Caitlin W2026-02-26Great experience in Langtang with Sorbit and Ram Excellent experience on the Langtang Valley Trek guided Sorbit (Sofi) with Ram as our porter. Sorbit and Ram were very accommodating and made sure we had fun even on the days of the walk we found a bit more challenging. Sorbit had great energy, lots of funny stories and was really quick at spotting wildlife, so we got to see lots of monkeys and deer! Ram was such a legend for carrying our stuff, we could not have done this trek without their support. Langtang was a great mix of Forrest walking and mountain views, so would recommend for anyone looking for a week long trek.jordan h2026-02-11Poon hill trek 🫶 I had an amazing time during my four day poon hill trek and want to thank my amazing guide Anil for being there with me!! 🫂🙏 If you have thought about trekking in Nepal but feel overwhelmed by the idea of that, don’t fear!

We had really nice talks but he knew also when to give me the time alone that I was looking for during this trek. He was very supportive, helpful and flexible regarding my requests. In overall, it was a perfect experience ! 🙏🏻💜🏔️🇳🇵
