How it works |
- Should one decide to go on the trip of a lifetime, naturally one should go with the best.
- And if that trip is to Nepal, then the best is Tiger Mountain Group and their 'Royal Trek' through the foothills of the Himalayas, following in the fresh footsteps of the great and the good.
- This luxury, five-star experience is popular with famous people and those who find exotic beach holidays a bit 'ho-hum'. Basically, the idea is to hike through some of the most breathtaking scenery in the world while other people carry all your stuff and pander to your every whim.
- You will be the guests of the Tiger Mountain Group, who are, quite simply, the original and best in the business. Previously, they have arranged the 3-day 'New Royal Trek' section of this package for HRH the Prince of Wales. And, we gather Hillary Clinton and Steven Segal did something similar (though not, one imagines, all at the same time).
- The full 9-night trip you are bidding on includes not only some of your drinks, meals and trekking, but your driving tours, elephant-back safaris (!), and whatever you want to do when you get there. Tiger Mountain Group actually own the whole kit and caboodle – jeeps, boats, ox-carts, elephants, the lot – so you can make as much use of their kit (or their caboodle) as you wish.
- Your stay will include a night at the award winning Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge with its elegant and spacious rooms and spectacular panoramic mountain views…
- Right, pay attention, this will be your itinerary:
Day 1: Fly to Kathmandu, stay overnight at the Soaltee Crown Plaza.
Day 2: You might like to take the Mountain Flight (an optional extra) and then it's on for some sightseeing of Pashypatinath and Bod as well as Bhaktapur.
Day 3: After a good night's sleep at the Soaltee Crown Plaza you will fly off to Pokhara. You will be met by your own Sherpa guide and so starts the 4 days 'Royal Trek' to Bhumdi with camping along the way.
Day 6: The trekking portion of the itinerary ends today in Kare where a vehicle will meet you to transfer you to the award winning Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge where you will overnight with a breathtaking view of Annapurna.
Day 7: Your final two nights will be at the superb Tiger Tops Jungle Lodge with lots of wonderful jungle activities to choose from.
Day 9: Then it's back to Kathmandu by plane from Meghauly. You will be met again and taken to the Soaltee Crown Plaza with the rest of the day at leisure before your farewell dinner in a Nepalese restaurant with lots of fabulous food, wine and local entertainment - a great way to finish off this splendid journey and spend your final night in Nepal.
- The 'Royal Trek' part of this remarkable trip is suitable for anyone of a reasonable fitness and, as a reward for all your legwork, well, what else would one expect but all the pampering, choices, five-star service etc, etc you could ask for?
- This is an incomparable combination of natural wonder and shameless luxury – a chance to feel like David Attenborough and J-Lo, all at the same time.
So bid now for this unique trip of a lifetime.
