There are plenty of drift roads and trails in Nepal to meet every mountain biker’s wildest fantasy. Mountain biking is a fascinating way to travel the byways of the valley, visiting little-known villages, sacred groves and out of the way temples and monuments.

  • Cyclists may go out for just the day or may spend two or three days, staying at the scenic view spots of Dhulikhel, Nagarkot, Kakani, or Daman.
  • Longer tours go from Kathmandu all the way to the southern Terai regions, Pokhara, Ganesh Himal region of Chitwan National Park.
  • Groups with experienced bikers can go to Langtang Valley or Throng-La, Mustang or even fly up to Lhasa, Tibet and mountain bike all the way back to Kathmandu via Everest base camp

Wonderful Nepal trek

October 2014, Tripadvisor

I got the amazing opportunity to experience the Everest area with Earthbound Expeditions. It was such a great experience, very organized, and gave a fantastic overview of the Nepali culture and people. It was a life changing experience. Nepal is a magical place and I am so grateful to have used Earthbound to show me the way. I can't say enough good things about how they made me feel. It's like I was brought into a family, and felt safe with their knowledgeable guides. I highly recommend this trak and company! Thank you so much Earthbound Expeditions!!

Family Adventure in Nepal

October 2014, Tripadvisor

We just got back from an excellent first trip to Nepal with our kids ages 8 and 11. I had initially contacted several agencies to make enquiries and got the best most prompt and thorough response from Rajan at Earthbound so decided to go with them. Definitely a good decision - we were impressed with the organisation and professionalism he provided from start to finish. He offered an initial itinerary which we adapted to suit our needs and was a private trip for just our family. Whatever we wanted to do was no problem to arrange. The hotels were all a good standard and very well located. We did a four day trek from Pokhara which was a perfect introduction for the kids . Our guide Namaraj was great, informative and entertaining. He even ran back an hour to our lodge to retrieve the kids' Kindles that were left behind! Thanks also to our porters Harry and Bhadri who held our kids' hands over the difficult bits whilst carrying our stuff. Even when we chose a different rafting company than Earthbound use, Rajan and Namaraj still arranged private transfers for us at no extra charge. It very much felt like the personal touch made all the difference. The last night included a special Nepali dinner which Rajan personally escorted us to. I would not hesitate to recommend Earthbound Expeditions and will definitely use them again next time, as there will definitely be a next time!

Mountain and Tiger 12 day Tour

October 2014, Tripadvisor

Since I am 60 years old my wife and were a little nervous about the physical demands of this tour. I followed the training recommendations and was rewarded with a fantastic trip. I won't repeat the other reviews which are so positive that one would expect they might be fake. Trust me this organisation babies you the whole way leaving you to enjoy the hike, the food, the scenery and the wonderful people. Here are some tips. Go in October which is sunny and warm.Take the rafting option. Use hand santizer often. Bring power bars. Bring aqua tabs and flavored electrolyte tablets. Bring flip flops and micro fibre towels. Use zip lock bagsto separate your items. Bring a emergency poncho as well as a thin water proof jacket. I would allow two days n Katmandu prior to the tour and take a day tour of the city but leave the day the tour ends. The tiger hunt part of this tour was especially interesting as we stayed in a nice resort in Chitwan park and actually herded a nasty rino on while riding the elephants. If you like adventure -- take this tour. We paid $900.00 us each

April 2014, Tripadvisor

This was my first time in Nepal. A 10 days trekking tour with earth bound expeditions. Mr Rajan and his team made it to be absolutely amazing time. Pick up at airport, hotel in kathmandu and pokhara were good, guesthouse and transfer good.You felt welcome at first moment.I came alone from Norway, but no worry I met a great crew of people. We were10 people from different parts of the world, and also different ages, we hang together up in the Nepali mountains plus our guide Apar and three porters. Our guide Apar Datta Pant was so friendly and helpful he did awesome job organizing, you felt safe and good with him around.The porters did a great job too, keep up with our luggage, always smiling and friendly. Ramjee Bhatta who saw the moment when we need a song to keep going and hanging in there, very friendly, helpful and service minded. All together this team provided me with a never forgotten trip BRAVO it was great! Thank you all, a professional and dedicated staff. I cant wait to come back and see more of Nepal. I definitly recommended this trip and with Rajan and his staff in earthbound expedition! Monica (Norway)
