As a first-time trekker, the Ghorepani Poon Hill trek was an ideal choice. The route was well-balanced, offering a moderate level of difficulty without being overwhelming. The breathtaking mountain scenery, charming villages, and warm hospitality of the local people made the experience even more memorable. The services provided by the local operator were top-notch, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable journey. I highly recommend this trek to beginners and nature enthusiasts.
I like to thanks to Bashu and the Raj team who were our guide on the trek to Annapurna every things perfectly organized, best take caring and support especially for Indian Native meals on the trek. They were very helpful, smiling people and the cost is really affordable. They choose us good lodges on the trek and gave us very much general knowledge's of Nepali mountain culture. Free trip to Pashupatinath Temple is really awesome.
Thank you Bhai Ji Namaskar
Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek is a classic and rewarding trekking route in the Annapurna region of Nepal, known for its stunning views of the Himalayan peaks, charming villages, and lush rhododendron forests.
My journey with this trekking agency for the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek began with excellent communication and organization from the team. They provided detailed information about the trek, itinerary, and what to expect, ensuring that I was well-prepared for the adventure ahead. The team was accommodating and flexible in tailoring the trip to my preferences, making the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable from the start.
Upon meeting Nima Sherpa, my experienced and friendly trekking guide, I knew I was in good hands for the trek. Nima's expertise, knowledge of the region, and passion for the mountains were evident from the beginning, and his warm and approachable nature made him a fantastic companion throughout the journey. Nima not only guided us safely along the trail but also shared insightful stories, cultural tidbits, and interesting facts about the local communities we encountered along the way.
The Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek itself was a magical experience filled with breathtaking scenery and memorable moments. The trail led us through picturesque villages, terraced fields, and dense forests of rhododendron, providing a diverse and ever-changing landscape to explore. Each day brought new adventures and challenges, with the highlight being the sunrise hike to Poon Hill, where we were treated to panoramic views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges bathed in golden light.
The teahouses and lodges we stayed in during the trek were comfortable and cozy, offering a warm respite after long days of hiking. The local hospitality and delicious meals provided a taste of Nepalese culture and made us feel welcomed and at home in the mountains.
One of the most memorable moments of the trek was interacting with the local Gurung and Magar communities along the way, learning about their traditions, lifestyle, and unique customs. Nima's translations and insights added depth to these cultural exchanges, allowing us to truly appreciate the rich heritage of the region.
Overall, trekking the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek was a truly unforgettable experience. The seamless organization, expert guidance, stunning scenery, and cultural immersion made this journey a highlight of my travels in Nepal. I would highly recommend this trek and the services of this company to anyone looking for a memorable and enriching adventure in the Himalayas.
The Trek was excellent - the scenery was fantastic with the clear weather in mid-October. The trekking was sometimes challenging, but never too hard for fairly fit "almost-60-year-olds". The views of Everest and its surrounding peaks, especially from Tengboche Monastery, were fantastic. If you don't feel the need, or have the time, to go all the way to Everest Base Camp, this is the trek to take!
I wanna tell you about our super fun time on the Manaslu circuit. The views were amazing, and the paths were quiet. We saw different things, like pretty rhododendron forests and big snowy peaks. Our guide, knew a lot and helped us understand the people and nature there. He made sure everyone in our group had a good time, no matter how much hiking they did before. They told us about the trip on the first night, and they took us for a yummy dinner with dancing in Kathmandu. They took really good care of us, and if you want to have a cool adventure, I totally say go with them to explore Manaslu. It's like a hidden treasure waiting for you!
We did Gokyo Ri trek in August. Being it monsoon season, our biggest concern was the weather. We were ensured it is doable during the rainy season as well and since we had all tickets booked and everything arranged we decided to go with it and it turned out to be the best choice! It is very beautiful in August, all the hills are green and its very warm even at the higher altitude, means less packing. And for me personally, the main advantage was that it is quiet on the trek during off-season. We still met few people, which was nice, but not too many, so you get to enjoy peace and quiet. It also gives you a better choice for accommodation. Visibility is quite good as most early morning the sky is clear and if it rains it only starts late in the afternoon and we never got wet on the trek as our guide was very knowledgeable about the weather and we had always reached our lodge by the time the rain started.
I could not recommend this trek enough, it offers absolutely stunning views and Gokyo Ri is quite easy to do even being at a very high altitude. And don't be put off by monsoon rains.
A wonderful little try through the foothills of the Himalayas. Not particularly difficult, one just needs a little determination after a few days of walking downhill in snow. BEAUTIFUL views from Poonhill and throughout the entire trek. The hot springs are a great touch at the end as well. Beware of donkeys!
I have been working with Chris and his team on behalf of my clients for the past one year.
In a nutshell, I couldn't have picked a better partner.
His ability to manage situations (as things are extremely fluid during adventures), remain calm, problem solves and handle updates is beyond exemplary.
Thank you for everything that you do.
If you're planning to do a trek in Nepal, this local travel specialist is the way to go! I recently completed the Everest Base Camp Trek with them and had the most amazing experience. As a solo female traveler, I wanted to make sure to use a reputable company that I felt comfortable with and this agency far exceeded all of my expectations. They were extremely professional and quick to respond to any of the questions I had before the trip. Everything was so organized, from airport pickup/ drop off to the daily itinerary of the trek itself. My guide, Dipak, was also amazing! He truly went above and beyond to make sure that I had the trip of a lifetime. He was so knowledgeable about the region and about high altitude trekking in general. I felt extremely taken care of the entire time and also felt like I had a new best friend! He offered to help take photos and videos throughout the trek, which was amazing and even put together daily videos of each days highlights. I was able to truly just take the whole experience in. I hope to be able to do another trek with this agency and Dipak in the future!

Guide and Porter were excellent. Lodging exceeded expectations. Although the weather wasn't great, our experience is one that will stick with us for a lifetime. We were able to change our route to cater to our group and take it easy when we needed to. So grateful to Raj and Sandip for all that they did along the way.
