Details about the accommodation: Hotel is accommodation in Kathmandu, Pokhara, and Chitwan. We will stay in Tea houses while trekking on Ghorepani and Poon Hill Panorama Trek. Teahouses are stopovers where trekkers get basic food, accommodation, and some other services at an economical price. Originally, as their name suggests Teahouses were small shops operated by the locals in the trails of Nepali treks where travelers used to have tea while taking rest. They all evolved with time as trekkers’ incoming ratio to Nepal also increased so they came up with basic accommodation and food services. Let me know if you have any questions we can schedule a call or you can let me know in the Q&A section!
