Summary:
My friends and I joined a 5 day Mardi Himal trek with this company, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. Our tour guide, Bhim, and porter, Yohana were both incredibly accountable, friendly, and helpful throughout the journey. They made sure we were safe, comfortable, and well taken care of every step of the way. The guide was knowledgeable about the route and local culture, and the porter worked tirelessly with a smile. On the day 4, we were feeling quite tired and started wondering if we should shorten the trek and return to Pokhara earlier. Our guide listened carefully, gave us thoughtful advice, and helped us make the right decision to end the trek a day earlier. Thanks to his flexibility and understanding, we got to enjoy an extra day relaxing in Pokhara before heading to our next destination. Highly recommended for anyone planning a trek, you’ll be in great hands!
