Guest reviews from travelers on Adventure tours in and around Kathmandu
Linda | Traveled in December
The leader, Sudarshan (Su) made the trip extra special. He went far above that which was required for his role. His attention to detail, to our every need and always being there in case an issue presented itself was outstanding. In fact I wished quite a few times he would simply relax and allow himself some time to himself to rest!
Andy | Traveled in November
This trek is a great introduction to all that is Nepal. A full-on itinerary including short trek, history, wild life, city culture, rafting and fabulous views. Well lead with Udaya. A leader who went out of his way to make sure all went smoothly. To bear in mind....although not as many as the Annapurna sanctuary trek, stone steps are prevalent on this trek and at some tea houses clients had to share 4 to a room because of the shortage of rooms and the larger group (14) I would definitely recommend this walk for a first timer in Nepal or indeed a seasoned trekker (like me) who wanted a change from the "mainstream" trekking but who loves the country
Clint Eastwood | Traveled in November
We had an excellent trek around Manaslu. It was an amazing experience to climb from the jungle to 5000 meters above sea level. Our guides helped us with everything. We received a lot of advice about food. During the trek, we also got a glimpse of the local culture through our conversations. This trek will remain an unforgettable experience for me.

We are a husband and wife team who joined the over-55 Everest Base Camp 21-day tour and absolutely loved it. We had great weather, very comfortable accommodation, and a pace that was perfectly manageable thanks to our excellent guides. The food was varied and of a very high standard — there was never a shortage of tea or boiled water. The team of guides, porters, and cooks couldn’t do enough to make us feel safe, comfortable, and ready for the next day’s walk. Our leader, Pinout, was incredible — very knowledgeable about the region, history, and culture, and always happy to share his insights. He was caring, supportive, and strong as a leader. When we woke to bad weather at EBC, the team quickly adjusted our itinerary and led us safely down the mountain through the snow. Nothing was ever too much trouble. We also watched as the team supported another guest who needed help — well done to Demish and Pinout for their professionalism and kindness. It was a truly great experience, and we look forward to more adventures with this wonderful company.
Tomek | Traveled in October
Thank You. Everything was well organized. Especially big thanks to Sherpa Ongchhu and Nabin for excellent company. They are great people, always helpful and we really enjoyed their company. Sherpa Ongchhu is professional with exceptional knowledge about climbing and trekking and if we come to Nepal we want to trek with him.
Mandy | Traveled in October
Fantastic trip encompassing amazing views, scenery and local food. The accommodation in the tea houses was basic and electricity random but waking up to amazing views of the mountains or going by jeep to see the rhinos in Chitwan more than made up for being without our Western creature comforts. Our Guide and local trek leaders were brilliant, and went the extra mile.
