajan, the director of Earthbound Expeditions, fully organized everything like guides, porters, transport, accommodation, etc. We spend the first couple of days in and around Kathmandu. We had a guided tour around all the landmarks of Kathmandu and we went to Nagarkot and Bakthapur. We eventually flied to Pokhara. The highlight of our trip was the 6 day trek through the Annapurna Region. The hikes were not particularly hard however, there were enough brakes at teahouses or viewpoints so that our youngest one (11 years old) could also keep up. Even when it got more difficult due to snow and ice, the enthusiastic guide Ramchandra Sapkota and the very friendly porters Padam, Kedar and … were very helpful and made sure nothing would happen to us. Ramchandra could tell us a lot about Nepal’s history, culture and nature. We spend the nights in lodges which provided us with all out basic needs like a warm welcome, a fireplace, good food, clean rooms, often even WIFI access and sometimes a hot shower. After the trek we traveled by bus to Chitwan National Park. Again the accommodation was perfectly organized. We spend 3 days with a guide in the jungle, either on foot, on an elephant, with a jeep or in a canoe. After this we flied back to Kathmandu to fly home from there.
