  • A Perfectly Organized and Unforgettable Trekking Experience

    We had an incredible experience with this trekking company on our 3-day Poon Hill trek. From start to finish, everything was flawlessly organized, exactly as agreed upon online. The communication with the headquarters was excellent, providing continuous support and ensuring that everything ran smoothly. A special mention goes to our guide, Mohan, who truly made this journey unforgettable. His deep knowledge of the mountains, friendly personality, and passion for trekking added so much value to the experience. He was always attentive to our needs, making sure we were comfortable, motivated, and enjoying every step of the adventure. His love for the Himalayas was contagious! We also want to extend our gratitude to Kamal, our driver, who was not only skilled and professional but also kind and accommodating throughout the trip. Traveling with him was a pleasure, and he ensured our journey was smooth and safe. Overall, this was an outstanding trekking experience, thanks to the perfect organization, great support, and an amazing team. If you're looking for a reliable and well-coordinated trekking company in Nepal, this is the one to choose. Highly recommended!

    The trip has been an absolute pleasure. If you have the chance to go to Poonhill for a night or more, please take the opportunity of buying this trek, as it is a must if you visit Pokhara. My wife and I were accompained by one of the best guides I’ve ever known, Ranjit. I just want to congratulate him since he has adapted his pace to ours, he’s given conversation throughout the jorneys. It is great to get to know kind and open-minded individuals like him. Thank you Ranjit, I hope we meet again. The overall evaluation of this trip is EXCELLENT, there’s nothing I’d change or improve. Ranjit, best guide ever.
