    We visited Nepal as a family of 4 with 2 boys aged 8 and 10. Nabin arranged the perfect trip for us from picking us up at the airport arranging all transportation, hotels and sightseeing in Kathmandu and Pokhara plus 6 day Poonhill trek and we couldn’t fault a single thing. We had an amazing time learning about and experiencing this amazing country and saw so much more than we would have done had we arranged ourselves. The highlight for us was the trek Nabin’s suggestions were just right for our family and despite our concerns the boys had no issues completing it the only thing they complained about was having to wait the adults to catch up!! We are already planning our next trek with Nabin.

    Planning for a family trip to Nepal can be imagined as relax and refreshing tour comes with some activities, sight seeing and with some Nepali and Tibetan food. But when visiting Nepal, it will remain incomplete without going close to some of the tallest mountain of the world. Though close is comparative (from some view point closer to the mountain range, Base camps, or climbing the top of the mountains) and can be reached multiple ways (like widely known view points Nagarkot - near Kathmandu, Sarangkot - near Pokhara) by a vehicle, or by helicopter and last but not the list is through on foot. Yes I am talking about trekking. While reviewing about Nepal and its attractions at the time of planning for Nepal visit, at certain point it seems without trekking, visiting Nepal will only give less than a quarter of utility. And then the difficult part starts ..i.e. how to make a trekking plan with a family where we 02 are above 44 y and my daughter is 15y and son is 12y. Constraints: time limitation, physical fitness level, Trek outcome. Due to time limitation as well as being the first time trekking plan, it needs to be as short as possible and worthy of view. So Ghorepani - PunHill came to the travellers choice as a short trekking plan and most of the case it was 3N/4D or as low as 2N/3D trek. After more digging down, it was found that it can be a 1N/2D trekking by reducing the trekking time through covering a good portion by Jeep riding through a rough risky road by the edges of mountains. And it pays off. Though it was a short trek (04/05 hours going up on 1st day and 3/4 hours going down on the second day) but the Poon Hill view point is awesome and majestic. I would suggest better not to do this simple trek if your have a kid less than 10y, any of you are a bit overweight, age more than 40y and don’t have previous trekking experience. Because, at some point going up is really difficult. Basic fitness will help to continue up to a certain point. Better to have some physical activities for at least a month before the trek for the first timer. But once u enjoy the whole trek and viewing the part of Annapurna Range, Dhaulagiri form Poon hill, it will inspire to go for more longer and other treks. My trek arranger Bahadur of #Sisne Rover Trekking Pvt Ltd. really helped me to customise the trek according to my available time and also make a good arrangement of guide Mr. Ram, porter Mr. Krishna, vehicle and hotel at Ghorepani. Bahadur also helped me to rent the Jeep for Kathmandu while a short stop at Bandipur. He coordinated with me for planing the trek (trek with my family having 02 kids of 12y and 15y) since 02 week before my flight to Nepal and guided my plan at Pokhara, Trek and also return to Kathmandu. I would love to make my another trek with them.

    Poonhill, there are no words to describe how amazing this tracking and the villages we passed. The agency “Himalayan Abode Travels” is very professional and attended to us with all the attention and support. Many tanks Nabin Prasal. The guide who was with us was “Sadhuram”, he is wonderful, very attentive and gave us valuable information about the culture and history of Nepal and the tracking. Many thanks Sadhuram.
