Equator expeditions are one of the original Rafting and Expedition agencies in Nepal. On my first visit in 1995 they were helpful, welcoming and first class to work alongside as a fresh faced and 'newby' safety kayaker. Our experiences on the Kali Gandaki and Sun Kosi that year will stay with me forever.

Recently Mahendra ran a trip in 2003 down the Sun Kosi and then again in 2006. Our 2006 trip was a blast with everything organised with a few simple emails from the UK. If you want a hassle free trip with the professionals, this is the company you need to book with . . .

2006 details - Fully raft supported trip on the Sun Kosi $400 ex Kathmandu. Arranged also (at extra cost) collection from airport, overnight at their amazing 'Sukute Beach' resort, Depart from Sukute on the Sun Kosi, Internal Flights back, Guided three day trips in the Bhote kosi area, you name it - Mahendra managed to sort it.
