Firstly, we had to thank Nepal Mountain Trekkers, especially Shiva (our guide) and Bishal (our porter) for making our dream come true. We finally made it to Annapurna Base Camp. Suman greeted us warmly at the airport, setting the tone for our incredible journey. Shiva was our constant companion throughout the seven-day trek, ensuring our comfort, safety, and enjoyment. His extensive knowledge of the region was invaluable. He also suggested some quick actions and solutions when we had any problems, to make sure we were safe and comfortable. We very enjoy all the way to the base camp. The views are stunning, this is my first time looking at these snow-capped mountains in real life. After all, we learned a lot about Nepal's culture, and cuisine. We highly recommend this company and look forward to returning in the future. Thank you all.

We had a great experience with Shiva. He knew everyone at every Guest House, he gave us the best rooms in each of them, he explained everything we asked him about… If I go back, I would ask for him to be my guide 100%!

Trekked ABC trek using Nepal Mountain trekkers. From initial discussions, the organization was made easy. They listened to what we wanted and also helped to arrange everything from flights to airport pickups and city tours for no cost (city guide was a charge). They are super knowledgeable, trustworthy and go above and beyond to give you a great trek. The team (guide and 2 porters) were excellent. Dependable, helpful, fun to be with (dancing, singing, would play cards in evenings with us) but would work so hard all the time to make sure you were comfortable and happy. Highly recommended. Management team work hard for the community and their clients. Above all they care. Thank you to the wonderful team.

What can I say, it was my 2. Nepal trip and it was perfectly planned by Ramesh down to the smallest detail. Even from Germany, an answer to any questions or plans that arose very quickly came back. As great as the planning went, it continued with the trekking to Annapurna Basecamp. It was just fantastic and thanks mainly to our great experienced guide Pralad. This one was absolutely professional in all matters and I can only recommend him. He promptly had an answer to all questions regarding Nepal and the mountains. Nepal Mountain Trekkers absolutely deserves 5 stars, as everything has been clean since landing in this great country. I will definitely recommend Nepal Mountain Trekkers and especially the super nice guide Pralad if my friends are interested in flying to Nepal. Thank you for this great planning
