We trekked to Annapurna Circuit with Bibek as our guide. He was very easygoing, funny, and knew very well about the trail we walked. So when something unexpected happened like bad weather, he could adjust our plan to make sure our safety but still had a great experience.
I would recommend Bibek if you are planning to trek in Nepal.
Both of my trips to Nepal were amazing thanks to this company. I hired Bibek both times to handle everything regarding trekking to Everest Base Camp and the Annapurna Circuit. Bibek met me at the airport to welcome me to Nepal and made sure I had some amazing memories while I Nepal. He makes sure you feel safe, well fed, and confident throughout the trip.
Bibek was the best guide I could ever imagine. He seemed to know every inch of the trail around Annapurna and also seemed to know everyone on the route. SO kind and thoughtful, and of course, a strong hiker and guide. He was a wonderful guide, but even better, he helped out my ex-wife when she had an unexpected diversion to Kathmandu. Bibek took her under his wing and set up lodging and helped negotiate a nasty visa problem. It all worked out in the end thanks to Bibek’s help. I wil definitely trek with him again.
