Booked with Trekking Planner to do the Manaslu Circuit on the recommendation of a friend who did Annapurna Base Camp with them last year and had a brilliant time. We were met at the airport and transported to our hotel where we were met by the owner Dipac who had as briefed and sorted with kit in short order. We had the same guide, Binod who is a lovely and cheerful man. Very knowledgeable, very perceptive and always ready to offer help and advice when needed. He keeps a sharp, but low key eye on his group and will slow the pace to suit all of the party members or move a little quicker if all is going well. He had plenty of excellent advice on preparing for altitude and he was thorough with the blood O2 checks. He is very well known on the circuit and was greeted cheerfully wherever he went. Paperwork and chekpoints were all handled smoothly and professionally. His support of the group at the end of each day was great too and the evening card games were a highlight for me. I learned and got thrashed at 3 new games! We had 2 excellent porters, Thaman and Aitaman who were also amazing and always ready with a cheery greeting and a smile. They handled the baggage with care and made sure it was there to greet you in your room at the end of the day. It was nice to have them join in the card games in the evening as well and made for a very included and intimate experience all round. I cannot recommend the company enough if you a thinking of visiting Nepal.

Having just finished the Manaslu circuit trek I wanted to recommend Trekking Planner as a fantastic company to go with.
Dipak personalised our itinerary and was constantly flexible to accommodate changes throughout the three weeks we spent in Nepal. As a group of four older clients (57 - 67 yrs) we were very aware it was going to be tough. However our guide Binod was positive and encouraging. He was full of energy and a joy to be with. He communicated clearly the outline of each day and what was important, organising the food and accommodation at the tea houses, as well as being on hand at all times to sort anything we needed. Binod's super power was getting to know us very fast as individuals and as a group. He was able to tell quickly by reading our faces what we needed as we faced some challenging days. We trusted him implicitly as he gently trained us up for the big successful day over the pass (lots of sleep, keep it steady and drink lots of water!) Binod has been amazing! I feel I have made a friend after the hours we have spent together chatting about Nepal and learning so much about his culture. He was a mine of information about so many things. I must not forget to mention our two porters; Thamen and Aitaman, they worked tirelessly to carry our bags, always smiling and cheerful whenever we saw them, as well being really helpful at the tea houses. I have had a fantastic trekking experience. Thank you Binod, Thaman and Aitaman.

We had an amazing experience with trekking planner! We have gone with them twice now and everything was perfectly organised for us. Our guide was Ananta and thanks to him we had an excellent trip. He is very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of good advice for our time in the mountains. He also was so kind, patient, supporting and helpful at all times and adjusted our journey according to our needs. We were able to go to Everest Base Camp, Chola Pass and Gokyo Ri! This was the second time with Ananta as our guide and I can only recommend going with him and booking your trip through trekking planner. We had a wonderful time with them. Thank you for everything!

The trip was well organised keeping in mind the comfort of kids. Changes in the plan were nicely accommodated. Guides drivers all are excellent. Decent hotels were also provided. Overall must recommended planners to go with

We had another great trek with trekking planner! I have trekked 3 times with them in Nepal and everytime Dipak and everyone in the company have been extremely helpful and everything has been well organised! Our guide was Ananta and he did a great job in supporting us and making sure we could do everything we wanted despite some challenges. We were able to go to Everest Base Camp, Chola Pass and Gokyo Ri. If you want to do the EBC trek or something similar then I would definitely recommend Trekking planner and Ananta because they are so well organised, professional and supportive. Thank you!

Wspaniała przygoda,którą zapamiętam na całe życie.Wspaniałe widoki,cudowni ludzie,Dipendra nasz przewodnik wspaniale się nami opiekował,profesjonalnie wszystko organizował i dbał onas

Fantastic experience a well organized family outing and a special thanks to dipak for making this memorable. Well arranged and no hassles.

Enjoyed a one week tour around three of Nepal’s major destinations, Kathmandu, Pokhara, and Chitwan National Park. Trekking Planner helped to organize the entire trip and customize the itinerary as we wanted. The local guides chosen by Trekking Planner helped to accompany us at each stop of our journey and were all deeply knowledgeable of the cities and culture. We appreciated the attention to detail that Trekking Planner put into crafting a pleasant adventure and the quality of choices from hotels to attractions that they made.
