Nepal Travel Information

A leader's perspective...

It hits you within moments of arriving in Nepal - an overwhelming sense of friendship, history, community and spirituality. Nepal is a complex and compelling country and it´s impossible to overcome the excitement of actually being there. From the colourful and chaotic streets of Kathmandu to the hilltop village of Bandipur or the laid-back lakeside town of Pokhara, you quickly become a willing participant in local life. Taking time to chat with roadside chai sellers, sharing a joke with a taxi driver and exchanging smiles while bartering for a bargain are all part of the Nepalese charm. You don´t have to trek Nepal to discover its natural beauty, but hiking the Himalayas is a stunning highlight for most who muster the energy. Nepal gives you the precious opportunity to discover a world beyond your own.

Room with a Himalayan view

In the village of Bandipur, perched high on a ridge on the road to Pokhara, few would ever leave the main road to venture into the surrounding hills - but there is a pot of gold at the end of this rainbow. Intrepid groups have the privilege of spending a night in a Bandipur guesthouse that boasts the most wonderful views over an orange grove to the surrounding Himalayas. The whole place oozes with traditional local charm and character, but if you can drag yourself away from the delightful terrace and the warm and welcoming lounge room or you need to walk off a delicious Nepalese meal, then be sure to take a wander down to the well.
