One always worries whether a trekking company is being honest and how much their markup is, but Puru Timalsena and Above the Himalayas were straightforward, honest, told me where not to spend extra though it would have benefitted him, and did great follow up. I have used Above the Himalayas for two trips, the first in 2019 to visit Upper Mustang for the Tiji festival and the second in November 2020 for the Everest/Khumbu region. As I was living in Nepal, I tried initially to do some of the groundwork for myself, but with someone as knowledgeable as Puru at the helm, that was a mistake. He even helped us out on a hotel I tried to arrange on my own and helped us gather reliable information on how to get my wife back to Nepal during the pandemic after she had to leave with only a regular tourist visa. In both cases, he helped without any additional commission on his side, which you wouldn’t readily find in a country like Nepal. His arrangements and advice were always spot on. I highly recommend Above the Himalayas.

We made a private trek with our two adult children with Namaste Treks and Expeditions. Pre-trip communication with Steve Tickle (US contact and experienced guide) was excellent. Jangbu put together a challenging and well planned trek for us. His son Karma was our guide. He was knowledgeable, entertaining, attentive to any needs, and anticipated/took care of any issues that arose. We also really enjoyed our porters. The tea houses were clean, food was good, the views beautiful, and we were able to learn about and enjoy the culture and people (as promised by this company with decades of experience in the area). Be prepared for endless climbing and descending stone steps!

I just completed a climb with Trekking Planner- Gyeljan Sherpa and I summited Mera peak on 4/30 and made a dream of mine come true! This is the second time i come to Nepal with Trekking Planner and it is always a pleasure to plan and work with Dipak! Everything is organized to the smallest detail-from airport pick up, to meals and gear rentals-everything is great every time! Gyeljan was more than an excellent guide, he made sure i am ok at all times not only physically but mentally also when above 6000m! Pasang was also making sure i am well fed and taken care of at all times while at the lodges. Dipak made sure the return and stay at hotel was rescheduled smoothly due to ongoing changes. This is an amazing company that provides the best service both in Kathmandu and high in the mountains! I will be back next year for sure!!! Thank you for everything!!!
