Annapurna Panorama Trek Review

Excellent Poon Hill Trek

April 12, 2022

I booked Poon hill trek with Gokyo Treks & Expedition and their service is just excellent. I am a solo female traveler and I felt very safe and well taken cared of during the entire trip.

Ammar, the owner is very responsive and accommodating to all my inquiries and requests, I need not worry anything about the trip’s logistics. Som, my guide, is very dependable, knowledgeable, and speaks English really well.

Gurung, my porter, is very reliable too. I will not forget how good Nepali hospitality is, I was treated not as a client but like a family guest. I intend to return someday and will definitely book their services again. Rated 5/5!

Hello dear Risa Del Paz,

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I’m thrilled to hear that your Poon Hill trek with Gokyo Treks & Expedition was exceptional. Your safety and comfort as a solo female traveler were clearly a priority, and it’s fantastic to know that you felt well taken care of throughout the journey.

Ammar’s responsiveness and attention to detail seem to have made a significant difference in ensuring a worry-free experience for you. It’s wonderful that Som, your guide, was not just dependable and knowledgeable but also proficient in English, making communication seamless.

Gurung’s reliability as your porter and the warmth of Nepali hospitality that made you feel like part of the family truly reflect the essence of a memorable trip.

We’re delighted that you’re considering a return, and we’d be more than happy to assist you once again whenever you plan your next adventure. Your 5/5 rating means a lot to us!

Looking forward to welcoming you back, Warm regards, Ammar Raj Guni

Wonderful trip with Gokyo treks!

December 30, 2019

My best friend and I had been talking about doing a trek through the Himalayas for almost two years before we made it happen. We finally settled on Ammar’s company and don’t regret it. We had a wonderful guide named Bishnu who ended up feeling like more of a friend by the end of it and an incredibly sweet porter who’s name I feel terrible misspelling, but sounds like “Saloos”. They made our trip feel homey and comfortable, and while sometimes we had to turn down certain hikes due to physical tiredness or illness, Bishnu always found an alternative.

If we make it back to Nepal, we will be using this company again and hopefully getting to request the same guide and porter. Ammar always responded quickly through the booking process and was incredibly honest when we were issued a small refund for something we didn’t even know about! I definitely recommend this company.

Annapurna Panorama Journey with Gokyo Treks Agency.

October 29, 2019

We got a chance to know Ammar from some of our hiking friends in the Alps. Me and my wife were curious to know to visit the Annapurna mountains and for a 3 years, we were making a plan to go there.

Luckily, we got a 2 weeks holiday from our job and book the Annapurna panorama journey with Gokyo Treks and Expedition agency in Kathmandu. I thoroughly recommend them for their excellent service, genuine friendliness and hospitality and not least because of their very reasonable prices.

Ram was a fantastic guide, who runs the show, is a delightful man. He bends over backward to make sure his guests have well looked after. Nothing is too much trouble for him. Given that I had back pain problems, I had some initial concerns as to whether I could make it up the mountains, but Ram was extremely flexible with the itinerary and could modify details to suit us at the last minute. I would like to thank our guide and Dipendra our friendly porter. Ammar, the owner of the agency was super friendly and responsible all the time, and without them, we wouldn’t have made it to the Annapurna Panorama journey.

In addition, I do believe this company is considered trusted and offers cheaper treks than most others out there. Don’t hesitate to contact them for a great trip for a lifetime!

Thank you so much.

Impressive Annapurna Panorama Journey

October 29, 2019

My Travel made and I hiked the ABC trek through Gokyo Treks and it was a wonderful experience.

We were very thankful for our guide Lila, as he took great care of us. Our experience would not have been the same without him, especially as it was during monsoon season and we had to take a few detours because of rain.

Gokyo treks is a reputable and honest company, and they did everything they could to make our trip the best possible. I would highly recommend!
