I had an excellent experience with Up To Himalaya. I was having issues with another tour agency that was taking several days to correspond with and was not flexible to my needs at all. 1 email to Sudeep at Up To Himalaya, and within an hour I got a call with a personalized itinerary to suit my time requirements and my athletic ability. On top of that, the team arranged flights for me to/from Pokhara from Kathmandu and pick up from and to the airport. And it cost half the price other companies quoted! And all payments were addressed after my tour. I felt they were focused on me having a good experience rather than any financial incentive. I had an excellent experience trekking the Poon Hill for three days. I was hiking with my guide Dinesh, and he was also excellent. I had space for quiet contemplation when I wanted it or a friendly chat for hours as well. My guide had all the answers to my local questions and was always accommodating for me. From ensuring every room, I stayed at had an excellent view and attached bathroom right down to a friendly wake up call to make sure I didn’t miss any spectacular views of the mountains or shooting stars. I felt safe throughout the entire trek and had complete trust in my guide. The team was also really helpful in suggesting things to do and see in Pokhara as well as where to stay.
I will recommend Up To Himalaya for all. I have no complaints, and I very much look forward to my next adventure with them in the future. If you have any doubts about who to book with – go with them.
