Our experience was Amazing. We are two young Danish guys and everything was good for us. Especially our guide Arjun Khanal was excellent, he really lifted our trip. The rafting part was the only thing that dissapointed, but that was because it was off season. So to very content Danish Boys.

The trip was excellent. We really enjoyed our time with our guide Jwalo. He was knowledgeable and friendly. The only one accident was that I forgot to send our hotel name until the night we were due to meet our guide before we went on our trip. I would suggest more reminders be sent to the tourists so they send their information.
