Joao Menaia" X 01 Pax (Portugal) Comments: Trekking in Nepal with Adventure Treks Nepal was, from day one, an experience I absolutely recommend!! Just after I landed in Kathmandu, Gyan was expecting me with his great Mercedes and a flower necklace! Since I was traveling alone and booked all my trip through the internet, I was a little suspicious of what I would get, but after this warm welcome and talking a bit with Gyan, I was sure I picked the right guys!

Gyan took me to the hotel and explained everything I needed to know. He then introduced to my guide, Gyanendra, with whom I would spend the rest of the week.

The trek itself, although short because I only had one week, was great!! Great views, great people!! That's the Himalaya you would get with any agency. However, not every agency has Gyanendra!!! He is definitely a great guide!! Since the beginning he was always very interested in explaining things about the places we were and he knows a lot about everything. A very professional guide. Since I was alone, we had the opportunity to talk along the trek and Gyanendra is a really good trek buddy. He his always willing to help and always worried if everything is ok. In our way back, we got stuck in Luckla because of the bad weather and Gyanendra did everything he could to make sure I was comfortable and made sure we were on the first flight to Kathmandu.

In the last day Gyanendra guided me to some sightseeing in Katmandu, which he did despite having some personal urgent problems to solve. He is really a good person, very humble and professional.

In the end, Gyan took me to the airport and I had the opportunity to confirm what a good person he also is. I'm sure Gyan has the right mindset to run this agency since he is always very interested in saying the truth to the customers and making sure everybody feels great.

If I ever come back to Nepal, I would definitely go with these guys!!! I wish them the best!

Namaste!

Comments: We flew to Kathmandu from New Dehli January 24, 2009 after we finished a two week Tour of India. Our Tour of India was somewhat disappointing primarily because we did notcare for our guide . Because we were the only ones on the tour with just a driver and guide, the two weeks at times, seemed never to be coming to an end. What a nice surprisewhen we were met at Kathmandu airport by the friendly smiling faces of Gyan Karki and his driver Icci. They treated us "old codgers" with respect and both had impeccablemanners always hastening to open the car doors for us.

We had four days in Kathmandu and surrounding towns that were just packed full of interesting sights. The Buddist Shrine Swyambhunath , Durbar square, were justsome of the many special places visited in Kathmandu. Patan City and Bhaktapur Cityoutside Kathmandu showed us another side to Nepal. One special interest for us wasour visit to the crematorium and the exciting flight over Mount Everest.

Gyan treated us like royalty even bringing us home to his house to meet his wonderful wife Anita and two sons. We had the wonderful comfort in driving around in a roomy well kept 1972 Mercedes car. Icci was a good safe driver.

We stayed at the Hotel Shanker which at one time was a palace. Our accommodation

was very comfortable and the meals appealing. It is a beautiful hotel with lovely grounds and swimming pool. Close enough to walk to shopping in our free time or take a rickshaw ride with the friendly driver who is always posted out by the gates to the Shanker hotel.

We would certainly recommend that if you are planning to visit Nepal you arrange a tour with Gyan through Aventure Treks Nepal (P.) Ltd. Our son-law referred him to us and our daughter is planned to book him for her trip to Nepal in October 09. You will have a memorable time.

We plan to return some day ,

Comments: Hi Gyan – just wanted to say a big thank you to you and your team at Adventure Treks Nepal – we had a fantastic time in Nepal and really appreciate how very smoothly everything went. Gyanedra was fabulous. We had so much fun and no hassles at all – even the Flight was cancelled in Pokhara was a non-event for us because you arranged transportation for us to Kathmandu. so we had a full day there and that was perfect – massages, shopping and lots of sitting around!

It's a crazy beautiful place and we loved every minute of being there – even the four trillion steps we climbed daily! Cheers and thanks again.

Comments: I have no idea how many times I have traveled with Adventure Treks Nepal.

Comments: We had a wonderfully organised trip to Nepal and ABC. In advance every effort was made to deal with all our requests, which made life much easier. Once in Nepal it was no problem to make changes we wanted to the program.

   * The City Tour of Kathmandu was very professional and just right.
   * We were driven everywhere always on time and good standard of driving
   * Gyan's language skills are very good
   *  The trek was super, well organised, good standard of lodges and food
   * The porters and guide were great and very funny at times
   * All staff were extremely helpful and this makes for a very relaxed and enjoyable trip
   * The little personal touches were especially well received compared to using a large trekking company

In particular I would recommend Mr Gyan Karki on his knowledge of the country, explanations of culture, and for his professionalism and reliability. No request or change to the schedule is too much and he will ensure you have a high quality trip

Thank you Gyan and Namaste, we hope to see you again.

Comments: Dear Gyan,

We thank you very much for the wonderful time we spent trekking and sightseeing in Nepal. Gyanendra and our porter, Songam, were always helpful, friendly and put our interests first. Gyanendra is a very experienced tour guide and manages the job like a true professional. It is no wonder that he is in high demand.

Gyan, we would also like to give you special thanks for taking great care of us and ensuring that we got home safe and sound when we had to leave early due to a family emergency. You went above and beyond the call of duty to help us in our time of need and for that we will always be grateful. With fantastic service like that, you have won our trust and respect for Adventure Treks Nepal.

We have no hesitation in recommending Adventure Treks Nepal to family, friends and anybody else that is thinking of travelling that way. Gyan, we wish you and all the team the very best of luck and success for the future.

Yours sincerely,

David & Hayley Myers
