eating in a hotel or a local place we will always provide
you with freshly cooked dishes.

We use different types of accommodation as per the regional
availability. On our cultural tours we always give a choice

budget hotels are usually rated in between 2 star deluxe to
4 star hotels, yet are always comfortable with attached
baths. On our adventure tours we provide 4 season trekking
tents which are quite reliable in all weather conditions.
