Package Reviews

What our customer says about this package.

Super well organised trek to PoonHill

I did a lovely 5-day trek to PoonHill, all perfectly organised by Santosh who was always available and considerate with all details. Everything worked like clock-work. Prem, the guide, was simply the best. He was always helpful, attentive and knew his way with his eyes closed. I would totally recommend using Amazing Nepal Trek & Expedition to organise your adventure in Nepal!
