Challenging but amazing trek in Nepal - This was an amazing experience for me as a solo female traveller of a certain age (71). The tour was very well organized for me and the company did everything to make sure I was well taken care of. Day 1 of the hike was a lot more difficult than I expected and I so much appreciate the help of my guide Balu and the porter. I’m not sure I would have made it without Balu’s help and encouragement. Day 2 was longer but not as difficult as there was much less uphills and downhills. Nagarkot is especially beautiful and worth the visit. Highly recommend

A personalised heartwarming experience for a solo female traveler - The best thing about this trek was my guide Ganesh. I’m a 57 year old female travelling solo this time, my first visit to Nepal. Even though I’m pretty fit, I was a bit nervous about the trek but Ganesh encouraged me to take my time, look around. He was observant without being intrusive. We had great conversations about his life in a village, taking care of aged parents, Nepalese food and we also walked in comfortable silence. Everything went smoothly. It’s obvious that the company really cares about your experience. I highly recommend doing a trek with them, even an easy one like I did. I loved being in the country even though I only got to see the snow topped mountains from a distance.

A excellent company, with the highest standards - My favourite part of the experience was our time spent in Kathmandu. However, this was because I was only in Kathmandu as a travelling companion with my son. Trekking in Nepal had never been on my bucket list. However, the opportunity to visit an Asian city was great. The trekking was OK, and seeing the living conditions of the rural population was an eye opener. Perhaps the trekking would have been more satisfying if the weather conditions had allowed distant views, but this was not to be. Apparently, this has been the case all year, (2022), and is something which Himalayan Sanctuary can do nothing about. Don't go in June or July - monsoon season. Best time to go - early Spring, Autumn or - if you want to avoid warm weather - go in December or January., but then there is a risk of snow.

Touched once by scenic view and twice by excellent services. - Firstly, I want to say thank you to Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure company team members. They were accommodating, friendly and knows how to make customers to be touched. I highly recommend this tour and company to people who firstly visit to Nepal and do trekking. Because,They always be open and willing to interact with customers. Even though views are highly dependent to weather and seasons, trekking itself was informative and safe. It might seems to little bit pricier than other similar programs, but I believe service quality we got worth more than cost. I want to do my next trip with this company again when I come back to Nepal. If you want to know more details with this tour, ask them directly XD.

Everything is excellent! - I am so glad we booked our trip with this company, the service is amazing! From transportation, food to accommodation, everything is high quality and they even included an amazing hotel for us with great views. The guide and porters they provided is also highly experienced and really friendly, they were able to give us really detailed explanations to our questions on the culture, geography and history. The whole trekking we had a really nice conversation and it was like trekking with friends. The views on the trek was also breathtaking, we could see the Himalayas and the villages in the valley..It was just so beautiful. Also, I would like to note that Phem and Bishnu, the owners and tour organizer really go out of their way to make us feel welcomed: they took us out for dinner and tea, accompanied us to the airport, bought us to a great place for cashmere the last day before we leave Nepal.. this tour is so great and I had an unforgettable experience. Lastly, I was worried before taking this trekking tour because I dont have good stamina, but the guide was very patient and understanding to let me rest in between. I will definitely book my tour with this company the next time I visit Nepal!
