Our 12-days Manaslu Trek in April 2023 was an unforgettable adventure. We walked through a wide range of landscapes up to the Larke Pass at 5100 meter. For me the hike was challenging, it requires a good fitness, but the rewards are high with all the beautiful mountain views and the cultural experiences in almost medieval villages. The tour operator and our guide did a great job and arranged everything perfectly. I can really recommend this trip.

I was very happy. Going to Mt E Base camp was tough and KP and his team, Bahrais, Artha, Dill, Sapta, Santos abd Lakpha busted thier back, literally and figuratively, to get us up the mountain. KP worked hard to resolve all challenges, which is often the case hiking high altitude in the Himalayas. KP got us in and out of Lukla like clock work as he knows all the pilots. (Seriously that alone was a huge benefit of working with KP) KP also organized our travel and tours throughout Kathmandu, Chitwan, and Pokhara he even gave us personal tour. Prices were very reasonable and the service was outstanding.

Absolutely amazing experience with Nepal Nirvana Trails. KP, Bhairas and Ata, all were the most amazing team that were very attentive, knowledgeable and well connected.
I will definitely connect and travel with them again.

YOU DESERVE EVERYTHING
This is my true thought after I experience this trekking agency - only one in a million. To be more specific, I am some of the tourists that have an opportunity to experience more than 1 agency in Nepal trekking industry and I have to admit that Nepal Nirvana is the most special and credible one for me.
I just finished my ABC trekking tour in May. My tour was liked a private tour, only me and my wife. We have very difficult requirements for the agency and guide because my wife just went through a knee ligament surgery 11 months ago. So then in this tour, we need extra care service and the tour guide also have to be flexible and be ready for any circumstances that may happen. And Nepal Nivarna really won our heart in the most impressive way. From Mr. KP - the big boss, who is the manager, he took care of us from the day we arrived to the day we departed, the warm atmosphere, the friendly dinner, the daily message that he shows the care for us. He is a master guide with many experience and now become the big boss who can manage everything, from the small group/private tour to a big group.
And that’s not all. Here comes the best guide, my biggest brother Dipak Bhatta - the tour guide that showed us what is the real professional trekking guide is. My brother Dipak took care me and my wife at every single details, the steps, the breath, the water, the sleep, the meal and most of all the safety of the whole trip. As this is my 2nd ABC trip, Dipak really show his outstanding profession and experience in all kinds of trekking conditions and what he can do in all kinds of emergency situation. In this trekking route, myself 2 times face the very difficult situation because of the unexpected reason and my brother Dipak solved them all in the most perfect way. There is not a chance that Dipak make us unsatisfied during the whole trip. More than just a trekking guide, Dipak is like my big brother.
If you have any doubt or hesitation in the proper trekking agency/guide in Nepal, Nepal Nivarna is diffenitely the best answer for you. KP the big boss and my brother Dipak can always be the greatest Nepali guard for you.

Eine seeehr kurzfristige Entscheidung nach Nepal zu fliegen & Kanchenjunga Trek zu machen (- Feedback über Nacht
- Angebot & Vorschläge innerhalb von paar Stunden
- Selbst auf Flugänderung ohne Probleme reagiert und die Tour leicht verschoben

Ohne Probleme wurde alles abgewickelt und Bhim - THE GUIDE - stand bereit. Tag Zwei nach der Landung in Kathmandu gings bereits los. Ich hatte eine fantastische Zeit - der Trek bietet alles und reflektiert den puren Reiz von Nepal & Himalaya.

Ich war mehrmals in Nepal, aber diese Tour war wirklich was besonderes. Bhim sorgte stets dafür, das es mir an Nichs fehlte. Wir blieben flexibel und haben - mal wetterbedingt, mal durch unser Tempo - den Zeitplan um zwei Tage überholt. Die Tour war wirklich ein Erlebnis - auch weil die Natur mal die positiven mal negativen Seiten zeigte.

Zum Abschluss gab es noch einen schönen Abend mit KP (und die Erkenntnis das nach einer Tour zwei Gorkha Strong Beers echt reinfahren).

Wer nicht nur Preis und Service - und die stimmen hier absolut - sondern auch dieses kleine etwas "Mehr" sucht ist hier richtig. Gefühl trügt hier nicht - gerne nochmal, wenn ich mich mal wieder im Himalaya von der Welt abkoppeln möchte.
Bhim - you and me.. next time again :-)

5* experience with KP and his team for climbing Island Peak. His organisation, communication and kindness was outstanding. Our 2 climbing guides were highly experienced and took great care of us. Thank you KP & family, we look forward to meeting you again in the future!

TRIP: 21 Day trek of the Kanchenjunga Circuit to North and South Base Camp
DATES: April 16 - May 8, 2023
Guide: Mr. Jangbu Sherpa
Porter: Mr. Karma Sherpa

This trip of a lifetime was the best we could have ever hoped for! From start to finish, Nepal Nirvana Trails offered the most exquisite service that far surpassed our expectations. KP was extremely helpful with all emails during the planning stages and was patient and kind, and promptly answered any questions I had. Upon arrival, we were greeted at the airport by Bishal and Jangbu, our soon to be guide whom we would be spending the next three weeks with. On departure day, our guide met us to take us to the domestic airport, and from then onwards, everything was in Jangbu's expert hands. We felt safe, happy, and well taken care of during our adventure. (And we saw the top of Everest from the flight!)

To say the area we went to was "remote" would be an understatement. Flights, tuk tuks, jeeps, and days of walking after the roads finished, as just the "start". If you're looking for a very off the beaten track, away from the tourists, and diving into the full cultural experience of Nepal, living like a local, meeting mule and yak-cow shepherds and local families type of experience, this is the best choice. Don't expect Wi-Fi, much electricity, or many other tourists, but I think the people we met on the trip were looking for just that, to get away and really experience the great outdoors and the untouched beauty of the Himalayas.

Throughout the trip, the views were absolutely stunning. We walked over numerous suspension bridges, through rhododendron forests, passed temples and monasteries, and even got to walk within a 40-strong mule herd along a large section of trail (until they just were too fast for us). Of all the gorgeous mountains we saw, we were repeatedly told they were just "hills", laughing because of course they would be the highest mountain in all of the UK and much of Europe if we were back home. Ok Jangbu...we will keep waiting for "mountains". ;-)

Guide Jangbu, and our porter Karma were the absolute dream team. They worked so hard, were so happy and delightful at all times, and Jangbu was by far the most experienced of many of the other guides we met along the path, as some tourists had guides that had never even been over in this area before. They kept us remarkably well fed with delicious local meals of Dahl bat, momos, Thukpa, Sherpa Stew, as well as carrying and providing daily biscuits and fruit that was such a treat. We were so lucky and happy to have our team.

There were days that were easier than others, but every day was an amazing adventure, and very doable for anyone that is reasonably fit and motivated. The spacing between the teahouses allowed us to walk for the first half of the day, and then be able to relax in the teahouses with lots of tea and delicious food for the second half of the day. We recommend taking a small notebook to pass the afternoons writing down memories from the day, as well as any of the local recipes you can manage to watch when the ladies are making Nepali delicacies on the open fires/stoves.

When we finally got to Pangpema - North Base Camp, we were awarded with amazing views of Kanchenjunga - the 3rd tallest mountain in the world. What an unbelievable experience!

We carried on back down the route we came, then over a high pass - Selele Pass, and then back up again towards South Base Camp for another view of Kanchenjunga.

Upon return to Kathmandu, KP treated us to a lovely farewell dinner, and before we finally departed, he managed to see us off with lovely local gifts from Nepal. From start to finish, this company absolutely took care of everything. For the price for the trip, and the service we received, I would certainly say they are one of the best choices of companies in Nepal. We will be back! Highly recommended.

We took the Kanchenjunga circuit trek with Nepal Nirvana Trails, from start to finish the trip was in every way AMAZING. Our guide and porter, Jangbu & Karma sherpa were really fantastic. They were always on top form helping us along the way and generally being excellent company.

The trip was planned to perfection, from leaving Kathmandu we had no issues at all. KP (the owner) had kept us in the loop throughout the booking process so we knew exactly what to expect, he answered any questions we had beforehand and then gave us an excellent briefing on arrival in Kathmandu.

I would highly reccommend this trip to anyone wanting a true trekking adventure in Nepal. When we come back for our next trip we will definitely be using Nepal Nirvana Trails again.
