I want to say thank you again for our wonderful trekking ABC-tour. Two weeks I was getting surprised by new things, sights and information about exotic cultures, castes, religion in Nepal, that is not just a set of beliefs or rituals handled down from generation to generation but a way to reach harmony and tolerance for many different cultures and ideologies. Owing to you I found out that Nepal is probably one of the friendliest and mysterious countries in the world.
You did a very good job. You and your team were very helpful and professional with all our questions and requests. Our holiday trip was well-organized and I will have no hesitation in recommending your services to anyone who wants to visit Nepal.

I have had the great pleasure of knowing Raj for over 10 years,having trekked with him on at least 3 occasions.
Raj is a true gentleman,and an extremely competent guide.He is well equipped to lead treks to many parts of Nepal on account of his extensive experience.
Raj is quite a special person with a most trust-worthy and caring personality.He has the highest possible ethics,and always gives 110% as a leader.
It gives me great pleasure to recommend Raj to potential trekkers who place value on excellent and competent leadership,and on personal qualities of a very high order.
I would be happy to confirm this testimonial to individuals or groups .

In 2004 I joined three friends from Australia for a trek to Gokyo Lakes.
Raj (Rajendra) was recommended as a reliable guide so we booked him for our trek.
Being my first organised trek in Nepal I was apprehensive on the flight to Kathmandu and had no idea what to expect.
Raj met us at the airport and immediately I was impressed with his friendly relaxed attitude which dispelled any worries that I had.
Arrangements were well organised and concern for every detail made the trek run as smoothly as possible.
On a personal level his command of English is good, so I learnt quite a lot about the natural and cultural values of the Kumbu region and we talked about our life and families in Nepal and Australia.
On returning to Australia we exchanged emails and photos.
I enjoyed the trek so much that I returned in 2008 for another trek organised and guided by Raj to Annapurna Sanctuary and Jomsom trek to Muktinath.
I thoroughly enjoyed both treks and recommend Raj as a competent and caring guide.
I consider him a good friend and I am sure we will meet again.

Namaste! Raj Thapa was my guide when myself and a girlfriend completed the Everest Base Camp trek a few years ago in Nepal. Raj possesses extensive knowledge of the flora, fauna, geographical landscape and religious traditions of this beautiful region of the world and he is always more than willing to impart this knowledge on clients and friends.
Raj is extremely professional in his approach to the safety and wellbeing of his clients, he takes his duty of care very seriously however he knows how to have a good time and takes evey opportunity to entertain his clients along the way.
My trek to Everest Base Camp was an unparallelled and life changing experience and I attribute this not only to the wonderous beauty of the Himilayas but also to Raj and the light in which he enabled me to view the culture and customs of truly amazing destination.
Thank-you my friend!

Namaste, Raj Thapa who was our guide to the Annapurna Basecamp in October 2010.
Without exageration, he was the best guide we could have wished.
He always tried to help his group, he was attentive, he always found a solution, when there seemed to be a problem.
We always felt to be in best company with him. His experience helped us to learn about Nepalese history and society and of course the beautiful nature we were walking through. Raj always showed his responsibility for his group if necessary, for example when somebody felt sick at day and at night. With his good sense of humour he several times helped us to overcome difficulties. And as much as he showed responsibility for the trekkers he did for his porters.
Of course I hope to come back to Nepal in a few years. Then i will try to contact raj and hope that he will find time to be our guide again.
