"Ananta and Indra were our guides on our trek to Everest Base Camp, they were incredible and went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and looked after us when we had altitude sickness. Would definitely request them for a great trip. Dipak was a great organiser and customised our itinerary to suit our needs. Thank you Trekking Planner for everything!"

Wow! What a beautiful experience I had on the Ghorepani Poon Hill trek, organized by Dipak, and guided by the incredible human, Nirmal. I arrived in Kathmandu without a plan and wrote to Dipak in the middle of the night, asking if he might be able to help me organize a trek in the next couple of days. He responded almost immediately and put together a trek that I will never forget: his precision, warmth, and attention to detail are impeccable.

As a guide, I do not think you could really ever ask for a kinder, more patient, and gentle guide than Nirmal. He taught me a lot about the kind of person I strive to be. Watching the way Nirmal interacted with everyone we encountered on the trek inspired me on so many levels, not only because he seemed to have friends in every corner, but even those individuals he hadn't met, he treated with reverence and respect, from the myriad porters, to the juice vendors, to the elderly villagers attending to their daily work.

Nepal's landscape is breathtaking and Nirmal knows every inch of the trails: the forests we walked through were beyond pristine, painted pink above and below as the flower petals of the rhododendrons create an otherworldly atmosphere with endless waterfalls, buffalo, sheep, and mossy neon trees. We wandered through villages high in the mountains where I often felt as though I was the only foreigner, and witness to a completely different way of life. Because I was with Nirmal, I was welcomed in a way I'm sure I wouldn't have been on my own.

The Nepalese people's spirituality seems to be encapsulated in their kindness, which emanates from almost all the individuals I encountered. Nirmal embodied this as he carried my horribly shaped bag without a single complaint, and gave me permission to go "slowly slowly," and Dipak, each time he checked in with me, or offered to help me with each and every detail.

I know I will return to Nepal and I cannot recommend enough that if you are thinking of coming to Nepal, DO IT. You will never regret it, and if/when you do, Dipak and Nirmal will do everything in their power to ensure that you have an unforgettable experience. I give them my highest recommendation.

Dipak and his mountaineering team are very flexible, dedicated and fully supporting. A great pleasure, and a good escape from COVID in Germany to friendly people in a Nepal with little Covid problems in the mountains.

Our group had the pleasure to really enjoy the trip to Annapurna base camp with a Trekking planner in October 2021. Everything proposed was fully done, even more. Our guide Ramez and porter Milan were real professionals and great companions. The sole has fallen off my wife´s boot, no shoemaker at hand, and Ramez very precisely fixed the sole with 5 superglue sticks. What an amazing job, worked perfectly for 3 rainy days! Their hospitality was really breathtaking, nobody cared about me so much from my childhood. They truly helped us to fulfill their wishes “enjoy your holiday”, “take your time”, “enjoy the mountains”. Thanks to the Trekking planner our journey was completely on another level.
After our last goodbye at the airport problem with PCR test suddenly occured (mandatory to enter the airport!) and Dipak immediately helped to solve our problem and gave us huge support, even though he didnt have to. Dipak really saved our journey!

Ultimately pulled off EBC from the bucket list with an extremely professional and well-organized travel connoisseur Trekking Planner! We took on a 12-day trek package with Trekking Planner and what impressed me most was the professionalism of Dipak Lamichhane and his team. Dipak was very responsive to our queries about the trek and from the moment we arrived at the airport, he was there behind the scenes making our trip as smooth as it could get . Our trekking guide Gyeljan was amazing and would constantly check on our well being and give us tips on how to avoid AMS. Our porters were amazing as well and they made sure we got to EBC in the best condition possible. To add on, Trekking Planner was well connected and often we stayed in guesthouses which exceeded my expectations. Trekking Planner has been a great choice for our trek and deserves the highest praise:) Thanks for the cherishable memories Trekking Planner.

I just completed a climb with Trekking Planner- Gyeljan Sherpa and I summited Mera peak on 4/30 and made a dream of mine come true! This is the second time i come to Nepal with Trekking Planner and it is always a pleasure to plan and work with Dipak! Everything is organized to the smallest detail-from airport pick up, to meals and gear rentals-everything is great every time! Gyeljan was more than an excellent guide, he made sure i am ok at all times not only physically but mentally also when above 6000m! Pasang was also making sure i am well fed and taken care of at all times while at the lodges. Dipak made sure the return and stay at hotel was rescheduled smoothly due to ongoing changes. This is an amazing company that provides the best service both in Kathmandu and high in the mountains! I will be back next year for sure!!! Thank you for everything!!!

"We had the best 12 days with our guide Ramesh trekking to Annapurna Base camp in May 2019 (slow on the review, sorry!) The scenery was so beautiful and Ramesh was excellent company and so knowledgable. We can’t speak highly enough about the experience - if you’re planning a trip make sure to ask for Ramesh! 10/10!"

Amazing experience with Trekking Planner from start to finish and I can't thank all those involved enough! Deepak was extremely helpful in organising the perfect trek and anything else I needed and it was obvious from my arrival at the airport that he had a great team with him. I was greeted by Suman, a very friendly character who helped me a lot over the following days in organising myself for the upcoming trek. For the trek, my guide Nirmal was absolutely fantastic! I would say he definitely enhanced an already amazing experience. He was extremely knowledgeable, professional, organised and very easy to get along with. Full credit to Deepak for choosing such a great team.

You don't need to look anywhere else for your Nepal adventures. This is a whole team who cares about your experience and ensuring that you'll leave with fantastic memories and awesome experiences.
Thank you
