Backpacking in the Himalayas
Thumbnail description: Host Suman Anand Thakuri hits all the Himalayan highlights with this exciting but not terribly demading tour -- backpacking, white-water rafting, wildlife, archeology, local customs and more. He proposes a 15-day itinerary but emphasizes that he is very flexible and glad to customize tours to his clients' interests.

Homestay with Nepalese Families
Thumbnail description: Some would say that the tiny kingdom of Nepal is so overcrowded with visitors that no enlightened ecotourist would go there. On the other hand ecotourism provides critically important income for many Nepalese. By promoting homestays among families who have been thoroughly prepared by Nepal's Intercultural Research and Training Centre (ITC), EarthFoot feels satisfied that our visitors will be receiving extraordinary and satisfying deep-immersion experiences while contributing very little to "cultural erosion."
