The Gokyo - EBC trek was altogether expertly organized and conducted. Our Hotel in kathmandu and the first day tour of Kathmandu Valley were both a fantastic introduction to Nepal.

The Hours of Trekking were tderable without being exhausing and we were given plenty of time to recover. Lodges and food were great and we never went hungry. Both our guide and porter were very friendly and made the trip very enjoyable. 

My only criticism woud be our guide Naresh, while a very nice man, lacked the confidence at times to properly 'guide' the trek. While i understand he is still improving his english and would make a world of difference in building a rapport with his clients that he attempt to learn everyone's names and also work on speaking more loudly and to the entire group when conducting a brief rather than as he was doing; informing only jeff about what to expect from the days trek and then expecting jeff to pass on the information to everyonelse. This is not jeff's responsibilty, nor it build any form of confidence in our guides capability or experience. It is also how information becomes confused or details forgotten. While I also realize he is not a sherpa of the local region, it would make more enjoyable and informative trek if our guide could familiarise himself with some local sherpas culture so as to help us understand as some of what we see whilist trekking, in particular the large stones and bolders painted or engraved with sherpa language. He seemed to know very little abut the villages and their customs.

There are my only criticisms and while only minor, I belive they would improve the trek immensly. That said, I am in full agreement with everyone with Naresh is a great person and we had a wonder time in the himalaya. I would not hesitate to return and trek with Nepal Nomad or recommend Them to anyone. Thank You Sarba! You have Charisma and eun a good operation!

When we were organizing the trip from Australia Sarba promptly returned emails. I was really impressed with Sarbas service and reliability. He was always there when we needed information or assistance. When we were organizing the trip from Australia Sarba promptly returned emails. It would be highly recommended if Nepal Nomad had a credit card Which Nepal Nomad has now) booking facility to make deposit. It was extremely difficult to deposit money into in to the bank from home. Sarba’s porters, Shanker and Toya, were very approachable and always willing to help. They were very hard workers and a great asset. It would be good if more activities or things to do when at tea houses. As sometimes it was quite boring. However, choice of tea houses and accommodation was fantastic and very comfortable. Gokyo Ri was a highlight! The trek was amazing and will be recommending this to family and friends at home. Thanks for everything Sarba! James Fitzgerald Melbourne, Australia Excellent service. The trek was fantastic Sarba (the guide) was very helpful and very eager to offer his assistant with anything we needed. The porters (Shanker & Toya) were very helpful also. Fantastic trip & would definitely recommend Nepal Nomad to anyone who is interested in doing any Himalayan trekking. Thank you for a very memorable holiday in Nepal.

This is my first trek of my life, first time in Nepal, first time used the service of Nepal Nomad. ofcourse it ia coincidence but i can gladly say i didnt have any bad surprise.

Guide and all other services were excellent even though we have to go through tough negotations.

Honestly speaking i am more than happy to have the guide as provided by Nepal Nomad. His dedicated service really helped me to complete the whole EBc trek Successfully. 

Thanks a lot Nepal Nomad and ofcouse  sarbajit. Hope to use your service again in near future.

Cheers!!
