                        A trip of a lifetime

                        My partner and I did Annapurna Base Camp trek with Nepal Trekking Planner. From the moment we stepped out of Katmandu airport we felt welcomed and well looked after.

                        For our trek we were guided by Binod, with Thaman as second guide. Binod and Thaman were, above all, the most wonderful people to spend 10 days with. They were kind, positive and made us feel so safe and looked after throughout the trek. We loved spending time with them, whether it be chatting on the walk or playing games in the evening. I feel we were truly blessed to have them.

                        The trek was beautiful, the tea houses exceeded all expectations, and the food was exceptional from start to finish.

                        Thank you, Nepal Trekking Planner. We hope to come back again!
