One day nagarkot sunrise tour

  My sister and i did the photography tour visiting the 7 UNESCO heritage sites around Kathmandu Valley. Our tour guide Dinesh and photographer Ajaya were both incredible. It was our... read more first time to Nepal and we wanted a leisurely trip where we could learn about the local culture, whilst at the same time learn photography. I started the trip with zero confidence in operating a camera in manual mode, and by the end of the tour, i can't imagine ever using a camera in auto again. I took many great photos of monuments and people with the help of the photographer each step of the way, which combined with the explanations and stories from the guide, gives much depth and meaning to the photos I took. Communication with the Nepal Hiking Team was smooth and they responded swiftly to all my queries. I would recommend using Nepal Hiking Team.

  We had a fantastic experience completing the EBC trip with The Nepal Hiking Team as a group of 5. Everything was extremely well planned including all travel arrangements, meals and... read more accommodation, allowing us to focus on enjoying the views and the hiking!

Our guides, Dhurba and Raj couldn’t have been more helpful. Always staying positive and keeping the us going when it was tough!

Thank you very much for the great experience!

  We had the BEST time with NHT! Originally, we were in Nepal in March 2020 to do this trek but decided to fly home instead of continuing with the trek... read more due to the pandemic. When we met with NHT to tell them our decision to go home, they were more than gracious - they let us know our deposit would never expire and even offered to let us use a trekking bag to bring home all the stuff we had purchased there for the trek! Flash forward to almost two years later and we finally got to go back to Nepal to do the EBC trek (December 2021). Ganga and his team were wonderful communicating with us via e-mail before we left. Any questions or concerns we had were responded to quickly. Once we arrived in Nepal, we were completely cared for the entire time!

Our guide, Paban, made our trip a once-in-a-lifetime experience (I still don't think I would have made it to basecamp without him). He was kind, patient, knowledgeable, encouraging, and funny. There are some really long stretches of uphill climbs on the trail. At any point on the trail, I could ask him, "how much further to____?" and he would know exactly how much longer we had to go. Also, every morning he briefed us on the day's trail, how much water to bring, etc. It was great knowing what to expect each day. He was also incredibly encouraging - he really believed we could make it and said so. This encouraged us to keep going even when we were tired or discouraged. Paban was also great at knowing when to walk with us (and make small talk, tell us facts, etc.) and when to give us space by ourselves. As an introvert, it was nice not having someone wanting to chat the entire time. Nothing was ever a burden for him either. He went above and beyond to make sure we were also comfortable and happy (getting us the best rooms, making sure the showers were hot enough, carrying my backpack, etc.). When you are in a place that is rugged, you don't know the language, your body is doing weird things in response to the altitude, you are tired, etc. - you'll want a guide from NHT. As we were coming back down from base camp, we ran into a group from NHT going up. They had the same level of attentiveness and service from their guide too.

Also, when we were delayed a day on the mountain returning to Kathmandu due to cloud cover, Paban and Ganga did everything they could to get us down. When it became apparent in late afternoon the clouds weren't going to allow any planes or helicopters into Lukla, NHT made sure we got seats on the first plane out the next day. This was extremely important to us as we had flights home later that same day. Without them and their connections, I'm sure we wouldn't have been on the first plane out. They also were able to put a rush on our COVID PCR tests once we got back to Kathmandu so we had the necessary documentation to go home and wouldn't have to change our flights.

  Very well organized trekking and my guide Netra took great care of me the whole time. Made a last minute decision to take a heli out to enjoy the view... read more and they went all out to ensure that I managed to get a slot for the heli shuttle. Thanks so much!

  My trip has been such an incredible experience! My guide was professional, funny and had respond to all my needs! I'm really scared of height but Gokul made sure I... read more felt safe and ok while crossing the suspension bridge. We met other trekkers on the road and had such a fun and memorable time ! I definitely highly recommend Nepal Hiking team. You are in good hands by choosing them :) As a female solo traveler, I was a bit worry before leaving Canada but I had nothing to worry with this company :)

  We took our family of five to Nepal in mid-June to hike the Langtang Valley Trek. With 3 young children under the age of 10, we decided to go with... read more the Nepal Hiking Team. The owner, Ganga, was very organized and set up several family hiking options for us. Our hiking guide, Arjun Sigdel, was very knowledgeable about the area, culture, food, and geography. He was very flexible and accommodating to our children’s needs. We hired a guide, Dhuuba Itani, to carry our 3-year-old and he was very patient and calm. The Nepal Hiking Team provided two guys, Namaraj Thapa and Sandeep Bhatta, to carry our gear which we appreciated so much. It was a great team and our kids loved hiking the Langtang Valley Trek with them. This 6-day hike was the perfect amount of challenge for our kids. We loved our deep conversations while hiking, singing songs, and playing cards at night in the tea huts.

We would recommend the Nepal Hiking Team and Arjun if you are planning a trip to Nepal. Watch our Nepal vlogs on YT, Bags Packed Family, if you want to see more about our successful family hike.
