- 489noell0 contributionsNar Phu Kang La and Thorong La Trek - Nepal's Best Kept Secret!Our trek with Nepal Trekking Experts was the best experience, from our first contact with Rajesh to finalize our customized package, throughout our time trekking the remote landscape to learn about the culture and history, during a Safari to finish up our amazing time in Nepal, including right up to our departure. Great communication with Rajesh and Ganesh ensured every detail was covered. Our outstanding guide, Ganesh, was professional, knowledgeable, safe and well informed. His many years of experience guiding proved invaluable when we were faced with difficult decisions due to unexpected weather. Safety was always the priority. Our porter, Gakul, was an integral part of our team, so strong, fun and a pleasure to share time with. The teahouses and meals during the trek as well as the hotels in Kathmandu, Pokhara and Chitwan were all of the highest quality. We simply could not have been taken care of any better. You will not regret trekking with Ganesh, as he is the BEST!!Written October 10, 2024
- wkirgw0 contributionsGreat experience with Nepal Trekking ExpertsWe did the Annapurna Circuit with side trek to Tilicho Lake. Everything about this trip exceeded our expectations! Rajesh is very personable and was responsive to all of our questions and needs in preparing for the trek. He answered questions promptly and thoroughly and was transparent with information. Because of this, we were never caught off-guard or encountered anything unexpected. We cannot say enough good things about our guide, Basanta and porter, Uttam. They took very good care of us throughout the trek and made sure everything went smoothly and safely. They were very knowledgeable and efficient, but also could be humorous and playful—this was a real boost on more strenuous days of the trek. We wholeheartedly recommend Nepal Trekking Experts. They made our trip very memorable from start to finish!Written October 2, 2024
- Explorer371114625300 contributionsAbsolutely amazingI did the Manaslu Circuit in early September with my partner that includes a walk to Manaslu Base Camp and the Tibetan border. It was an absolutely fantastic experience and we had a lovely group of fellow adventurers. The organiser was Rajesh who communicated wonderfully. Went through the kit list with us and took us out for a meal then day before. Our guide was Lok who is a legend. He was extremely experienced. He taught us lots about the local area/culture. He also took us to several temples at our request, which I really enjoyed. He was very calm and did not rush us but kept us on schedule! Also a very funny guy and had great fun playing card games with him in the evening. Chhwang and Gautam were our porters. I have no idea how they carried all that weight but remained so energetic and cheerful throughout. They were always smiling. We seen magnificent views, amazing wildlife, met interesting people, ate wonderful food and did I personally was able to do lots of 'questionable' dancing. I wish Chhwang, Lok and Gautam all the best!Written September 22, 2024
- M1196DUmilan_0 contributionsEverest Base Camp Trek with Nepal Trekking ExpertsWe did the Everest Base Trek with Nepal Trekking Experts in September 2024. Everything went more smoothly than we expected. At first we wanted to book only the Kathmandu - Lukla return flight tickets through the agency but we ended up booking a guide as well what proved to be a immensely good choice. Our guide Resham Neupane was always ready help us in whatever we needed or were curious about. He is completely fluent in English so there were no misunderstandings considering the language barrier. We even became a good friends rather than just clients with a guide. We even met in Kathmandu after the trek and had dinner together. During the trek we always had breakfast or dinner, talked a lot and learned about each other’s country. He even suggested us a bonus hike to Ama Dablam base camp, which is not on a regular EBC itinerary. We happilly agreed and enjoyed this little half-day hike as sell. Resham is overall a very good guide, passionate about his job and about the local nature and mountains, always ready to make a joke, explain anything or even take care of any serious situation that can happen during the hike (injury, altitude sickness, Kathmandu - Lukla flight cancellation etc.) Therefore, if you choose Nepal Trekking Experts, I sincerely advise you to book Resham as your guide. If you want, contact me and I can send you directly his phone number. Or contact Rajesh from Nepal Trekking Experts office: nepaltrekkingexperts17@gmail.com In addition, I definitely think that you should book a guide for your trek as you get more peace of mind in case of any trouble and you also get a local person who gives you great insight into Nepalese traditions, culture and nature. And what about the weather on a trek ? We did the hike from September 5 to September 18, so we expected some rain, as the beggining of September can still be rainy but we were lucky. Each day the weather was excellent, we have seen all the mountains and successfully completed the trek. The weather was the same every day with clear skies in the morning, some accummulated clouds thoughout the day and rain only during night. So if any of you are considering the beggining of September for EBC trek, do not hesitate as you will be awarded with much less tourists (thousands of trekkers are flocking to EBC during season time) on the paths and in hotels, which will help you enjoy your trip excellently.Written September 20, 2024
- epope120 contributionsManaslu Circuit in Sept 2024I did the Manaslu Circuit trek in early September. I was undecided on which trek to do so I reached out to Rajesh at Nepal Trekking Experts after reading good reviews on trip advisor. Rajesh was extremely helpful, able to answer my questions and helped me join with a small group of other travellers. We had an awesome team with our Guide Lok and porters Guatham and Chwayyan, they were experienced, thoughtful and great communicators. It was a fun group dynamic and we all played cards and ate popcorn together in the evening. They became more like friends as the trip continued! I highly recommend requesting all 3 of them for your trek. We had a few days of rain but otherwise the weather was good, quite hot in the beginning and getting cooler as we hiked higher. Rajesh was helpful in checking what gear we would need before our trip left. The route of the circuit was well thought out, and we had a few nights in the same location so we could do some longer day hikes up to the manalsu base camp and to the Tibet border. This was helpful to adjust to the altitude and it meant we could hike without needing to take our big backpacks! Another great tip was to share a jeep to reach the start point of the hike, this saved us a lot of time and meant we could be flexible with traffic and landslides. Lok helped us catch a bus at the end of the trip from Besisahar to Pokhara so we could relax for a few days. I have only positives things to say about my experience with the whole team at Nepal Trekking Experts. I would highly recommend a trek with them, and if I return to Nepal they will be the first group I contact to arrange another.Written September 19, 2024
- Roam659156681070 contributionsAmazing experience on the Manaslu Circuit Trek - Excellent and trustworthy company!We did the Manaslu Circuit Trek in September 2024 with Nepal trekking experts. Everything about the experience was exceptional and I would highly recommend this company and the Manaslu circuit trek. Rajesh was very easy to communicate with via email and it was very nice to meet him in Kathmandu on arrival where he discussed the trek in detail , going through the itinerary and kit list and giving advice. The hotel in Kathmandu was lovely and airport pick up very smooth! Our guide Lok was an incredibly experienced guide as well as being knowledgable, kind, warm and organised. I felt 100% safe in his hands and we also really felt that his experience and the fact he is from the manaslu area added to our experience. We were in a group and had 2 porters between 5 (Gotham and Schwanng) who were both incredibly hard working, professional and we enjoyed their company greatly ! The experience of the company in this trek really showed - I felt we were always in the best teahouses and our guide would give us advice on what food was best to have in each place as well as teaching us bits about the area and the culture. The whole team had great knowledge of the whole area. From meeting others on the trek using different companies I truly feel that Nepal Trekking experts was the best ! It was also lovely to get to know our guide and porters - often playing cards together in the evenings. The circuit trek is incredibly beautiful. It is challenging and the early days are long but the itinerary is planned very well to help you adjust to the altitude. The trek is absolutely stunning - travelling through jungle, small villages and then up to the high mountains. Highlights were the trip to the Manaslu base camp and the Tibet border. Doing this trek has been one of the best experiences of my life and I would recommend this company to anyone considering doing it!Written September 16, 2024
- U9787WPmariop0 contributionsHidden gem with a trustworthy agencyIt’s always difficult to trust someone from another country in advance having to pay a lot of money and also your vacation days. I chose this company because of the google reviews and also a Spanish youtuber who shares his experience and you can see how his trek went. In my case, everything went just fine. The owner is a really kind and attentive person. He is always there for you no matter what the issue is. I chatted a lot via whatsapp with him from Spain. He advised me on my trek (Manaslu circuit) and told me honestly all the pros and cons. He has a fully competent staff that can be adapted to the experience. All arrangements for the trek and also our stay and Kathmandu were coordinated by them. I was traveling with my girlfriend who does not speak English but they did their best to make her to have the best experience possible. They accomplished their goals. In the end it is just a matter of trust to choose a trek agency, and I think this is a trustworthy company. I fully recommend this agency and I personally want to encourage people to do the Manaslu circuit because it is still an authentic experience compared with other treks. Totally worth it!Written September 12, 2024

- annasF1969VD0 contributionsStunning Kanchenjunga Circuit TrekWe, two 25 year old women from Switzerland, did the Kanchenjunga Trek in May 2024 with Ram as our guide and Dhana Hang as our porter. This trek was an allover positive experience and Nepal Trekking Experts was an exceptionally good company! This wonderful hike leads from subtropical forests to the high mountains and is therefore very varied. The division of the stages done by Nepal Trekking Experts and the earlier start of walking compared to other organisers allows you to fully discover and enjoy the diversity of the region. The duration of the individual stages and the acclimatisation days are planned in such a way that the hike is feasible and enjoyable despite its length. It was the first trek in Nepal for both of us, with only one of us having any high mountain experience, and we hadn't done much training beforehand. With a good basic constitution and sure-footedness, the difficulty of the trek was easily manageable - at least at this time of the year with there not being any snow. The organisation by Rajesh was perfect. Everything went smoothly and the communication and cooperation was uncomplicated and courteous. Rajesh's open, friendly and professional manner made you feel that you were in very good hands and with him you always had a competent and helpful contact person even after the trek. Our team on the road was also perfect. Ram, with his open, fun and communicative personality combined with his experience and knowledge, is the perfect guide and made the trek an unforgettable experience. Thanks to him, we were able to really immerse ourselves in the culture and get in contact with the local people as well. Not only did we visit two Buddhist monasteries along the way, but we were also invited to tea and coffee by various locals. Ram also responded competently and supportively to minor problems during our trek. Dhana Hang, our porter, completed our team. With his caring and helpful nature as well as his good local knowledge - he comes from a village in the Kanchenjunga region - he was a great support. At the evening card game rounds he characterised the good mood with his smile. Thanks to the great team from Nepal Trekking Experts, our trip was a wonderful, unforgettable experience and we are already planning our next trekking holiday in Nepal, where we will of course be travelling with Nepal Trekking Experts again!Written August 14, 2024
- Kendall Y0 contributionsMonsoon Season Everest 3 High Passes TrekGo with Nepal Trekking Experts. You won’t regret it. Did a monsoon season (early June) Everest Three High Passes trek with Prakash (my guide) & had the best time. I previously went with another tour group to do the Annapurna Circuit but ended up switching because the customer service & information didn’t compare to Rajesh & his amazing company. From SAFETY, planning, packing, transportation, logistics, food, & shelter; Rajesh patiently walked me through the two week adventure & picked a specialized guide just for me. Most importantly, Rajesh was extremely transparent throughout the whole process & did not make me feel pressured to commit whatsoever. Rajesh & Prakash kept me safe, fed, & happy the entire way through with walking poles & comfortable tea houses with friendly locals. After having such a great experience & quickly adapting transportation plans during the Monsoon season, I couldn’t thank them enough. Prakash is a great guide that knows the routes by heart, manages the transportation logistics like a pro, & even became a good friend along the way. Prakash has done the 3 passes trek over 40 times, with many more treks done during Monsoon season. If you want to feel safe, he’s your guy.Written August 4, 2024

- Culture043054628540 contributions5 weeks around Gurkha Region, Manaslu and ABCI did the Manaslu Trek for 20 days in May 2024, and after a week of rest in Pokhara, the Annapurna Base Camp . For both treks I used the company Nepal Trekking Experts, which showed to be a smart choice from my side. Through Rajesh, the company manager who was always available both by Whatsup and also in person in Kathmandu, I could organize my treks with full flexibility, adapting it to my preferences and skills, not only before leaving but also during the treks themselves, according to the weather, the circumstances and my state of energy. I was particularly lucky with my guide Resham, who, in comparison with other guides I met during the treks, did a 24 hours job, was extremely resourceful and went always the extra mile in order to improve the trip experience. Thanks to him I discovered places that were not in the guidebook, I slept in homestays of Gurkha people, sharing their food, and taking me to villages where I could appreciate the life of the Nepali people. Furthermore, while hiking the standard trek, he proposed and anticipated often my preferences on the basis of his knowledge of the region and his observation, after a few days, of my strong and weak points. For example, in the Manaslu trek, after a few days he realized that i was faster than average going up, but that going down I was slower due to my knees, and he adapted the trek so that we would reach the Larkya Pass one day before what was initially calculated, so that I would have an extra day going down. All in all I was very satisfied with Resham and with Nepal Trekking Experts, and I hope to be back next year in Nepal with them.Written July 13, 2024

Beautiful hike in Kathmandu!
Feb 2021 • Couples
We loved our trekking experience with Rajesh! The hike was incredible, through peaceful forests and on top of beautiful hills. The hike was challenging but the views of the hills and the valley made it worth it. We enjoyed seeing the temples and learning about the culture of Nepal. We celebrated reaching the top of the third hill with lunch and a cable car ride back down to the bottom. The driver was good also and we would definitely recommend the whole experience!
