    Nepal Tibet and Bhutan Tour with Outfitter Himalaya

    I did a solo tour of Nepal, Tibet, and Bhutan in the month of May. The Tour was organized by Outfitter Himalaya, and I loved it. Even before I got to Nepal, Arjun always replied to my emails promptly and gave me all the information I needed for the travel. Everything promised by the company was delivered, from the airport pick-up to the quality accommodation in Kathmandu, Chitwan, Pokhara, Lhasa, Thimphu, and Paro.

    I had an incredible time driving through the mountains from Kathmandu to Lhasa (Tibet), the Himalayas are something that you need to see if you haven't been there. The guide was flexible and stopped anytime I wanted a break or something to eat or take pictures. The hotels were great - particularly the delicious food that I'd get every day. When I go back to Nepal, I will be booking with Outfitter Himalaya again, and I highly recommend the company for tours in Nepal, Tibet, and Bhutan.
