My son and I arrived in Kathmandu in the middle of the night and were met and welcomed by our Tour Guide Kumar and driver Deepak. We had taken the special deal tour so stayed in the 3* hotels. These turned out to be well-located, iconic, comfortable and friendly places. Everything was on time, we were well-fed and we always felt extremely safe. Our tour from Kathmandu (ceremonies, flight past Everest) to Pokhara (Annapurna Mtns, monks, trail walking and the Lake) and down to Chitwan National Park (tigers tracks, rhino, elephants, crocodiles and birdlife) allowed us to experience us so much of the culture of Nepal, and we are keen to return and see even more.

Having been to Nepal in 2015 for trekking, I decided to visit again - this time for touring with my wife. Having had very good service, we decided to use Earthbound again. Rajan suggested that we visit for 8 days (rather than 3) and go to Pokhara and Chitwan. He organised for us to be picked up from the airport and shown around Kathmandu. We had a car, driver and also a guide for our tailor made trip to Pokhara and Chitwan. We had a wonderful time. It relaxed and very enjoyable. We will use Eatrhbound again and have no hesitation in recommending the company for those intending to visit Nepal. Thank you Rajanbhai.
