    AMAZING experience hiking to Annapurna Base Camp

    Birendra went above and beyond my expectations with all of his help with organizing my trip from Singapore to Annapurna Base Camp. He helped to organize all of my permits, a guide, and even my round-trip flight from Kathmandu -- Pokhara -- Kathmandu. I absolutely recommend Birendra's company and I am happy to answer any questions from travelers who are considering his company

    Trekking the ABC- camp in Himalaya with Sonam was the best experience ever:)

    I was doing the trekking to Annapurna basecamp in February 2015. Thanks to my guide Sonam it turned out to be the best hiking in my life so far. He took so well care of the group and I felt very safe all the time. He showed us the nature and had really good knowledge about the area. I will highly recommend everyone that who is thinking of hiking in Nepal go with the adventure club and expedition.
    Thanks for everything and good luck in the future.
    Best regards
    Niklas

    Wonderfull days in Nepal with So Nam

    Namaste. I spend 2 weeks in Nepal in October 2015. It was a very nice trip. To reach the ABC was our main goal. This trek was really fantastic. Very well organized with a helpful and very kind team. So Nam Ghale was our Nepal guard. This young man is an excellent person. Helpful, kind, sunny, friendly.

    Two fantastic weeks in Nepal

    I spent 2 fantastic weeks in Nepal last October. The Annapurna trek was one of the best experiences and adventures of my life. It was amazing :). This is a fantastic country - beautiful landscapes, very nice people. And...So Nam Ghale is the best guide ever!

    Thank you again, I will return for sure!

    Well organized trip. great guide

    I spent 2 weeks in Nepal.
    So Nam seemed to be a very nice guy from the beginning. He has done his best to fulfill all our requests and wishes, which is not easy with a group of 20 people. However, he was always flexible. During a week trek to ABC several times I had the occasion to chat with him, and I learned a lot about local people, their habits, and traditions. So, Nam, you made my stay in Nepal really unforgettable.
    After the group left, I stayed another night in Kathmandu it was no trouble for So Nam to come with me and show me some parts of the city, which I haven't seen yet.

    The services of the agency besides So Nam were good. There was no trouble at any place with the accommodation. ( So Nam helped us to change as well, when we didn't like one place the room, because we found it a bit small - he was really always there for us)

    Since one day we were traveling a lot to Chitwan, and we were really tired after a couple of hours of rafting and a few hours on the bus, it would be very much appreciated if we didn't have to wait a long time for the dinner. Unfortunately, it took about 2 hours to serve us the dinner. (Maybe we could write down the order on the bus for example and So Nam could order it through the phone - and once we arrived there, it could have been served.)

    The hotels we stayed at, were basic, there was everywhere wifi available - I never used it, they were clean, breakfast at some places very good, others a little bit lower quality, but still good and no reason to complain.

    I plan to return to Nepal in a year or so, and I already know, whom to contact, and I am sure, I will have an unforgettable experience again.

    Very well taken care of while visiting Nepal by Birendra and his team!

    Birendra was recommended by my cousin who previously hired him and his team for trekking in Nepal. Probably there is nothing he wouldn't know about Nepal and its activities. A guide was assigned to me, So Nam, he was also very friendly, helpful, and had good knowledge about trekking despite of his age. Highly recommended team while in Nepal and planning to do some activities!

    Highly recommend ... Birendra and his team fantastic

    Thanks to Birendra for his great knowledge and assistance in getting our trek itinerary together after having to change regions due to accessibility. Always open and honest we were able to tailor our trek as needed for our own group of four people. And our guide Sonam, with Norbu and Manlama as our team, looked after us all the way in a professional and relaxed manner, making sure we were OK with acclimatization, ensuring everything ran smoothly, and providing flexibility if we decided to change our trek itinerary. A truly amazing experience with the people and places of Nepal. We wanted to choose a locally run company for our trek and found a winner in Adventure Club!

    Once in a lifetime trip made possible with these fantastic guides!

    This once-in-a-lifetime trip was made possible through the hard work that Birendra and his guides - So Nam, Kali, and Bhim put in into looking after us and arranging everything.
    I was the group organizer for my group and my job was made easy with these guys. Our health and safety was always put first and as such all 10 of us in the group made it to base camp and back without altitude sickness or requiring helicopter evacuation.
    Garlic is good to help prevent altitude sickness so So Nam ensured we had garlic soup most days to help minimize the risk of getting it!
    We could not fly over to Lukla for 2 days so lost time on our trek and being a basic trekking group we were running out of time to do the trek safely. However, Birendra explored every option possible to make sure we didn't miss out on doing this once-in-a-lifetime trek.
    By the end of the trip, we were all very attached to all our guides and porters.
    This was well organized and most importantly we all felt safe and could trust each of them. Would definitely recommend Adventure Club Trek to anyone!
