Amazon customer review: "I am planning a trip to Nepal, so i was shopping around for DVDs, i bought this one. Its great, there is about 20 minutes dedicated to the everest base camp trek alone! Perfect! Give a good idea what the terrain will be like. WHat you can buy in the shops along the way and so on.
The rest of the DVD covers the city of kathmandu. And the chitwan national park,seems ok, crocs, rhinos etc.. a bit of a drive from kathmandu though! Maybe i'll go there on my next trip!"
So a well recommended DVD for those wanting to tread across the Neap terrain and one that will show you what's in store for you on your journey.
