Fantastic, unbelievable, incredible and every thing else you can come up with. being from Arizona and the girls from Chicago we expected a lot and got it. So the entire experience was great from the first call to Experience The Himalayas. David Cassidy called me right back and fielded a lot of my questions. The trek operator Bijey Neupane, who was very attentive with me and both the girls, he met us at the air port set us up in a very nice hotel and took us out to dinner. Bijay and our guide Kumar Gautam who was the best, worked very well together to give us the very best private trek we could ask for. We grew very fond of Kumar and his superb knowledge of the region I know more about Buddhism and Hinduism faiths now then I ever did. I felt like Kumar was a famous guy he knew the teahouse house owners and we were in the same tea houses that the big western out fits were using. Why any one would go with a western company I don't know, so much more expensive for what you get. The Girls and I wanted a local guide and we got the best. Nepal needs our funding right now and using a local guide is the best way to go. I recommend this adventure to anyone. Hats off to Experience The Himalayas thank you for a trip of a life time. Oh one more thing stay a couple of days in Kathmandu after the trek you will not regret it.
