Nepal tour 2004

In September 2004 we had a great trip to Nepal. Before leaving Denmark we did a lot of research and planning. Normally we do everything by ourselves concerning hotel bookings, transportation etc – but this time did we choose a local tour operator to set up our trip. Among the many tour operators we choose Adventure Treks Nepal (P). Ltd. - as it made a good impression on their web-site and had quick responses on our questions (e-mails).

We just provided our wishes on what to see and where and when to go – then it was all planned by the owner of Adventure Treks Nepal (P). Ltd., Mr. Gyan karki. The planning fase went very smoothly and that made our expectations to the trip itself even higher.

And let me be clear about this; our expectations were met fully by Mr. Gyan karki – as he and his employees during our one month visit took very good care of us !

Our itenerary included 4 days of sightseeing in Kathmandu, 3 days sightseeing in Pokhara, 3 days safari in Chitwan Natl. Park, 20 days trekking around Mt. Everest and finally a couple of days relaxing in a good hotel in Kathmandu.

All hotels, transports, trekking including flights, porter, guide, accomodation etc was arranged by Adventure Treks Nepal (P). Ltd. and as stated above it went very smooth – also did we benefit from some of the good deals Mr. Karki has with the different hotels etc making it difficult to do it cheaper on our own.

Our start was in Kathmandu were we experienced all the normal tourist attractions (temples etc) and the busy town life of the capitol of Nepal. We stayed in the tourist area of Thamel in Hotel Vaishali, conviently located for going out in the cozy area around for dinner or a beer at a bar.

Pokhara (Hotel Barahi) – introduced us to the first views of the snowcapped himalayas. The beautiful lakeside town had a very cozy feeling and there was a great atmosphere in the tourist area at the lake. We enjoyed some mountain biking which gave a good impression of the countryside.

Then we had 3 exciting days in Chitwan Natl. Park (Chitwen Jungle Lodge) spending most of our time on the back of an elephant – we saw rhinos, a lot of different deers, wild boar, etc - sorry no Tiger but footprints from some. Tiger is seen very seldom. We were also introduced to a small local village nearby. – Great experience !

After the safari we were picked up by Mr. Karki himself and a driver then went back by the bumping roads to Kathmandu and further on to our trek around the area of Mt. Everest.

Our trek started with the flight to the mountain town of Lukla – impressive landing on a mountainside !! During our trek we visited the lakes of Gokyo, Gokyo ridge, passing over the Chola pass visiting Kala Pattar and enjoying beautiful vistas of Mt. Everest and all the other beautiful mountains. We enjoyed the trip a lot and stayed at nice lodges – with exception of the accomodation at the Chola pass which is very basic (but there are no other options).

Back in Kathmandu we ended our trip by relaxing in the luxurious Hotel (Hyatt Regency) - we also experienced a local dance show where we were introduced to the family of Mr. Karki - very friendly family !.

All in all a trip of a lifetime perfectly organized by Mr. Karki – and making us think about planning another trip – maybe next time to the mountains around Pokhara.

We were not affected on our trip by the political situation in Nepal – but we hope the peace will settle in Nepal as this beautiful country has so much to offer.

Thanks to staff of Adventure Treks Nepal (P). Ltd. , Mr. Gyan karki and his family.
Best regards from Dorthe and Henrik Jensen, Denmark

Sono oramai due anni che trascorriamo le nostre vacanze effettuando trekking in Nepal; abbiamo usufruito dei servizi dell’agenzia Adventure Treks Nepal (P). Ltd. con piena soddisfazione di tutti i partecipanti; non solo gli itinerari, i lodges, i portatori, sono stati di alto livello, ma soprattutto fra la nostra guida, Bhuwan (che tra l’altro sta continuando a studiare italiano e può essere quindi molto utile a chi non padroneggia la lingua inglese) e l’organizzatore Gyan Karki, si è instaurato un rapporto direi di amicizia.

L’attenzione alle necessità di ogni singolo partecipante (il primo anno ha partecipato con il nostro piccolo gruppo un amico di 72 anni!!) è sempre stata ammirevole; l’organizzazione, dall’arrivo in aeroporto alla partenza, comprese le visite alla splendida vallata di Kathmandu, perfetta.

Il Nepal, per chi come noi ama le montagne, è un Paese meraviglioso e merita ben più di un viaggio; la Adventure Treks Nepal (P). Ltd.. ci fa desiderare ogni volta di ritornare a scoprire altri itinerari. E infatti nell’ottobre del 2005 abbiamo già organizzato quello che è forse uno dei più bei trek del Nepal, il grande circuito dell’Annapurna.

Siamo certi che anche questa volta sarà tutto organizzato alla perfezione. Lavoro da tanti anni nel settore turistico e assicuro che raramente un corrispondente non si presta a critiche: ma in questo caso non posso che ringraziare tutti i componenti dell’Adventure Treks Nepal per la loro professionalità, che si trasforma nella completa soddisfazione dei partecipanti.

E’ con molto piacere quindi che mando questa lettera e resto a disposizione di chiunque mi voglia contattare per condividere questa meravigliosa esperienza nepalese.

Grazie ancora a tutti e arrivederci al prossimo anno!

Prior to my arrival to Nepal, I had been in contact with several tour agencies trying to figure out which one would best suit my needs. I was first introduced to Gyan karki and Adventure Treks Nepal (P). Ltd. by my travel companion who mentioned to me, "This guide sounds helpful and reliable, and the trek sounds great!"

My trip to Nepal turned out to be one of the most memorable experiences I have ever had, and I couldn't have done it without Gyan and his team. Trekking through the Himalayas felt like going through a "Fairy Tale Kingdom" and Gyan and His Company gave the full royal treatment.

His expertise of the hills and his knowledge of every corner of those mountains made me feel safe and secure during the entire trek. Since then, I have recommended Adventure Treks Nepal (P). Ltd. to anyone I meet who has an interest in visiting the area.

I definitely plan a return trip to this "Fairy Tale Kingdom" and Gyan will be my first point of contact to arrange the excursion. I am guaranteed that my travel plans will be handled by a true expert and professional. Gyan is not only a "Travel, Trekking guide" along your travels through Nepal, but he is also a "friend" you can trust.

Sincerely,
