Nepal is a superb destination for trekkers, as this small country offers countless possibilities, from gentle and easy country walks to long, challenging routes through remote alpine areas.
And while Nepal is well-known as home to 8 of the world’s highest mountains, including Mt Everest, she is also home to stunning rice terraces, exquisite rhododendron forests and amazing wildflowers in the spring. Whatever your taste, you will find something here that suits.
While you may come for the mountains, you will soon find that trekking in Nepal is as much a cultural experience as a Himalayan adventure.

Raj has been a great guide, he ensures that his customers are well taken care of, he sees to all of the details allowing you to focus on enjoying the trek. His experience and leadership were evident throughout the trek and along with his easy going nature made my trip to Nepal truly memorable. I would definitely recommend Raj as a guide and will rehire him for future trips. I definitely plan to return soon to Nepal.

Circuit Annapurna Trekking
I cannot speak higher of any travel guide in Nepal than Rajan Dhungana. I went there alone in 2008 alone and was very relieved that my guide was so trustworthy. He made me feel comfortable and safe and we always had a great time. He always kept our safety and health in mind which is really important, especially when you in remote areas at high altitude. He made the extra effort to make the whole trek extra special and I left Nepal with a new friend and a great impression of the place as a whole. I did the trek with a few other people and they were so impressed with Rajan that they were really jealous of me. They ended up going back to Nepal with Rajan instead of the guides they had on the first trip. Thanks Raj!
