Fantastic 15 day Annapurna Base Camp trek. The whole trip was brilliant, and the mountains are spectacular. Our guide, Binod, was absolutely excellent. He was unfailingly cheerful, knowledgeable, funny and informative. He took excellent care of us the whole time. The owner, Dipak, made some good suggestions to customise our trip, and then made further changes at our request to give us the perfect experience. Dipak was always available to answer any questions, and was able to quickly arrange alternative transport when our flight from Pokhara airport was cancelled. Thanks to Binod and Dipak we had the holiday of a lifetime!

In July 2023 we had a great tour organized by Trekking Planner including both visits to historical sites and a spectacular trek in the Annapurna region. Before going to Nepal we worked jointly on the details of the tour and their advise revealed to be very helpful. We have greatly appreciated the organization of the tour and their prompt support for any kind of request. Strongly recommended! 👍🏻

Dipak and his enterprise is amazing! He came recommended from a friend but boy were we pleasantly surprised with how well we were taken care of. From the point you land in Kathmandu to the time they drop of you off at the airport - it feels they are your family. He has an amazing group of people! Lets start with Ananta & Jeevan. Ananta was our guide and Jeevan was our porter - they were the key to the whole experience! Ananta is a soft spoken guy who doesnt speak much but when he does its worth listening to every word. He made things happen for us....he would never push us , he understood our pace and was a constant source of encouragement and help. Jeevan - just 18 years old but he literally and figuratively carried our burden for us which made our life super-easy! 

While I could rattle off multiple examples of how this group is unbeliavble, I would like to highlight one situation....we decided that we wanted to change our itinerary and do a heli back to Kathmandu and he made it happen!

Ananta always took care of my picky food requests and ensured that my food was always done right!

Dipak has done the hard yards from being a porter to running this very successful business. his son-in-law and daughter are amazing as well and I HIGHLY recommend that you book your adventure with them! You will not be disappointed!

From the moment I was greeted at the airport, my whole experience with Trekking Planner has been incredible! Could not have asked for a more enjoyable experience with Nirmal as my guide on the base camp trek. Not only was he professional and knowledgeable on the landscape and culture but he was just so fun to be around and have a good laugh which was a highlight of my trip.

Highly recommend both Nirmal and Trekking Planner!

I had an incredible experience with Nirmal. He is kind, empathetic, and willing to go the extra mile for anyone. There was a point in the trip when I got injured, and he carried both my backpack AND his backpack (both of which were veryyy heavy). I could not recommend him enough!

I did the yoga trek to Everest base camp and it was hands down one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Nirmal was my guide and hands down amazing. He was very funny, knowledgeable and in-tune with the group. I don’t think my trek would have been as perfect without him. 100% recommend going with trekking planner and requesting Nirmal for your guide.

I climbed Island Peak with Trekking Planner and it was a journey of a lifetime. I never though I was able to climb that high. My guide Gyalgen Sherpa was super professional and supportive. He ensured my safety and guided me on the path very well. I could not make it without him. Highly recommended!

I recently completed the Manaslu and Tsum Valley trek with Trekking Planner and I can honestly say that it was one of the best decisions I made. I’m a 22-year old female student and I decided to go on my own. From the beginning on it was very easy to communicate and get any information from Dipak, who was always very professional and helpful. He answered all my questions, gave me some advice and was always very honest with me. Everyone I met at the agency was very kind and welcoming. During the trek I had an absolutely incredible time. My guide Shusil and the porter Thoman both did an amazing job and were such a nice company. I always felt safe, had a lot of time for myself but never felt alone. We really adapted the trek to my pace and needs, and Shusil was always ready to help me, especially when we had to modify the itinerary when I got sick. We had a lot of fun and it really felt like a little family for these two weeks. I’m truly grateful for everyone in the agency for this unforgettable experience. Thank you so much for everything!
