A comfortable trek in the Himalayas!
Thank You Nepal Hiking Team for a very comfortable, well-thought-out and smooth trekking journey for me and my wife! The Luxury Trek was the best trekking journey that we had ever done in our life! It was filled with top-notched accommodations that were very cozy and comfortable to stay in, and the trek itself was amazing and filled with best moments! The view of the mountains like Thamserku and the Kongdi RI from the guesthouse in the mountain was just an ethereal experience! From the first conversation with Mr. Ganga, everything was arranged and information was convoyed very professionally. We were provided the option for a customized itinerary as well, but the existing schedule for the trek was perfect for us to begin with. We had a good Kathmandu City Tour on our first day with the team, and then the rest of the trekking journey was filled with problem-free relaxing trek and hike. We really enjoyed places like Namche Bazaar and Tengboche and truly felt the beauty of the region while at Kalapatthar and when we were at Gorakshep getting ready to hike to the base camp. At instances, we were joined by a couple of other trekkers as well, and we loved the setting of staying at one giant table during breakfast with people from places like Japan and Canada. Stories were exchanged and it was just a lovely time that involved good socializing in the midst of the Nepali Himalayas. We had contact with the head office at Kathmandu the whole time and our guide was one of professional and competent skills. He handled all of the arrangements quite well and it was a problem free experience for us to follow his lead in the mountains without having to worry about anything. We completely enjoyed the mountains (the view of Everest, Lhotse and the Nuptse from Kalapatthar were just phenomenal!) and the villages (Sherpa people are the most warm and friendly people in all the world!) and that was thanks to Nepal Hiking Team and their impeccable organization of the services. It was a grand adventure that we are glad we did and are happy and fortunate to have done it with an agency that is the best in the country!

The Everest Luxury Trek was considered by my family for its best accommodations and services. While consulting Mr. Ganga about the trek as well, we are provided with good reassurance and everything was then arranged very quickly. The date was set on the time-frame that we wanted it to, but when the plans were changed about the initial date, Mr. Ganga was understanding and rearranged it for us, which was simply the best! Finally, when we arrived in Kathmandu in the beginning of May, Mr. Ganga was there to greet us at the airport. My family, consisting of my wife and my 15 year old son, were just over the moon about the whole thing and starting off the trek with a city tour was great for us to learn about the country as well. Overall, where services are concerned, we absolutely have no complaints whatsoever. We cannot praise the arrangements and the organization of the trip, everything was taken care of, it was pre-planned and we did not have to do anything extra except enjoy the journey. We were provided with our own rooms in the guesthouses, we enjoyed our breakfast and dinner in the front porch of the Yeti Mountain Home with the view of the Everest mountain right in front of us. The trek was comfortable and our guide was understanding. He adjusted the pacing and luckily, none of us suffered from altitude sickness, or any problem for that matter. The mountains were clearly visible for a majority of the trek and the villages like Namche Bazaar and Tengboche were lively and vibrant! It was the best trek and we are so glad to have been under such good care, management and guidance by Nepal Hiking Team! Thank you for a phenomenal trekking experience.
