Nepal Group Tours

Our 15 day trip to Nepal in November met all our expectations. The group of 16 was led by Su, who was not only caring and attentive but knowledgable on every aspect of his country. The trip was full on and involved city walks as well as peaceful treks through the countryside and hilltop pretty villages with spectacular views of the Himalayas. Su ensured we had the opportunity of seeing beautiful sunsets and regularly gave us the option of rising early to enjoy the sunset from the rooftop of our accommodation. Visiting Chitwan National Park was a highlight at the end of our trip where we saw one-horned rhinos, elephants as well as other animals and birds. The bus journeys were comfortable and restful as we passed through villages and saw day to day life of the local people. We made regular stops for bathroom breaks, coffee or just stretch our legs. I would thoroughly recommend this trip for those with a moderate to good level of fitness who would like to enjoy all aspects of Nepal.

The local expertise, focus on health and safety.. and tremendous staff made this superb. A lot can go wrong on these adventurous journeys but with WE care it ran incredibly smoothly. Loved every minute of it !

This trek was incredible! Sanjay and the team did an amazing job of safely getting the group to Everest base camp and a couple of us to the top of Kala Patthar. I would highly recommend using World Expeditions for lots of reasons but 3 big ones are: 1) They cook all the food - this ensured that is was tasty and safe and no one in our group got sick, 2) mostly staying in their own campsites - the tents were really cosy and 3) the people - from the guides to the porters - were all amazing and local.

This trip was unforgettable! Many people choose to do the Annapurna Circuit on their own and they mainly follow the Jeep track, which didn’t appeal to us. We were so happy and grateful that we decided to go with Exodus - we had the best guides! Sukman and his assistant guides Dipendra and Lakpa Sherpa were fantastic. We had knock knock tea in the mornings - loved that part, and followed a mix of alternate trails (that weren't well known) with certain sections along the main Jeep track. On those quieter trails, we rarely encountered other trekkers and definitely no other tour groups. We did pass herds of goats and met local people. We only saw other people along the main jeep track. Two days before reaching Thorong La Pass, we had heavy snow. Thanks to Sukman’s expertise, he made the difficult decision to backtrack immediately. Many trekkers without guides, or those who chose to wait out the storm, ended up stranded at high camp and had to be rescued. We were fortunate to make it safely off the mountain in time, though it meant rerouting the second half of our trip. Even with the detour - we thoroughly this trip thanks to the amazing team. The porters were also incredible companions. Without them, carrying all of our belongings for three weeks would have been tough!!

This was a first class trip with a great range of activities. There were plenty of guided things to get involved with - treks, white water rafting, city tours, wild life safaris. These were well balanced with free time for people to pursue their own interests. The thing which made the trip exceptional was Su the tour leader. His kindness, attention to detail and catering for everyone's needs was outstanding - often dealing with potential difficulties before they arose. Su was also well supported by the two drivers who always went beyond their duties. The team were real ambassadors for Nepal and Explore.

The most stunning trek you can imagine. The Himalaya's really are great cathedrals of nature. Walk alongside 3 of the top 10 peaks in the world, with an itinerary set up to ensure you succeed at altitude and make it over the amazing Thorong La Pass at 5,416m. Most competitors do the trek in 2 weeks, missing large sections or not acclimatising properly - the 22 day version means you complete (just about) everything.
