Himalayan Social Journey provided us with a wonderful level of care and attention on our tour around Nepal and to Everest.Certainly the helicopter flight to Everest was a truly magnificent experience and we cannot praise our pilot enough in his professionalism. Our 2 guides Dependra and Diffam were always attentive, friendly and accommodating. The accommodation at Gokarna , a favourite of ours. Internal flights well organised with Yeti airlines and accommodation in Pokara was made very special by the staff . We can certainly recommend Himalayan Social Journeys for a very memorable tour of the stunning Himalayan country of Nepal.
