  • Nepal Trekking Tour Tsumvalley and Manaslu Circuit

    I travelled to Nepal alone and then went on an 18-day hiking tour in the Tsumvalley and Manaslu Circuits with a tour group. Sabbatical Explore Nepal has organized everything perfectly. All the wishes of everyone were taken into account. With a lot of love, peace and quiet and a very special charisma of the guides and porters, my hiking tour in the Himalayas became a very special experience for me. Not to forget the great city tour with our guide Shiva.

    Shiva, from Sabbatical Explore Nepal, is very friendly and knows his country perfectly. He can be trusted. He speaks very good English and German. And includes western communication. In addition to knowing the towers and paths, you can ask him all the questions about Nepal, its culture, and the rest.

    I met Shiva in his Hotel Kathmandu Grand. We have nice conversations and he surprised me with his best knowledges about Nepal Trekking, hiking culture and spiritual tours also to Bhutan and Tibet. Many people like to travel to Nepal some of them afraid to visit because think Nepal have enough facilities and honest people for tourism but I was lucky to meet shiva as a best tour operator and honest and helpful friend. He can make life easier in Nepal. He gave me very helpful information about trekking to Himalayas. I highly recommend him and his Tour trekking company Sabbatical Explore for the best Himalayan culture and culture tour in Nepal, Bhutan and Tibet.

    Everything exceeded my expectations. Beautiful landscape, amazing views. It was a great experience to observe the humble life of the people in the mountain area. Traffic is incredibly chaotic for a European, but here they manage it with complete calmness and consideration. I hope to have the opportunity to return again.

    They did not fail to help us, first they received us from the airport and prepared breakfast for us at the Grand Hotel Kathmandu, then they helped us provide jeeps to transport our luggage within a quarter of an hour as we were heading to the city of Besishahar to begin the adventure of climbing the Thorang La Pass. I recommend them, they have a great staff and they can help you plan your trip.

    Shiva had arranged for us a 12 days tour with a private driver through all the cultural places around Kathmandu, then trekking and sleep in the mountain in Pokhara, finally we went to Chitwan where we were amazed navigating through the river full of crocodiles, bush walking during which we saw several white rhinos and deer, my daughters spent almost two hours playing with baby elephants in the breeding center, and the awesome experience of the jungle safari. It was an unforgettable holidays, my daughters did not want to leave Nepal. Shiva is a professional, knowledgeable, and friendly person who schedule every detail from driver, hotels, tours, guide, meals, to make it one of the best holidays ever! Thank you very much Shiva for your kindness and professionalism!!!
