Amazing Trekking Tour at Nepal Upper Mustang

Nepal is new to us and we joined the 2 weeks trekking tour to explore the exotic Upper Mustang.
🏔Mountains never let you down haha
With our experienced trekking guide Ashok and the team, we were totally care free during the trip.
We simply enjoyed the spectacular view during the trek, connected with the nature and gave me good vibes.
The assistant guide Buddhiman took nice photos for us too.
This team even helped my friends to surprise me with a very nice birthday cake on my day.
Besides, we’ve joined the day tour at Lo-manthang, had so much funs at the Jhong Cave and learnt a lot on Nepal’s history and religions during the day tour in Kathmandu.
I really appreciated their great efforts and highly recommended this company for you guys.

Once in a lifetime experience to see Everest and be in the Himalayas

Wonderful tour! Such an incredible experience to see Everest, and the Himalayas are unexplainably vast - after you clear one mountain range, there is another and another. The views of the other closer and more visible mountains were arguably the best parts.

The helicopter ride was a thrill in itself, and you rotate seats which is nice. There’s enough time at multiple stops to feel like you’ve gotten a complete experience.

We had clear-ish weather which was great; you can’t control the weather and some days you can’t see Everest in the clouds, so I felt very fortunate.

Himalayan recreation also went above and beyond in two ways for me — (1) changed dates for me with short notice to accommodate my changing itinerary, and (2) picked up a trekking permit from another agency that I needed for Poon Hill, so that I could make a 3 hour earlier flight and not leave the airport.

Overall, would highly recommend the trip to anyone who doesn’t have the time to do the 12 day EBC trek, and would recommend the operator!

Off the beaten track- AMAZING

When I first got in touch with Bishnu I told him that my mother and I were looking for a trek that was moderate length, minimal people and cultural. It had been my dream to go trekking in Nepal since I was a little kid I was putting a lot of faith in Bishnu considering it was my "trip of a lifetime". What he delivered us FAR exceeded anything id ever imagined.

Given what we were looking for, Bishnu presented us with the Nar Phu Valley trek itineray he had made. After some brief independant research we decided it looked pretty good so we signed up.

From even before we got there, Bishnu had everything taken care of. He had packing lists sent to us. Updates on trail and weather conditions ahead of time. Once we arrived Hotel, food, even going through our gear with us to make sure we had it all sorted.

The trek:
I wont be able to adequately convey how amazing a trek the Nar Phu Valley was in a few words. To summarize it in a sentence or two though; we hiked through just about every terrain Nepal has to offer - allowing us to really appreciate the depth the country has to offer in culture and environment. Simple but comfortable tea houses, only seeing a handful of other trekkers the full 9 days on the trail meant the tea houses welcomed us to cozy up beside the kitchen fire to eat dinner while they went about their daily routine. The farther we got into the Himalayas the more beautiful snow-capped mountains we encountered- really solidifying to us that this trek has everything we could ask for.

As much as the actual trek itself was amazing, having Bishnu with us- SO knowledgeable and engaged in mountain life- made the trip what it was. So many laughs were shared and interesting conversations had while we were trekking that I never once considered listening to my ear phones while walking 6-8 hours for 9 straight days. (which, as a millennial in 2019 means, means a lot)

The Nar Phu valley trek dosen't boast the iconic mountain ranges places like Everest do but when you haven't run into another traveller in 4 days and you're sitting beside a fire watching the sun come up over a snow capped peak, drinking a cup of warm masala tea listening to a munk saying prayers in the distance- what more could you ask for?

Pros/ Highlights: Day spent in Phu, staying at monastary, good footing on trails

Cons: Long days hiking- We loved this and enjoyed the challenge but a reasonable level of fitness is required to enjoy it I believe.

P.S. Don't eat the dried apples you can buy in some of the villages (Food poisoning at 4000m elevation is THE WORST)- thankfully Bishnu made sure I was taken good care of until I was better, checking my oxygenation on a SPO2 monitor regularly and getting some calories into me so I was able to continue the trek happily!

It was one of my best trip !

Poon hill trekking - AMAZING Views and overall experience

Poon Hill Trekking was such a beautiful and rewarding 5 day trek! I highly recommend it to anyone with a decent level of fitness, although Day 2 was quite tough. My personal favorite day was day 3 because it was much more scenic and got a chance to encountered with high Himalaya from top of Pool hill 3210m with sunrise above the mountains but early morning hike to poon hill from Ghorepani (2860m) made us little tired but our guide encouraged us to walk another 4h more to Tada Pani to see another views of Annapurna and we all were ready to not miss that.. We got amazing views from all the journey but we were not very fit since it was our first trek in life.
The breathtaking views along the way are incomparable. I can say Nepal is a land of natural beauty but kathmandu is noisy but many things to see, we went with the trekking tour company Himalayan Recreation and a blast!

Nice local guys finished nice trip!

Our vietnamese tourguide got acute mountain sickness on Namche 3440m. We must try ourselves with the local tourguide "Varat" & the other porters. It was not easy to go to the EBC and then Cholapass, Gokyo lake... But all the local guys made us happy. We done our trip with so many memories on Himalaya. Many thanks to Dibo Nepal, to this guy Varat & the other porters! We will miss you all!

6 days Pokahara and a trek to Poon Hill

I booked a package from Kathmandu to Pokhara and a trekk for 5 days .
The team took care of me from the moment that i landed until i took off back home .
It was well planned and organized and i felt that there is always someone around that will show me the next step

Highly recommended !!

Everest base camp heli tour

It happened to be a wonderful short trip to Everest Base Camp. We the group of five along with our tour guide Jamuna flew towards Lukla. After refueling we landed straight at Kalapatthar.
The aerial view of the mountainous ranges was very much astonishing. Our American Pilot briefed us about the tour and even told about the stories of his several heli tours. The picturesque view of Everest along with Lhotse, Makalu,
Ama Dablam took our breathe away. We spent about 20 mins there enjoying the majestic view and then headed towards Everest View Hotel. After lunch with heavenly scene of the snow capped mountains, the hotel owner gave us farewell and we headed back to the international airport.
Overall, the whole trip was something I would like to call once in a lifetime experience. Our tour guide was very generous and helped us take beautiful photographs. We also had a city sight seeing tour that evening and a grand celebration at our hotel. Without Himalayan Recreation,
it wouldn't be so amazing!
