An excellent and highly enjoyable trip with a good amount of variety. The tour leader (Su) was superb and certainly one of the best I have encountered - no request seemed beyond him!
The trip covers a lot of ground and expect some long bumpy rides on the roads which are not currently in a good state. However it is worth it for the temples, the walks, the scenery, the wildlife, and the lovely people of Nepal. Highlights include Chitwan which as well as wildlife gives you an insight into rural Nepalese life and Nagarkot which gives you beautiful sunrise views of the mountains and lovely scenery. I also loved the cable car ride to Manakamana Temple (optional trip) and the colourful stalls there and Patan (another optional trip) which has temples and gave us the opportunity to see both Buddhist and Hindu ceremonies taking place.
Accommodation was generally good. Highlights were the Hotel Shanker in Kathmandu and Tigerland in Chitwan. The Riverside at Kurintar was lovely too.
The food was good and you get to try a good range of cuisine.
The walks were, in my view, not too strenuous and were along country tracks with a lot of uneven steps in some cases. If you are a bit unstable on your feet, take a walking pole.
Definitely a trip I would recommend.
