Thank you very much for the fantastic trip to the Langtang Area. A very peaceful and beautiful place. All the effort was worth it, even the pains. We would recommend it to anyone that has a bit of hiking experience. A special thank you to our wonderful and friendly guide, Surya, who was very friendly and helpful. We always felt sure wherever he guided us. Same counts for our strong back, a. k. a porter, Ram Babu. With great fun and pleasure.
Shailesh took us on a wonderful trek to the Langatng Valley. He was a brilliant guide, took great care of us and lead a superb sense of humour. The Langtang Valley was harder walk even expected but a beautiful place. Thank you Shailesh, you are one in a million!

Dear Nava, First of all thank you for excellent trekking in Langtang Valley that I did at the end of October with your agency (after fifteen years!). It has been a really pleasure going the same places I have been years ago. As going with you was purely coincidence, it turned out as good as it can get. Because of that I am really sorry that I was not able to come to your office to thank you. However, the trek was perfect for me not just because of Langtang and beautiful weather, but also because of the guide that was with me. Ratna Prasad was perfect for me not just because we are almost the same age, but also because he is very experienced, helpful and, for me very important reason, very careful and not the type that needs a lot of talking/words to be understood. Through the entire trek we had a good time and not a single problem.We did everything I wanted, walk a lot places I did not see for the first time and did a lot of by pass roads that were on my wish list. Please tell him how happy I am with his work. He is real a cool guy! Hope to see you next year, if not for sure in two years time! Hope will do some trekking with your agency as soon as possible! Regards
