What people love about touring Nepal solo
- Solo-ish Nepal
Unforgettable Experience with G Adventures – and the Best Guide Ever, Sandiip! I had the most incredible journey with G Adventures, and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing guide, Sandiip. From start to finish, everything was well-organized, thoughtfully planned, and filled with authentic local experiences that you just can’t get on your own. Sandiip went above and beyond every single day. His deep knowledge, warm personality, and genuine care for the group made all the difference. He wasn’t just a guide—he was a storyteller, a problem-solver, a friend, and a constant source of positive energy. He made sure everyone felt safe, included, and inspired throughout the trip. Whether it was navigating local culture, sharing personal insights, or simply making us laugh after a long day, Sandiip brought heart and soul to the journey. I feel incredibly lucky to have had him as our guide. This trip exceeded all expectations, and I would absolutely travel with G Adventures again—especially if I knew Sandiip was leading the way.
- Explore Iconic Triangle City of Nepal Kathmandu, Chitwan & Pokhara
super nice and great trip. I was alone in the "group" trip. Although in the explanation it is mentioned that public transport is used for the connections between the 3 destinations - it is not clear that there is not a guide that follows the entire trip. So basically, you travel alone and in each destination there are other guides. This is not a problem - but should be better explained to candidates.
- Buddhist Darshan Tour - 10 Days
" We found the Adventure Himalayan Travels and Treks company as a whole to be extremely communicated and straightforward, and the overall experience met, then exceeded our expectations of the circuit. First of all Nepal and the Himalayan are amazing, but having a great guide and porter made the experience that much better. The guide and porter were protective, knowledgeable, and patient with our grop of four, and always made sure we were warm, fed,and full of honey, lemon and ginger tea. I highly recommend this company. please edit and copy paste it givens link. You con search Upper Mustang put it
