Amazing 3 day hike with beautiful views! - We did the 3 day hike up to Poon Hill with our guide Buddhi, who was extremely knowledgable, helpful and nice! Had good conversations along the way which took our mind off the ascent. The views were amazing throughout, many photo opportunities along the way even before the main view point on day 3. We got many beautiful pictures thanks to Buddhi :) The guesthouses were clean and accommodating with good food as well. Would recommend this for people who are short on time and want a quick hike that allows you to see multiple mountains (e.g Annapurna etc).

3 Day Poon Hill - Embarked on a 3 day Poon Hill trip with Buddhi and it was one of the best experiences we have had. As this was the first time we came to Nepal we wanted something more beginner friendly and this trek definitely did not disappoint with the views and experience. Will definitely recommend this for anyone who wants a trek with decent elevation, good views and good food. Special shoutout to Anjan who answered all our queries months before the trip and was very patient with us. Other than bringing us around and checking on us constantly, our guide Buddhi shared with us more about the culture and history of Nepal which was eye opening. Highly recommended

The trek itself is stunning with views of the colorful rhododendron forests as well as stunning mountain rages in the background. Our guide, Nabin, was friendly and very helpful throughout the trip! Highly recommended.

Nepal High Trek – Poonhill & Mardi-Himal - We have a fantastic journey of 7 days trek from Poonhill to Mardi-Himal with Nepal High Trek & Expedition Team. The whole trekking journey including the Kathamandu & Pokhara City tour was well organized by Anjan and his team. Food and accommodation are exceeded our expectation. During the trek, our guide Pawan and his helper Dawa, Rajan, Bertik and Suzan are so helpful and attentive to our needs, always ensure we are safe and sound. We have so much fun by singing, dancing, and laughing together throughout the journey. It was a memorable experience, and I would highly recommend Nepal High Trek & Expedition to anyone who wish to visit Nepal.
