Manaslu Circuit Trek
Everything, from our first email communication, the generous welcoming dinner, to the last farewell at our hotel, before we were driven to the airport, run in the best possible way. The main course has been the amazing Manaslu circuit, a ten days adventure of driving and trekking in the valleys, through the villages and over the impressive Larke La pass around the 8th heighest mountain in the world. Bonus an incredible extension hike up to the beautiful Pungyen Gumpa with the stunning view of the whole mountain, from its base to the top. It was a great experience. Our guide Rudra and our porter Kantsa did an absolutely great job, ensuring every day that our trek would be safe, fun and (given the circumstances) comfortable, while they gave us a nice insight into the Nepali mentality, culture and way of life.
An issue, which we communicated with them on spot as well, is the waste managment in the mountainous areas and villages. We know that the living conditions up there are really harsh and difficult and we know, of course, that this is obviously not a fault of the company and staff involved in the operation of this trek, but rather a deeper structural and educational issue. But, we think that the situation is a disrespect to the unique nature that the country is blessed with and which is a main attraction for its visitors and to the visitors themselves, especially since some hoteliers and accomodation owners/staff very simply place the facility's garbage in front of guest's rooms doors and windows. We furthermore think that some organised action on behalf of the trekking agencies, guides and relevant associations would possibly achieve some goals in this direction and we hope for a wind of change to the better in the future.
Summarizing, we would like to thank Adventure Himalayan Travels & Treks, mr. Rana, Rudra and Kantsa for this great experience. Keep the good job! Eat Dal Bhat! Till the next time..DionysiosKGreeceMay 14, 2024Druk Path Trek with Culture Tour - 10 Days
Bhutan - One of the best trips away I have ever had
May 2024 • Solo
Adventure Himalayas set up and excellent tour for me in Central Bhutan, taking in Paro, Timpu and Punacka as the main bases. Had to bail out of the Druk Trek early on due to Altitude Sickness (it of course happens to us all at sometime!). My guide and driver along with the tour operator in Bhutan were able to however to provide me with a fantastic alternative package of lower level hikes in the forests lower down. The Guide and Driver I was supplied were first class. They both knew the area really well and explained well the inner workings of Budism. (Very confusing!). The Monstaries, Forts and Temples visited were amazing, particularly the art work. Nowhere was crowded with tourists and there were very few Westerners about (Most Tourists were from India) . The Hotels allocated to me were first class in terms of service and all in the centre of towns, which gave greater opportunity to experiance the local scene. All were also small and therefore easy to escape from. A fanatastic break. Well worth the heavy Tourist Tax (Once there Bhutan is very cheap for day to day expenses). The experiance delivered by the Tour Operator on the ground was first class. Scenery was amazing, particularly if you are into Mountains, Flora (the Rhododendrons were amazing) and Forna

It was a very nice tour and very well organized. Even before I arrived there was very nice contact with the organizer Rana, who responded quickly to inquiries. And then I had a very good guide with Rudra Dhoj Weiba. He always motivated me, also with humor, because at a hight over 4000 meters it was very exhausting for me. And he was not only a guide, but also a "doctor" when I had a cold. :) I can highly recommend Adventure Himalayan Travels and the Guide Rubra Dhoj Waiba and last but not least: the price-performance ratio is also very good.

We did the 10 day trek with helicopter return to Everest Base Camp and had a wonderful experience with Adventure Himalayan Travels & Treks in March 2024. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helped us work through some unexpected situations. We were in good hands with our guide and porters throughout the entire journey. I highly recommend using this company because they made our trek an unforgettable experience! Thank you Rana for coordinating everything and making this an unbelievable trip.

I cannot thank Rana enough and his company Adventure Himalayan Travels for the best trekking of my life. Great communication throughout the planning and arrival process. The journey itself was challenging and rewarding; however, having a great guide made it a perfect one. Attentive, knowledgeable and protective would be the best words to describe my guide Tej. If you are looking to challenge yourself with a secure and professional company, Adventure Himalayan Travels is the best way to go. I will use them in the future.

Amazing, Stunning Scenery, Wonderful helpful Company!
Sep 2023 • Couples
We hiked the Langtang Valley with this company and I cannot speak more highly regarding our experience. Rana organised the best of everything to make our trip memorable. The Porter and Guide were both wonderful, friendly and helpful people. The scenery was spectacular and we didn't have to worry about anything.
Rana (who is the owner of the Company) also helped us to organise a second trek which we wanted to do on our own and he was more than happy to help us for no reason other than being helpful. We we're so impressed by this as he had nothing to gain except being nice! Rana you are the best :-) Many many thanks from 2 very happy travellersDavid SAustraliaNov 18, 2023
