I had never flown in a helicopter over the Himalayas before, and the experience was surreal. Booking through Nepal Trek Adventure made everything stress-free; they handled the permits and guided me through safety instructions. As we ascended, I felt a mix of excitement and nervousness, but that quickly turned to awe. The valleys, rivers, and forests seemed miniature from above, while peaks like Langtang Lirung and Langtang Ri towered majestically. 

The pilot’s narration added context to villages, monasteries, and glaciers we flew over. I remember taking a deep breath as we hovered near a glacier; the sound of ice cracking faintly in the distance was both eerie and beautiful. For someone who couldn’t commit to a long trek, this heli tour offered an unforgettable, effortless immersion in Langtang’s magic.

I was a solo traveler from Lyon, nervous yet excited. Nepal Trek Adventure made the entire planning phase so smooth—Binod was prompt in replying to every email, and I was well-prepared by the time I arrived.

Our 14-day trek began with an awe-inducing flight to Lukla. I joined a group of 5 other adventurers from around the world, and our guide Tribhuvan created such a positive, team-like atmosphere. We supported each other through the highs and lows, especially the climb to Tengboche Monastery and later through the moraine fields near Lobuche.

Day by day, the air thinned, but my spirit soared. The glacier near Gorakshep and the final steps to Everest Base Camp felt surreal—icy winds, prayer flags, and the echoing crunch of snow under our boots.

Tribhuvan’s knowledge, humor, and patience were vital. He watched over us like a big brother, even checking our oxygen levels nightly. NTA's attention to safety made all the difference.

Merci Nepal Trek Adventure! You helped me fulfill a dream—and made me fall in love with the Himalayas.

I chose the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek—2Days with Nepal Trek Adventure because I had limited time in Nepal, and it was the best decision I made. The trek was short, but every step was filled with beauty and excitement. The trail was scenic, passing through lush forests and traditional Gurung villages. The highlight came early on the second morning when we trekked up to Poon Hill. Watching the sunrise over the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges was a life-changing experience. The colors and views were beyond words.

Our guide was excellent, ensuring everything ran smoothly and sharing insights about the region. The teahouse was comfortable and welcoming, with tasty meals after the day’s trek. Nepal Trek Adventure handled everything with professionalism and care, making this short trek feel like a complete Himalayan adventure. Highly recommended for anyone with limited time in Nepal.

My journey to Gosaikunda started almost by accident. I had initially planned for a different trek, but while researching, I came across Nepal Trek Adventure’s recommendation for this one. I was traveling solo after finishing my master’s degree, looking for something meaningful. From the first call, their staff patiently answered all my questions and assured me that even as a first-timer in the Himalayas, I would be fine. The trek was a rollercoaster of emotions: excitement when crossing suspension bridges, exhaustion climbing steep ridges, and pure joy when I saw the Himalayan peaks glowing at sunrise.

 At night, my guide and I often sat by the fire in small teahouses, listening to locals share stories about their festivals and beliefs. Reaching Gosaikunda Lake felt like arriving at a hidden jewel. The silence, broken only by the wind and the occasional flutter of prayer flags, created a sense of serenity I had never experienced. It wasn’t just about reaching a destination; it was about the inner calm the journey gifted me.

This 8-day trek was the perfect balance of challenge and beauty. Trekking through forests, terraced fields, and high-altitude villages gave me a deep sense of connection with the region. The calm waters of Gokyo Lakes were stunning, and the reflection of the peaks in the water created an almost surreal atmosphere. Climbing Gokyo Ri early in the morning was a highlight; seeing Everest, Lhotse, and Cho Oyu bathed in golden light was unforgettable. Crossing rocky paths and higher trails tested my endurance, but the views kept me motivated. Ending with a helicopter ride back to Kathmandu allowed me to enjoy the grandeur of the valley from above, providing a unique perspective on the route I had completed.

I had been a city dweller all my life, craving a challenge that would push me beyond my comfort zone. I didn’t contact any trekking agency; I wanted the experience raw and self-reliant. The trail itself was tougher than I expected rocky ridges, icy slopes, and sudden fog. One afternoon, a sudden drizzle made the path slippery, and I nearly slipped, but a fellow trekker caught my hand just in time. That moment sparked a spontaneous bond, and we ended up sharing stories, meals, and laughter for the rest of the trek. Nights in small lodges were unexpectedly cozy, with shared meals, board games, and quiet reflection under the Himalayan stars. Reaching Lauribina Pass after a long, tiring ascent felt like conquering more than just a mountain; it was about resilience, trust, and the thrill of personal achievement.

I had always wanted a trek that combined high mountains, lakes, and authentic village life. Nepal Trek Adventure helped me plan everything from permits to teahouse bookings, which allowed me to focus on the adventure itself. Walking through the Langtang Valley, I was mesmerized by the towering peaks and dense forests, but it was the warmth of the locals that made the journey memorable. One afternoon, a family invited me into their home for butter tea, and I found myself laughing with them despite the language barrier.

Crossing streams and trekking up steep ridges toward Gosaikunda Lake was physically challenging, but every step was rewarded with views that felt surreal, icy waters reflecting snow-capped peaks. Reaching the pass, I paused to take in the vastness of the Himalayas; the sense of accomplishment and awe was overwhelming. Nights in cozy lodges, sharing meals and stories with fellow trekkers, made the experience both adventurous and comforting. By the end, I returned home inspired, humbled, and grateful for a journey that connected me deeply to both nature and humanity.

The Ghandruk Village Trek with Nepal Trek Adventure was one of the most memorable short treks in Nepal I’ve ever done. Nestled in the Annapurna region, this trek combined breathtaking scenery with rich cultural encounters. The village itself was stunning—stone-paved streets, traditional Gurung houses, and spectacular views of Annapurna South, Hiunchuli, and Machhapuchhre. Our guide ensured we connected with locals, which made the experience even more meaningful. Though the trek was short and easy, it still offered a rewarding Himalayan adventure. The accommodation in traditional tea houses gave an authentic touch, while meals were simple but delicious. This trek is perfect for travelers who want to experience both mountains and culture in just a few days. Nepal Trek Adventure’s organization made everything stress-free, from transport to guiding. I highly recommend the Ghandruk Village Trek to anyone looking for a short yet enriching journey in Nepal.
