Excellent service from arrival to flight to Lukla and return from trek. My guide was terrific and did everything he could do for me reach my goal. My Kathmandu tour guide was perhaps the best guide I’ve ever had. He became a good friend who I stay in contact with.

EBC tour was great. Sabita was always available to us throughout the tour whenever we needed anything. Our guide Tshiring was excellent throughout the 12 day trek. We would have not completed the trek to EBC without his help and support. I would highly recommend female guide to anyone doing the EBC trek.

Had an excellent experience travelling and learning all about Nepal with Female Guide Holiday. As a solo female traveler I felt so safe from the moment I arrived. I had an opportunity to visit so many key places and immerse in the culture. Sabita, thank you for sharing your country with me.
