I used this operator for my Manaslu trek as I had previously engaged them before. They instilled great confidence in my group, some of whom had never trekked nor been to Nepal before. I wasn't disappointed and plan on engaging them again for a trek this year.
I had a great trip and ended up having a great group! I was a solo female traveler. I shared room in the tea houses with another solo female traveler. If you are a light sleeper, bring earplugs (dont think you can buy them anywhere) because walls are very thin. Great trip overall. Some days were harder than others, but was expected. Be physically and mentally prepared! You can do it! Worth the great views and photos in the end! :)
Very well organized and without doubt the most wonderful and amazing adventure! I would strongly recommend the local operator and its people. Please ask for Raju as your guide! He's such a great, positive and inspiring person, he will make your trip the best you can imagine. Raju knows a lot about the mountains, culture and history of Nepal, he's very gentle, organizes everything precisely and brings good and positive energy into the day. Raju is by far the best guide I have ever met! Together with Surbraj (porter) they make a great team. Both helpful, reliable and very attentive. Raju knows what hospitality means and made this trip a great experience. Thank you Raju, you are the best (and a rockstar!). Accommodation, food, planning and support, all amazing! Would highly recommend the company (Upendra) and Raju to anyone who wants to experience the Himalaya the best way possible! And thank you Subraj, for carrying my luggage and supporting me to reach Kala Patthar! You guys are amazing, just as Nepal is! Big hug, Annelieke
