Real Nepal Experience

Review
In August I went on the Real Nepal Experience where I volunteered in the Chitwan orphanage. It was a truly amazing experience that I would recommend to anyone thinking of doing any volunteering or travelling, as the Nepal Experience gives a perfect combination of the two.
PMGY and all the contacts and guides in Nepal were great in organising the trip, and are very accommodating to your needs. Especially given how cheap the trip is relative to other similar organisations, the service PMGY provide is brilliant. PMGY provide more than enough information beforehand in their handbooks, and through webinars, as well as via email should you have questions.
The accommodation in Nepal was relatively basic, but a lot better than what I was expecting given how poor the country is. Food in the orphanage was great, the dal bhat was the best we'd had anywhere in Nepal.
My advice to anyone thinking of doing this trip would be to book it straight away - the only bad part of the trip was how quickly it went!
