    - Review from Tripadvisor

    5.00

    Just completed a 12 day trek with my 17 year old daughter. Starting from Syaphrubesi, first visiting Langtang Valley and Kyanjin Gompa followed by Sing Gompa and the very special Gosainkund. We descended to finish at Dunche. Our guide Himesh and porter Bharat were like family, so kind and caring, always going the extra mile to ensure we were comfortable. We truly fave become friends over the past 12 days and I highly recommend their service and the service provided by Nepal Social Treks, five stars 👍.
