A Caring Agent

I traveled to Kathmandu for a conference and visited the World Heritage sites, but the most impressive sightseeing was the early morning mountain flight at 5:15 to see the Himalayas. My wife walks with crutches and was taken good care of, especially on the last day when her feet got swallowed badly, Mani kindly arranged her to receive the best medical treatment in the local international hospital. She had a CT, received effective medication, and was released after an overnight stay. The best travel agents are those who really care about their clients!

Everest/Lhotse expedition

Two friends and I signed up for Everest/Lhotse expedition through Mani. Mani was super responsive and gave us quote right away fitting our requests. We were matched to Satori expeditions for logistics and guiding (typical in 8000m expeditions for companies to combine logistics for efficiency). Mani has been transparent and had great communication before and during the expedition. He also met us in Kathmandu after to make sure everything goes smoothly post -exped. The expedition was long but I summited Everest, which was the top goal for the trip. I'm very happy with all the planning and help from the Great adventure treks and expeditions.

Superb experience 7 days Nepal trip

I generally book the hotels on my own but this time decided to go via tour travelers for some local experience. After taking quotes and details from 2 other companies, contacted Mani ji via whatsapp for 7 day Nepal tour. As a owner, he himself guided and made the itinerary for me. 1. Full transparency from hotel category to exact hotels and all inclusions exclusions w.r.t costs. 2. Pick ups , sight seeing everytime the car was on time. 3. All the staff were very helpful and courteous. 4. Any changes from my side were accepted without any discomfort. 5. Mr. Mani ji was available all the time for any info or help. Best thing was he never asked for any advance payment for sharing itinerary and giving hotel details etc. One of the best tour organiser experience I had. Highly recommend him !!

We trekked up to Everest Base Camp to undertake the Everest Marathon, and throughout our time in Nepal we were fully supported by the Team at Great Adventure Treks. The owner of the company, Mani, was in constant contact with us, helping to arrange our trip and meet our needs. He ensured every aspect of our trip was catered for. He put us in contact with our Guide (Padam) and our Porter (Sunil), who accompanied us up to base camp. Padam was an excellent guide, who was knowable, understanding and caring throughout our trek. He ensured we were ready for the marathon and his knowledge of the area was truly amazing. Sunil has an excellent character. He was with us every step of the way, carrying out bags from Lukla all the way to base camp. He did all this with a constant smile on his face, ensuring our spirits remained high throughout the long trekking days. The Trek and Marathon were amazing events, and the majesty of the Himalayas can not be understated. Overall, we had an amazing time and would strongly recommended anyone who was looking to visit the region to get in touch and book with the Great Adventure Trekking company.
