Insight Guide to Nepal,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Insight Guide Nepal (Insight Guides) (Paperback)
I find the In Sight series to be the best for me when it comes to travel information in new locations. The information is normally not time sensitive. This guide answers a lot of travel questions as well as give information on locations around the country. It helps me decide what I want to see and what to include in the tour.
