Reviews and Testimonials

This past May (2016) I completed the Annapurna Circuit in 15 days, largely thanks to the guiding services provided by Gokyo Treks and Expedition. At the start of my trip, I had planned to hike Manaslu but due to an illness with my trekking partner, I had to change plans last minute. Fortunately, Ammar (owner of Gokyo) was able to help me and provide info, which ultimately led to me choosing Annapurna. During my 2 days in Kathmandu, Ammar and his family also provided a very nice and convenient homestay while helping me prepare for my trek (buying jackets, etc.).

The trek itself was everything I had imagined and more – my guide, Kamal (KC) was helpful and knowledgeable. He knew the best routes to take and provided me assurance, help, and motivation when necessary (i.e. when I had some stomach issues). KC was also more than just a guide – by the end, he became a friend. He’s somebody I felt very comfortable around, and kept things interesting. I’d highly recommend not only Gokyo Treks but also KC as a guide. Additionally, the prices offered by Gokyo were the best I could find when compared to several other agencies. Finally, the services Gokyo provides to the community (schools, tutoring, etc) made it a no-brainer to choose them. Hopefully, this review will help others make their decision – having an experienced guide made everything so much easier (knowing what lodging, food places, etc.)

We booked a Bhutan tour with Gokyo Treks Agency. Our Guide Miss Geeta a local representative organized our 4 days glimpse of the Bhutan Tour in an excellent way. Our cook Sonam and his entire kitchen staffs were just friendly and friendly staff is highly appreciated. Miss you all, will definitely explore more Bhutan tours with your awesome team. Thank you for giving us memorable hospitality in Bhutan.

We have done 2 treks with Ammar and his crew. Our guide, Som, was fantastic and the porters were happy and reliable. Ammar is great to deal with. We are coming again next year and will use Gokyo Treks. Dr Rob H Australia

Professional cook Kamal and other entire camping crew members were great. We started our journey by flying to Tumlingtar airport and finished at Lukla airport.
