“Prelievo dall’hotel, ma poi il tragitto Kathmandu-Chitwan (e ritorno) é con un autobus pubblico e.. AIUTO! Autobus sporchissimi, senza aria condizionata e i tragitti da 5 ore si sono presto trasformati in 9 ore (sia all’andata che al ritorno). E sapete quanto costa la tratta in autobus? 7/8€ (quindi l’escursione costa una follia rispetto al servizio). Per colpa dei mezzi pubblici e del traffico disumano abbiamo dovuto cambiare l’organizzazione dell’escursione perché siamo arrivati troppo troppo tardi. Insomma…. PENSATECI PRIMA DI ACQUISTARE QUESTO PACCHETTO!”
