Alpine Club of Himalaya is the best corporate travel agent I have ever worked with in Nepal. From a customer experience perspective, their service is superlative. I had done my Gokyo Lake Trek last week, and they are the most responsive agent they made every transaction 100% hassle-free. Highly Recommended ACH.

14-Apr-2023

Just returned to Seoul after 14day Annapurna sanctuary trek. The trekking was fantastic and Sujan well organized everything for us and we could enjoy the trekking. It was once in a life time experience for me and Sujan arranged experienced sherpa and porter who made our trekking more enjoyable. I am 70 and worried about this challenging trekking and Sujan said to me that “age is only a number” and he helped me to do this trekking. Sujan is a really professional who can make the trekking more enjoyable and safe. I found that his main concern was customers’ safety and satisfaction. I definitely return to Nepal for next trip and thanks Sujan and Pasang our sherpa.

23-Oct-2023

The trip was amazing, well worth taking. It was very well organised, the company even provided sleeping bags and duffel jackets which came in handy when it snowed at basecamp. Our guide and porter were knowledgeable and friendly, we were in excellent hands with them. If you’re considering a trek that isn’t too long but has excellent views nonetheless, go on this one.

04-Apr-2024

My dad and I took a trip to Gokyo Valley (Gokyo Ri) with Sujan’s company, and we enjoyed every minute of it. He always replied incredibly fast and had an answer to all our countless questions. We felt very welcome when we arrived in Nepal; from the nice little welcome gift to the dinner together on our first evening, it was all very well organized and enjoyable. We were very grateful for their flexibility, as we changed our plans from EBC to Gokyo on fairly short notice, and it was no problem at all. Overall, we will definitely recommend the company to friends and family. The price-value ratio is absolutely fair, and all the people we were in touch with, like our guide, porter, and Sujan, were incredibly friendly and took good care of us. Thank you so much for all these amazing memories we will take back home!

23-May-2023

An accidental item sparked a desire to make an old dream a reality. Some YouTube videos and Google insights give me hope. I decided to give it a try and started from scratch. I set course to Nepal from Mumbai on March 24th 2023. Alpine club was the doorway to walk from my dream to a reality. The team was exceptionally good with planning. The best part is they are always there to help when you need it but they are not pampering or pulling you to be in the line you are free to explore on your own. They give you information about everything you need to know. From the beginning of the trip the excitement was great.. There were old geysers from all over the world with incredible stories.. there were youngsters with their dashing and brisk moves.. there were middle aged crowds making the most from their limited days' vacations.. there where animals who were beaten pushed or guided to walk the trail with cargos.. there were monks walking with the same pace ignoring the uphill and downhill.. there were children who were running hopping or even dancing the path progressing towards the same destination.. The beauty of the journey was multiplied day by day so was the hardship.. from lush green to enchanting milky white the views were breathtaking; the altitude took the comment so seriously and eventually took the breath from a few! I started with walking an hour then resting for a few minutes to the end of the journey it was reversed to a minute of walk and rest till I am able to move..! I completed what I started with a real smile...
