My daughter Maddie and I met in Kathmandu to do the Poon Hill Trek and explore Nepal. We had the most magical time. Babu and his team at Adventure Great Himalaya Treks were fabulous. Our guide Summer, was an excellent guide and Gokul our porter was of great support – a first class team. They were such great company for us. We laughed a lot, chatted a lot and they looked after us perfectly. I was a bit nervous about the logistics, but I needn’t have been. The whole AGH team ensured everything ran smoothly and couldn’t have been more helpful, not only for the trekking but helping us with other arrangements whilst we were there. It has been a life changing experience for me and made me want to do more ‘exploring’

My family and I (wife and daughters aged 10 and 8) did the 4 day Poon Hill trek. It was a really good experience. Babu and his team organised everything for the trek for us – guide, porters, teahouses to stay in. The package also included all our meals and they even lent us a sleeping bag and extra duffel bag to carry things.

The price was fairly standard for this kind of trip, as was the accommodation (although our guide went out of his way to get us the best rooms at every place).

The reason for the 5/5 rating was the outstanding guide, Dinesh and the two helpful porters. Dinesh was knowledgeable, thoughtful and looked after all of us wonderfully (in particular my youngest daughter). He even carried my daughter up the last part of Poon Hill when we did our sunrise trek there. Rajesh and Raj, our porters were similarly fantastic at helping us.

Huge thanks to all the team and to Babu, who was responsive and helpful throughout our time making arrangements.

This is my first attempt at trekking In Nepal and being a city person by nature, I am fortunate to engage the services from Mr. Babu Karki who is the Managing Director of Adventure Great Himalaya. Throughout the five months prior to my trip in November, Mr. Babu has been responsive to my queries, all the while reassuring me that the Ghorepani-Poonhill trek is doable for me.

I believe Mr. Babu has sent me his best guide, Santosh, to make my trip more manageable and enjoyable. I am thankful to have a responsible and patient guide as he is. I am Santosh’s new record as the slowest trekker in all his seven years as a guide. So it goes to show how bad I am at trekking and how patient he was.

My services from Mr. Babu also include a private car service from Kathmandu to Pokhara and return. Again, I am pleased to have a responsible and reliable driver. The stories on “terrible” road conditions did not really apply to me because Naba drove carefully to get me safely from Kathmandu to Pokhara and back. I also made a last minute decision to engage Naba, through Mr. Babu, as my driver for a day instead of going through the hassle of using multiple cab drivers to visit places of interests in Kathmandu city.

Last but not least, Mr. Babu gave me a good first impression. A smart businessman he is, Mr. Babu also genuinely displays care and concern on the well-being of all his clients.

I had been trekking with Babu for three times in Nepal from 1999 to 2004. I really appreciated his service.He was responsible and provided professional advice for usin the journey. Besides,he was so thoughtful in taking care of us.I felt secure in the journey because he had tried his best to protect us all the time.During the journey, we always laughed because he was so humorous. During the second journey, I was very impressed because I could experience the living of the village people. By the help of Babu, we communicated with the village people.They were so friendly and sincere. We could learn more about the custom in Nepal from him. Babu is so experienced in trekking, I believe he can provide good service for you in the journey.

I didn’t have many days so I did the Poon Hill trekking. Six days of amazing experiences going up and down in the mountains. My guide, Binay, was a very nice person and we had a great travel together, I appreciate him a lot! I was a bit fast-walking so we did a longer tour and I was able to visit more places than expected. So the improvisation of Binay was excellent. Also the organization of the trekking was very easy with Babu, he took all my considerations into account and gave me very good advise. I really recommend Adventure Great Himalaya if you’re planning a travel in Nepal!!! I was amazed by the landscape and the people from this country!! Willing to go back soon!
