During the Nepal tour from February 18 to March 10, 2012 Mr. Flemming, Ms. Johanneson Connie and Ms. Koch Henriette from Denmark not only trekked to the grand Himalayan sites of the Everest region, they also enjoyed 3 and half free days at Kathmandu to rejoice their huge achievement of successfully making to the Everest Base Camp and the  several celebrated sites of the region.

The Danish visitors through our exclusive country partner Kipling Travel also had a concise sightseeing tour of Kathmandu city before their departure to their trekking expedition to the Everest Base Camp. The cultural tour of Kathmandu city refers to come across the numerous shrines and monuments almost at every corner of the city. Kathmandu is a heritage city, where in the good old days number of temples and monasteries equalled the number of houses in the city and the deities within them equalled the number of people in the city.

The trek began at Lukla on February 20. Their trek covered most of the eminent sites of the Everest region. The Sherpa capital Namche, home of Hillary Hospital Khumjung, sacred Gompa at Pangboche,Ama Dablam Base Camp, excellent view-point for Everest and other Himalayan giants; Gorakshep, the highest altitude cabinet meeting point; Kalapattar and the base of mighty Everest the Everest Base Camp.

After the two weeks long time spent at Himalayas which was very well planned for abundant acclimatization and exploration, the Danish visitors had the worthy memories captured in their cameras and brains. They were enjoying their free days at Thamel Kathmandu however, the beauties along the trial during the trek to Everest Base Camp was still in their eyes.

They finally made the exodus back home on March 10,2012 with loads of the most beautiful experiences and spell-bounding encounters in this Himalayan nation.

Posted Jul 8th, 2012 under Company News, Interviews,

Frank Mayes, along with his family, explored the scenic and cultural hotspots of Kathmandu and Pokhara recently. The Mayes family (from USA )had actually planned to visit Everest Base Camp in Tibet but had to scrap their plans due to permit issues. As an alternative tour, the Mayes family enjoyed a cultural and scenic extravaganza to Nepal’s tourist hotspots Kathmandu and Pokhara. Before their departure, EH met up with Frank Mayes . Here’s his feedback:

EH: How was your tour?

Frank Mayes: Overall we had a very good and enjoyable time. We liked the people we met and the guide.

Tingri to Everest Base camp trek

Posted Apr 30th, 2012 under Trip Report,

Two trekkers Moshe Kozlovski and Drora Levi Kozlovski from Israel planned to do the trip that blends with the cultural and adventure in Tibet. They decided to go for the ‘Tingri to Everest Base camp trek’ which was mixed with the tour to the different monasteries in Lhasa, Shightse, Gyantse as well as  trekking to the lap of the Everest – the highest mountain of the world starting from the small bustling Tibetan market of  Tingri.

They spent 4 days for the sightseeing tour to Potala Palace, Norbulinkha Palace, Drepung and Sera Monastery and Jokhang Temple and acclimatization in Lhasa before crossing the passes of 5000 m. On the way, they visited Yam Drok Tso Lake, Gyantse Dong, Kubum in Gyantse and Tashilampo Monastery in Shightse which have their own religious importance.

The trek was accompanied by an experience guide and a cook from Nepal. Because of the bad weather, they could only trek up to Lung Thang. Although, they could not accomplish the trek, they drove to the Everest Base camp, the main destination of the trek and further to Kathmandu.

The clients were satisfied with the level of service of our guide and supporting staffs and wish to come in future to complete the same trek!
