Sonya and I (school friends from the UK) cannot rate this trekking company highly enough. They are a family business with Rabin at the helm. They come from a small village west of the Langtang Valley and are very experienced. Rabin was so responsive and helpful, answering all our questions. He makes sure that you are well cared for throughout your trip.

Our guide was Veer (Rabin’s nephew). He was the kindest, most respectful gentleman, I have had the pleasure of knowing. He always had a big smile and looked after our every need.

Our porter was Michael (Veer’s cousin). The relationship between them was lovely. Michael is just 18 and on a break from high school. His ambition is to be a guide and he will make an excellent one.

The trek was beautiful. Starting in the forests and then opening up on the second day to reveal the expansive valley and snow-capped mountains. The treks are tough but rewarding. Don’t come unprepared. You should be ready to walk multiple days up and down slopes, some are rocky and can be slippery. But around every corner, there is a view to die for.

We climbed Tsergo Ri. It was tough over 4500 m altitude but the boys encouraged us to keep going slowly slowly. Many trekkers say the views from this mountain are the best they have seen in multiple trips to Nepal. As this was our first, we can’t compare. But it was amazing.

Also, be prepared for extremes in the accommodation. We stayed in a couple of lovely hotels/ guest houses. The first and last night in the Garden Inn was great. But the best was night 3 at Tip Top. At Lama Hotel on Days 2 and 6, it was basic but you can pay for a hot shower in an outside shack. Also, be prepared for any weather. We were lucky, but I’m sure it could be cold and wet.

If I were to recommend one thing, it is to book your trip with Rabin. And if possible, book Veer as your guide.
