Excellent trek, surprisingly challenging

I had a great time on this trek and Raj was an incredible guide with great communication throughout. His hospitality, and flexibility were incredibly welcomed and the trek was fairly challenging for one of the more 'moderate' hikes. Loved the experience and could not be happier!

Poonhill short Trek with Raman

I did this Trek of four days that I can summarize as " nature, adventure, stunning views, in fantastic company". We saw Incredible landscapes, crossed bridges and rivers on foot, climbed many stairs and had very good moments. My guide (Raman) was very attentive and gentle, and explained yo me everything I was curious about. Thank you very much for such a nice trip! Maybe one day I'll repeat with you ;-)

This is why Nepal is worth a visit

Our tour operator and Raman our guide made us this trek unforgattable. I think 20% commission for the price is too much considering the poverty in Nepal.
