Great trip! Everything was coordinated perfectly. The pace, destinations and experiences were good. Our guide, Badri Karki, was awesome and fun. His comments, educational and historical information about what we were visiting or seeing was much appreciated. Badri is a gentleman and nice guy. Overall a fantastic experience.
- Nepal at a Glance -11 Days
Nepal at a Glance operated by Himalayan Adventure Treks & Tours was an excellent tour. The places selected for the tour, the hotels (especially the one at Lumbini), the guides, and my driver all met my expectations or beyond. I was especially impressed with my driver Kazi who navigated difficult road and traffic conditions with skill and good humour. The owner was flexible, adding two more days to my tour and everything was very well organized with each hotel greeting me as I arrived. Overall, I feel that this tour provided very good value for the money
