Bandipur To Pokhara Nepal Hike/Bus And £6 En Suite Accommodation🇳🇵🇳🇵

Hi today's vlog is the Bandipur To Pokhara Nepal Hike/Bus And £6 En Suite Accommodation🇳🇵🇳🇵. I had an amazingly relaxing stay in the beautiful mountain town of Bandipur my favourite place so far in Nepal but now its onwards to Pokhara the 2nd largest city in the country.
I start off with a five mile hike back down the mountain to Dumre to get the bus on the main road heading to Pokhara, one there the usual hassle off all the touts trying to get you on buses and make a commision for themselves. After a nightmare three hour journey as the roads were so bad i finally arrived then i take a walk and show you my extremely cheap £6 En Suite Accommodation a night.
I really hope you enjoy my Bandipur To Pokhara Nepal Hike/Bus And £6 En Suite Accommodation🇳🇵🇳🇵vlog and can join me in the next one. Please Like, Subscribe and Share with anybody who you think may be interested in my content. Thank you

[@martinpowell5769]

The only walking I like is from bar to bar 🙏😆

[@MindTrippin-SinceBirth]

Pure magic Richy, it`s almost like if i was back there again myself... want to give you millions of tips on what to do but this is your trip.. Keep enjoying it!!!

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks mate that’s exactly what I set out to do, bring back memories and inspire people who haven’t been to come. I haven’t got long left here it was always a reconnaissance trip for my next visit hopefully in 2025 and the advice is always more than welcome.

[@kellgiggs6593]

Cracking walk with you down the mountain today Richy👍 Ps where you going?😜😂. Cheers mate, stay safe, regards Kell 👍

[@ParkinsonRaw]

[@JonnyWilkinson-yh3ct]

@JonnyWilkinson-yh3ct class mate it would be amazing to see you here or wherever in Asia👍🏻

[@robinlowerson565]

Great vlog Richy. Thanks for sharing & stay safe.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you Robin.

[@Shazhussain-xq7ol]

Lovely place keep nice one

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks Shaz, it is a beautiful country mate

[@chrispy1963]

Oh I was laughing Richy when you nearly lost the plot at the bus station in Bandipur. Been there myself many a time. No matter how cool a character you are, when you get off of a local bus after a nightmare 8 hour journey to be met by an aggressive crowd of taxi/hotel touts, I challenge anyone not to lose it😂 Keep up the videos, they are hilarious mate.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

🤣I can laugh about it now but they are crazy and know how to push your limits. Thanks mate

[@quackersna]

Just walking around the mountains of Nepal. You're living the dream Richie.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

It is amazing mate.

[@cordeb2019]

Hey mate I did annapurna base camp trek twice 1996 and 1998. I was in my late 20s. Got altitude sickness second time. It's a tough trek mate. Can be done in 10 to 12 days. I hope you get too see the mountains up close man It is absolutely breathtaking. I was lucky enough to get a full moon and clear night up there. The most amazing thing I've ever seen. It's awesome watching your videos and seeing how much things have changed. Keep them coming..

[@MindTrippin-SinceBirth]

I did it 2001 in 7 days and wish i had done it in 9.. need to enjoy everyday and every moment and not just walk.. ABC is absolutley fantastic, last day after the 2nd last bace camp (MBC) the walk up to the ABC is pure magic, panoramic view of peaks from 6000m to +8000m 360° view man 🥲 holy shit it almost hurts inside me thinking about it

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks mate, unfortunately I won’t have time on this trip but I’ll be back next year to do a few good ones. I’ve spoken to few people here and they said it’s amazing too.

[@MindTrippin-SinceBirth]

@@ParkinsonRaw Think i said it before but, when in Pokhara you can go up to Sarangkot, best to stay one night up there and wake up early, epic view mate epic

[@jamesburton7603]

Richy Parko will not be ripped off! 😂👍🏼

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Always trying to find the best price Burty, you have to when you get so many crazy prices💯👌🏻

[@rg353]

A rough trek but that lake looks smooth and inviting Looking forward to the next journey Trek On Be Well

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you Randal, you’ll see a lot more of the lake in the next vlog mate. It is really nice with the mountains in the background too.

[@saltaireorangebicyclechopp8555]

You waiting for the bus gave me bad memories of Casablanca, l'm an easy going guy but eventually you can be ground down by persistent hassling to eventually flipping. You are knocking great vids out regularly now. 👍

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks Mark, yes mate they can test our patience a bit too much at times👌🏻

[@nepalftw592]

Loved your video.. hope you are enjoying Thanks for promoting Nepal 🇳🇵 🩵

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you my friend, I am really enjoying Nepal it is such a beautiful country💯🇳🇵

[@jimbo1663]

Wow 6 bucks a night beautiful mate, hope you have recovered from your journey Cheers Jimbo Glasgow

[@ParkinsonRaw]

I have thanks Jimbo although my legs are dead lol. It is amazing Pokhara definitely worth the trip.

[@senianns9522]

Glad you got the correct price for the bus trip! Still rainy here in Thailand. Stay well!

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you Seni, I did eventually mate.

[@KF-cx8bm]

Fantastic vlog, thank you

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks you mate.

[@davemassingham2096]

Awesome stuff mate I can’t remember the name of the hike I did but it goes all through the mountain villages and you stay with locals was amazing

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks Dave, I’ve got plans to come back next year and do some amazing treks mate

[@andrewabbott2476]

Thanks!

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you very much Andrew.

[@AMH-bl1ne]

I enjoy your videos. Thank you. I like to offer one suggestion. "I'm OK" is British. It's not universally understood. When someone asks you if you want something and you don't want it, I suggest saying "No". In most parts of the world, "I'm Ok" means you feel ok. I doesn't mean no. Maybe that's why everyone asks you twice or three times. Please try it. It works for me on the first "No". I'm also in Nepal at the moment and I have been to some of the streets you walked. Very cool. Keep up the good work. Mark

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you Mark I trust you’re enjoying Nepal it’s a beautiful country isn’t it. Thanks for the comment and I’ll take that on board.

[@glennamyhotspur]

Cheers, Richy! It would do my head in too mate keep getting asked the same questions. I had a similar thing in Morroco, yes, they want your custom, but it spoils what the place has on offer IMO.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks mate, I had the same in Morocco they were chasing me down the street.

[@wayneleader2364]

Yes mate the Bus Travel is hard work . road works . old bus. dust . rain. etc . i did it once then decided to hire a car and driver . Happy travels mate

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks Wayne, it is a nightmare mate.

[@Misstree62]

Spectacular place and listen to the birds are they sparrows?

[@ParkinsonRaw]

It is lovely and I love watching the birds, I’m not sure what they are but I would guess sparrows.

[@Fazak38]

I learned long ago traveling by bus never sit over the rear wheels and suspension.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

That’s a great idea thanks Fazak, I don’t know why I never thought about that.

[@PATThaiA]

Likedนะ

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you mate

[@deanandconner5194]

Yes richy

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks mate

[@XPATJAK]

Great vlog Richy, had me laughing 😂 I watch on my phone and can’t find your PayPal link mate. 👍🇦🇺

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you Jack, it’s in the description mate and on the homepage of my channel👍🏻👌🏻

[@Vlogging.on.a.donkey]

I will go there one day on my future travels. I hope you write that travel book and we can follow your footsteps

[@ParkinsonRaw]

It is awesome mate it’s really exceeded my expectations. I’ll definitely be back next year to do some treks. I would love to do a book I just don’t have time, I put an awful lot into KZbin now but you never know in the future

[@Y2Kvids]

The Correct Season is very important .

[@ParkinsonRaw]

I like it when it’s low season it’s not so busy and I don’t mind the rain I’m from Northern England it rains all the time.

[@Y2Kvids]

@@ParkinsonRaw It is correct season..rain should have stopped weeks back but monsoon extended a little . Full Rainy season is also okay if you are just enjoying the greenery and not the mountains .

[@rhysypoo]

You need a pair of roller skates to go down them hills , ust like we had when we were kids. The metal ones that you tie onto your trainers

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Lol class idea mate I used to be ok on skates back in the day

[@matthewmiles9626]

You've landed on your feet with your digs so far pal.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

I have Matthew thanks mate, they are so cheap here.

[@dutezore]

Because of the Clouds IT was was hard to see but I’m pretty sure the mountain you were looking at was Fishtail in Nepali Mapuchare which has never been climbed as it is a sacred Mountain…a liitle like mountain kailash in Tibet. It is one of the most beautiful mountains in the world rather like AMA Dablam and the Matterhorn. In the Annapurnas it’s not that high under 7000m. From Pokhara you should be able to see a number of the 14 tallest mountains in the World including Manaslu and Dhalguiri . Also you should be able to see Annapurna South. If you go to Sarangkot just above Pokhara views will be even better or just hike up to the World Peace Temple . By the way the new Shiva Temple you can see above the lake is an experience …….

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks for the info mate, unfortunately my legs are in pain and I can’t do as much as I want but I will be back next year trekking.

[@travelswithjasonf1463]

Yes the taxis things it makes me laugh it do like you know it the same in Thailand why would I say yes after saying no to 7 in an row 😅 its mad love your saying that way. Yes the roads look very bad I think I be like get me off and yes the tourists bus's may have better support. Hope you find a pair of boots to walk in if you not already done it pull up the soul and stuff it full of carboud that will help for a little bit and it will only be a little bit Loving the journey

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks Jason, I’m as happy as a pig in sh#t mate. I got some new trainers and they’re really good. All is revealed in the next vlog when I go shopping and take a walk through lakeside Pokhara.

[@SiennaParkinson-r9l]

Thats my uncle richard

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Yes it is and a very proud uncle Sienna, I hope you and your mam are ok💯😎

[@martinpowell5769]

Keep your eyes off them goats Richy, you can’t eat them all 😆

[@ParkinsonRaw]

I can’t mate, they make me hungry🤣

[@darrylhalden1948]

Hi Richy....were you sitting close to directly above the back wheels on the bus?...I wondered because that would make the ride really bumpy

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks Darryl, probably mate I never really thought about that to be honest

[@dune6727]

Is the food like indian

[@ParkinsonRaw]

It’s similar but not as diverse, there are loads of Indian restaurants here though and many other cultures.

[@deanandconner5194]

Richy whats been your favourite place

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Has to be Bandipur mate, so beautiful, distinctive and relaxing I loved it

[@whitelines3097]

I am off to India in 2 weeks are you heading that way any time soon ?

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Unfortunately not mate, I’m hoping to be there at the end of the year but if not definitely early next year. I hope you have a great time.

[@ishorbaral2806]

You got misunderstood actually roads are in under construction its a part of Development projects ..

[@ParkinsonRaw]

I can only show people my true travel experience, I did say in the vlog the roads are under construction and I understand but i also know this has being going on for a few years and will last for a few more.

[@shaunthemole]

Why you sit over the back wheels get to the middle of the bus more stable !

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks Shaun I stupidly never thought of that mate.

[@gangsom]

All I've got are these damn Nepalese coins. Guess the film where the quote is from?

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Lol I have no idea mate.

[@gangsom]

​@@ParkinsonRawlol kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3bCdWSEmsylfNUsi=xPkJBrN9nNjOPWBo

[@gangsom]

​@@ParkinsonRawthere's something about Mary

[@chadmartinez459]

In poorer countries people are trying even harder to make a sale, and therefore solicit more. As a foreigner who doesn’t speak the language, wouldn’t “No, thank you” be much less ambiguous than “I’m okay”? Or simply learn to say ‘no thank you’ in their language. It may not (probably won’t) stop repeated solicitations by the same person, but it couldn’t hurt.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

@@chadmartinez459 I’ve said no thank you a million times Chad and it’s done me no good whatsoever, sometimes it’s inevitable that I lose my patience. If you have watched all of the vlog they were forcibly pushing people into the buses, that pushes me too far. I’m the most respectful traveller until there tactics go overboard.

[@terencegraham8414]

New sub, i'll check your channel out. Looks good.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks mate, it’s good to have you on board.

[@ayoogorkhali9262]

cheap tourist always complaining too much get a 15 min flight if you really dont like to travel in these bumpy dusty roads jeez man ,the highway is in major underconstruction from kathmandu to pokhara why are you getting annoyed with these things when you're traveling cheap

[@ParkinsonRaw]

@@ayoogorkhali9262 haha I show my true travel experience and it shouldn’t matter what budget your on the road here was insanely bad. Ridiculous comment to be honest👍🏻

[@simonsmith1139]

Non, Je ne regrette Rian... As the great Edith Piaf put it.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

I’ll take that as no regrets Simon lol you do keep me on my toes mate.
