What people love about Budget Tours in Himalaya Mountains
- Annapurna Circuit Trek 15 Days
I had an amazing Annapurna circuit trek experience. wangchu Sherpa was lovely and more than a good guide but a good friend and made the experience much more genuine and enjoyable. He was fun and casual but professional when required, and did a great job of sorting out everything for us. Waangchu was also excellent, he's very knowledgeable and considerate, he would make a great guide one day. Couldn't have hoped for a better adventure.!
- Mardi Himal Trek
This was one of The best tours I ever did. There were two guides coming With me, both With different skills. One very knowledgeble and one very caring. Both took great care of me, made my holiday amazing and make me feel very confortable. Hard working man in a natural Way. Kind and open heart. I got picked up The First day when my Guide waa waving still enthousiastly even tho my flight got late and it took long time. He showed me The places around my area I was staying and The next day we went to Pokhara. On The Way he Told me a lot of information and Where we Can Go. They were very active and for me They had The exact same speed as me when hiking Which made iT I think comfortabel for all of us. They even carried my bag Which what not really needed. They were relaxt, you could have great conversations With them But Also just be Quite and Enjoy without The need of “must talk all the time”. The slippery parts since I just had sneakers on top They gave me a hand and They really listened if I wanted to buy something specific. The Way Back went fast and sad iT was Almost time to Go Back to katmandu and end of our hiking time together. Everything in The program was good. Not too less walking Also not too Much. You could explore very Well. I would really recommand this touring company! They are Also VERY responsable in messaging if you have questions. They reply very fast. Thank you so Much for The great experience! I Will never forget.
- Khopra Danda Trek 8 Days
Our recent trek to Mohare danda in Nepal with Sherpa Expedition and Trekking was nothing short of life-changing. From the moment we joined the team, it was clear that we were in the hands of true professionals who were committed to ensuring a safe, enjoyable, and unforgettable journey. As first-time trekkers in the Himalayas, we had plenty of apprehensions and uncertainties. However, the Sherpa Team immediately put us at ease with their knowledge, expertise, and attention to detail. They went above and beyond to make the trek feasible, safe, and enjoyable for everyone in the group. From providing us with comprehensive pre-trek information to ensuring that we had all the necessary equipment and permits, they left no stone unturned in their preparations. Our guide, Lakpa, was an absolute gem. He was honest and genuine on the trail, always prioritizing our safety and well-being. Lakpa's extensive knowledge of the region added a whole new dimension to the trek, as he shared fascinating insights about the local culture, history, and natural wonders. His calm and composed demeanor helped us navigate the challenges of high altitude trekking, and his quick sense of humor brought smiles to our faces even on the toughest days. One of the aspects that impressed us the most was Lakpa's professionalism and dedication to his role. He never compromised his abilities by indulging in any vices such as drinking or smoking. His commitment to maintaining his physical and mental capabilities as a guide was truly commendable and gave us complete confidence in his leadership. The Mohare danda Trek itself was a breathtaking experience. The beauty of the landscapes, with its rolling hills, terraced fields, and panoramic mountain views, was simply awe-inspiring. The tranquility and serenity of the villages we passed through, along with the warm hospitality of the locals, made us feel welcome and at home. It was a journey that allowed us to truly connect with nature and immerse ourselves in the rich cultural heritage of the region. our Mohare danda Trek with Sherpa Expedition and Trekking was the best trip we have ever had. The professionalism, expertise, and dedication of the Sherpa Team, along with the exceptional guidance of Lakpa, made it an unforgettable and life-changing experience. We are already planning our next adventure with them, knowing that we will be in the best hands possible.
