Reviews
Graeme Jones , 37 Newton Street North Epping, NSW Australia
Nepal Hiking Team are the most proficient group I have dealt with, the guide was patient and flexible and the services were awesome and we had wonderful experience.
We experienced an amazing 16-days tour of Nepal and made a trip to Kathmandu, Chitwan, Pokhara as well as Poon Hill Trek organized perfectly by Ganga and his team.
Professionally, I too organize tours. With no doubt at Nepal Hiking Team Ganga and his team is the most proficient group I have dealt with.
No matter what time of day, Ganga was all-time ready to meet as we reached or departed from Kathmandu. Our experienced guide Raj was patient and flexible enough when any changes were required in our hiking plans.
All the accommodation service provided was appropriate matched our request and the amount we paid.
In summary, I can totally agree with the other tour reviews of NHT and highly recommend Nepal Hiking Team.
