β€œAn unforgettable and great experience! The weather was perfect, no cloud, best visibility. The beauty of the mountains was indescribable! The pick-up and return transport were punctual and impeccable. There was a breakfast box. The flight is operated by Dash 400 propeller machines. The complaint was that on my opposite side the window was very scratched, not good pictures. It would also be helpful if every guest gets a map of the scenery to recognize the mountains. The crew, however, made an effort to explain.”

β€œWhat a great tour/day of the 7 Unesco World Heritage sites our wonderful experienced guide Dipendra has provided our small group of 3 people! Everything was perfectly arranged from A to Z. We not only saw a lot of Kathmandu and surroundings and learned about it from Dipendra but also laughed a lot with each other which created an excellent atmosphere. Highly recommended this fantastic tour! See all 8 photos”

β€œTruly magical. We were picked up on time and taken to the airport which was the usual scrum. The flight was delayed but when we set off - WOW. The stewardesses came to each passenger to ensure we knew what we were looking at and the scenery was breathtaking. Highly recommend this trip.”

β€œI had the most incredible experience doing Poonhill - Ghorepani trek (3 days) with my guide Dinesh. I was unsure how I would go as a solo traveller but from the very start I felt supported, comfortable and extremely well looked after. The tea - houses and meals were good quality (better than I expected) and the scenery was unlike anything I’d ever encountered. Dinesh made the trip super enjoyable, fun and achievable. It makes me want to come back and do EBC! Thank you to Dinesh and HSJ for a mind blowing experience. It’s was a once in a lifetime opportunity - I am very grateful to have shared it with you.”

β€œI did the 7 UNESCO sites tour yesterday, it went form 8 am until 7 pm, but well worth it. I arranged for fees to be paid in advanced with my credit card, which saved the hassle of taking out money every stop. What really made it special was our guide, Rajan Pudasainee. The places are impressive on their own, but Rajan brought a level of insight I honestly didn’t expect. He has a rare mix of knowledge β€” history, culture, philosophy β€” and delivers it in a way that feels easy and enjoyable, not like a script. He’s genuinely funny, quick to notice what people are interested in, and has this calm, positive attitude that makes the whole day smoother. I’ve done quite a few tours in different countr”

β€œSeamless pickup, journey and hotel dropoff. I was on the left of the plane and caught a glorious view of the Himalayas on the way in. Sagarmatha itself was hidden by clouds, but was able to catch a view and photo of the world's highest peak on the way back by looking to the right. I feel it was well worth it, particularly as we had time constraints. The hostess was checking in with individuals to make sure we could identify each peak. The picture within the ticket was also very helpful for this.”

β€œI signed up the day before the event. Although I made a mistake during the registration process, the staff at the company were very flexible and accommodating, which allowed me to participate without any issues. The flight itself was absolutely excellent and beyond reproach.”

β€œThis was the most epic journey of my life. I was anxious about the whole trip, but following all instructions given by Mingmar Sherpa and Janak Dai, I completed the trek successfully without any issues. They guided us very patiently and I didn't have any trouble on the journey. I highly recommend this travel company and hope to book another trip with the same team soon. Thank you.”

β€œI had an amazing experience on my first trekking trip to Everest Base Camp with Himalayan Social Journey. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. Mingmar Dai and Janak Dai were the best guides I could have asked forβ€”professional, kind, knowledgeable, and always supportive. They made me feel safe, comfortable, and confident throughout the trek, especially as it was my first time trekking. The team took great care of us, explained everything clearly, and shared their deep knowledge of the mountains and local culture. The whole experience was unforgettable and truly exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Himalayan Social Journey to anyone planning a trek in Nepal. I will”

β€œI completed my first long trek to Everest Base Camp with HSJ and a few friends, and it was an incredible experience. Despite an unexpected storm that caused delays and reservation cancellations, the team handled everything seamlesslyβ€”quickly rebooking and securing priority accommodations with impressive calm and efficiency. Our guide, Mingmar Sherpa, was exceptionalβ€”knowledgeable, motivating, and incredibly supportiveβ€”which made the trek both enjoyable and memorable. Special thanks as well to Usha Dhakal, who did an amazing job coordinating the administrative arrangements for our Nepal and Bhutan tour, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend HSJ for a truly we”

β€œI had a wonderful experience trekking to Everest Base Camp with Himalayan Social Journey. As a first-time high-altitude trekker, the care and support I received made a huge difference. Special thanks to Mingmar Sherpa and Janak Dhai for their patience and kindness throughout the trek. They never pushed me to walk fast to keep up with others, always stayed with me, and even carried my bag on days when I was extremely tired. Because of their constant encouragement and support, I was able to complete the trek safely and successfully. Highly recommended!”

β€œGood experience-the flight was delayed by one hour but this is common in Nepal. My driver to and from the airport was on time and very nice (Prakash). The flight HR itself was great-the flight attendants go around ensuring you know which mountains are which and everyone had a window seat. Definitely had a good experience and would highly recommend as it’s a once in a lifetime one.”

β€œIt's a great experience if you don't plan to trek as the plane is the only way you will see the mountain. Be sure to get a window seat away from the prop. Several issues with the flight- expensive, plane windows are dirty, leaving spots on the pictures, if you are seated by the prop, it's not worth the trip.”

β€œWe join this tour, tour around 7 places with our amazing guide, his name is Dipendra, we have group of 3 only, so which is really good for us. They prepare for us small take away food and juice in the box. We start at 8am and finish around 4pm. Dipendra explained to us really well, with his knowledge and we really thank him. He took us to the nice place, especially there is one stop we are stop at the singing bowl, to visit them and they demonstrate us the technique and different type of singing bowl, is really amaze me! He is chatty, he spoke with my partner about cricket and etc, the only things is this trip is too short. See all 9 photos”
