Arjun is an amazing guide. He’ll take you to fantastic places and also teach you a lot about mountains and Nepal. I recommend you to choose Arjun. He will not disappoint you, trust me.
I did the ABC Trek in December 2019. Was an amazing experience and the trek was stunningly beautiful. My guide Deepen had a great knowledge of the mountains and was very attentive to my needs. He had a good understanding of what different clients are capable of after watching them on day 1 and then made sure the trek was suitably challenging but not out of their comfort zone. I always felt that safety was a priority and when extreme bad weather came in when only a few hours from our ABC destination, I was comfortable with the decision not to risk it. No one went up the mountain that day. The trek was fun, heaps to see, lots of people to meet along the way and Deepen always discussed the plan for the following day the night before, so I felt engaged and knew what to expect. Overall a great trip, would highly recommend but make sure you take some very warm clothes if travelling in winter. I'm thinking myself of planning another trek.
The whole team at World Expeditions were fantastic from the office staff, the porters, kitchen staff, sherpas and the on the on the ground meet and greet staff were all excellent _ I cant commend the process enough and felt safe and well informed the whole time.Many thanks
Mustang area is great, few visitors, beautiful monasteries and great landscapes!
Bhutan is just perfect! I would recommend everyone to try these destinations.

The local tour operator provided a very good, friendly and sensible guide to accompany me as a solo traveller going to poon hill circuit. The office was very organised, confirming a price quote quickly so that I could make arrangements. I'd recommend this trek, preferably out of the busiest season. I'm sure this company would make a very good tailor made tour for individual needs at any time of year.

I am back at my office now after 12 days trekking and still dreaming with our trekking around Anapurnas :-) We were there the first 2 weeks in September and fortunately had only 2 days rain. The view, the landscapes, the mountains, the mountain refuges... everything was perfect! And special mention to our GREAT guide Pawan who was always paying attention to anything we needed! Thank you Pawan and Dil
