EOMASK9469587433bf92XFabulous trek to Gokyo and Cho La Pass with Nepalgram Adventures We had an amazing trek to Gokyo and Cho La pass with Nepalgram Adventures in October 2024. Our Mr. Nuru Sherpa was wonderful and so pleasant during our 20 days together. Arun and Ashok were very helpful with the booking and administration and answered all of our non stop questions. We appreciated their flexibility and ability to customize the itinerary and found them to be very professional. We landed in the aftermath of the flooding in Kathmandu and they were quick to make a plan B for us which entailed hiking to Cheplung from Kinja instead of flying to Lukla. We would highly recommend Nepalgram to anyone considering a trekking adventure in Nepal.EOMASK9469587433bf93X

EOMASK9469587433bf94XEBC + Chola pass to Gokyo - A trip of a lifetime! My husband & I did the EBC trek + Chola pass to Gokyo over 15 days. We had an amazing time and are very happy that we went with Nepalgram. Prior to arrival, they responded swiftly to emails and answered any questions that we had. They sorted out domestic flights and rebookings when bad weather caused us to miss our first flight out of Kathmandu to Lukla. Ashok’s mum graciously allowed us to stay in her guest room for that night, so that we would be able to make the alternative transport early the next morning. Our guide and porter were the best and we enjoyed their company and knowledge of all the geography throughout the trip. The experience our guide has is impressive and the itinerary & pace of the whole trek was well planned. We had the absolute best time and would recommend going with Nepalgram!EOMASK9469587433bf95X

Langtang Trek Reviews Find tours About Nepalgram Adventure Reviews (23) Excellent Good Average Rather poor Bad Show specific ratings Langtang Valley Circuit Trek - 11 Days reviewer 1 Minh Langtang Valley Circuit Trek - 11 Days 5.0Excellent Having been an organizer of Buddhist Pilgrimages in India and Nepal for many years, I wanted to do a first Trek in Langtang (region with Buddhist history...). So I searched for an agency online and came across this one. After numerous and courteous discussions (high availability), the choice was made for this family agency on a human scale. The Trek was perfectly organized: welcome in the house, formalities, explanations, meetings with the guide, loan of equipment if necessary (sleeping bag, etc.), donation of t-shirt or polo shirt with the agency logo, ... Then debriefing after the Trek by offering a dinner and hand-delivered Trek certificate. The members of the agency are welcoming, smiling and open (Arun, Ashok....). They care about doing the right thing and are very attentive. The next Trek will still be by them. Because why change when things have gone very well? Do not hesitate to use their service. Our guide and porter were very good in everything.EOMASK9469587433bf97X

EOMASK9469587433bf100XGreat adventure Love ❤️ Nepal. Will visit again 🤗 Nepalgram guys are very loving and caring. They are great. Initially I was little nervous because it was the first solo trek and travel of my life. But when I reached Nepalgram office, they took complete care of me. Didn't make me feel like stranger. I didn't even realise that I had gone Nepal for the first time. Ashok is the one who took me to Thamil hub in Katmandu. He also took me around the katmandu in his bike.I enjoyed it in the evening . I also went to Buddha Stupa. It was nice evening ☺️. Ashok is very caring person . He is too good 👍. There is an aunt who is Arun's mother.I was staying with aunty in Katmandu. She took me to Pashupati Nat temple. She is very lovely. She took great care of me. God bless her. I had a 12 days tracking program. It was a journey from Lukla EBC. I met Nuru (Ngawang Sherpa) there. He was my guide. He took complete care of me during my tracking. My needs, health, comfort, discomfort everything. Because of him I have been able to complete this journey. Nuru is just wow man. Sherpa is the hero of mountain. So, I have a big thanks to all the team of Nepalgram .🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡EOMASK9469587433bf101X

EOMASK9469587433bf102XGreat and flexible trekking programme We had an amazing week trekking the beauty of Nepal. We went for the panorama trek going from Lukla, Phakding, Toktok, Namche Bazaar. Our Sherpa Nuru took care of us very well and helped us arrange everything so that we didn’t have to worry about anything. His pace was good and there were sufficient breaks along the way. His choice of accommodation were great with picturesque views especially at Namche Bazaar amidst the numerous stairs up. It was all worth it. He was flexible to our health conditions and looked out for us. Our porter Som carried our bags with agility and experience that he always arrived faster than us. He never complained about the weight and always had a smile on his face whenever we greeted him. Kudos to all the porters in Nepal, having to navigate the arduous roads, stones, landslides and yak dungs. We booked with Nepalgram because of friend’s recommendation. Arun gave us valuable insights and tips before the hike. I was pleasantly happy that there was a good ratio of 1 Sherpa to 2 trekkers compared to a trekking group. He constantly checked in on us and helped us arrange transportation. We were awed by the nature and friendliness that Nepal had shown us.EOMASK9469587433bf103X

EOMASK9469587433bf104XNepalgram guys are Stars It was an amazing trip to the restricted region of Manaslu with Nepalgram Adventure. I felt like king in this trip. Guide Binod was intelligent, smart and attentive. Food, accommodation, tea houses and toilets are the best available in the route. Day 1 was not as organized as i was expecting, because i joined a group of 5 in this trek. But once Binod started to organize all the prospect of the trekking members it ended very good. We all made the trip over Larkey pass. We managed to trek to Manaslu base camp. The view of this trekking is incredible. I lost my phone while walking on the glacier of Manaslu base camp and the effort that Binod and porter Sunit used to find was incredible. I thank them for helping me out in that altitude with that level of care. But Unfortunately we did not get the phone back. These guys are incredible. Arun was answering all my questions and he was replying to all my emails more promptly than i was expecting. I recommend Nepalgram with full of my heart. These guys will never let your adventure low. Guys at Nepalgram (at office or in the filed are stars).EOMASK9469587433bf105X
