Would very much like to sincerely recommend A Nepal trek company and a best manager named Mr. Y.B. Pant /Rajendra. This is my third trip to Nepal and took a service with well known guide Mr. Rajendra. We were very proud because he has been starting his a nice operation company with almost nearly 20 years experience of his guiding with some thousands of tourists from world. He provides us a good guide and a porter. Guide[Surya] was a real discovery! we took 17 days trek to “Throng-la pass 5416m” or known as “Annapurna circuit”. He is one of the most knowledgeable guide with friendly nature and of-course, me very strong impression by his great service. So, this year, I decided to do again something genuine with this Trekking company, Although, if you are planning a trip to Nepal, please do not miss your chance to observe the best respectful business way of life and get life-time memory from Nepal. No, many others agency will be able to find a proper guide on field. True they were became a real friend of mine for long & long…….

Estimado y querido Rajendra,
el viaje que nos organizaste por Nepal fue simplemente espectacular. Tu organización fue perfecta, tanto de los hoteles como en los pueblos que fuimos parando durante la vuelta al Annapurna. Tu conocimiento del lugar nos facilitó mucho las cosas, tu asesoramiento con respecto a la altura, que hizo que ninguno del grupo tuviera problemas. Tu calidez y simpatía hizo que dejáramos a un verdadero amigo en Nepal.
Todos tenemos ganas de volver, porque sabemos en quién confiar y conociendo ahora la maravilla que es tu país y sugente.
Otra vez muchas gracias por todo este evento inolvidable para nosotros.
Abrazo, Agustín.
