Red Panda Ecotrips
Find yourself in red panda country...
one of the most biodiverse areas in the world.
RPN's ecotrips allow you to actively experience the gentle hospitality of family homestays and participate in our community-based conservation work. You actively see how your stay benefits directly our most important conservation partners: the rural communities who need alternatives to forest exploitation.

Food & Meals
Did we mention food? RPN's ecotrips offer some amazing meals. Each are freshly prepared by locals at your homestays. Homestay operators have been certified in food safety techniques. We accomodate meat, vegan, and vegetarian options.
Local Culture
RPN's ecotrips immerse you in the local culture, both in rural areas and the capitol city of Kathmandu. Our guides make sure to include the local sights and experiences.
Accomodations
Part of the RPN ecotrip experience is overnighting in local homestays. These homestays are welcoming, comfortable, and you get to learn about Nepali culture from local people. Homestay personnel are trained in effective sanitation and food safety standards.
Transportation During the Trip
RPN handles all the in-country transportation. We meet you at the airport and will provide all in-country flights and manage all local transit as needed.
