Great – thanks Sherap!

So far we are thinking the following route and schedule: what d=

okhara rather than Bhartapur if it would be better?

Nepal trip (6 day / 4 nights)

Day 1: (11th Sept): Arrive 7:20am Kathmandu. Pick up motorbike + meet gui=

y on road to Pokhara.

Day 2: (12th Sept) depart earlier 2-3hr=
ride to arrive Pokhara at 12 noon. Go white water rafting / trek in Pokhara=
and check into hotel Raniban – have beers. (potential to stay another day i=

Day 3: (13th Sept) Depart Pokhara 9am. 5-6hr ride =
to Bharatpur Jagatpur Lodge. 

Day 4: (14th Sept): Rest d=

Day 5: =
(15th Sept): Depart Bharatpur late morning for Khatmandu via Hetauda. Ride 4=
hrs and find somewhere to stay. 

Day 6: (16th Sept): De=
