Excellent Trek

05-Mar-2020

I would like to highly recommend Himalaya Sanctuary. This Annapurna Base Camp is my first trekking in Nepal, the entire trip spend about 14days included first day inThamel, 2nd day in Pokhara, same as the last 2 days. The trekking days is about 10days. Package was all included accommodation, meal at mountains, except lunch and dinner at Kathmandu and Pokhara. We also amazed by the farewell dinner organised and accompanied by Bishnu and Prem who are the chairman of Himalayan Sanctuary. They also arranged an experience tour guide and strong porter to Annapurna Base Camp. Everyday Bishnu monitor our tour nin mountain ensure we are pleasant and safe along the journey, thanks. Although due to weather we unable trek further to base camp from Bamboo, the experience tour guide name Pancha purpose alternative to trek to another village. Overall we are so happy and appreciate what Himalayan Sanctuary arranged for us, thank you to Bishnu, Prem, Pancha and Bubian. ...more ...less

ヒマラヤサンクチュアリアドベンチャーのビシュヌと一緒にこの旅行をしました。彼らは最初から最後まですべての重要な取り決めを適切に整理していました。ガイドは素晴らしく、とても思いやりのある人でした。彼は、私のトレッキングをできるだけ快適にするためにずっと私を助けてくれました。私はそれらを強くお勧めします。将来、彼らと一緒に他のトレッキングを行うことは間違いありません。
