We took this trip in the month of Oct 2019 and I still feel appreciative and obliged to the courteous behavior of Hari and Bijay. As we planned for the Trip we wished that Bijay can accompany us due to the amazing reviews and his name in every review never the less Hari was our actual guide and we were never left alone or felt stranded they were available for every sensible requests, these people mean business with human touch. I wouldn't just recommend but request everyone out there to give these people a chance. Thank You: Bijay, Hari and Kishore. Bijay: the sendoff party was a moment that I would remember for a long time.

Massif Holidays, what can I say,how long have you got? For many years I have read about Nepal and wanted to go and at last a dream became a reality when six of us booked with Massif Holidays,I am pleased to say they were fantastic in every way, from the moment Rimal met us at the airport to the time they returned us back they looked after us as if we were royalty.
He arranged visits trip to local sights,places to stay, some great places to eat,(always with a beautiful view) how does he do that. No trip to Katmandu is complete without a flight over Everest wow breathtaking.
Trip in a minibus sightseeing? No probs, our driver,we called him Dave, brilliant, their knowledge of the area fantastic so saw all the sights of Kat.
Next stop Beautiful Chitwan National Park,great hotel,washing elephants,canoe ride up the river,jungle trek, we didn't want to leave this place,then on to Pokara, again wonderful four days exploring,shop,bars,markets,and of course the beautiful lake.
I could easily go on and write for another hour about this trip I've missed out so much.
But to sum up, you are thousands of miles from home the last thing you want is problems that can ruin your trip so we chose Massif and everything went like clockwork brilliant there knowledge and expertise is outstanding. Thanks Rimal for being there with us every step of the way a great guide

We were a group of 10 people, using the services of Massif Holidays this September and we are very satisfied. The staff were very knowledgeable, flexible about the arrangements we made and useful, especially in all the unforeseen circumstances that appeared during our time in Nepal.
Definitely recommended!

I did the Kathmandu day tour with Bijay in 2014. He has wonderful knowledge of all the sites, as well as Nepal in general. I was travelling on my own but we had a great time as he made the tour as interesting as possible. He also prepared me mentally for the hike, which was very useful. Wish I could come back again soon!

The trek we chose with Massif was trekking from Lukla up to Everest Base Camp and then through Cho La Pass to Gokyo Ri.
We had problems with the weather getting into Lukla airport but the guides at Massif arranged at a small additional cost helicopters so we could maintain our schedule. The trekking in the Everest region at altitude is not easy but the Massif guides and porters always kept a great momentum and sense of humour as we navigated the different routes and pointed out all of the different mountains on route.
The knowledge of the team through ought the trip was excellent in terms of the geography, lodges, with many contacts in the Himalayas region.
Would strongly recommend Massif if you are choosing a Nepalese adventure!!

We booked our tour with Massif Holidays for the month of July. Bijay is very responsive to all our queries. We decided to book a trip of Kathmandu and the Himalayas. Bijay took us around Kathmandu and we had wonderful tour with lots of information of history, culture and religion. We also did trek to Upper Mustang with Dambar organized by Massif Holidays. He took care of our every need and make us feel like at home. We highly recommend Massif Holidays to be your host if you are planning a trip to Nepal. We will definitely see you again Dambar and Bijay. Thanks a lot for your hospitality and professional services.

I traveled to Nepal with a big group last September. We had an amazing time and I strongly recommend Massif Holidays services and especially Bijay and Dambar.
We started planning our trip to Nepal in February. We emailed a couple of tourist agencies in the country and the best response I received was from Massif Holidays.
They were very flexible and gave our group a lot of options from witch to choose as well as recommendations for the best places in Nepal. Bijay provided us with a very good group price as well.
Bijay and Dambar were waiting for us when we arrived at Kathmandu International airport and welcomed us very kindly.
We had a great tour in the city where Bijay was our guide and showed us the best places one should see.
Afterwards we drove to Pokhara, went trekking in the Annapurna region and had a few days in Chitwan National park. Everything was amazing and Bijay and Dambar (who was trekking with us) were the perfect hosts.
During our stay in Nepal the country suffered a fuel crisis, but even when most of the cars were out of gas we had no problems with our transportation and managed to see all the places as planned.
I strongly recommend using the services of Massif Holidays, I'm sure that if going to Nepal this is the best option.

My two-week trip to Nepal: An unforgettable experience, loads of fun, adventure, magnificence and beauty! I can sincerely say: A Must DO! And one of the most responsible parties for this: Massif Holidays!
I visited Nepal end of September (2015), as part of a larger group of friends. We were 10 people in total, 3 of which were able to postpone our flight back and stayed a couple of days longer. We planned our trip with the help of Massif Holidays, as we contacted one of the co-founders of the Travel agency (Bijay) a few months prior to our flight. We had already booked our plane tickets and planned to visit the country independently (no guides, bookings, etc.), but we did want to get some local advice and maybe book some private transportation for our all-round trip. Bijay was truly helpful and was able to provide exactly what we wanted. In the process of negotiation, we decided to have things a bit more organized (i.e. book some hotels for the cities, have our trek permits issued by the agency, get a trek guide, reserve some river rafting and also a jungle safari). We did this in order to save time, since two weeks is not enough to get a full grasp of Nepal. Bijay and his partner (Dambar) were flexible enough to fulfill all our demands and as a result we managed to get exactly what we were looking for. Our trip included some sightseeing in Kathmandu, river rafting; the 4-day Ghorepni Poon Hill Trek, sightseeing and a free day in Pokhara; a visit to the Chitwan National Park (including great fun activities in the park), and a free day back in Kathmandu. The Massif Holiday team guided us personally around the cities (Bijay) and during the Trek (Dambar) and fulfilled any requests we had along the way. At the same time they gave us enough personal space so that we never really felt as part of those “organized tourist group”. With their excellent knowledge of their country, very-good prices, almost fluent English and wonderful attitude towards us, I can recommend the team’s services without doubt, instantly, to any friend. What’s more, these guys actually became friends of mine along the way.

We visited Nepal in late September and had contacted Massif Holidays a few months back, while organising our trip. A group of 10 people, we wanted to make sure that we have arranged transport, guides, porters and accommodation prior to arriving, in order to spare ourselves the time and efforts to arrange everything on site. We chose Massif Holidays for their good reviews, quick responses to emails/chats and the great price they offered for our trip. All arrangements went very well and we quickly settled on an itinerary that suited our stay and budget. Happy to say they delivered everything as promised and our trip was very well planned!
We stayed in Nepal for 10 days (9 nights), four of which in Kathmandu, four in the mountains, doing the Poon Hill Trek, and two in Pokhara. We were welcomed by Bijay and Dambar, the two owners of the agency and they had really taken care of everything relevant to the trip - booked hotels, arranged very good private transport for our group throughout the whole trip, porters, etc.
In Kathmandu and Pokhara, they showed us around the main heritage sites, giving good cultural background, for us to understand the places. One of them was with us at all times, so we could always ask to go somewhere, or do something that was not planned as well and they would always see to our requests.
The best part of the trip was the 4-day Poon Hill trek, where Dambar was our guide - and an excellent one. He knew loads about the places we visited, told us many details and interesting stories about Nepal and the mountains in general.
The pinnacle of our trip was the vies from Poon Hill - watching the sun rise behind some of the highest mountains in the world - real breathtaking experience.
I'd really recommend Massif Holidays to anyone wishing to visit Nepal for cultural and/or trekking purposes. The guides are well experienced, easy to communicate with, friendly and ready to help with anything before and during the trip. Overall - a great visit and when I go back to do a base camp trip in Nepal, without a doubt, I'd be using their service! :)
