As below, I liked the way you wrote but felt there was just so much more you could have written about this region. Maybe if you have a look at some of the other travel reviews on the site to get a feel for what other consumers find more helpful it would help you expand on your review and get better ratings. I am fairly sure it will be fascinating reading if you could expand upon what you've already written. Please feel free to drop me a line in my guestbook if you update and I'll be happy to come back and reread/rerate as appropriate :) by anonymili
The review was only just helpful. I really liked how you wrote the story however it was not long enough to be of great use to anyone. Work on more description and grammar and you could have some great reviews. Jason. by JJBDude

Pokhara: A Means to an End?
Review of Pokhara (Nepal) by salar15

Advantages: Spectacular scenery and a wealth of opportunities for outdoor pursuits.
Disadvantages: Not great if you are not into outdoor pursuits. Leeches.

There's no doubting that Pokhara is a pretty spectacular place to be. With the jawdroppingly majesterial Annapurna mountain range rearing over Lake Phewa, some of the views you'll experience in the right conditions are simply indescribable; if you were t ... Read review

Quick review of Rum Doodle, Kathmandu
Review of Rum Doodle, Kathmandu by Gina14K

Rum Doodle is one place in Kathmandu which is very close to my heart. To a regular tourist, a must-visit place. The food is good (the chicken/mushroom baskets and the cheesecake - absolutely awesome!), the ambience great and the staff is very friendly and courteous. The team behind Rum Doodle is amazingly marketing savvy and with a savvy and happening name like Rum Doodle, they surely have a winner on their hands.

Well said and well done. I kick myself that I never got to Nepal twenty years ago, when it was safe and genuine and - so I'm told - wonderful and friends were urging me to go. But I didn't, and the more I hear of it nowadays the less I want to try to change that. Pity. But I hope you have found things to enjoy and to excite you despite the danger. Duncan by torr

Visit to Nepal
Review of Yak and Yeti Hotel, Kathmandu by davidkky

Advantages: Good location, right in the middle of city, very clean hotel, excellent service, many food & beverage outlet to choose from, good airport service, helpful staff, good reservation feedback
Disadvantages: A little expensive can be discounted by talking to Front Office before checking in, no self-driven rental car, rather small business center, internet connections were slow

I arrived in Nepal on Feb. 3rd 2003. My airport pick-up was right outside the airport waiting for me. This was a good sign. My online reservation request was made promptly and I received replies to any inquiry I had within 24 hours. My stay was very c ... Read review
