Basanta travel organized a trip for a group of 20 people (adults & kids) to go to Bandipur and Pokhara. Every detail was covered. Siddik was my main contact person and we was super patient with the various requests from the group. Drivers were very good and safe. Accommodation in Bandipur (Old Inn) and Pokhara (fishtail lodge) were great and the kids loved it too. Hikes were organized that accommodated the various skills level of the group. On the last day our flight was delayed from Pokhara back to Kathmandu and Siddik was peronally following up and giving me updates. i can highly recommend Basanta Adventure as they also focus on eco tourism. My wife had her birhday in Kathmandu and she collected funds from people for a charity in Nepal. Basanta gave us a good contact to donate the money to. This company edcuates children in the schools to keep Nepal clean and they clean up trecks to make them rubbish free.

We couldn’t speak more highly of Basanta Adventures - they (and Siddik in particular) arranged the perfect 2 week honeymoon to Nepal for us, with a mixture of culture, trekking, safari and wonderful relaxation. Planning the trip over emails and WhatsApp with Siddik was easy and fun, and he gave us really helpful advice on planning an itinerary that both covered everything we wanted it to, without feeling like we were rushing around. The rooms booked for us in all our accommodation (KGH, Old Inn Bandipur, Pavilions, Tiger Tops Karnali and Dwarika’s Dhulikhel) were all enormous and beautiful. Siddik was always checking in with us throughout the trip, and seemed to personally care that we had a good time. We saw him lots of times throughout our trip as he met us off our connecting flights, which was so kind and a really lovely touch. The Mardi Himal trek that Siddik arranged for us, with fantastic guide Netra and unstoppable porter Bouda was one of the best things we’ve ever done. All in all, a 5 star experience!! Thank you Basanta, we hope so much to be back one day!

I had a fantastic holiday. Basanta Adventure Treks & Expeditions gave first class personal service from the initial enquiry, developing an itinerary to meet what I wanted and at each step ensuring the trip was going well. Their guides and drivers were professional with a wealth of information whilst being fun to be with. The cultural tour of Kathmandu, Nano Buddha and Bandupur were fascinating and the accommodations excellent. Chitwan is a very scenic area as well as the wildlife attractions. My highlight was a short taster trek in the Annapurna area covering the first stages of the ABC trek. The trek was wonderful with breathtaking scenery of some of the 8000m mountains, comfy tea houses with good facilities and food. Ratna was an experienced guide very familiar with the route who ensured everything was taken care of.
At each stage I knew that Basanta Adventure Treks & Expeditions were checking in to ensure all was well and that I was enjoying myself. I had total confidence that they would be available if I had any worries. Their experience and first hand knowledge of the area, accommodation tours and treks was evident. Primarily dealing with a family business based in Nepal translates into a quality experience. I will defiantly do a longer trek with Basanta again - hopefully in 2024.

A good friend recommended Basant to help me plan a trek of the Three Passes and to climb Island Peak in Feb / March 2023. Everything was planned and executed to the last detail and I couldn't have asked for a better guide and porter team. My guide, Dafuri sherpa, took EXCELLENT care of me and was so knowledgeable and experienced in the mountains. I always felt safe and well taken care of as we climbed the three high passes, crossed glaciers, jumped over (sometimes large) crevices in the ice, and climbed Island Peak. Acclimatization was no problem because extra days and small acclimatization hikes were all planned into the itinerary. I really couldn't have asked for a better guide than Dafuri so when you let Basant and Siddik help you plan your trek, ask for Dafuri, you will be in such good hands!

This was my third trip organized by Basanta Adventures. Once again it was a bespoke trip. We had a week’s trekking from Lukla to Namche and then a week in Chitwan and Lumbini. Previously we trekked the Kharta Valley in Tibet and an Eastern Annapurna trek.
Siddik and Basant made sure that we were completely looked after through the planning process and every step of the way through our 2 weeks in Nepal.
The organization of the trip was fantastic, and they were there to attend to anything that might not go to plan like cancelled flights that needed rebooking for the next morning, the transfer back to the hotel, rebooking the hotel and transfers very early the next morning from a remote location. You know that they will always be there to assist you if you need it.
Our trekking guide, Thakur did an amazing job and went over and above what would have been expected of him to give my husband some assistance when he found some of the terrain a bit tough.
I look forward to travelling with Basanta Adventures again

We had the most incredible trip organised by Basanta Adventures. We were recommended to use them by a friend in the UK and they could not have planned a more wonderful trip. Siddik looked after us so well throughout our trip, checking in every now and again to make sure everything was running smoothly. We visited Nepal the last two weeks of September and were a little unlucky with the weather but that did not affect how much we loved every moment. We did the Mardi Himal Trek - a gateway Trek is how we described it - it is very manageable and the perfect length if you don't have too much time to play with. We met lovely people and cannot wait to return.

The organisation planned for us the tour in Kathmandu. But the director did also something very appreciated: he solved all problems of the group included accompaining and stay in hospital with me. Everything was well organised and he made efforts to arrange the different arrivals and departures of the member of our group.

A very experienced world-traveler friend had recommended Basant of Basanta Adventure Treks to us. We were not disappointed. While we did not have much time in Nepal, our experience in Kathmandu with this company was excellent. (Unfortunately, we can't say that about a different tour company we did use for our trek out of Pokhara). Our guide Mitra spoke good English, was very informed and informative. They were flexible and tailored to our schedule. While we very much enjoyed Bhaktapur and Boudhanath, Pashupatina was unexpectedly the most important and eye-opening part of the tour. Highly recommend using Basanta Adventure Treks for any part of a Nepal visit.

We recently did an EBC Trek with these guys as a group of 11 and it went exceptionally well.

The communication throughout was excellent right from the planning phases all the way to the end. The teams are very knowledgeable and well experienced, they made sure we were looked after, all day every day. Do what they recommend, follow their instructions and things will go smoothly. Loads of fun. Highly recommend.

We used Basanta adventures to plan our trip to kathmandu and Pokhara and they helped create an awesome and efficient experience for us. There were always very quick to reply to our questions and partnered us with a great guide for our trek to Poon Hill. There was nothing that we could complain about the itinerary that Basanta adventures organized for us. All the employees were very professional and friendly and the director and founder, Basant, personally met us and gave us a very reassuring run down of the plan for us. 5 star service and worth it for anyone looking to visit Nepal
