Dipak and his team made sure I had an incredible time and took the stress out of all the planning!! I arrived in Nepal with no plans and they organized the Poon Hill/Ghorepani trek for me with no hassles and organized other activities too. Dipak answered every question and ensured I was always satisfied. I had a homestay with his family who were also justas caring and genuine as he was! I would highly recommend this company, you won’t find better people that are more willing to please!
