In Lumbini it was lovely, in some places it was not very nice at all. Balthazar was rustic, but really nice.

I would have liked to pay a little more and have nicer accommodation. In Lumbini it was lovely, in some places it was not very nice at all. Balthazar was rustic, but really nice. Pokhara and Chitwan were not very good at all and I think it was Tansen that were not very nice either, but I couldn't swear to that one, but there was one other. The tour guide, Tara was very knowledgeable and we were taken out by Tilak and Byron after the trip. We had a fantastic evening with them, and it was very kind of them to spend that time with us.Show more
