Client Reviews
Comments: Adventure Treks Nepal (Bhuwan Karki) organized a well rounded tour; with sightseein and Chitwan National Park. Everyone involved was friendly, helpful, fair and fun. Traveling with them is a great way to help the economy and keep these wonderful people employed. And it will be an amazing trip too!
Comments: We have used 8 different tour companies in many parts of the earth and I can honestly say adventure treks Nepal is number one in overall satisfaction. We have used them twice and the costumer service can't be beat. The price is also outstanding and they even gave us money back when we had to take the bus when flights were cancelled. They adapt the trips to whatever you want and have knowledgeable guides who treat you like gold (mr khim). If you go to Nepal, or even Tibet or India, you will Not find another company who compares.
Comments: Everyone at Adventure Treks Nepal was very helpful in putting together the trip and our guide was very accommodating. The entire trip was a refreshing break from the ordinary, in which it seemed anything shy of the weather could be fixed at the drop of the hat. The scenery was unlike anything we have ever seen and we look forward to our next trip in Nepal. Davide and Rita

Classic Annapurna Trekking, 04 Dec 2013.
Comments: Here is my feedback of our tour with Adventure Treks Nepal on the Classic Annapurna Circuit Trekking guided tour.
We had a great time in Nepal! We enjoyed experiencing life in Nepal from the big cities like Kathmandu and Pokhara to the small remote villages in the Himalayas during the trek.
We were pleasantly surprised that we had a private tour. Lucky that no one else joined our group as it was the off-season. Shambhu and Budi are really nice people and very professional. Shambhu is very knowledgeable of the sites and mountains along the trek and of Nepal itself. He answered most of my questions quite easily. Also we felt like he really took care of us especially in the later part of the trek when we got headaches and when my knee started to hurt during the descent to Muktinath. He made sure we had enough to eat, stayed warm with extra blankets, and got plenty of rest. Budi is a workhorse. He never complained and didn't look like he was cold even at the top! Your driver, though we did not spend too much time with him, was professional and courteous.
The hiking itself wasn't that bad. It was the cold up high and the lack of oxygen that made it difficult in the latter stages. But it was not anything we didn't expect. We've experienced high altitude before (4600m) and our bodies dealt with it better this time.
The food during the trek ranged from OK to a few dishes/drinks that we really enjoyed such as Tibetan bread, masala tea, real mint tea, garlic soup, dal bhat (at lower altitudes because of the saag), and aloo parotha in Muktinath.
One of the highlights of the tour was the tour of Muktinath Temple. Shambhu walked us through the grounds explaining the significance of the temples, the number 108, the trees planted in memory of loved ones, and the roles of the monks and swamis. I could tell that this was a special place to him. It would not have been the same had we walked through on our own.
Some not-so-good feedback:
To be totally honest, the tour did not have the best of starts. The car ride from Kathmandu to Besi Sahar was quiet and a bit awkward. I expected the tour to start right away. If not in the car then in the hotel before the drive. I tried to engage Shambhu in conversation but it wasn't as much a conversation as it was a question-answer period. He and the driver talked to each other. I suspect that he is of the personality that takes a while to warm up to people. That is ok. I understand. We are all different. I am just telling you this as feedback. Of course you can tell him what I said but he should know I'm not mad. It is just my observations and how I felt at the time. As I said earlier, the guiding portion of the tour and the relationships improved. Other than that, everything was great and we had a memorable time in Nepal.
Oh, one more thing Gyan. I think you should start guiding again. I find you very funny, with a contagious laugh and easy to get along with.
Comments: Thank you so much for all the good attention and care of the agency in arranging the trip. The guide was so helpful and all the prompt response to our emails was most excellent. We had a wonderful time.
Sincerely Yours,
Adrian and Ellie

Annapurna Base Camp 2012 & Everest Base Camp 2013
In 2012, after much research we booked the Annapurna Base Camp trip with Gyan Karki of Adventure Treks Nepal.
Our Guide and Porter were professional, extremely dedicated and patient - with a constant focus on our experience. I can honestly say it was an unforgettable trip - amazing countryside, great people, amazing organic food and the ideal way to truly escape from it all. Our Guide and Porter ultimately made all this possible - and memories we will have for a lifetime.
As a testimony to this company, we included a return to Nepal in November 2013 (this time to Everest Base Camp) as part of our Honeymoon - and again we were not disappointed. Our guide this time, Mr Khim was truly excellent in his organisation and enthusiasm with a super sense of humour !!
With a day spare in Kathmandu at the end of our trip - Gyan also arranged a chauffer-driven day tour for my wife and I to finally see the best of the city.
We are hoping to get back to Nepal again, will definitely be choosing ATN and cannot recommend them enough.

Comments: Adventure Treks Nepal organized our Everest Base Camp Trek, They provided a much greater level of service. The client to sherpa ration was higher, the equipment top notch and the food better. We will trek again with him in the future and recommend him highly". Tracy

Testimonial Nepal
We found "Adventure Treks Nepal" in our Nepal guide and checked their offers in the internet. From the first moment they convinced us with their ability to customize trips for their customers.
We contacted Gyan and explained that we would like to receive a tailor-made offer for a stay in a nice hotel in Kathmandu, a 12-days-trek onto Gokyio Ri, and afterwards a visit of Chitwan-NP.
We received a very good offer where all our wishes were perfectly included. This is why we decided for Adventure Treks Nepal.
Arriving at the airport Gyan appeared in person to pick us up and to bring us to the hotel. It was a warm welcome; everything was organized and well explained.
After two days in Kathmandu we started with our "Gokyo Ri-trip". Our guide was very calm, reliable, helpful and very gentle; furthermore we had a strong and also gentle porter. Accommodation facilities were nice. Our hike was absolutely fantastic; we enjoyed every day and had a very good time – unforgettable!
Returning to Kathmandu, we spent some days there and made the second trip to Chitwan-NP, which was also well organized and prepared.
In summary we can say that we were very satisfied with "Adventure Treks Nepal", and that we had one of our best vacations in life in Nepal! We will for sure come back one day, and "Adventure Treks Nepal" shall be our first address to contact.
