Hi Postak,
We are back from our Himalayan adventure and it was fantastic! We really had a great time and were humbled by the mountainous beauty of both the landscape and the people. Thank you for making it a special occasion.
We did have one minor change to our itinerary which included myself not being able to travel to Tibet.(We were worried about Tina because she has a minor heart condition, but it was me who did not feel well enough for the high altitude of Tibet). While in Nepal, High Asia Tours reimbursed me for the airfare from Nepal to Lhasa. However, the guide in Tibet had told my husband that the refund for my Lhasa/Chengdu and Chengdu/Bangkok flights would have to be done through your office.
Please let me know what you may require of me...
Many thanks,
Kathmandu, Pokhara,Chitwan and Nagarkot.

Awe-inspiring views of the magnificent white peaks of Dhaulagiri, Annapurna I and Manaslu, the world highest mountain, are plentiful here. The scenic territory is also a perfect place to connect with spiritual side. Wilderness extending over miles with various picturesque, isolated hamlets, small villages river embankments and forested pathways impart a sense of connecting with higher self and yet serene countryside.
