Mr. Sujan and the Alpine Himalaya team have been excellent to deal with. Sujan is excellent at trip planning and made us an amazing itinerary for the Annapurna circuit and activities in Pokhara like paragliding, bungee, & zip line. He also organised a cake for my birthday🎂. We completed Annapurna circuit with our guide Pemba Sherpa and porter Dawa Sherpa they were amazing. Pemba sherpa was very kind, professional, and took such great care of us. He really took the time to teach us about the culture in the mountains and shared details about the landscape. I really felt privileged to be able to walk the circuit with him. Thank you again Alpine club of Himalaya and the team for the wonderful experience. ...more ...less

14-Apr-2023

Just returned to Seoul after 14day Annapurna sanctuary trek. The trekking was fantastic and Sujan well organized everything for us and we could enjoy the trekking. It was once in a life time experience for me and Sujan arranged experienced sherpa and porter who made our trekking more enjoyable. I am 70 and worried about this challenging trekking and Sujan said to me that “age is only a number” and he helped me to do this trekking. Sujan is a really professional who can make the trekking more enjoyable and safe. I found that his main concern was customers’ safety and satisfaction. I definitely return to Nepal for next trip and thanks Sujan and Pasang our sherpa. ...more ...less

28-Oct-2024

We recently trekked the Manaslu circuit over 11 days with Alpine Club of Himalaya. Pemba and Karma were excellent as guide and porter, respectively. This is the second time we have used Alpine Club of Himalaya and loved our experience again. The first trek was the Annapurna Circuit Trek and included experiencing Dashain during the trek. This recent trek we experienced Tibetan culture. Sujan is an excellent host, responsive, and attends to fine details. He and the team care about your well being and treat you like family. We look forward to using them again on our next trip! 🙏 ...more ...less

23-Oct-2023

The trip was amazing, well worth taking. It was very well organised, the company even provided sleeping bags and duffel jackets which came in handy when it snowed at basecamp. Our guide and porter were knowledgeable and friendly, we were in excellent hands with them. If you’re considering a trek that isn’t too long but has excellent views nonetheless, go on this one. ...more ...less
