Highly recommended! Hiked to BC, followed by an epic 3-High-Passes trek. This was the third time I travelled with the Himalayan Trails team. Mads, the backoffice team, guides (Tendu) and porters always go above and beyond to make this it memorable experience! This time - despite adverse weather conditions - (we've lost 4 days at the beginning of the trip) they somehow managed to get us to the end without missing out on anything. I will be back, for sure!

Himalayan Trails went above and beyond to make our trip seamless and memorable. Their attention to detail, friendly service, and passion for Nepal set them apart. When a natural disaster meant amendments to our trek were required, they ensured we were safe and still got to see the highlights of the amazing Himalayas. Their staff are very experienced and so very friendly. I highly recommend Himalayan Trails to anyone seeking an extraordinary and unforgettable travel experience in Nepal.
