Trekking in Everest Region
Dear Future Trekkers:
After more than 20 years of travel, it was such a pleasure to find Nepal Hiking Team. As a solo traveler, I was in caring and attentive hands from the first correspondence through a month's worth of trekking and travel. Ganga, Hari and Bhim worked tirelessly, attending to every detail of my journey. I received sound advice on where to trek, a comforting ear when weathered in for days, and support in dealing with cancelled international flights, SIM card stress and the ups and downs of travel during the off-season.
NHT arranged all accommodations and required permits, insurance and park fees. Most of the time, I felt like a dear friend as opposed to a mere customer, something I haven't experienced with other guiding agencies. This is a company that needs its place in all the travel books and web sites. Whether you are with a group or traveling alone- if you want personalized service from experienced, sincere and kind individuals who truly enjoy what they do, then you have found the right place with Nepal Hiking Team.

Trekking in Everest Region
“ What a fantastic trek we had with the Nepal Hiking Team. They organised all the requirements for us and the guide and Team staff were very professional. Their choice of teahouses was very good as was the way they combined all the places we wanted to see – Gokyo Lakes, Cho La, Kala Patthar and EBC, and finally an attempt on Island Peak. It helped us with fitness and acclimatisation plus gave us a chance to see all the spectacular sights in the Everest Region. I recommend the Nepal Hiking Team as a well-run and professional company which delivered to a high standard.

Gokyo Lake + Chola Pass + Everest Base Camp Trek
Hi to Everyone at the Nepal Hiking Team.
I can’t thank you enough for organising an exciting and spectacular trek to Gokyo Ri, Chola Pass, E.B.C and Kalar Pathar among others. A special thanks to my guide Bhim for the making all the right decisions when it mattered most. We where fortunate to have clear skies for the trek to the top of Gokyo Ri, Kalar Pathar and going over Chola Pass. Memories I will never forget.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Nepal Hiking Team for any adventure in and around Nepal. I hope to be back next year.
Thanks again,

Hello Ganga,
Huge greetings from Doha (at work) presently!.
Apologize for the delays on getting back to you... but things are kind of hectic these days.
I can't thank you guys enough for the great time I had while I was there. It was quite an experience that I'll surely remember with a lot of joy and very glad I decided to go with your team.
Very interesting how at first you just feel tired... then you feel bad when the altitude starts to kick in... But at the end I was feeling so great, I just wanted to keep on walking! Great place to visit and enjoy, and a lot of awesome pictures as souvenir!.
Want to congratulate also Hari and Bhim for taking such good care of us, and doing a great job with showing us your country. Bhim did a great job when only the two of us were left, and I'm quite sure not too far from now he will be a great lead guide. Don't know if Hari told you about the phrase of the trip... "completely nice"... hahaha.
Will let you guys know for sure if going back to Nepal next time! All the best for you guys, and hope the future is filled with a lot of great things and success!.
Cheers

Gokyo Lake + Renjola Pass Trekking in Nepal
Wow! I am having difficulty expressing my experience into words! Let\'s start at the beginning I suppose. Being a 20 year old woman, I was feeling a little apprehensive about trekking solo in Nepal. Nepal Hiking Team assured me (and my parents) that they would take great care of me and they sure delivered! Not only did I really enjoy the quiet, solemn moments on the mountain, but I really bonded with my guide. I felt wonderfully at ease during my trek, thanks to my guide and the generous tea house owners!
The Gokyo trek in particular was phenomenal! I was physically challenged and rewarded. Every step of the way was a new visual experience. If you choose this trek do not leave out the 4th and 5th lakes!!! The views and sense of accomplishment cant be described here. You have to get out and DO IT!
Thanks Nepal Hiking Team!

Dear Balaram Thapa
I am writing to express to you and other readers that I had a completely wonderful trekking trip in Nepal in March/April, 2011, organized by your company, Nepal Hiking Team. My friend and I spent 14 days trekking with your company guide Hari and two porters into the Upper Mustang Valley near the border of Tibet.
I have done a considerable amount of mountaineering in Canada and am used to great views, but this trip was truly spectacular for its beauty - views of distant high snow capped mountains and trails that went into deep gorges with high cliffs of orange and red - each trail pass topped with a welcoming cairn and prayer flags. The dry desert area also allowed for wide open vistas and views of interesting rock formations. I have not been anywhere with so many interesting sights - there was a new picture to be taken every 15 minutes of every 7 hours we were walking. The cultural sights were also amazing - including the terraced fields, rock wall enclosures, religious monuments, monasteries, stone and mud houses, hilltop ruins of forts, Buddhist caves, irrigation canals, pack horses, goat herds, little tree plantations, yaks, and cattle, little villages with narrow alleys for people and animals, and children occaisonally to greet us. Some monuments were over 500 years old.
The Nepal Hiking Team were wonderful for organizing a somewhat customized trip for us two clients - they were very flexible as to timing and where we wished to go. Our guide Hari was very well organized, made careful preparations, was very happy, always tried to please and got along very well with our two porters and owners of the guest houses we stayed in. Hari did a lot of the cooking at the guest houses to provide us with some Western style meals - great cooking Hari!
Although not essential, a guide is really valuable for organizing logistics and on treks - finding accommodation and organizing meals, freeing you up for viewing. It was OK to have a porter help carry the gear too.
I would highly recommend the Nepal Hiking Team to anyone wishing to sight-see in Nepal - they did a great job for us.

Everest Trekking + Island Peak Climbing
During September 2010, me and my two collegues from medical school completed the Everest high passes trek + Island Peak sumiting during a 25 day period with Nepal Hiking Team (NHT).
Without hesitation I give NHT my highest recomendations. I recommend NHT to everyone intending to visit Nepal thanks to their frendliness, helpfullness, knowledge and professionalism.
From the moment on arrival at Kathmandu international airport we were welcomed and transported to the hotel which we were staying at before taking off to the mountains. (Hotel del-Annapurna, one of the finest hotels in Kathmandu housing all thinkable facilities needed. And with an outstanding breakfast buffé:-)
At every step of this trip we were extremely well taken care of. We were provided with a highly experiend, and very good English-speaking mountain guide. Thanks to his huge experience we got loads of nice information about the local people, the landscape, the mountains etc etc.
Everyone reacts different to high altitude and our guide was very careful to make sure that we were feeling well every day while ascending further up the mountains. He had all knowledge nessecary to notice and treat/prevent altitude related problems.
(As a 5th year student of the Medical University of Gdansk (Poland) I believe it is essential that you get a guide which is familiar with altiture sickness, because this can happen to anyone if not beeing careful enough.)
Food and accomodation was way over our expectations. Every day on the trek we got to chose whatever we wanted from the menus at the local tea-houses. Every night we were accomodated in very comfortable beds. At the summiting of Island Peak we were provided with an exellent climbing guide and good climbing equipment.
We are all very much looking forward to go back to Nepal, to explore other regions of this amazing country and when we get back we will be very happy to be clients of Nepal Hiking Team again.

Greetings from Poland!
Finally at home! We would like to thank you very much for the time we've spent together. It was a real pleasure to trek with you to amazing Kingdom of Lo Manthang. We are happy to tell that we've already recommended your team to our friends. All of us are considering coming back to Himalaya Mountain. We hope that we could meet again in the future
It would be a pleasure for us to visit other regions with you, our friends! We don't know particular time of hypothetical visit, but I'm sure we'll keep in touch, so we can inform you about all our plans. 3 days spent in Chitwan National Parkwas organized perfectly, as well as the trek of course. Thanks for that too.

Thanks so much for providing excellent service for our recent trek around the Annapurna Circuit. We look forward to using your company again if and when we return to Nepal.

Gokyo Lake + Chola Pass + Everest Base Camp Trek
I can highly recommend the Nepal Hiking Team. I have booked through that company already 2 times and if I go back to Nepal I will book through Nepal Hiking Team again.
My first experience was in November 2007. I had booked a single trekking for Annapurna circuit. It was perfect organized, the guide was very professional, and spoke very good English. Guide and porter were well equipped which is in my opinion also very important.
In April 2010 I had booked another trip through this company. I did a 20 day trip including Everest base camp, Kalapattar, Gokyo, and passing Chola pass. A single trek. Also this time I was completely satisfied. Again I had a very professional guide and you could tell straight away that he has many years of experience.
The company is very professional. Guides seem to me as I had 2 times the experience all very professional and speak very well English and guides know the region very well. They are also very responsible and really take care for customers I cannot think of something that was not good or could have been better. For me it seems this is really a great company helpful responsible reliable very professional. One day I will go back to Nepal and there is no way that I would give a try to another company, because this one I had already 2 times an excellent experience.

With sympathy and experience of our guide Narayan and commitment and perseverance of the porte Dhan our journey to Gokyo Peak was an unforgettable experience. As honeymoon we could not ask for more!
Thanks again!
See you at our next Trekking in Nepal.

Annapurna Base Camp Trek (15th Feb 2011)
Hi Ganga
I wanted to thank you and everyone on my trek to Annapurna Base Camp that made my trip awesome! The trek was better than I expected and everything went smoothly from start to finish. Raj was brilliant and well organized. He was always making sure that I was on comfortable and taken care of. The porters (Nabin) did an amazing job and were very friendly. It was fun to join together in the evenings and play cards together. Thank you for making my holidays special. Hope to come back again for Nepal Trekking with my family.
