In April 2011, we have booked a tour package to Tibet and Nepal with Babu Karki from Adventure Great Himalaya. We have found his contact from Facebook after doing some random searching online for tour agents. It was a risk that we had to take when booking from a foreign agent from our country, Singapore. Fortunately, it turned out to be a reliable agent and the email exchanges were prompt and informative. Babu has even made phone calls from Nepal to Singapore just to clarify our enquires. Babu was patient to help us to customize an itinerary according to our needs, and he even quoted us a private tour for the overall trip at an affordable price. The cost of the tour package was way cheaper as compared to what the Singapore agents were offering.
We did an overland trip from Tibet to Nepal from 16 April to 3 May 2011. The tour service provided by our Tibetan tour guide (Kalsang) and driver (Choemphel) are greatly commendable, they are very hospitable and sincere, and provided us with more than enough information. I would recommend them to those who are intending to travel in Tibet. And also not forgetting, the porters and trekking guide, Raj, who led us during our Annapurna Poonhill Trek. He is a wonderful guy who kept motivating us to move on during the trek.
This is definitely the most enjoyable and unforgettable trip till date! Thanks to my travel companions and the good tour service that Adventure Great Himalaya has provided. I will be glad to do the Everest Base Camp and Annapurna Base Camp Trek if time allows, and will definitely look for Babu again!
