My partner and I recently had the pleasure of embarking on the Langtang Trek with Amigo Treks and Expedition, and we cannot recommend it enough. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of fantastic.
Before the trek, we worked closely with Niti from the sales team to customize our itinerary based on our needs and preferences. She was incredibly helpful and responsive, and we felt confident that we were in good hands.
During the trek, our guide and porter were both excellent. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area and provided us with lots of interesting information about the local culture and history. Our porter was also very friendly and accommodating, and we felt very well taken care of throughout the trip.
The trek itself was absolutely breathtaking. The scenery was simply stunning, and we were constantly amazed by the incredible views of the Himalayas. The trail was challenging at times, but always manageable, and we felt a great sense of accomplishment every time we reached a new milestone.
Overall, we had an incredible experience on the Langtang Trek with Amigo Treks and Expedition, and we are already planning to book our next trek with them - the Everest Base Camp Trek. If you're considering a trek in Nepal, we highly recommend choosing Amigo Treks and Expedition - you won't be disappointed!
With 3 friends we trek up the Tsum Valley supported by our guide Dawa and porters Shambu and Anil… a fantastic trip. Beautiful, fascinating,
