The 7-day trek to ABC was intense and breathtaking! From the very beginning, Tej provided all the useful information needed to prepare in the best possible way, taking care of every detail to ensure a wonderful experience. My guide, Ram, was fantastic—friendly, helpful, and managed all the organization during the trek perfectly. Highly recommended!
While writing this review, I remember how exhausted I was when I arrived at ABC Base Camp a month ago. But the next morning’s view made it all worth it—I knew I had made the right choice, trekking in winter and alone.
I decided on this trip in a hurry, so I didn’t have much time to do research. A friend who had done ABC and EBC wasn’t sure about recommending it because of the limited time and the low season. I was hesitant too, until Tej replied to my email.
I had just had time to do a brief search on Tripadvisor, picked three agencies, and wrote to them. Tej, the business manager at Alterative Treks and Expedition, was the first to respond. After two or three emails, I made my decision.
From our communication, I could tell Tej was experienced, kind, and trustworthy. He tailor-made a package based on my schedule and needs. The offer was a bit over my budget, but I accepted it—and it turned out to be worth every penny and my senses about Tej had been right.
Upon arrival, Tej met me with Raju, my guide and porter to be, a shy, young, and handsome guy. His English had room to improve, but he knew and performed his responsibilities well. He was always a step behind me, keeping me safe, securing the best rooms, arranging meals, and deciding when to start, stop, or take a break. He was kind and patient, assure me to be “Bistali, bistali” all the time. As a way of killing time, he also taught me Nepali phrases for greetings and bargaining. Raju was a guide apprentice, as Tej explained but I would say I had a wonderful time.
Next time I visit Nepal, I will definitely choose Alterative again. Tej and Raju were a real part of my trek and of my first trip to Nepal.
Mình đã có 1 trải nghiệm không thể nào quên được trong chuyến trekking ABC via Poon hill 10 ngày với Nepal alternative trek.
Từ lúc nhắn tin hỏi thông tin cho tới chốt lịch trình với Director Tej Gurung, mọi thứ đều diễn ra xuôn sẻ và chuyên nghiệp. Anh ấy giải đáp mọi thắc mắc của mình rất rõ ràng và làm mình thấy tin tưởng.
Còn kể tới chuyến hành trình thì không thể không cảm ơn anh Guide Saroj Ghale, anh ấy là một guide tận tâm và vui tính, chăm sóc chúng mình thật tốt và chúng mình đã có những lúc trò chuyện vui vẻ và cùng nhau chơi game ludo.
Cũng cảm ơn em Porter Dil, có em trong cuộc hành trình đã góp vui rất nhiều vì khiếu hài hước của em. Mặc dù công việc của em là Porter, nhưng em cũng support bạn của chị rất tốt.
Nếu bạn có ý định đi Trek ở Nepal thì không cần tìm đâu xa ngoài Nepal Alternative treks.
