Nous avons passé 5 jours sur le trek de Poon Hill Avec Uttam qui s'est occupé de tout pour notre première expérience au Népal, s'adaptant très bien à notre rythme. Nous en avons Aussi pas mal appris sur la vie au Népal, il savait très bien où il allait et nous a même fait prendre des petits raccourcis sympa. Les hébergements choisi étaient bien et la nourriture super bonne ! Merci beaucoup!

"I had such a wonderful time with this company. I came to Nepal alone and was looked after from the minute I landed until I left. Everything went smoothly. My guide Uttam was very knowledgeable and I felt safe throughout the trip. He knew the best spots for incredible views and is such a lovely person. I couldn't fault the trip in any way and I am already looking to book another trip with them. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore the himalayas."
