Tour Reviews
The Kathmandu Chisapani Nagarkot trek took us through several Nepalese villages, allowing us a close-up view of their way of life. I really enjoyed the trek and have promised myself that I will return to Nepal to do another. Professional guide, and good service at the tour company. Highly recommended
