This is one of the most enjoyable life time experience. Thank you for Imperial for making my journey to EBC such wonderful experience. Nutthawut O Verified Trip Advisor Review

We had all the inhibitions of choosing a local Nepali trekking company for our Everest high passes trip in the start. And Imperial Nepal was way beyond our expectations. We received a warm welcome in Kathmandu by Ram who also went through in great detail about each day in our trip and what to expect. Once in Lukla we were met by two porters who were super friendly and always tried to keep us at ease even with their limited English conversing skills. They were a great help on the days we had to cross the high passes. We could go to all the places we planned like Gokyo lake, Kalapathar, Cho La pass, EBC. We had a friendly guide who knew about the region very well and took us to many local places to sample authentic Nepali food. We couldn't have asked for a better first introduction to Himalayas thanks to Imperial Nepal and their team.

I booked my trek through their website. They took care of everything from picking me up at the Kathmandu airport to dropping me off at the end of my trip. Hotels were booked and bus tickets arranged. My guide took care of everything during the trek, except for the clouds at ABC! He managed rooms and meals along the way, and arranged for a fruit plate after each meal. The only thing I could have asked for was more time to take a longer trek. The price was extremely reasonable. I highly recommend using Imperial Nepal Trekking if you are in Nepal.

After much research my wife and I found Imperial Nepal to be the best value on the market. The service they offered was fantastic, from the very first day of our EBC trek, to the last. Paras replied to our every query instantly and Sujan was an excellent guide. If I was lucky enough to go back to Nepal, I wouldn't even consider another agency.

I booked a trek through Paras with Imperial Trek Nepal over the internet to trek in the Everest region. They were a great choice as they met us at the airport and organised everything including our accommodation, hire stuff and a day tour around Kathmandu. Hari our guide was fantastic, a lot of fun and looked after us very well in the mountains. On our return to Kathmandu Paras also organised a trip for us to the Royal Chitwan National Park and Pokhara. I'd highly recommend Imperial Trek and you won't go wrong with Hari as your guide.

I organised a trek via Imperial Nepal when I was Kathmandu. After agreeing everything I wanted from a trek, they quickly began getting everything ready, and it was under 24 hours before we set off. I wanted to hike to Everest Region from Jiri, which is a 7-8 day walk, and continue up to Gokyo Ri rather than EBC. I don't think this is a particularly common route, but everything was organised perfectly. My guide, Dinesh, was very knowledgeable, and was a lot of fun to hang around in the evenings. The actual trek was superb, a combination of the fantastic weather and incredible views. I am sure that I would have enjoyed this has I taken on the responsibility of doing it all myself, but it was nice to be able to focus entirely on having fun while Imperial dealt with the logistics.

I organised my trek through imperial nepal from the uk. I can say that I'm very glad I did. I was met at the airport in Kathmandu and brought to a good hotel in Thamel by private car. I was met by Ram at the hotel who explained the trip in detail to me and what the plan was for the next few weeks. Ram even took me to get a simcard In my phone which cost in total npr 1700 for 3gb of data which kept me in contact with home for all of my time in nepal. I stayed in the best rooms in Kathmandu and Pockara. Before the trek I met Sujan my guide before the trek we had dinner in Kathmandu to enjoy some Nepali food and traditional dancing we also had time to discuss the trek. I went to ABC I had Sujan as my guide and a porter in adition. I was served fresh fruit every day all meals and coffee tea was paid for I could choose anything from the menus on the treks I was served by Sujan very, very well. I chose to drive back to kathmandu by private car which was also very good after the trek. I can not say enough good things. Everything was well organised and paid for there were no hidden charges. Ram is very good at organising custom trips. Sujan my guide was top class my porter was strong and pleasant. I was made to feel special by imperial nepal and they made my trip to Nepal organised and structured but with the ability to adapt and do other things when I wanted. I would definitely recommend this company to my friends and family. John Carson United Kingdom Visited: March 2016 Trip Advisor Verified Review

This is a great choice for time-limited people who want to see a lot of Nepal in a short time. Very easy to do extra or change things (we opted out of riding on elephants in Chitwan due to environmental concerns, and very easily swapped onto a jeep safari and canoe ride instead), canyoning is included but you can add a bungee jump (it's very cheap compared to aussie prices!) and although the itinerary takes you to Poon Hill for sunrise, you can also climb up the night before for sunset if you're feeling really energetic and want to see the view twice! Sujan our guide was friendly and patient, highly recommend. This is an easy trek for experienced hikers but there is not much flat terrain - it is up and down most of the 6 day trek, but totally doable for people of average fitness. We went just before the start of 'peak season' so most of our hotels were quiet, and they were great. Ram (the trek coordinator i think?) was careful to remind us that the hotels on the trek were not the same standard as in the cities, but we had no problem with any of them. Clean and private, and most of them had private bathrooms too! Highly recommend buying toilet paper or tissues before the trek and carry it everywhere! Always keep some tissues in your pocket just in case - no bathrooms will supply them. One other thing I will mention is that tipping is accepted and expected. As Australians we don't have much experience with this, but be aware before you go somewhere so you can keep some money on you for guides and porters. Food was delicious everywhere but you will find it difficult to get an authentic Nepalese meal! Most dishes will come out without any chilli (even the curries!) so ask for spice if you want it (especially on your trek!) Dahl Bhat is available everywhere and you should definitely try it a few times. It will usually be the provided meal if your itinerary says "meal included".

My experience with Imperial Nepal was just excellent. The people were extremely helpful in every way possible - from organising the tour to assisting with buying/renting the right trekking gear. My trip couldn't have been better. If you book with Imperial Nepal make sure you'll ask for Harri as your guide - he's the best. Harri makes sure you're alright all the time and he makes sure you've got the best time. He's choosing great teahouses with the best rooms within for you, he gives tipps for what better not to eat, makes sure you're healthy. What I really enjoyed was Harri teaching me some words of the Nepali language. He taught us the Nepali game and we taught him how to play UNO - you've never seen a guy as happy as him while playing cards. To make a long story short; he's the best guide and as a trip depends a lot on you're guide as well it's the best decision to choose Harri. Thanks Imperial Nepal for this unforgettable trip!

We had a private 4-day Poonhill trek with Imperial Nepal Treks. The trek is not really hard for an experienced hiker. The lodges were good with private bathrooms, the local Nepalese people who run the lodges are really nice and the food is good. Our trip in Poonhill and the hotel in Kathmandu was organized well by Paras! We changed our trip at the last minute this was no problem for Paras.

My friend Robert and I traveled through Nepal for one month. Right after arriving at our hotel in Kathmandu we arranged our two-week during trek to Everest Base Camp and Kala Patthar, organized by Imperial Nepal Treks. After having checked our backpacks we flew to Lukla airport where our guide, Hari, awaited us. I would definitely ask for Hari since he really enriched our trekking experience: he finds the best places for food/accommodation and takes really good care of you! He and the tour operator were also very flexible when we wanted to change something in the itinerary during our trek. In other words, it was a great experience!

We had the best time on our visit to Annapurna. Sujan our guide became our friend over the 4 days. He was endlessly patient (particularly when I was very slow at some of the up hill sections!) and very knowledgable about the area. He looked after us and made sure our experience was the best it could be. We would very much recommend Imperial Nepal Treks to anyone wishing to experience the Annapurna region Many thanks again Miranda and Max Weaver
