Testimonials

Our trekking trip to Nepal was organized at the last minute. Yet, Nature trail met all our expectations to the minor detail with respect to the organization of our private trek. Additionally, our guide, Gelbu, was extremely friendly and very professional.

The bottom line is that if you have high expectations for a trekking trip to Nepal and are looking for great organization and great customer service – as we did, don’t look any further. Nature Trail is the one. Its staff is truly committed to elevate your trip from great to memorable. We will not hesitate to plan our next trip with Nature Trail when the time comes.

Thank you!

I arrived to Nepal to meet my friend Jude G (review below) with little idea about Nepal, Annapurna trekking and what it would be like. Firstly, Bishnu the office manager met with us on a Saturday afternoon, outside of his work hours to talk us through some options. He arranged us to visit a monastery as well as to the Annapurna trail to suit our needs (both timing and distances). Bishnu planned our trek for us with very little organisation required from us which was perfect. Our guide Phura was to me, so much more than a guide. As a Sherpa he takes his duty very consuentciously. Not only does he share knowledge and insights, he helped me with the descent down, and was a helpful singing buddy passing those hours trekking. We had a lot more fun on this trek than expected. The lodges in the villages were more comfortable than imagined. Our guide really was exceptional, even reaching out to help others who didn’t have guides and were underprepared for the journey.

How lucky we were! I would just really question why any trekker wouldn’t get a guide to share in local traditions (like Rhaksi local wine) or Tibetan tea, which were only able to be arranged through his social and language skills. We were able to relax mentally to give our energy to the task of a trek as well as the lovely evening hours socialising with the Sherpas and other trekkers. I didn’t expect to be so well supported on a personal level and the guide support really meant so much that I couldn’t imagine trekking again without his company. Nepal is meant to be the most re-visited country on earth, and with all my interactions with this company and the relationships they build, I can easily see long lasting connections and future returns to Nepal!

DANYARBAD!

My friends Dave and Parag and I did a trek to Everest Base Camp in early June. we started in Lukla on june 3 and completed the trek to base camp on june 11th. we received excellent support from Bishnu who planned and organized the trip for us , and our guide and the porters, who were committed to our safety and success and for our meaningful journey in every respect. all requests from us were honored and every opportunity was taken to make this a terrific memory for us all.

Our guide Chabbi always explained the natural wonders along the way, looked out for us like a hawk on potentially dangerous sections of the trail, explained the history and culture and way of life in the Nepali highland areas, and helped us meet Nepali people along the way to brighten and intensify our positive experience. chabbi knew (before I even did) when I was going to stumble and he was always there to help me. he also at times carried my pack for potentially treacherous downhill sections. he also always knew the little shortcuts and also was a respected leader for the porters. ask your doctor, but I recommend taking Diamox because it is sustained high altitude !

Nature Trail provided a good service and experience to us during the entire trip (not just the trekking part). When we arrived in Kathmandu (we take different flight, the arrival time for us is different but they could still manage it), a friendly, English speaking city guide who was waiting outside the airport, lead us to the nice hotel and explain the information for the trekking. We plan to complete the trekking within 7 days, but due to luggage issue, we needed to spend extra day in the city. Although our schedule is tight, we suggested to walk more on the first few days and the trekking guide in Pokhara told us that he could manage it. Then we started our trek!

The package we bought includes all meal and hotels (lodges) in the mountain and the porter and guide were welling to help us during the trek. Finally we completed the trek within 6 days (Better to spend more time as 6 days is tough) ! The view at the Annapurna base camp is astonishing and it is worth seeing it.

Overall, the experience and service is excellent.

We signed up for the 5 days skytrek as this itinerary matched our days of travel well. The handling of the booking was done professionally by Bishnu at the office in Thamel in Kathmandu. Throughout, Bishnu was very personal and helped us customize our trip , for example pre ordering a surprise cake for our partner whose birthday we were celebrating. Minute details of the whole package were clearly discussed by Bishnu so we knew what we signed up for.

On the day of the trek, our guide and porter showed up on time and greeted us warmly. We drove out of town to Bijayapur, our trek entry point . We enjoyed a fairly easy hike of about 3 hours until we reached Kalikasthan, a remotely located village on the hilltop. The backdrop was just breathtaking. Thankfully a clear sky enabled us to take in the view on Begans lake surrounded by the untouched nepale scenery. This trek was designed to take your breath away , literally speaking ! We got off the beaten track and immersed into the untouched Nepalese nature.

Overall we were ectasic about having booked our precious birthday holidays with allnepal! The friendliness & professionalism of staff made it all worthwhile

Hi Bishnu,
First of all, Sivan and I would like to say a tremendous thank you for all of the support in making our visit to Nepal a tremendous success. We had an absolutely amazing time, our guides and your staff were all first rate; and the hotels and logistics all went incredibly smoothly. We were only sorry that we could not arrange to spend some time with you and visit the Children’s Centre, I guess it will have to wait for our next visit (which we both said must happen as soon as possible!)

The day after our trek, I met a lady called Katherine who told me she’s interested in doing a similar kind of trek, so I offered to put the two of you in touch (cc’d).

Thank you very much.

Hello Bishnu…Namaste!

It’s been a few days since I got back from the Himalayas….what a great trip!! And I want to thank you again for all the planning and the successful hike. Druba and Buddha were great companions, always attending well to my needs and a very friendly and comfortable to be with. Please thank them for me again, everyone was so nice from day one of my Kathmandu tour. I couldn’t ask for a better agency. I wish we had met but I understand how busy it can get for you and glad to hear from Dependra that everyone I met there were back doing their guiding (and trekking)…good to be working. Please say hello to them for me. I will not hesitate to recommend Nature, Trails and Travels…Thanks again!!
Take care and I wish you only the best!!

Best regards,

My girlfriend and I had 3 weeks in Nepal and we worked with Bishnu at Nature Trail Trekking. We found him and his company to be OUTSTANDING.
We emailed about 5 guiding companies in Nepal for help, and they ranged from very expensive to dirt cheap, detailed to vague and very friendly to arrogant & pompous. We chose Nature Trail trekking because Nature Trails were very detailed and very friendly in all the emails.. It is difficult to have personality come through within emails, especially if the English is off a bit, but Bishnu’s willingness to help and kindness came through as obvious. As soon as I read his response to my email, it was set in our minds, we planned to work with Nature Trail Trekking.

We booked the Pokhara-Gorapani-Pokhara trek for 7 days. We had one porter and a guide (named: KP). KP was great, he secured all the best rooms for us upon our arrival to a teahouse and helped with the cleaner places to eat. He was also able to tell us about Nepalese folklore, the areas around us, and he knew a lot about the nature of Nepal…. great to hear about and learn.

Nature Trails also booked our arrangements into Tibet. They helped us tremendously with the odd rules and the Do’s and Don’ts.

The majority of the help that we received from Bishnu and Nature Trails wasn’t from what we actually booked and paid for with them, it was mostly their kindness, recommendations and generosity… which of course you cannot buy.

Have a wonderful trip!!

We had 5 days trekking, 3 days Chitwan National park and 2 days rafting and the rest of the days were stayed in Kathmandu.I was most impressed the trekking and rafting. Our trekking guide “Bharat” really a nice guy. He was gentle and considerate. So don’t need to worry though you are not good at trekking. He was reliable and he can catch you tight if you fall down.(Ha, Ha,).

Moreover, the porters and guide were also good at dancing. We have an enjoyable time in the lastnight of trekking. So thanks again for the team of our trekking. I really have a good memory!
