Amazing company and trek to Poon Hill, ABC, and Mardi Himal

First time in Nepal, and I quickly found that Nepalese people are wonderful, warm and welcoming, have incredible food and amazing mountains. Bal, my guide, and Nima, my porter, were wonderful throughout my solo 12 days hike to Poon Hill, ABC, and Mardi Himal. They both took great care of me, were always ahead on what was upcoming on our itinerary, and booked places that had excellent hospitality, food, and rooms. I had an amazing time with them and highly recommend them!!

Amazing team! Highly recommend!!!

The trek to Annapurna Base Camp was an unforgettable experience, full of breathtaking landscapes and moments I'll carry with me forever. We did this trip with Nomad, a Portuguese travel agency that organized everything with great care and professionalism. On the ground, we were guided by the amazing local team from Unique Adventure International - big thank you to them for making everything run so smoothly. Our main guide, Dev, was always professional, very kind, Nepali teacher, and fun to be around. Nima, one of the porters, stood out for being constantly present and willing to help - often accompanied the group with a calm, confident energy that made a big difference. Suman, also a porter, was a huge help throughout the trek, and Suzan, our photographer, captured some incredible moments and added great energy to the group. Dhanyavada to all the other porters! It was a truly special journey, and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves nature, culture, and adventure.

Amazing Trekking Experience in Nepal!

From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had an incredible adventure. What really stood out to me was the level of personal attention and care provided by the team, specially from Nima and Dev. They were always available to answer questions and ensure we were comfortable, making this trek an experience of a lifetime. I highly recommend their to anyone looking for an amazing trekking adventure in Nepal. Their professionalism, expertise, and passion for trekking truly shine through!

Amazing Annapurna Base Camp Trek with Unique Adventures

I did the Annapurna Base Camp trek with the help of this travel operator, and it was the best experience I could have wished for! Before arriving in Nepal, I had great communication with the company owner, Khum, via WhatsApp. He made preparations for the trek. It was super easy, answering all my questions quickly and clearly. His responsiveness gave me a lot of confidence before even starting the journey. During the trek, my guide Dev was absolutely amazing! His deep knowledge of the route and environment made me feel safe and supported the entire way—even in some pretty scary moments, like trekking through a snowstorm and avalanche danger zones. I would not have felt comfortable doing this trek alone, and I’m super grateful for his guidance, expertise, and great conversations along the way. As for the trek itself—it’s one of the most beautiful hikes I’ve ever done. The landscapes are constantly changing, from forests and charming mountain villages to snow-covered peaks. Reaching Annapurna Base Camp, surrounded by majestic mountains, was an unforgettable moment. I would definitely recommend this trek and this company to anyone looking for a well-organized, safe, and truly breathtaking experience!

Awesome trek to ABC

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.

Annapurna Base Camp

It was our first time to Nepal and trekking. Khum and Dev looked after us from start to finish. Dev organised everything day to day and looked after us in the mountains completely. He took us to wonderful tea houses and gave us a detailed briefing everyday. Dev re-organised out trip so than we could go to Chitwan at the end of our trekking. I can’t recommend Dev enough as a guide and we felt totally safe with him. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful country with us.

ABC Trek in March

We did the ABC trekking with Megendra from this local tour company and it was amazing! We had some great days, in what was our first trekking ever. The views were so beautiful and our guide was very kind and helpful. Megendra is a great guy and he is exactly the type of guide we were hoping for; energetic, friendly and always in for a laugh.

ABC and Kathmandu valley

We chose this local travel operator for our first trek in Nepal (ABC) under recommendation of a friend and we were totally satisfied! We had a great time, since the very first day. Khum came to greet us at the airport and escorted us to the hotel. During the trek, we were followed by the kind, warm-hearted and talented mountain guide Bal Kumar and our porter Ram. We had an AMAZING time, everything was well organized, we felt supported all the time and even when we asked to change something, our requests were taken under consideration and our wishes fulfilled. We highly recommend this operator and will for sure come back to Nepal in the nearest future 🙌 “Come as guest, go as a friend”🇳🇵

Annapurna Base Camp - Polish Himalaya group

I highly recommend this agency. we had a wonderful time trekking to the southern Annapurna sanctuary. Our guide Elmi Biswakarma is the best guide I have traveled with so far. Very well prepared physically and mentally. A wonderful man who knows the history and culture of the region. He willingly shared his knowledge and answered all questions. He was happy to help our entire group felt safe and cared for with him. If I ever go back to Nepal, I want Elmi to be my guide! Once again thank you for preparing our trip!

ABC Annapurna

The 8-day trek to the Annapurna Sanctuary was great. We were a group of 16 people with the best guide in the world. Elmi Biswakarma took care of us at the highest level. We always felt safe and that was the most important thing. I recommend our guide because he is a professional.

Trek to Annapurna Base Camp

The trek to Annapurna Base Camp was well organized. The porters and guides created a very nice atmosphere during the several-day hike. We will remember them all very fondly. We plan to return to Nepal again next year.

Second trek with this local travel specialist

Thank you Kum, Elme, Nuri, and the team at this local travel specialist for another great trek. I chose them for a second trek, because my first experience in 2019 was phenomenal. The planning phase communications were expedient and concise via email. Due to weather conditions I decided to wait in Kathmandu and see if I could fly to Lukla. The weather did not clear, and we started discussing options. This process, like the planning phase, was explained very clearly and I had several options. Understand that travel in Nepal, there may be circumstances beyond anyone’s control. I have found it is better to make the best available adjustment to your plans. Looking back those adjustments turned out perfect for my way. “A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving.” Sun Tzu I would like to say that my guide Elme did a great job of making sure I had clean water & sanitary food while trekking. He was knowledgeable in culture, plant life, and the geography of the area. He was always vigilant in making sure my needs were taken care of. Immense gratitude for my porter Nuri, always smiling and willing to help. Without his help I could not have achieved my goal. Thanks for a Great Trek

An Incredible Experience, Would Recommend

What a trek! We were a little unfortunate with low cloud for the first few days of our trek, but by the time we’d reached the top it was perfectly clear. The view was well worth the wait! Throughout the trek, our guide, Bijay, and our porter, Dawa, were incredibly helpful. Bijay was very knowledgeable about not just the Annapurna region but all things Nepal. He made us feel very accommodated throughout, going out of his way to get anything we needed. Although not speaking much English, Dawa was always very cheerful and happy to help with anything we needed. Overall, an incredible experience that I would wholly recommend.

AnonymousOn Oct 23, 2023

Excellent trek. 100% recommended

A truly brilliant trek, so many fantastic views. Hard work but worth it when you get to the top. The path is well trodden and you'll meet lots of friendly faces. Our guide Biijay was excellent. He pointed out landmarks and gave us background on the local culture, as well as a breadth of other information. He ensured we were cared for from start to finish, endeavouring to make sure all our needs were met. We also had a porter, Dawa, who put in a lot of good work to carry the bag we needed carrying. He didn't speak much English, but was always friendly and looking out for us, much like Biijay was. He was always willing to help.

Unforgettable ABC trek in late-Feb 2023

I went to the ABC trek in late-February 2023, which was unforgettable, with professional help from my guide Namgel and porter Sona. I was lucky to hike before the peak season and enjoyed every peaceful moment in the mountains. The view of Annapurna covered in snow during the late-winter season is gorgeous.

Best on the whim last minute decision of my life!

Most beautiful thing l've ever seen. I had hesitations trying to find the right one coming from Australia and having no idea, but going off reviews like this I chose to go through this agency and was given Dev the guide and so thankful I was. For the last 10 days I saw things that I can't put into words and at times wanted to cry. It was truly amazing, from the Mountains, to the people, the animals, to the environment. I also booked 3 days before hand and although it may have been a stretch on their end (sorry) they had no problems making it happen and being flexible 🏔️

Amazing ABC trekking tour

I really enjoy the trip and tour arranged by this local tour operator. First, the price is really nice compare to others. At the same time, the service they provided is amazing. The manager, staff and the guide they provided can speak English fluently and they explained everything clearly. I went to ABC trekking with them. The trip was amazing, and their service definitely improve the whole quality of the experience. I love to find them again.

An arduous but worthwhile excursion into a special part of the world. Megendra and the porter, Dilli, worked very hard to make me comfortable.

Amazing Annapurna

I’ve travelled and worked all over the world, and this trip has definitely been a huge highlight of my life. Everything was planned brilliantly, and our guide and porters were so kind, friendly, efficient and just amazing. The trip itself was spectacular, the scenery beautiful and the culture mesmerizing. While in Nepal, there was a snow in, in a different region, and Khum worked tirelessly to organizer helicopters and get the trekkers out, with huge success. You can feel that you are in safe hands when dealing with this company. I will definitely be back to Nepal to visit again, and will definitely use this local travel specialist.

Great trek and great guide/porter provided by the tour company. Trail is quite diverse in scenery and definitely recommended. Generally sunrise is the most beautiful so Poonhill and base camp sunrise should be a must if you're in the area.

Awesome trek with an awesome company!

I was looking around for a great experience during my stay in Nepal. Something I hadn't done before. I stumbled across the famous Annapurna Base Camp trek by accident but knew in an instant, this is it! First I thought about going out into the streets of Thamel and look for a good traveling agency. But, I thought to myself, I want this to be perfect, so I went on the internet and found Bookmundi. Now, Bookmundi recommended this trekking company .From day one the company took good care of my group and me. We arranged shortening our trip to 10 days instead of 12. This we did so we could spend more time in Pokhara. A great idea if I look back on it now. The guide and my guide in training (porter) were two awesome guys with a good knowledge about the trekking area. We had many laughs and had so much fun together. The trek itself is a real adventure which takes a hold of you the moment you venture out to Nayapul. The company made it into a smooth ride and I am very thankful for that. The overall experience was great and I recommend booking with this company.
