“My experience with The Last Resort is very good! From the very first moment we were taken good care of.

We were just passing by TLR on our way to the border, and even though we were just considering jumping, one of the staff sat down with us for some time and explained everything we needed to know which made it easier to make the decision to actually jump the day after.

When we showed up the next day we could enjoy a lovely breakfast in beautiful circumstances. The atmosphere in this place is really good. It’s so calm and relaxed yet filled with something nervously -at least just before the jump. Before the jump we were all gathered for information about practical things. It’s obvious that this kind of information is mandatory to mention, but the way they did it was very professional and very reassuring. When we came to the bridge, I felt that I was treated very professional and that made me feel very safe. I want to thank these guys for the good work they do! The jump itself was amazing! I took the canyon swing. Never before have I done something like this, but I really loved the feeling of jumping from the bridge! This is absolutely an experience I will remember for the rest of my life. The jump itself was very good, but to do it in The Last Resort with the help we got there and with these amazing circumstances made it even better”

Me along with three of my friends took a bus to the Last Resort on a very usual morning to do something unusual. Always wanted to try Bungy jumping and to feel how it really feels like to be airborne. And the day finally came.The travel was very relaxing with nice views. None of us had done Bungy before so we were pretty excited. Once we got there we had to cross the bridge suspended over the Bhote-koshi river to get to the resort. Then we had the weigh in and everyone was divided in three group. Two of my friends were in 2nd and me and one of other my friend were in the last group. After some briefing we went near the Bungy site to look at the first group jumping. It was really nice to see the jumps as well as the swings. It took the whole afternoon and finally it was my turn. I was a little intimidated while waiting on the bridge. Looking around could see some other intimidated faces too. I was finally called and they started harnessing… They also asked me some questions like how are u feeling and all… all i could say was I was pretty excited although was a bit scared. Then I slowly walked to the platform from where i would jump from about 160 m high….. When I got to the platform, reality finally hit me… Standing between a gorge and staring at the river flowing below.. was really intimidating… but I knew I wanted to do that… so I jumped…. the feeling, I really can’t put in words neither can i replicate it now.. but it was amazing and thrilling for sure… and my friend Anil did a back jump… kudos to him…. waiting for second jump now.. hopefully soon… cheers all!

It was my first time and I was freaking out, but I was determined to do it. You don’t have many chances like that one, to jump into one of the most deepest canyon in the world. Thanks to the Last Resort Staff, I could stand up and did a “penguin” walk to the limit between solid and air….standing there was the weariest thing in my life, but I was confident that nothing could go wrong and took the step into the nothing…..freefalling was amazing…I will always remember how easy it was. Thanks to the Last Resort staff, they were great, making every step so simple….

I always wanted to be a adrenalin junky and do some adventurous sports.  The Last Resort provided  me with the best option. What did I wanted to do? I was confused- Rafting, Bungy, Canyon Swing or try Hidden Canyon. Then finally decided to go for Canyon Swing. On 12.11.2012. me and my friends (Amir Sheakh, Amish Pokhrel, Amit Karki and Suvash Sundas) headed towards the Last Resort and we were already excited. Watching people jumping from the bridge(160 m high) was intense. Watching them even from the sideline was terrifying. Then finally I was harnessed and I was taken to the edge of the bridge. Excited and Nervous, I looked down through the bridge. ( Hell !!!!) It was Scary. I talked to myself. Finally the wait was over and i jumped. The first six seconds of the freefall, I was totally numb and later on I caught up my breath. Then I punched the air and said ” Yes I did it”.I don’t know how to share my feelings about that moment. The adrenalin rush I had was the best experience that I could get from any adventure.
I suggest to go for these sports if anyone wants to have the real adventure in their life.
Finally I would like to thank The last resort for providing me with such an experience. And we will definitely meet next time.

It was still dark and the sun had not come out. We had been excited all week long for this day to come. We were finally walking to The Last Resort’s office in Thamel from where a bus would take us to the resort and we’d jump off a 160m high bridge. We reached there and marked our attendance, paid the advance and waited. The place was not crowded, but wasn’t quiet too. There were people there, from all walks of life and all parts of the world, all of them waiting for the same bus. Even though the light was minimal you could see the excitement on everyone’s face. No matter how brave and care-free you think of yourself, there is this human inside you which brings out a hint of fear, in better words — excitement on your face. It was nice to talk to people, learn about how from varied places they’ve heard about this and have come here. About what other activities they have done and have planned to do in their stay in Nepal. With all the interesting people around, the wait didn’t feel soo long.

The wait was then over, we were in the bus and travelling through scenic roads, fog all around and the first rays of sun coming out of them making it all look so dreamy. Stopped for a quick breakfast and started moving again. People sleeping, chatting, lost in music or just staring out of the windows when we finally reached TLR.  There comes a place on the way, I think it’s called Sangha, which has the tallest statue of Lord Shiva and it’s a beautiful sight. A river flows along-side you while you’re driving up to the resort and you wonder to yourself — I’ve seen pics of the bungy, it’s over a river.. is this the one? .. I have planned to do rafting tomorrow from the resort, will it be in this river? .. and the rapids you see in the river excite you even more. There was this one place in the river where the water was really turning upside down, like in a washing machine, and i turned to my friend and said, “man, are u sure we can raft in these water?” , and the driver stopped 10 mtrs. ahead of it, took reverse (maybe cuz of some traffic or something) and we saw those rapids again …. It was like the driver wanted us to see that place again and get more scared or more excited or both. Read the rest of this entry »

In The Last Resort, I jumped and felt flew like an eagle with lots of delicious spaghetti  Bolognaise on my stomach. Wow nice!
