I would like to thank Trekking Planner for our trip to Nepal. Unfortunately it contemporized with the terrible circumstances in Nepal but nevertheless we did not experience any lack of service from our travel agent: everything went as it was planned according to our wishes. Especially I would like to notice that our guide brought to us fresh fruits for all the trekking, that was very nice. I can surely recommend Trekking Planner as a travel agent if you plan a trip to Nepal. God bless people of Nepal, they are going through a though period in their life.

Our first family trekking experience in Nepal was amazing and this is all thanks to Trekking Planer. During the trip planning stage, Dipak was great in giving us detailed discussions, professional and flexible in planning. He came to meet us at KTM airport at midnight, carefully checked out the things. Since we insisted in a night drive to Pokhara, he gave us a spacious van so that all of us could have a comfortable ride. He also called our guide every day to update the situations and give advises on the actual matters. We were a bit unlucky with the weather as a happened heavy snowing in Muktinath blocked to road from Jomsom and Kagbeni to there. Luckily, we were aware of that in early communications and could make a great change in the plan by replacing Kagbeni-Muktinath by the high route trek Kagbeni-Piling-Phalyak-Dhakarjhong-Lubra-Jomsom. Our guide Narayan is a brilliant guy. He is positive and optimistic but also professional and realistic in making plans for the trek. He not only helped us in organizing the trek in details, from hiring horse for our small kids and porters when necessary to finding the guest houses in remote areas when plan changed, but also took care of my kids. He became my son's best friend during the trip and my kids till now keep remembering him every day.

Back to the trek, we have two resting days in Pokhara before flying off to Jomsom. Highly recommend Begnas lake and Pokhara valley biew points such as Kalistasthan, Thularkot, Siddhipur. We took on the first trekking day the alternative route Jomsom to Marpha through Thini, Dumba lake and it was very beautiful. The hotel Sunrise in Marpha was great with 24h hot shower. Next day we discovered Marpha before taking bus and jeep to Kagbeni. Afternoon, we walked around Kagbeni old town. Marpha was really a jewel of the area and we wish to have more time there. On the third day, we took a day trip to Tiri village lying in the way to Upper Mustang. That was one of highlight days during our trip. Due to the heavy snowing conditions in Muktinath, we could not make it there as well as Jharkot and Jhong as planned. But the alternative route Kagbeni-Pilling-Phalyak-Dhakarjhong-Lubra-Jomsom was superb; the remote villages are very originated with Bon and some Dolpa features; the scene in the high route was the most beautiful among our whole trip. Lastly, we have two beautiful relaxing days in Kathmandu with visits to Patan and Bhartapur as well as Boudhanath temple.

To summarize, Trekking Planner was great. Diplak and Narayan were highly professional, flexible and also reasonable and affordable. We highly recommend their services, particularly for the family with young children.

We met Dipak at Kathmandu Guest house to organise a 4 day trip. He gave us a great price as a group of 4 with 1 guide. Banu (our guide) was fantastic, he was patient, kind and offered the best accommodation. Although a slight language barrier Banu made us feel as though we were in safe hands for our first trek. Thank you for an amazing experience!

Dipak of Trekking Planner organized our walk for us - a couple of South African women. He was fantastic - everything worked out so smoothly because of his wonderful attention to detail. He really assessed us well and organized things so that they suited us. Krishna, our porter-guide was excellent - happy to walk the extra many miles because we wanted to. Dipak was in touch with him for the 19 days of our walk and was ready to help if necessary. When the man at the bus stop in chaotic Kathmandu held up a sign with our name and shouldered the heavy rucksack to walk us back to the hotel at the end of the bus trip, I realized just how excellent Dipak's organization was. And the wonderful meal he treated us to, the prayer scarf and the final trip to the airport just made my trip so easy and satisfying. His advice was pertinent and well thought out at all times. We were really lucky, weather-wise, and had the most perfect trip ever. I highly recommend this organization to anyone who is planning a trip to Nepal. He will arrange things just as YOU would like them and then pay the most thoughtful attention to detail. Thanks Dipak and Krishna for making my dream trip of many years be so fantastic.

Absolutely fantastic trip. My dream come true - high mountains, fascinating culture, great trekking, incredible organization called Trekking Planner.

I have just returned from Nepal ! Dipak the owner of Trekking planner had arraigned our trek to EBC ! Sorry to say I came down with AMS ( Acute Mountain Sickness) Unable to to continue or return down the mountain. Dipak arraigned for the rescue helicopter and everything! I spent two days in the hospital with intravenous fluid replacement, for dehydration .He was by my side the entire first day and half the night . Finally we sent him home to his family. He picked me up at the hospital, transferred me to my hotel. Arraigned for new airline tickets ,and picked me up and took me to the airport to fly home ! I know of no company that the boss goes so far beyond to make sure his client is OK !

I had climbed to Base Camp years ago , with no problem ! Possibly my age was the cause this time? It's a great trek! It's a great Company! Richard

"great services,
if you are looking for a trekking in nepal, this agency is the one. great organization, professional, kind and welcome. thank you Deepak:)"

We have just returned from Nepal after an amazing adventure. Deepak and his team took care of everything from day one. All transfers, transport and permits were all organized perfectly and came together seamlessly. We did the Annapurna Base Camp trek with Narayan as our guide. He looked after us very well and still after the trek they still looked after us and checked up on us throughout our entire trip in Nepal. They went beyond and above expectations and I would recommend Trekking Planner to anyone I know going to Nepal. So all in all if you are not sure, take this review as 100% genuine and that this is the top trekking planner in Nepal.
