Amazing experience

  • Nancy Rollason
“I did the Annapurna base camp trek solo as a first trek. I had an excellent experience—communication beforehand was very clear and all my questions answered. Arrangements went smoothly from airport pick up to hotel and transport. I felt safe and well supported as a single woman. I was ill on the first day and both owner and guide were very caring. My guide, Sumba, was lovely. He looked after me every step of the way and took care of all the practicalities. Also the porter Kiran. I was very grateful to him for carrying my bag all the way up to base camp! I was able to realise my dream and reach the base camp and it would not have been possible without them.”

“The service is outstanding. They are very professional, supportive and enthusiasm. One of my friends had some problems with her health and the tour guides and porters and the tour owner took care of her with all of their kindness and arranged the best treatment for her. I highly recommend this local tour company and will for sure book their tour in Nepal in the future.”
Awesome guide, excellent tour company and amazing trek!

“We had an amazing time on the 11 day Everest Base Camp trek with this tour company. It was very well organised and our guide Razz was amazing and super fun and friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend him as a guide and his excellent tour company. They made us feel like family and were our biggest supporters from the start of the hike all the way to the end.”
