Himalayan Treks Reviews 

I went in October of 2017 and it was a great experience for me. Everything was organized in detail. I would travel with them again and recommend this mixed trip, Trek and Master mind. It will change your life!

I had only done a couple of treks before I travelled with Himalayan Treks to Nepal, so wasn’t sure what to expect. The Himalayan Treks’ experience was extraordinary, and it will be certainly be a trip I will never forget.
The trip was meticulously planned. We had a full and exciting schedule. What we hadn’t accounted for was for the BA checking desk sending our luggage to the wrong destination. Our luggage was sent to India rather than Nepal. Once we got to Kathmandu it was clear no luggage had arrived. When we explained the situation at the airport, we were reassured that our luggage would arrive in the next 2 days ready for our early departure to Pokara for the start of our actual trek.
Obviously we informed Himalayan Trek as soon as we were picked up from the airport of the little issue of us not having any luggage (no rucksacks, no down jackets, no sleeping bags, no water bottles, zero). Luckily our trekking boots where in our hand luggage. Eva, from Himalayan Treks, spoke to the airport authorities and again we were reassured our luggage would arrive in time, so we might as well enjoy the city for a couple of days. Eva had organised 2 easy days exploring Kathmandu, so we could absorb the atmosphere, get acclimatised and discover the gems the city has to offer.
We did relish the city and kept checking with the airport for updates. Unfortunately it did become clear, as the days went by, that our luggage was not going to arrive in time. So Eva took us emergency shopping to get from basics (underwear, toothpaste, etc.) to appropriate trekking gear (down jackets, sleeping bags and more). This in itself was an amusing experience if a bit stressful.
Once the trek itself started, everything went like clockwork. We discovered picturesque little villages, friendly and interesting villagers and children going to school along the way, and amazing and breath-taking landscapes. On the human side, we got to socialise with both the guide and the porters and learn their stories. We also had dinner with them and the locals in a few occasions and were lucky enough to be invited to play cards and take part in their singing, drinking and dancing. We were humbled and honoured by this experience.
In our small group there were members with different levels of fitness. Eva made sure the trek was organised to accommodate us all and to take into account the altitude changes. No one felt left out with regards to ability levels and there were no altitude related issues. For those of us who had a bit more energy left at the end of the trekking day, Eva had a few walks/activities on the side that we could do once we got the base camp.
The accommodation was basic along the way. The more you climbed the more basic it got. Nevertheless, it had everything that was needed and expect from a trek, and the most important thing, the people running the accommodations were locals and very grateful for your support of their community.
This was not a luxurious holiday, but one choreographed by Eva to have an impact on your soul and to change your appreciation of life in ways you would not expect.
If you were interested to hear, our luggage was waiting for us at Kathmandu airport by the time we got back from the trek, so we went back home with an unforgettable experience, a warmth in our hearts that you could only get by visiting places like Nepal, and double the luggage.
All in all, if you’re thinking of going to Nepal I would whole heartedly recommend Himalayan Treks.

Himalayan Trek offers truly personal services on unforgettable trip experiences. These folks are professional and passionate on what they’re doing. After all we became real friends. My life is enriched now with precious memories and moments.
