Caring Guides Who Went Above and Beyond

wonderful view of annapurna

I highly recommend choosing Hillary Steps Trek for hiking in Nepal. Our guide, Joy, was attentive and helpful from sun up to sun down, going above and beyond to make sure we was safe and comfortable. Our porter’s, Shiva and Dawa, were very kind and positive, making our trek even more enjoyable. This was my first major trek every and I was anxious, but my guide and porter’s were great supports. My knee played up on the trek so Dawa gave me his hiking pole to use, Shiva carried my day pack and Joy carried my water bottle to help me. The Anaperna Base Camp trek was stunning! Hillary Steps Trek company even helped us to organise last minute jeep transport from Kathmandu to Pokhara. I have Celiac disease and Joy made sure that my meals were safe to eat at each stop and helped me read food packaging to make sure it gluten free.

My wife and I spent almost a month with Hari last year doing the Manaslu and Tsum Valley Trek. We had the most incredible trip and in Hari we couldn't have imagined having a better guide. Patient, attentive but not overbearing, able to adapt our itinerary to suit our level of fitness to maximise our enjoyment of the trek. He always knew the best place to stay and who had the best food. We have travelled all over the world and this has been my favorite trip to date.

"We had a fantastic trip with Hari as our guide for the Manaslu Circuit and the Tsum Valley. Hari was great - he always knew the best place to stay, best place to eat, best views and side trips to take. He was knowledgeable of the local customs, full of interesting stories, facts and figures and above all fun to be around. It was a real pleasure to have him as our guide - he made our holiday truly memorable. We can't thank him enough."

Hari was an exceptional guide from the time I arrived at the airport to when he dropped me off. The itinerary was impeccably organized, he was flexible to meet my preferences, and knew the routes and surroundings very well. Hari is very well-liked by the other guides which is helpful in the hostels, and is also good with people. I recommend him highly enough.
