    We are the couple from the United kingdom and with great help from Sherpa Expedition and Trekking, we did the Kanchenjunga Circuit trek this October. It was fantastic during the whole 26-day trek since we really enjoyed the landscape, the Limbu villages. Both our guide and porter behaved professionally. We greatly appreciate Sherpa the Expedition and Trekking agency for organizing our impressive trek.

    This was our fourth hiking trip to Nepal and we knew exactly what we wanted for our Kanchenjunga Circuit trek. We began planning on Sept 18 for the trek and all contact with Sherpa Expedition in the office was very professional and responses quick. All questions answered truthfully and a good relationship was established. Final negotiations were smooth and we had a happy agreement for the trek. We met Ram and Kiran in the office in KTM along Ram was our guide. All the technical aspects of the trek were superb! Great Porters, Kahdka and Kalu, helped make the trek easier and Tek did a fantastic job as our Guide. We miss them already!! Use the Sherpa Expedition and Trekking Team and Guide Ram for all your trekking needs. They provided 100% of what we wanted and are very nice to deal with!! See you next year Ram for our Dolpo Trek!!!!

    Warm Hugs Thanks to Ram Barakoti, Khadgi and the rest of the Sherpa Expedition and Trekking team for a great experience. I almost didn't go last minute because I was worried about rain, flight concerns, and clouds ruining the trip. The weather turned out great, and this team did everything to make the experience go smoothly and splendidly. Ram Barakoti was an amazing guide, and his experience clearly showed in his knowledge, person-ability, and attentiveness. We were able to do the trek reasonably quick but safely and it was immensely rewarding and informative. My biggest fears of getting out in and out of Bhadrapur were quickly assuaged by the support of this team who clearly has the experience, flexibility, and the local connections necessary to help me navigate to and from all of my destinations with ease.

    “We are very much happy and satisfied with the excellent service of the Sherpa Expedition and trekking with very much friendly, kind and helpful guide and the staff with a high-quality experience. So we had a wonderful time in this trek with beautiful memories of Kanchenjunga trek with an astonishing view of wilderness and beautiful nature with wildflowers, rhododendron, orchid, wild animals like snow leopard, blue sheep, red panda, musk deer, and much more flora and fauna. In this trek Ram Barakoti, our guide was very much talented and friendly with the experience of guiding and mountaineering, in this trek, we visited both North and South Base Camp of Kanchenjunga which was pretty much breathtaking a view from both base camp of Kanchenjunga. And we hope to revisit Nepal for more Treks in the near future with Sherpa Expedition and Trekking team.”
