Unfortunately, due to bad weather this tour was not possible. My guide (Ghan) was helpful and supportive and offered an alternative. I still had a great day.

Great experience

Published on Oct, 2023

Great hike, great communication and attention. Lovely guide. Enjoyable conversation and very knowledgeable. Very easy to make the plan and the location was convenient. He kindly lent me, free of charge, walking sticks for the duration of my 12 day trip. I would highly recommend you use this guide. What's app is best for communication upon booking.

Stunning sunrise and scenery

Published on Oct, 2023

The hiking was an amazing experience from start to finish. Watching the sunrise at Nagarkot was absolutely unforgettable. The breathtaking scenery created memories that will last a lifetime. The tour was impeccably organized. My tour guide Ghan was not only friendly but also incredibly helpful. Throughout the hike, he provided insightful information about the area, making the journey even more enriching. Ghan's knowledge of the route was impressive. He showed me some secret spots that were perfect for capturing stunning photos. This hike is beginner-friendly and suitable for most fitness levels. It's an excellent choice for anyone looking to explore the nature. Highly recommended!

Awesome Trek!

Published on Sep, 2023

Great views and Ghan was so accommodating and flexible! We got to see a wide variety of sites and the stop for food was DELICIOUS.

Great walking tour outside Kathmandu

Published on Jan, 2023

This tour was a great way to spend a day outside the city. Ghan, our guide, was super fun and a great guy to spend time with. After an amazing sunrise looking at the Himalayas and a very good breakfast in a local restaurant, we went hiking for about 3:30h, where we had great views of the mountains and the valley. It was also a nice opportunity to see how is life in Nepal outside the city. Despite not being professional hikkers, we didn’t have any problem to complete the long walk. Would definitely recommend this tour!
