An unforgettable experience - made friends for life This was by far and away one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. If I’m honest, I don’t think it would’ve been quite the same trip if it wasn’t for Rajan & his team at Namaste Nepal Trekking & Research Hub. Not only is everything so well planned and prepared but the kind, caring and thoughtful nature of Rajan and our porter Prakash made our trip extra special. We bonded with both of these guys, forming a strong fun team, even when our trek ended we arranged to spend more time with them after as we had so much fun. Every day was both a different challenge and a new route. With stunning views and well-planned pacing - we got to make the most out of every day and never felt too exhausted, thanks to Rajan’s unique knowledge of the mountains. Only on the last 2 days out of 10 do you walk back the way you came. I couldn’t recommend it more if you’re to book a trekking guide this is the place to do it.

This trek was outstanding & has provided some of my best-ever traveling memories. We managed to secure Rajan as our guide, the man behind the genius machine that is Namaste Trekking & he was a complete delight. Along with his partner in crime & fellow mountaineering sidekick Prakash, my friend & I had a experience of a lifetime trekking to Annapurna Base Camp. Rajan’s English was immaculate & provided fascinating knowledge of Nepal & the history of the Himalayas. Along with being well-humored, thoughtful & caring he would always have our needs & concerns met in an effortlessly laid-back manner. Rajan arranged all travel, permits & accommodation for us & was able to give us some excellent recommendations of Nepal for the rest of our trip. I cannot wait to book my next trek with Rajan.

We had an absolutely incredible time using Rajan and his company Namaste Nepal Trekking. He provided us with Shankar as a guide who spoke perfect English, was delightfully charming, and was highly knowledgeable about Nepal and the different ethnic group's residing in the Langtang valley. Rajan was in constant contact throughout the expedition tending to our every need and even took us out for dinner on our return to Kathmandu to hear our stories. Rajan and Shankar have great contacts with local families on the trail so each family we stayed with was warm and looked after us so well. I'm sure everyone is biased about their own trekking guides but I really could not recommend these guys any higher.

This was the single best trip of my life. A friend and I were recommended the company, and upon making contact they provided a couple of trekking options that fitted both our budged and timeframe. Besides the trekking itself, which needs no description (there is a reason trekking in Nepal is so popular), our guide Shankar was an utter joy, he literally sorted everything for us whilst out on the mountains and he was very charming and also got completely involved in our card games every night. I could not recommend using Namaste trekking more! Rajan, who runs the company, is also lovely and a very interesting guy. We have already started saving up for our next trip to Nepal and will be certainly using Namaste Trekking.
