This tour seems to have went amazing. Harry has been received well, and he interacts great with the people. 
I am happy he is staying an extra week to help rebuild a school. Considering it is only six weeks until the Invictus Games, it is certainly an extremely busy time for him right now. Along with consideration for his RPO (the cost and time demand on them), I would think the games were an obvious deciding factor on how long he could remain in Nepal.
I agree with Osipi, I don't see it as a PR stunt. Harry I think has really felt the loss of his military career and actually doing hands on work. The Games have given him a way to still feel connected to the military, but in some interviews he has said he misses getting his hands dirty. This is a great way for him to do so.

I don't understand why many think this trip is not well reported. I even saw news in WWD website wich is a fashion newspaper.
What a good news to see him help, wonderful to hear things like this.

Yes she is the boss after all.
Good to see that she has said yes to this request to stay an additional week to provide some hands-on help.

That only applies to Wills and Kate per some people 😏
I would think the planning for Orlando is done for the most part by now. Harry would have to be home for Granny's 90th and if the KP press people are staying over too. They have to be home before the India tour.

Prince Harry seems to have a wonderful instinct for people, and especially children. What a great ambassador!

Well, that is not precisely true. HM finds herself dining with all sorts of not so nice people because they are invited to the UK by the Government. The State Banquet is obligatory and she makes sure that the Palace and the BRF shall not be found wanting in service to their country. I am quite sure she has loathed more than a few dinner partners over the years.
The same goes for overseas tours. They are "invited" and the government, by way of the foreign office, decides what is politic to accept. HM, in consultation with the Foreign Office, decides who is best suited to send. Charles and Camilla, Anne, Andrew, or Edward and Sophie. HM now has (limited) access to three more royals, William, Catherine and Harry and, in this case, has managed to get him that little extra that he needs to feel of real use, a week working on a school.
The life and death crisis of the earthquake has long since passed, but the rebuild is still years from being finished. So Harry can do his thing without getting in the way of crisis teams.

Harry on royal tours like these is just wonderful he mixes with local people on a different level from most royals. The tours always seem fun and engaging whilst also covering all official duties required. He is such a shinning light for the royal family when he tours - say what you want about him, his private life and work rate, Harry is the best at the royal tour in the modern sense
I love the fact he is staying on for a few days to help with a charity rebuilding the community - Harry is able to do this, whereas other royals can't as they have families like Edward/Sophie & William/Kate. YES its a great PR move by KP (and boy do the press team at KP need some good PR) BUT it is also a very Harry move. He is that type of person and it is very much a reminder of how is mother was as well

Prince Harry: Official Visit to Nepal - March 20-23, 2016
It appears that Harry has enjoyed his trip to Nepal and it was nice to see all the photos. I also think it's lovely of him to extend the trip so that he can help the local community. He appears to be very friendly and down to earth.
It was nice of Kensington Palace to share Harry's video and captions - I'm now following their Instagram. Do we know if Harry took the photos above his captions, too?

The Kensington Palace twitter says he took the photos & the video from the helicopter.
