Reviews and Testimonials

I started planing my trek to ABC well in advance, around September 2018, thinking to continue towards Mustang area after coming down from the ABC trek.

Ammar Raj was very helpful during the preparation stage of the trek, suggesting from the beginning that my travel dates (mid March to Early April), were not optimal for getting to ABC. Closer to my travel, and knowing snow conditions close to ABC Amar Raj suggested that I change my plans to Mardi Himal trek.

Upon my arrival to Kathmandu, Ammar invited me to spend the night at a guest room in his house, allowing me a glimpse at the daily life of Nepali people. I had a great evening having supper with his family, learning about life in Nepal.

My trek guide/porter was Lila Bahadur Tamang. Speaking good English, he was able to explain me many aspects of sights we saw during the hike. He was very supportive, had great knowledge of the trails, and very accommodating to changes in the hike plan. I eventually decided to try going to the ABC, even knowing that it may not be possible to get to the camp itself. We got to Hinku cave and decided it may not be safe enough to continue.

Again I wish to thank Ammar Raj, his team and my Guide Lila for a great vacation.

I have done a trek in the langtang valley with them. They are just amazing, if I will come back to Nepal I will surely choose the same company.

We have contacted Gokyo Treks and Expeditions via E-Mail to book a porterguide, in order to help my mother carrying her gear.

The contact to Ammar from Gokyo Treks and Expeditions via WhatsApp have been very helpful and professional. He booked us a porterguide and managed our TIMS and Annapurna Conservation Permits. When we met him in kathmandu to sort out final details he was very nice and organized.

Our trip turned out great, our Porterguide was excellent and very attentive.

In conclusion: I would book again with Gokyo Treks and Expeditions if we come back to Nepal and would recommend it to anyone without hesitation.

Thanks Ammar and Nagendra for this awesome experience!

My adult son and I just finished (April 20-26) our trek with this company. I cannot say enough good things about them. Ammar, the owner, responded very quickly to my initial inquiry and from that moment forward he was very helpful and responsive to all of my questions. He coordinated all of our transportation and lodging from the moment of arrival at the airport. Our guide, Ram, met me at the airport and rescued me from the chaos of Kathmandu.

The trek itself was simply amazing. I will carry this experience with me for the rest of my life. The culture and scenery of the Annapurna region are unlike anything I have ever seen. Our guide was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions about the trek as well as Nepali life, in general.

Our porter, Dependra, was also fantastic. If you are considering trekking in Nepal you simply cannot go wrong by choosing Gokyo Treks and Expeditions. The entire staff is supremely professional, friendly and competent. They are wonderful ambassadors for the trekking industry and for Nepal.

Dhanyabad, Gokyo Treks and Expeditions!

Gokyo Treks was really affordable and easy to liaise with. We texted Ammar on a regular basis prior to the trip to clarify details, and he was always very responsive.

The guides and porters catered to our needs and the side treks that we wanted to go for, but they were also wary about our safety and were honest with the risks involved. The guides took good care of our meals and made sure we were well enough when we fell ill from the cold and AMS. They were really awesome! Thank you Bishnu, Sabin, and Bir. Highly recommend!
