We had an amazing experience with Nepal Nirvana Trails. Our guide Jangbu was a legend
himself. The tour to Annapurna base camp was affordable and we had no issues.
I highly recommend this company!

I booked the EBC-Gokyo tour with Nepal Nirvana Trails and travel from march 10th to 23rd. KP was available and providing the best advices since the very first contact. My guide, Uttar, knew the Khumbu region really well, he taught me everything about the mountains and the local culture, showed me things my eyes would not have spotted such as flora an fauna, and most importantly ensured my safety all along the trip. Trekking from 2600m to 5600m is not without risk, and that’s why having such a professional tour operator and guide is so important. Uttar and myself were joined by another person and her guide - Dipak - who changed their itinerary, and we had so much fun all along. Once in Kathmandu, KP and Uttar even had a special attention for my birthday. Everything was perfect from A to Z and I would recommend trekking with Nepal Nirvana Trails a million times.

My girlfriend and I just finished the Manaslu Circuit Trek with Nepal Nirvana Trails and the whole experience was amazing 😀

We got to know NNT after we arrived in Kathmandu and we started a dialog with KP, the agency owner, about our trekking ambitions. We found the dialog very honest and we were able to discuss all the details of the trek and have a detailed overview of what was and what was not included in the package. KP helped us with the packing list as well since we showed him what we were planning to carry on the trek and he suggested me to get an extra trouser layer for the coldest days, which I was absolutely glad to have with me the day we crossed Larke pass. Furthermore, we were able to use the agency's trekking gear that we had not carried with us from home like sleeping bag, down jacket, trekking poles and micro crampons and they organized the delivery of our extra luggage to the hotel in Pokhara, which was booked for us as well. It was really nice to not have to worry about any of these logistic issues.

But of course, what made the trek an amazing experience was the great job of both our guide "big" Raj and our porter "little" Raj.

Raj (guide) is such a friendly and easy going guy. The time on the trek flies with him since he is always ready to tell a joke and to laugh about one or explain a funny story about his previous treks 😂 Actually, he helps everyone on the trail have a good time, other trekkers, guides, porters and accommodation staff. I was sad I don't speak Nepali because I would have loved to laugh to those jokes as well! On the service side he was excellent too. He adapted to our trekking desires and needs, helped us staying healthy on the trek by recommending us what to eat and what not to eat and after dinner he would serve us apple and mandarin that he had carried all the way from Kathmandu. And he brought cookies for the tea time as well!

And our porter Raj did and excellent job as well. I cannot imagine how demanding it is to walk carrying such a load but he still was able to rush to give us a hand if someone slipped or if the trail got complicated at some point. In the evenings he would always prepare us a chair next to the heating oven or offer us his spot if no more chairs were available.

Thank you very much to both of you :)

Finally, I want to add that the Manaslu Circuit is so incredibly beautiful and I can totally recommend it to anyone thinking about trekking in Nepal.

We (my boyfriend and I) are very grateful for this experience with Nirvana Trails run by KP and family - everything was very well organized from beginning to end and we absolutely recommend this family run business. It was our first time trekking in Nepal on the Manaslu Circuit Trek and we didn’t have to worry about anything. KP sent our bags to Pokhara and organized a nice accommodation for us and he even reviewed our clothes before the trek which was very helpful to us newbies.

KP approached us in our hostel in Kathmandu and to us Europeans this direct sales pitch can be a little overwhelming as we are not used to it - in our case we are happy we listened and booked our trek with Nirvana Trails.
We compared a couple of agencies and offers in Thamel and online and lastly, we felt KP was very straight forward and honest about the package and provided excellent service - what’s included/what’s not - what is the trek like (first two days partly on the road - no big deal really) and what kind of service/accommodation to expect in the mountains.
He also educated us on what to eat on the trek to cope well with the altitude - and some dos and fonts in the villages - this was very helpful. During the trek he also reached out and proactively asked how we were doing.

The equipment we rented from Nirvana (down jacket, sleeping bag, poles, mini spikes, ) was in a perfect state and kept us warm on the trek. If he has availability KP will make sure to provide you with good gear.

On the trek, our guide Raj and our porter, also Raj, did excellent jobs and provided us with great service - we felt pampered :).
Depending on the package you book you will get tea with every meal and even some fruits which is highly appreciated after a long day of trekking.
With our guide Raj we shared a lot of laughter - he is really funny while always making sure you feel good, healthy and safe - Raj connects easily to anybody and you can hear laughter from the kitchen in the tea houses when he is around. Raj was furthermore flexible and adjusted to our wishes and explained some local customs and things about flora and fauna.

Raj, our porter, was very attentive to us as well and our bags were always ready for us when we got to the accommodations - furthermore he would fix the trail on the spot if he deemed a passage too dangerous for us to pass.

Thank you for this experience Nirvana Trails 🙏!

Last January I was traveling in Nepal. After reading positive reviews I contacted Nirvana Trekking Trails. The communication went smoothly and soon I had a conversation with KP at his office. During the conversation I had a good feeling. KP asks what your wishes and needs are and adjusts the trek accordingly.

Then KP find a suitable guide for you, who will walk the tour with you. In my case it was Jhambu, which I was very happy with. I would actually start the trekking on Saturday, but I had some stomach problems that day and I didn't feel very well. Without no problems I could start one day later, on Sunday.

Jhambu is a professional guide who makes you very comfortable. When you are exhausted (in my case often haha), he will stop and take a break.
Above all he ensures that you have the best room (with the best view) at every accommodation.
During the trekking it was my birthday! My guide arranged a birthday cake for me. Once we were at the top, several travelers sang to me and I was allowed to cut the cake. This was a really sweet gesture! Because of this I will never forget my 31st birthday :-) Thanks Jhambu!

I had a positive and wonderful experience with Nirvana Trekking Trails! I would recommend this organization to everyone. Thank you so much for everything KP & Jhambu!

Amazing Tour! We had so much fun and great moments. Jangbu is the Best guide ever! It was a perfekt organisation. I’ll come back!

I am really happy I did a trekking with Nepal Nirvana Trails. We did the Poon Hill Trek and It was really good because we had accomodation, food and transport included in the prize. One of the best things of this trek is watching the sunrise at Poon Hill, it was really nice. But the experience was really good thanks to the guide, called Resham, he was friendly, funny, nice and very professional; he gave us good information about the mountains and surroundings while we were on the way. Also, a very personalized service, walking at a suitable pace to us.
In addition, I would like to say that if I am going back to Nepal, I won't hesitate to do another trekking with Nepal Nirvana Trails.

Engaged Nepal Nirvana trails for my trek to Mardi Himal. The guide Rajendra (Raj) was extremely helpful. He communicated will even before i could get to Nepal and set everything in place. From the route planning to accommodation to food to transportation, he took care of everything. He constantly kept encouraging us during our trek and was very very supportive. This ensured we had a great time on our trek. 100% recommended. An sure other guides would be similarly good but can completely vouch for Raj and Nepal Nirvana Trails.
