Great Experience in Kathmandu - HSJ arranged for me the trip to Chandragiri Hill as well as the Everest flight during my visit to Kathmandu. Everything including hotel pick-up/drop-off was super smooth. Staff is very knowledgeable. Highly recommended for anyone traveling to Nepal for the first time.
