Wonderful travelling company - I’ve had an amazing experience on the manaslu trek with the company of Razeendra! First of all, when we arrived at the airport he was there to pick us up. Then, we were transported to the most perfect, luxurious hotel where we were accommodated with a clean room and breakfast. I have nothing bad to say about the hotel. After that, our trip started on the manaslu trek, and we met Pujan, our guide. He was a very friendly, outgoing person who guided us perfectly during the trek. He was a funny and giving person who knew exactly what to do even in tougher situations. We got a package with accommodation and food for an amazing price. The hotel and trekking company were connected, so it was very easy to go on the trek from the hotel. The trek was beautiful, and we had the best weather and experience. We slept in teahouses, and for breakfast, lunch and dinner we could order anything on the card so we got enough food to keep us fuelled. I saw the most amazing mountains during the trek. Soon, after we got back to Kathmandu, we were allowed to stay another night in the hotel for free, which was really refreshing to get cleaned up. The day after, there was a festival, and Razeendra was so kind to take us to his family, where we were allowed to follow a ritual and got food. This was the most heartwarming experience, and I am so happy that Razeendra offered it to us. This way we were allowed to get a look into the Nepali culture and we were welcomed so warmly. All in all, I would really recommend doing a trek with the company of Razeendra! I had the best experience and would really like to go back.

recommended for customised day trip planning in and around kathmandu - We were well taken care of.
We went on the Nagarkot sunrise drive support which was an early morning start from Kathmandu. The driver was ready to go for 4am on the dot. He drove easily , safely and the best part was that he was a trained guide. So we got good descriptions and in depth insights , of which tour guides are trained and well versed on. He spoke good English and we learnt a lot of new insights on the various places visited and not visited.
The tour was custom setup with choice of our locations and the driver was very kind enough to give us more than the committed time due to traffic and other conditions.
There is a nice and understanding team behind this operator. Willing to work with you. They also have other ventures which can cater for travellers needs.

Sunrise Himalaya and UNESCO heritage sites outside Kathmandu - Did a one day Tour with Manish Shrestha and this was really excellenct! Manish picked me up at 4:30 - early in the morning to experience the sunrise above the Himalaya. We arrived 15 minutes before sunrise, it was perfect- and we were above the clouds. Later we visited Ranijhula Suspension Bridge nagarkot, Changunarayan Tempe and Bhaktapur City. Manish is a very friendly man, he knosws a lot and we had interesting conversations - I can recommend to do tours with Manish - fully five stars
