For the third time, let Backpacker Treks and Expedition help with planning the trip, and also ask Resham to arrange the trip with Bhutan, saving a lot of homework time, really great! Langtang is a good weather all the way, not encountering too many walking tourists, the low season is the benefit of this ~ Master Guide Resham as always steadily pressed behind the team, Deputy Guide Bhuwan in front of us 6 people ahead, hearing the ringing of the squad from a distance, will find a safe place to stop us immediately, to ensure that the squad does not get hit. The snowfall on the snow mountain in the distance they can also hear clearly, so that we can stay outlooking these natural landscapes, on the way to laugh, laugh like friends, but without losing professional care, actively inquire about our situation, let them lead us on the road, really calm and happy.

I have had a wonderful 10 days trekking to Poonhill-ABC in late Nov 2024. I believe without the support from this professional trekking company, I cannot complete the journey!

The company has been providing excellent services right from trip preparation throughout the journey. They answered my questions and concerns, tailor-making the itinerary as my requests, and provided essential trekking equipments.

My guide, Ram, has been very attentive and caring. He is a gentle and calm man with little words, but we did have pleasant conversations throughout the trip. He is also a trusted man and I relied on his judgements and guidance with my full confidence, leaving me a care-free journey. This is especially helpful concerning the possibly rapid-changing weather up in the mountains, and my worry of any physical ailments/altitude sickness. He even prepared me a fruit plate almost on every lunch and dinner, and being a cameraman helping me to take some pretty pictures! Thank you so much, Ram!

I strongly recommend joining the tours from this company. And if I am to trek in Nepal again, which is very likely, I would love to have them again!

In fact, this hiking trip to Nepal was a temporary decision. A day or two before I flew to Kathmandu from Thailand, I searched for some information about hiking in Nepal online. I found that many Taiwanese people recommended Backpacker Treks and Expeditions on backpacker inns, so I I contacted the boss Ganesh and hoped to discuss my itinerary with him face to face. My accommodation in Kathmandu was not far from his office. He even came to my hotel in person to discuss the itinerary with me. My request was that the days should not be too long. I didn’t buy mountaineering insurance (because I was abroad, domestic insurance companies couldn’t cover it, and international insurance was too expensive). Since I had little mountaineering experience and I was afraid of altitude sickness, I asked Ganesh to recommend me a simpler route. So after much discussion, He suggested that I take the 5-day Mardi Himal route. He promised that the scenery was also very beautiful and that 99.9% of me would be fine (altitude sickness). Since I didn’t bring all the mountain climbing supplies, he also lent me trekking poles and ice for free. claws and down sleeping bag, I only need to buy gloves and rain pants by myself, which saves me a lot of money. Ganesh was very kind and hospitable, and he even treated me to a traditional Nepalese breakfast when I went to his office the next day to discuss the details with him:)

My guide this time is Amit, and my collaborator is Ram dai. As a guide, Amit is very familiar with climbing routes and precautions on the mountains. During these five days, the two of them did their best to meet our needs, coordinate with our climbing rhythm, and They took good care of us. I also learned the skill of eating with my hands from Amit and Ram dai. I have a small suggestion. Maybe not every customer needs it, but if the guides can improve their photography skills and help customers take more video records along the way, customers will have a better experience (I met a certain company on the mountain) guides, the company regularly helps them with various professional trainings every year, including photography, first aid, etc.), but the faults cannot be concealed. This is still a great experience. On the fourth day, we climbed to the highest point of the journey, Mardi himal base camp. , after several days of clouds and light rain, we were very lucky to see the Mardi Himal and Annapurna. The scenery was as magnificent as a fairyland, making people forget to leave.

I am very glad that I made the decision to hike in Nepal this time and chose Ganesh and his partners. This experience convinced me that I will return to Nepal again to be better prepared and challenge other routes.

For data collection before planning a trip to Nepal, I found a reputable Nepalese mountaineering company on the Internet – ‘Backpackers Treks and Expedition’.
If so, I contacted Rajesh, the head of the company, and asked him to arrange for me and another friend a tour of ‘PoonHill and Annapurna Base Camp’. Rajesh has been in close contact with me throughout the program and keeps me updated about the weather in Nepal and the equipment needed. And Rajesh and his company finally arranged for me an 8-day climbing plan. In addition, I asked Rajesh about the conversion of the Nepalese Rupee and the local phone card, Rajesh actively suggested to me that he can exchange the currency and the phone card.
On the evening of December 20, 2024, when I arrived in Kathmandu, Nepal, Rajesh had brought two beautiful flower circles to greet us outside the airport, which made me feel the enthusiasm of the locals when I first visited Nepal. After a night's break, Rajesh arranged for his team to take us to the airport on an inland flight to Pokhara, more carefully arranging our favorable position on the passenger plane so that we could enjoy mountain views on the plane.
Arriving at Pocara, the leader of this journey, Banja and backpacker Binod, waited for us early at the airport. Among them, Banja’s fluent English and foreign languages impressed me most, making our communication unhindered.
From 21 December 2024 to 28 December 2024, Mr. Banja led the eight-day excursion, introducing us to Nepal’s culture and landscapes with his expertise and sharing his personal interests from time to time. In addition, Banja arranged accommodation and meals carefully for us, so we were completely safe and enjoy the pleasure of climbing. As for the backbone Binod is also commendable. Even I myself feel that my backpack is big and heavy, Binod alone, with my friends and his own backpack, and able to keep up with us, with Bhanja always escorting and leading us throughout the journey, and from time to time guiding us in favorable positions and angles of shooting, so that we can shoot more beauties.
Overall, I am very pleased with the transportation and accommodation arrangements of the ‘Backpackers Treks and Expedition’, and also thank the leader Banja and backpack Binod for the careful care during the climbing process, leaving me a good memory of Nepal as the second climbing expedition.

這次的ABC健行是一段非常值得的旅程,感謝我的嚮導 Ratan,他的貼心與細心讓整趟旅程更加美好。

在下山的途中,我們發起了「一人一公斤淨山行動」,希望每位旅人都能帶走一點垃圾,讓這片壯麗的山林保持乾淨、美麗。

選擇在2月份來這裡,體驗到春、夏、秋、冬交替的奇妙景象。淡季的山徑人潮較少,讓整個步行過程更加寧靜與舒適。推薦有時間的朋友可以從 Ulleri(1960M) 開始,慢慢欣賞沿途的壯麗風景。

我們不僅在享受大自然,也希望能將循環經濟與環境教育的理念帶入這片土地,讓更多人了解如何透過小小的行動,為環境帶來正向改變。感謝 Backpacker Treks & Expedition Pvt. Ltd. 一起參與這場推動環境永續的行動!

The ABC trek was an incredibly rewarding journey. A huge thank you to my guide, Ratan, whose thoughtfulness and attentiveness made the entire experience even more special.

On our way down, we initiated the "One Kilogram Mountain Cleanup Action", encouraging every traveler to carry out at least one kilogram of trash to help preserve the beauty of this magnificent landscape.

Visiting in February allowed me to witness the transition of all four seasons—spring, summer, autumn, and winter—within a single trip. The off-season meant fewer crowds, making the trek more peaceful and enjoyable. I highly recommend starting from Ulleri(1960M) to fully appreciate the breathtaking scenery along the way.

Beyond enjoying nature, we also hope to bring awareness to circular economy and environmental education, encouraging more people to take small actions that lead to positive change. A big thank you to Backpacker Treks & Expedition Pvt. Ltd. for joining us in this effort to promote sustainability!

Because the whole trip is planned by fellow travellers, for the whole trip is almost zero concept, but from the first day of contact with our guide and backwork began to feel satisfied with peace of mind and kindness, and the original arranged guide temporarily can not come, the owner himself temporarily come in person as our guide, random response ability is excellent, not let our journey to delay.
Four days and three nights of poonhill, all on the mountain to eat, drink, Internet use, hot baths are all included in the cost, three meals are all eaten saturated, dinner and fruit, there is a time will also take us to explore the lives of local people, basically no need to use extra money
The accommodation is also very clean and comfortable, we will take care of our body and sleep every day, and I remember that one morning I said last night I would sleep cold, and that night I immediately gave me a cotton baton.
Extremely recommend this team, the help and care provided on the way let us without experience experience the first night climbing, also completed the dream of mountain climbing in Nepal, I thought it would be very difficult to take a daily bath without hot water washing the head or the mountain something bad to eat, but in fact the whole trip only need to follow backpacker's team do not worry, whether it is allocated a daily exercise time or three meals, all arranged properly, the result is completely out of our expectations perfect and smooth!!
Very recommended and thank you very much for chatting like a friend's boss and guide Rajesh and the unbeatable warm backup Ram, very happy to meet them and have this wonderful memory:)
Finally back to the plain we also celebrate and enjoy dinner together
We really enjoy and miss the days in Nepal, especially people in the area really make people feel very happy

The purpose of the journey is not to reach the end,
Instead of experiencing the wonderful ones in the process.

Planned a 4-year EBC tour, we were fortunate to open a pilgrimage route to Nepal under Mr. Li, a Taiwanese mountain climbing company.

When we arrived at Kathmandu International Airport, we were picked up by the company owner of Backpacker Treks and his team, and took us to the city hostel in a bus and arranged our stay, told us the evening and detailed traffic conditions and reminded us to rest well.

This trip, although due to the uncertainty of the weather, led to a shift in the mode of transportation, the company continued to work hard to solve the problems of transportation and let us reach Rukala on the EBC wh route smoothly.

During the journey, when our crew members have physical discomfort or difficulty walking, the guide board and the assistance team will first discover and help us.

They always prioritize putting us first every time we arrive at Guest House They always prioritize helping us arrange a meal, only after an unintentional chat they always wait for us to eat with dinner staff.

Professional guides on the trip will also share culture on time and tell us the stories of the mountains. Another owner who helps communicate remotely has also been in contact with the accommodation and the traffic, providing remote assistance.

Glad to be able to meet professional in such walking and adventure activities
The team to help us complete and at the end of the evening we left had the opportunity to have dinner with everyone and share the joy on the way.

The representative of Nanjing Nanking Mountain expressed his faithful thanks.
Thank you Taiwan - Mountains Climbing Activities Company - Ryan
Thank you Nepal-backpacker treks - team and Resham&Rajesh.

With the assistance and encouragement of our experienced and resourceful tour guide, Resham, we made it to Appapurna Base Camp, a strenuous yet challenging trail that drained us all completely.

But for the best arrangements of Resham, we would not have ascended daily so smoothly and courageously. His keeping an eye on our own pace based on our physical abilities in a professional manner did make us rest assured even having many uncertainties ahead of us.

Besides altitudes, practical and timely pieces of advice and help provided by our guide, Resham, as to how we conquered the severe coldness all the way through the trekking trail before and during the climb were incredibly useful.

What impressed us also are his being knowledgeable about introducing the landscape and scenery surrounding us together with replying to our endless enquiries.

Special thanks to Bhuwan, Rabin and Sudan, our porters, who not only relieved burdens on our shoulders, but also started every single day with cheerfulness, warmth and supportive words! We will never forget the dances and jokes that cracked us up.

Their caring accompanying made the trip wonderfully memorable and we were lucky to have conquered the trek with them! Upon arrival, we have decided to accomplish more with them.

The company is definitely an option not to be missed.

We surely will recommend this wonderful company to whoever interested in Nepal exploration.

Namasta!!!!
Since having the heart of wanting to go to Nepal again, I have been reading articles in Nepal, English is very bad for me,
Always looking for a Chinese Guide, then by the way looking for a companion, after all, one person (I think it would be a very hard journey, finally saw the article of a52337, also asked a bunch of questions, after turning the peak, the last companion is also a friend who has asked the trip before?!

The reason is so amazing, we finally decided to attend a52337 Recommendation backpacker treks&expedition
In fact, there is not a lot of training time before going, and the accident will happen when you are not ready,
I wanted to say that you can enjoy the atmosphere of climbing well the previous few days, I didn't think of the next day of departure,
Just happened the same situation as Lake Carmine, this time is the thigh pull, I don't like to use the climbing stick,
At the beginning of the third day, the whole course of using the climbing stick, and this time can effectively control the thigh muscle, really want to thank Guide Tej, because he has an acidic pain reliever, which is applied to the pain almost reduced a lot,
(So everyone who is easy to squeeze, remember to take acid painkillers before departure..^.^..)
In addition to pumping muscles, it was also sucked by waterpipe (again unlocking new achievements), sliding was also a regular meal (well the mountain stick saved me again!!), all these conditions were solved one by one by the Guide, so thanks again to the professional Guide Tej.

This Trips in addition to thanks to the professional team of backpacker treks&expedition (Guides and sailors), of course also Recommendation to participate in backpacker treks&expedition a52337, and last and most importantly my companion Pzora, helped me translate in English, so I can understand any situation, really thank you!!!^.^..
Everyone can check out their Recommendation articles!!

Last but not least, thank you for the weather in Nepal, the mountain is almost a good weather, even if it is raining, it is quick to get to the mountains to escape the rain, so this Trips is all beautiful!!..^.^..

I took advantage of the October holiday to trek to ABC and had an incredible experience, thanks to Rajesh and my guide, Ram, from "Backpacker Treks & Expedition". After comparing agents online, I chose this agency due to their excellent reputation, and it turned out to be the best decision. The service was reliable, and I felt very comfortable throughout.

Rajesh was always responsive, patiently answering my questions via WhatsApp. When I arrived in Kathmandu, he personally picked me up, even though my flight was delayed. He also helped me get last-minute gear at local shops at good prices.

Ram, my guide, was experienced, reliable, and familiar with Taiwanese travelers. He not only guided me well but also brought fruit up the mountain, which amazed and jealous other trekkers! He was attentive to my pace, made sure I was comfortable, and even helped ease my mild altitude sickness with a garlic soup at the base camp. Ram became more than just a guide—he felt like family by the end of the trek.

With *Backpacker Treks & Expedition*, everything from meals to accommodation was arranged, leaving me worry-free on the mountain. I highly recommend this agency for anyone planning an ABC, EBC, or other treks in Nepal. It was an unforgettable experience!

—————————————————————-

趁著 10 月份長假決定前往 ABC,實在是透過 Rajesh 跟嚮導 Ram 獲得很多滿滿的回憶、關心與愛,所以想著無論如何也要好好寫一篇 review,回饋給也想要來 ABC trekking 的大家!🥺

網上貨比三家了不同家 agent,其實行程&包含的項目等等都是大同小異。不過 "backpacker treks&expedition" 這家 agent 在論壇 "背包客棧" 幾乎是人人好評,加上這次是我單獨一個女生前往,想想還是覺得那就跟風大家!事後證明,絕對是最正確的選擇,令人安心、整體體驗也超級自在!

雖然一直很想到尼泊爾走 ABC 或 EBC,但我實際訂下行程卻是出發前一個月的事😂當時透過 What's App 來回諮詢了 agent 的老闆 Rajesh,他也一直不厭其煩的解答我各式各樣瑣碎的問題,在抵達加德滿都時甚至是親自接送,就算我的飛機因天氣延誤了超過兩小時,Rajesh 也沒有任何不耐,還給了我一個歡迎花圈🌼抵達酒店後我發現我還有一些東西沒準備好,跟 Rajesh 說了之後他立刻熟門熟路帶我去補裝備,還帶我去很神秘的攤販,說價格比較便宜😆

而我的嚮導兼背夫 Ram,更是我大力推薦這家 agent 的理由。Ram 是個話不多但非常實在又可靠的嚮導,當嚮導已經五年時間了,本身是三個孩子的爸。英文非常好完全沒有口音溝通無障礙,帶過的客人有8成都是台灣人,可謂說是非常了解台灣人的習慣😂原本我怕體力不夠想特別請一個背夫幫忙背我其中一個大包,但 Rajesh 跟 Ram 看我的包應該沒超過 12 kg,於是就說可以一起就好了🥺沿路上 Ram 一直默默跟在我身後,隨著我的步伐前行 ; 一路上會告訴我遠方是什麼山、海拔多少、我們到下一個目的地大概還需要多久的時間或距離,都十分確切的告訴

會特別說是因為我在沿路上見到很多其他的嚮導,也跟其他登山客互相聊大家的 guide,有的嚮導只顧跟其他山友聊天不理會自己的顧客、有的嚮導性格比較愛開玩笑,常常指鹿為馬或大而化之、網路上也有很多丟包自己顧客的案例存在。全部對比起來 Ram 真的是我們那陣子上山的人大家票選第一名的嚮導😂喔而且 Ram 在山下還自己買了水果上山,每晚或午餐都切給我吃🥺越往高山我的水果詢問率就越高,一堆山友一直問「為什麼你有水果可以吃?」我都既不好意思又驕傲的說:「Ram 背上山的!」

在大本營時,我說我的手腳有一點點麻麻的,Ram 怕我高反立刻幫我點了山屋裡的大蒜湯說能緩解。在 trekking 後半途跟 Ram 也漸漸熟識起來,他也會主動聊一些有趣的話題☺️整個 trekking 途中也不厭其煩的幫我拍了很多照片影片~最後要分別時竟然感到一絲的難過,感覺就像在山裡的家人一樣了!

上ABC有很多不同的方式,有些人不請嚮導自己上山、有些人只請了嚮導上山後的住宿和三餐要自己付費或預訂。而我透過 "backpacker treks&expedition" 這家 agent 完全是免去你上山之後的一切煩惱。從每天的三餐我直接隨便亂點都不用再額外收費 (對比很多人在山上是掐著錢包在吃東西的,因為山上物價越高越貴)、山屋也完全不用擔心,甚至能幫忙安排單人間就幫忙安排,一切非常令人安心!大推薦給所有想來 ABC 或 EBC 甚至其他尼泊爾線路的大家,希望大家也能和我一樣擁有一趟震撼心靈又豐富多采的尼泊爾 trekking!
