Comments: "amazing company, great with kids!"
We did a 5 night/6 day trek with Adventure Treks Nepal to Ghorepani/Poon Hill with our 4 and 7 year olds. I had originally emailed about 20 various trekking companies trying to find the best fit for our family (price/route/child friendly etc) and while Adventure Treks were one of the first to respond I held off booking anything until I had heard back from all the companies.
In the end I went back to Adventure Trek Nepals for several reasons; Gyan was really efficient at communicating, he answered ALL my many questions and was one of the few companies that I emailed that actually listened to my request and tailoring a trek that suited our family.
Everything was easy and taken care of and once we arrived in Nepal Gyan met with us at our hotel and again the following day to go over any last minute questions we had as well as explain what to expect. The second meeting we also had the opportunity to meet with our guide which was great, whom we also meet up with again the night prior to our trek.
Included in our package was the guide and 2 porters to carry our belongings and we hired an extra porter to help carry our youngest. All 4 were fantastic! The guide and 1 porter spoke great English so communicating was super easy and the other 2 porters while we couldn't converse as easily were very friendly and kind and even helped carry our oldest at times.
Throughout the week my youngest who is immensely shy really warmed up to her porter and talks about him daily since our return!
We loved all the accommodations and I felt like we always got the best room in the house which I can only attribute to our guide/company and the relationships they have formed with the teahouses from many years of trekking.
The tea houses had great food and again, thanks to our guide who would place orders in advance we would always have our meals at times we requested - definitely great when you are traveling with children.
Upon our return back to Kathmandu we ended up booking a driver through Adventure Treks to take us around Kathmandu for the day and again everything about the process was seamless.
If you are looking for a reliable, efficient, cost effective and family friendly trekking company in Nepal I highly recommend Adventure Treks Nepal!
We can't wait to return to Nepal in the future and already know we will be making contact with Gyan when we do!

Comments: Everything was organised perfectly by the Adventure Treks Nepal, unfortunately for us the weather was against us and we got snowed in. Ramesh our guide was fabulous as was our porter Pradig.
We will be back to trek in Nepal again and we will ask Gyan at Adventure Trek Nepal to help us again.
Highly recommend that you enlist Gyan expertise to plan and implement your adventure in Nepal

Comments: Having recently returned from a 9 month trip across Asia and Africa, top of the to do list on getting home was writing a review for Gyan and his wonderful team at Adventure Treks Nepal. My wife and I had a wonderful experience trekking with Khim, an extremely knowledgable and entertaining guide and Pemba, a very kind and strong porter! From planning our Annapurna Circuit Trek with Gyan over email (only a week before we started) to being met by him at our hotel, being driven to the start of our trek and saying goodbye to Khim and Pemba in Pokhara everything ran incredibly smoothly and we had an amazing time. I can thoroughly recommend this company to help organise and plan your trek, they are experienced, great at communicating and very reasonably priced. We will back one day!

Comments: Our experience treking to Everest with adventure treks Nepal was nothing short of amazing everything was as promised at a fraction of the price of the western based firms and would happily recommend.
Comments: "Poon Hill trek - Amazing trek"
It was our first trek in Nepal and it was really great ! Our guide was really professionnal, friendly and full of answers to our many questions. He always tried to find the best options for us and usually succeed ! He and the porter were always smiling and willing to help.
When preparing our trip, the agency was really quick to answer our e-mails and it was easy to arrange everything before flying to Katmandou.
If we come back to Nepal, we will definitly trek with that agency again !

"Perfect from the first moment"
I've been planing my trekking to the EBC for several months. From the first email Gyan has been a really nice person, solving all our questions and planing all we have asked for.
We'll star or visit to Katmandu in a few days and he has done everything for us so we just have to enjoy our trip.
Thanks Gyan!! See you soon!!

"After visit Nepal"
"Could not be better!"
Why this is the best travel agency I've ever experienced:
I've done 18 days trek to EBC and Gokyo Ri in March with my brother.
- For the first moment Gyan planned everything, solved all my questions and did all so easy.
- Any bad surprise during my trip, just well done work.
- When you are in the mountains you want an experienced guide who can solve any possible problem, and ours: Lalit (who I strongly recommend to ask to go with him) had 25 years of it and was the most respected by all the others guides, always smiling and taking care of all yours need.
- Also the porter was really kind and a happy person, the same as the driver in Kathmandu who make us feel safe in that crazy roads. Gyanendra, our guide of Kathmandu took us to all the mains points of the city in two days and we enjoy it a lot.
- Gyan was looking for our needs and planning what we would like to do after the trek in Nepal, such a good person and with a great team!!!
- I did lot of research from home of many many trekking companies and thats the one I choose, so if you want to save time, money and have the perfect trip don't hesitate to contact Gyan.
Thanks for all my friend!!

Comments: "Quintessential Nepal Experience"
Our family has always traveled independently, but for our trip to Nepal, I made the decision to leave the ground arrangements to Adventure Treks Nepal... And in hindsight, we couldn't have managed otherwise!
Even before the trip, I had months and months of queries and discussions with Mr Gyan Karki (the boss), and he amazed me with his prompt email replies (sometimes within minutes!), and willingness to tweak our itinerary to cater to our preferences. From pick-up to send-off, we felt well taken care of.
We chose a combination of rafting, trekking and jungle safari - which was a pretty good balance of activities during our two weeks there.
The accommodations chosen by the company were spot on - the one in Kathmandu for its super prime yet quiet location, and the one in Pokhara was a delightful haven with a lovely garden which we enjoyed many breakfasts!
Our key person - the ever calm and positive guide Bhuwan Karki ("Namaste Bhuwan... Miss dhal bat so much!")- was always ready to support and answer every question with an encyclopedic depth of knowledge about the people, culture, flora and fauna that we encountered. He had a tremendous rapport with all the people that we dealt with, from the teahouse owners to the drivers etc.
Even more importantly, when our kids suffered some tummy bugs during the trek, he patiently and wisely used his experience to enable us to complete the trek successfully....I guess when things go wrong in a foreign country is when you see the benefit of having good local knowledge and support.
In summary: You are going to have a good time in Nepal... and ATN will make it great!
