    This was truly one of the most memorable experiences of my life. Honestly, I never imagined I would be able to complete the Everest Base Camp trek,but with the incredible support from Recreation Holidays and Hari, it became a reality. A big reason we were able to enjoy and successfully complete this challenging 12-day trek was because of Hari. I can’t bring myself to call him a guide, he felt more like a friend and companion throughout the journey. He was there for us every step of the way, always making sure we were safe, comfortable, and fully present to take in the beauty of the Himalayas. Personally, I felt deeply cared for, and that made all the difference. On a trek like this, especially with a group or family, that kind of care and attention is exactly what you need. Thanks to this journey, I didn’t just find breathtaking views and a sense of achievement, I also found a great friend. I’m already looking forward to another amazing adventure with Hari and Recreation Holidays. Highly recommended!

    I can't speak highly enough about the Step on Himalaya team. It was a fantastic journey that was well-organized. I was really pleased with the SOH team's services, which well beyond my expectations. We took the 14-day Everest base camp Trek, and the entire SOH team's attention to consumers was fantastic from start to finish. The guide was fantastic, explaining each day in great depth and going out of his way to make us feel at ease. Also, the supports were quite kind and helpful. Hari and his firm, Step on Himalaya, come highly recommended by me.

    This was one of the most memorable experience for me. I must admit that, I never imagined myself to complete Everest Base Trek. One of major reason, we all could enjoy and successfully complete this trek is opting for "Step on Himalaya". We all were lucky to have Hari as our friend and companion (I won't call him a tour guide). He was there for us at every step we took on the Himalayas. Personally for me, he took a great care and made sure we all enjoy and more importantly stay safe on this difficult yet an awesome trek. This is all what one requires as a group or family when you plan such treks. I would highly recommend step on Himalayas. Thanks to this trek, I found a great friend. Looking forward to another amazing experience with Hari.

    To Step On Himalaya or not to Step On Himalaya That's the wrong question! The question is WHEN do you Step On Himalaya? I started getting to know Hari even before our trip had started, when I was asking many (some perhaps ridiculous) questions about our trip! He took his time to explain and answer all my questions and made sure I was set to go off on a great start. I knew I could trust him to have a fantastic trip. This led us to start our journey to Everest Basecamp for 10 days and multiple days in Kathmandu. In the city, Hari was always available to give us recommendations and help with many little things, like finding a place to get shoes cleaned, do laundry and get massages, etc. On the trail, we got to know each other even better. He's a very passionate guide. Hari is attentive and careful about each member of the team and made sure we were all well and able to enjoy the whole journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Step On Himalaya for any trip! Thanks for an amazing time, Hari! Mo

    Hari has been tremendous in his ability to lead & organize a trek around the Everest Region . He was able to read and understand our requirements and adapt his guide accordingly to our emotions and physical capabilities. Hari has strong knowledge of his surroundings and able to communicate effectively in the mountains. These abilities makes Hari a spirited and unique individual. We would highly recommend Hari to anybody who has an interest of the outdoors, the love of nature and fresh air!
