Trip Reviews
Ghalegaun is a typical Nepali village situated about 15 K.M from Pokhara. Shree organized this trip on our special request as we wanted to explore the local village and experience their daily life. Gurung community is major in this region which is rich in culture. They welcomed us with their program which includes dancing, showing their traditions and with food. We really enjoyed this trip as we were able to experience the local community along with mountains.

Additional Information
This is ADVENTURE travel, and many of the destinations on this site are in remote, underdeveloped areas where unpredictability is the norm. Despite careful planning and organization, our adventure trips can’t be taken for granted like regular trips. Many of the places we visit lack the emergency health and safety services you’re used to in the developed world. Internal flights can be canceled, road transport is often uncomfortable and unreliable, and hotel standards may not match those of the West.
If you’re not prepared for this, you shouldn’t travel with us. The unpredictability also means that our itineraries are statements of intent, not contractual obligations. Factors such as weather, transport difficulties, and political instability might require us to change any itinerary. The trip leader will make any necessary changes after consulting with the group. Such changes are rarely significant, and we always do our best to minimize their impact. However, we cannot be held responsible for changes or delays, regardless of their cause.
