We have just finished 2 treks with Hikers Himalaya during our time in Nepal – Poon Hill and Mardi Himal, then Langtang Valley. Bibek assisted with organising the treks ahead of time and was always quick and helpful with communication. Padam was our brilliant guide on the trails and we cannot thank him enough. He was always incredibly knowledgeable about the local areas we visited and managed every aspect of the treks perfectly. We felt in such a safe pair of hands with Padam’s years of experience and his lovely kind approach. We would highly recommend Bibek and Padam for trekking in Nepal and hope to return again soon!
