Two-Day Trek through the Hills to Nagarkot

Two days Trek to Nagarkot,  After finishing up a University program in Nepal and with not much personal time to spare, a cousin of mine recommended I link up with Chandra for a two-day trek through the hills to Nagarkot. I highly regarded Chandra. As he and my cousin have formed a strong friendship from all the trekking. They had undertaken together and had also proved himself highly skilled and knowledgeable.

Two days Trek to Nagarkot was sufficient in providing the awe-striking scenic views of the Himalayan mountain range coupled with an awesome physical adventure out in nature. The choice of accommodation and food was excellent at both Chisipani and Nagarkot. With awesome rooftop views at the latter. Chandra was a great company throughout the experience which made the experience very pleasurable.

Planning to fly back end of the year and have a go at ABC. I highly recommend Chandra and his crew!!

Upper Mustang Tea House TrekUK and Taiwan 5

Upper Mustang Tea House Trek 2016, Chandra organized this 10 day Upper Mustang trek for myself and my wife in Nov 2016 providing a guide and porter, etc. We found him and his staff very friendly and efficient. And have no hesitation in recommending his services to anyone coming to Nepal.

The scenery in the Upper Mustang is fantastic and unlike any other trek in Nepal. The downside is that 80% of the trek is on the new road. Though it is not busy. It can be a bit of a pain having the dust in your face by passing jeeps and bikes. So, unless you really want to do Mustang I would suggest asking Chandra to organize a different trek in Nepal (there are many) for you. I’m sure you’ll have a great time with him.

Annapurna Circuit Trek in 2005

I first met Chandra in January 2005, when he acted as a guide for a friend and me during the Annapurna circuit trek in 2005. His knowledge, mountain skills, and professionalism ensured. We had an absolutely amazing time and always felt safe despite the difficult conditions.

We kept in regular contact and I used Chandra as a trekking guide again in 2010, when I returned to Nepal. Even after the trek finish. He was more than willing to show me some of the less tourist areas of Kathmandu free of charge. That’s the kind of guy he is. I would thoroughly recommend him to anyone looking for an educational, reliable and reasonably priced guide in Nepal.

Manaslu and Annapurna Circle

Manaslu and Annapurna Circuit, I have my trekking booked locally. So I met in Kathmandu with Chandra repeatedly and he has taken a lot of time for me. The night before the trek then I could even take my guide. The trek was great and surpassed my expectations. The Guide has always tried hard for me. And has credited to my wishes. Everything works beautifully and the tour was very inexpensive.

I was alone with the guide on the go and always had my own room. So, I am thrilled by the mountains of Nepal and this organization. For my next trekking, I’ll book again with them, Chandra really organized everything very professionally … Thank you so much Simbir and Chandra. !!!

14 Days Annapurna Circuit and 17 days Everest Base Camp + Island Peak trip

Annapurna and Island Peak Trip, Annapurna Circuit very well-organized and beautiful trek. I suggest taking the jeep/bus after Muktinath and including the poon hill trek at Ghorepani.

The EBC Trek was also amazing. I began the trek without the helper but it ended up being too difficult so I recommend hiring the helper from Lukla. We trekked to Gorakshep 5130M and then on to EBC in the afternoon. The next morning we walked up to Kalapathar in time for sunrise. I think possibly you could do this walk a little later (7 am) or in the afternoon to see Everest at Sunset.

Annapurna and Island Peak Trip. Island peak was a tough climb. We left base camp at 1:00 am and submitted it as 8:00 am. They stayed in tents at base camp and it was quite cold so a good sleeping bag is necessary. Overall it was a very good trip with decent food and accommodation. Island peak climbing guide – Dilip, Trekking Guide Dinesh, Helper – Milan all were very good.

I would highly recommend this company to anyone thinking of going in the future.

Best trekking company – Annapurna circuit experience 2016

Best Trekking Company, We had the fortune of my parents using Himalaya Guide Nepal. And doing the Annapurna circuit in October 2015. They spoke so highly of Chandra and their guide (Salman) and porter (Ramesh). That I couldn’t go and experience this myself. So in April 2016 my sister and I embarked on the same journey.

Best Trekking Company, They took such amazing care and consideration of us. We both fell ill at stages during the trip and they went above. And beyond to help and make us comfortable and safe. I strongly recommend using this company. It was obvious during our trek that our guide service was far superior to the others. We met along the way. They take such good care and made the trip so much more enjoyable. There are some Trekkers who don’t use guides – but they were constantly asking our guide/porter for directions and assistance which I don’t feel is fair. They provide an amazing service and should be compensated. When we arrived back in Kathmandu after the trek. We were again greeted by Chandra and taken back to the hotel and presented with a token of love medals to keep with the Annapurna circuit details.

I am already looking at coming back next year to do the Everest base camp and would only use Himalaya Guide Nepal Pvt. Ltd. I hope this review was helpful to others, one thing I would recommend with the Annapurna circuit is don’t miss poon hill this is very cool. Also if you’re a keen Trekker consider adding an extra two days to include Lake Tilicho (from Manang) – Chandra is very helpful to discuss with him before you come and he will sort.

We highly recommend this company for anyone thinking of going in the future for your holiday in Nepal.

Excellent 2015

Excellent 2015, Trekking the Annapurna circuit has been my ‘bucket list’ for a number of years. I don`t really know why other than the beauty of the Himalayas and a challenge of a long walk at attitude over a number of days to experience this. It was a challenge when planning the trip we wanted to have a guide and helper, hence we started searching as the interest and we came up with the above.

They have proved to be outstanding in their organization. And the guide and helper chose exceptionally. The boys were friendly, helpful, and careful of safety. But most of all they were fun to be with. I can absolutely recommend (Himalaya Guide Nepal Pvt Ltd.) this firm and guaranteed that. They will deliver a wonderful experience. Trekking the Annapurna circuit has been on my ‘bucket list’ for a number of years. I don`t really know why other than the beauty of the Himalayas. And a challenge of a long walk attitude over a number of days to experience this.

Very Very Happy – Tilicho Lake Trek!!

Happy Tilicho Lake Trek, We engaged Himalaya Guide Nepal at very short notice due to issues with our original guide service suddenly not replying to our emails. And leaving us feeling a bit vulnerable. I’m happy to report that Chandra not only organized our trip with very short notice. But he was also able to make some adjustments at our request only a day out.

Happy Tilicho Lake Trek, The quality of Denish (his younger brother) as our guide surpassed all our expectations. He is studying English literature. So, needless to say, communication was never an issue, and he had a genuine love of, and willingness to share his culture. Above all, he was genuinely kind, and always put our needs before his own. Massive thanks to our porter Bersing who put us feeble westerners to shame with his strength and stamina!

If I return to Nepal (and I may) would definitely seek out their services!

Thanks, guys!

Wonderful Time in Nepal

Wonderful Time in Nepal. We had a wonderful time on our Annapurna Base Camp Trek in Nepal in 2015. Dinesh was a likely, knowledgeable, and attractive guide. But his ever-present smile and attention to detail made the more difficult part of the trek easier. It was particularly helpful to hear about the plan for our trek. Because we were alone our daily briefing was perfect for this purpose.

We had seen many mountains like Mt. Dhaulagiri, Tukuche Peak, Nilgiri, Annapurna South, Annapurna I, Annapurna II, Himchuli, Fishtail, and many more.

Thank you again for such a wonderful experience. So, I highly recommend this company and hope to return to trek ABC again will. Thanks.

Magical Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek

Magical Manaslu Tsum Valley. Trekking in Nepal is magical. What makes it magical is not only the place but the people you meet. And the friends you make along the way. In October and November 2012, we spent three weeks trekking with Chandra Gurung as our guide in the Manaslu and Tsum Valley regions of the Himalaya. Every day he guided us through small villages, high valleys, and beautiful peaks. He watched over us on the trails and made sure. So, we had good food at each stop which kept us healthy and safe. He is a very competent guide and speaks English fluently. His medical training was needed when we had stomach and virus problems. He always put his client’s wishes and happiness first.

His infectious laugh made a long journey easy, and we became very good friends. Because he has good knowledge of the area and familiarity with the locals provided us with a wonderful cultural experience. Because we stayed with families and local teahouses. We can heartily recommend him as a well-educated, warm, and friendly guide who will do everything possible to make your trekking in Nepal a perfect experience. We look forward to the day that we can return and trek with our friends in Nepal.

Upper Mustang Trek

Upper Mustang Trek Review, It’s easy to find them on the internet and they respond to emails fast. The guide is good at navigating on the treks and in the villages. They are friendly, hard-working, and good at accommodating changes (when one of us gets sick). I wish they could talk more about the culture and history of this wonderful Tibetan kingdom. And does not confuse between pre-historic dwellings and rabbit caves. I highly recommended this company if you are looking for a trip to Nepal.

We had a great experience during the trekking. So, If you are looking for trekking in Nepal then do not forget to visit Upper Mustang Trek because it is different than other treks in Nepal.

Je recommande fortement Himalaya Guide Nepal

Je recommande fortement Himalaya Guide Nepal, J’ai eu une très bonne expérience de trek autour du Manaslu avec notre guide Dinesh Gurung et porteur Dipak Gurung. Ils ont fait tout leur possible pour nous faire sentir comfortable et pour répondre à tous nos besoins. Ils avaient une très bonne connaissance des hébergements, récents changements du sentier, et des dangers potentiels.

L’expertise de notre guide nous a permis d’avoir un séjour plaisant en toute sécurité. Ce trek nous a non seulement permis de découvrir des paysages magnifiques mais aussi d’apprendre sur la culture nepalaise grâce à notre guide.

Chandra à aussi fait un super travail en organisant le séjour depuis kathmandu.

Everest Base Camp Trek

After having trekked the Annapurna circuit last year, EBC remained on our list to do. We only decided to do this at very short notice. And sent a tentative inquiry to Chandra to see if it was possible. Within 24 hours everything was organized and off we went. While we had some idea of the demands of trekking in Nepal after Annapurna. EBC is in a completely different league as far as physically challenged. It was definitely a lot harder, given both a prolonged period at higher altitudes. And colder temperatures morning and evening to contend with. On the other side, we had magnificent weather with blue skies every day. So November is definitely a good time to do this trek.

The views were simply stunning. Everest, Lhotse, Amadablam, etc. Our guide Dinesh was fantastic, taking care of all the details and looking after us really well. He picked great accommodation for getting us the best rooms in the lodges. Every night he cut up some fresh Jomson apples for us for dessert! The flight into Lukla was amazing and a real highlight. The walk and acclimatization days were all well-planned and most enjoyable. During the day with the sun out, it was very warm. In addition to our guide, we had a helper (Surat)to carry our gear, which I recommend. You don’t have to be super fit to do this walk provide you don’t overstress yourself. I took Diamox (125mg) morning and evening and that helped prevent any symptoms of altitude sickness, which I suffered the year before on Annapurna, where I didn’t take this drug.

Interestingly enough we met a Canadian Neurologist who was also taking Diamox. So, that in my mind click to the fact I was doing the right thing. Chandra and his team at Himalaya Guide Nepal Pvt Limited are great to deal with and would heartily recommend them to anyone. Family-friendly and professional they cover all the basics. Our next trip is to Pokhara and their village.

Magical Mustang Trip!

Magical Mustang Trip. Our holiday in Nepal was amazing because of many reasons. Some of them were very obvious – the region of Mustang was magical, the nature so beautiful, and the authentic atmosphere we could see with lots of interesting domestic people, customs, and traditions. However, there were other reasons which made us the best trekking we could have ever had. The organization of our trekking by the agency Himalaya Guide Nepal Pvt. Ltd. was great. The services they provided us with were perfect. They really took care of our trip, we had everything arranged perfectly – the food, the accommodation, transfers, everything. I would recommend this agency to everyone who wants to visit this wonderful region.

Extremely Effective and Friendly Service!

Friendly Service, We just returned from trekking the Annapurna Circuit and Tilicho lake, Because we were very lucky to find a great trekking company in KTM. We engaged a porter and guide, So, their services were very efficient. Our guide had a great knowledge of the region and our porter was very helpful at all times. Mr. Chandra, the manager was in constant contact with us and the guide ensuring everything was going well.
