    • Most Amazing Experience!! Thank You, Dnes and Nepal Hiking Team!!

      Oh my goodness, where do I even start? This was hands down the best tour I have ever been on. I am honestly finding it hard to put into words what a wonderful and moving experience it was.

      My husband and I wanted to see Nepal for our honeymoon. However, we decided to explore it in a slightly less traditional way and opted for a city tour instead of a hike. We had the opportunity to see Nepal in-depth, and it was truly remarkable. We visited various parts of Kathmandu, including all the iconic temples. We also ventured to Chitwan, where we witnessed breathtaking rice fields, went on a safari, and even spotted rhinos and a tiger! Our journey took us to the city of Lumbini, the birthplace of Lord Buddha, and finally to Pokhara, where we were captivated by the beauty of the lakes and the awe-inspiring Annapurna Mountain range.

      Experiencing the beauty of Nepal in this way was an incredible gift that my husband and I will cherish forever. What made our experience even more magical was our amazing guide, Dnes. His passion and kindness were unparalleled, and he patiently answered all our questions, sharing with us a wealth of knowledge about Nepal's political history and the Hindu and Buddhist religions. Both my husband and I were deeply saddened when our trip came to an end, as we felt like we were leaving behind a lifelong friend.

      We must also mention our wonderful driver, Krishna, who ensured our safety during the long drives on challenging roads.

      The entire tour was impeccably organized, from our initial communication with the owner to the warm greeting we received at the airport upon our arrival. The accommodation and food were delightful as well. If you're considering this trip, do it! You won't regret it.

      Namaste - Mhari and Cam

    • Memorable Vacation

      Ganga, Balaram, and the team were fantastic; even when we had a 24-hour flight delay, they re-scheduled everything without fuss or fee. We had an excellent driver for just us (and guide where we had them).

      We even changed things along the way, and whether the driver, guide, or agent, they were more than willing to help and be flexible. :) The trip took in some hiking, some sightseeing, some relaxing, the jungle, and for each occasion and location, we were provided a specialist guide for the event/location. The hotels they chose for us were precisely our requirements based on the activity we were experiencing on any given day.

      Balaram even met us many times in person to round off the experience and ensure all was well and take honest feedback in person - the personal touch makes you feel even more appreciated and welcome as a customer. We would recommend anyone contact the team if they are planning a trip to Nepal.

      Thank you, guys, for a memorable vacation.
