I did the Three Passes + EBC trek with Nepal Trekking Planner and it was EPIC. I did it solo with my guide (Sonam) and porter (Umis), and I couldn’t have asked for a better team. Sonam is super kind and taught me a ton about the culture, religion, and beliefs. I won’t share too much about his personal life, but let’s say he seemed extra knowledgeable compared to other guides. He was also a great photographer, which was handy since I did it solo without a group. Umis was a powerhouse and always arrived before me and had my stuff waiting in my room. The entire experience went off without a hitch from the second I arrived at the airport to the moment I left. I was arriving from a long vacation in hot weather, so they helped me get all the gear I needed and included a sleeping bag, warm puffy jacket, trekking poles, and a duffel bag in the price, which was nice. It was my birthday during the trek, and Sonam organized one of the teahouses to bake a mini cake, and Umis played a song on the guitar for me. Such a nice experience! Finally, to help recover from my trek when I got back to Kathmandu , they gave me another special surprise that I wasn’t expecting…but I won’t ruin the surprise for you ;) Overall, I’d highly recommend doing your hike with Nepal Trekking Planner if you want a smooth experience and don’t want to have to worry about any planning.

Excellent trip, the guide and porter were really friendly and knowledgeable. We made some very successful adjustments to the original plan along the way. Highly recommendable.

Well run and personable tour. Met me at Kathmandu Airport with card and my name. Put flower necklace on me and took me to hotel. Next morning put me on a bus for 7 hour ride to Chitwan. Man from Aama Gardens Hotel met me there and took me to hotel. Excellent from Menu lunch and dinner ordered and served (drinks extra charge) .Three great meals next two days and breakfast on 4th day. Day two dugout canoe ride in am saw marsh mugger crocodile. One charged boat in defense of nest. Saw many birds and turtles. Afterward went on Jungle walk and saw wild bull elephant with history of attacking people and during many baby elephants and Gharial and mugger crocodiles and parrots. Afternoon was 4 hour jeep safari saw palm civet black faced languir, several Indian one horned rhinos, many pea fowl, storks etc. no tiger 🐅 Drat!! But many footprints, tons of axis deer one hog deer. Evening was fantastic local dance especially the magnificent “fire dance” near end. Next morning was a highlight riding elephant across rivers and walking right up (40 feet) on three rhinos unconcerned with us unlike bolting from jeep jeep safari. Mahout took us through thick brush trying to see a leopard or tiger no luck but came within five feet of big spotted deer buck. Would love to have full day elephant safari off the beaten path. Afternoon was spent at Chitwan natural history museum. Not the Smithsonian but plenty to see and learn about Chitwan. Btw Aama Garden hotel only five minute walk from A Chitwan gate. Wildlife Guide Kush walked with me back to park to see a few extra things right at dusk ( he was guide on bush walk and his twin brother on the jeep tour. Really knowledgeable (I’m retired wildlife biologist) so not kidding. Showed me a video of adult rhino walking down street past Aama Garden hotel the day before I arrived. These guys were good and jungle walk is not without some risk but really neat being on the ground with elephants rhinos and tigers. Not the same as woods walk in Pennsylvania. Ask for Kush and his brother if you book this tour. Trekking Planner headman Dipak was attentive to all details. The only wrinkle in whole multifaceted adventure was being a little late in retrieving me from elephant safari back to hotel but I enjoyed myself looking around waiting so no big deal at all as I saw the mahouts skillfully handling their beasts. Next morning made to order breakfast and seven hour ride in great bus with onboard WiFi for return seven hours to Kathmandu where I was met and raked back to hotel.

The trip was amazing! First if all it is very well-organsied, from airport pick up, to the trekking itinerary! The guide (Binod) and porter (Anis) they arranged, were amazing! They are everything you need for the trip! Binod as my trekking guide, has all the knowledge about the mountains, culture, and also a fun guy to talk to! He is super reliable, friendly, caring and has made my trekking so much easier! To be honest, I wouldn't made it to ABC without them!
I am travelling solo, and it was my first time trekking! I thought it could be a bit boring, but these guys, just made the trek so much fun! He is also a good photographer🤭! Definitely an experience I will never forget, and please if you're planning a trekking to Nepal, look for them!

I had wonderful trek to Annapurna Base Camp with Treckking Planner. Both guide and porter were friendly and everything was organised professionally.

Look no more stop your search you have found the company that you need to hire to have the trip of your life as their mantra says. My wife and I are not new to 8 to 10 + days of trekking the mountains in the world. The Everest Base Camp has been in our list of mountains for over five years. We had to postpone it a couple of times due to Covid. when I started my research of trekking planning company I came across the Trekking planner and met Mr. Dipak Over the phone and text. I found him to be straight shooter with no funny games played answering my questions. He set up the Trekking plan the way we requested and gave us input from his 15+ years of doing this job. He set us up with the best guide in our opinion, and our experience, Mr. Dibash and two grade porters, Suman, and Ranjan. Our guide, Dibash was very experienced very informative and walked us through every day plan and along the way, showed us and explain to us what we were looking at with names and history.
Book your next trip of your lifetime with the Trekking planner you won’t regret it.

I had an amazing experience. The guide and porter, Binod and Thoman were thoughtful, knowledgeable helpful and good humoured the whole way.
The accommodation was basic, warm and comfortable.
The food was really good. There was a variety of fruits, vegetables, rice, lentils, porridge, eggs, just about anything you would want.
The scenery was magnificent, mountains, hills, and terraced farms. We walked through freshly fallen snow.
There were 1000s of steps that I struggled to climb, I was so proud to reach the top.

A great trip! You will experience every type of weather at every altitude in the majestic Himalayas. Thanks a lot and stay safe Avi (the best guide I've ever met) and porters!
