We had a great trip, our guide was super nice, we loved it! We will try to stay in touch with them, we loved the atmosphere, the kindness of the people we met, the authenticity of encounters. We were very lucky (thanks to our guide who planned it very well!) and we could go up to the basecamp because wether conditions were amazing.

Annapurna Base Camp trek

I was recommended by a friend who took their service last year and as he explained to me they were really experienced and well organized travel company. I did Annapurna Base camp trek with Bibek and he was excellent. The politeness of the people and welcoming smile of Nepali people made my trip more amazing and happy. The company it self is well established, taking care of us in every part - they are really caring and helpful people. We were five in total and Bibek was the only guide who managed time for all of us to explain each details to our queries. The porters were also polite and helpful, smiling most of the time. I would like to recommend this company to anyone who is planing their holiday in Nepal. I would definitely use their service again to trek in Everest Base Camp next year. Thumbs up Laxman, Bibek and the team.
