Mt Kilimanjaro Lemosho Route

June 2015, Tripadvisor

Sri Lanka was our fourth trip arranged by Earthbound Expeditions. We have always been pleased with the professional, friendly and prompt attention provided by Rajan, president of the company. He has been very helpful in customizing trips to suit our needs and always selects good guides and drivers. There are many things to do in Sri Lanka. We especially enjoyed exploring the historical sites that had once been capitals of the country. Hiking to and exploring Buddhist pilgrimage sites such as Sigiriya fortress, Mihinthale and Dambulla Rock Cave Temple were also highlights of the trip. Visually the island extends from coastal beaches to cool lush green hills where large tea plantation hills are located.

We allowed for a day in 'luxury' ok arrival to Kathmandu (stayed in the Hyatt) before our adventure began! The trip with earthbound expeditions was incredible. There is nothing I repeat nothing like staying in the hills of the Himalayas, in simple cabins, huddled in your sleeping bags and blankets, bed at 8 or 9 pm, simple but lovely lovely food made by the house owner (what id give for more dhal bat, momos and those Nepalese fried breads!). Nothing like knowing how far you've trekked that day and that you've finally arrived in your destination for the day. Nothing like seeing rolling hills 2000metres below, or the sunset over the mighty peaks across the way. Our guide was amazing, Thakur Sapkota. He took care if us like a brother or father, and I never doubted him. Of all the groups (there were three in our 'trip') I was glad he was our guide. Nepal felt safe, fun, wonderful people, cheap and good value, most beautiful scenery. I was definitely shocked at the poverty when arriving, but quickly realised it was safe and you get accustomed to it. I'm so shocked and horrified by the recent earthquakes - life is just not fair for this poor gem of a country. Nepal was rising as a traveller destination - continue one and all I say. I would love to go back and plan to - I never got to chitwan national park! I wish to see her (Nepal) rise up again.

Rajan is a good man. Yes, he runs a business so needs to make a living but he's a bright guy and knows his suppliers. The result is he delivers well priced, efficient services. I went back to Sagarmatha, KTM and Chitwan a year after my first trek with Zearthbound and Rajan helped set up all of that too. Today's earthquake reminded me that I never did a review but after two sets of arrangements one in October 2013 and one in October 2014 I still strongly recommend him. The October 2013 was complicated by Cyclone Phaillin which resulted in a lot of management from Rajan, all ably handled.
