Thank God for this amazing trip, the Himalayan Masters crew were so good, especially Sandy. He leads the trip passionately and makes all of us enjoy it. The leader’s skill & the knowledge he got just completed the puzzle.

And not to forget the team he got, the guide, and the porters. They were so helpful to us along the journey. PK, Ram, Binot, Robi, Niken, Suleman, & Elia were amazing guys.

I hope he can learn from his mistakes & makes an improvement in the future.. good luck to you brother

Unforgettable journeyIndonesia 🇮🇩

A review of our trip to the Everest view hotel with our guide Pasang. Me and my mom really enjoyed our time with him. He was very flexible and kind. He was able to change our schedule to our liking and capabilities. He was a knowledgeable guide and kept us informed and safe throughout our trek. He was a good leader and worked well coordinating our porter too. He even carried our stuff towards the end when the days got long and our legs were tired.
My favourite part of his guide was that he was relatable and he was down to earth. I would really recommend him for other tours. He is a really good addition to Himalayan masters

My name is Julia Wijaya from Indonesia, I went to Annapurna Circuit and 1D city tour (Bhaktapur and Kathmandu) on May 12 – 22 May 2023 with Sandip and Pradip as a guide and 6 porters (Robi, Elia, Suleman, Nikesh, Binot, Ram) so AMAZING I feel so blessed and grateful to have them. They always support & taking care of me in every detail and give me positive vibes. Especially when one of our members almost die because of altitude sickness, Sandip and all of the porters work so hard to take him down even though I know they are so tired but still put smiles on and good vibes.
The view of Annapurna is amazing especially when we take the upper road from Upper Pisang to Manang, thank you for letting us have a choice. Finally 9 from 11 people successful reach Thorong La.

About the accommodation is good, clean, comfortable, good food (you can choose anything you want) and very very good service from Pradhip and crew.
for transport, we choose to have a “Private Jeep” from Kathmandu to Chame and Mukhtinah to Pokhara and last day we take a “Tourist Bus” from Pokhara to Kathmandu.

This experience was worth the cost !!
I highly recommend Himalayan Masters because He is professional and passionate about the mountain. This trip was incredible 🙂 Thanks to everyone who made possible this unforgettable experience, I can’t make it without you guys!
This is my first time going to Nepal but not my last time 😎.

Incredibile Annapurna Circuit TrekIndonesia 🇮🇩

I recently had the privilege of embarking on a breathtaking hiking expedition in Nepal, and I can confidently say that it was an experience of a lifetime. What made this journey truly extraordinary was the exceptional guidance and expertise provided by our hiking guide, Dipak. His commitment to ensuring our safety, enhancing our understanding of the region, and creating unforgettable memories was truly unparalleled. I cannot recommend them highly enough!
From the moment we met Dipak, it was evident that he had a deep knowledge and passion for the Nepalese Himalayas. His wealth of experience shone through as he expertly navigated the trails, leading our group with confidence and skill. He effortlessly tailored the pace and difficulty of the hikes to accommodate everyone’s abilities, ensuring that each member of our group felt included and challenged in the best possible way.
One aspect that truly impressed me was the commitment to our safety. From carrying essential safety equipment to consistently checking weather conditions, Dipak left no stone unturned. His meticulous attention to detail and unwavering focus on ensuring our well-being gave us peace of mind throughout the entire journey. I truly appreciated his ability to strike a perfect balance between adventure and caution.
Beyond professionalism, Dipak’s genuine enthusiasm for the region and its rich cultural heritage was infectious. His deep respect for the local communities and efforts to engage us in meaningful interactions with the locals added an invaluable layer of authenticity to our experience.
In addition to his expertise and passion, Dipak’s exceptional organisational skills ensured that every logistical aspect of the trip ran smoothly. From arranging the most comfortable accommodations to coordinating meals and transportation, he handled every detail with remarkable efficiency, leaving us with nothing to worry about except immersing ourselves in the stunning beauty that surrounded us.
Finally, I must mention the unforgettable moments of natural splendour our guide helped us discover. Dipak’s intimate knowledge of the best viewpoints and hidden gems allowed us to witness Nepal’s awe-inspiring landscapes in all their glory.
In conclusion, hiking in Nepal with Dipak, and our porters, Sujan and Santos, was an absolute privilege. Their professionalism, expertise, and genuine passion for the region made this adventure an experience I will cherish for a lifetime. If you’re considering a hiking expedition in Nepal and want a guide who will go above and beyond to ensure an unforgettable journey, I wholeheartedly recommend Dipak. Trust me; you won’t be disappointed!
Thank you, Dipak, for sharing your remarkable knowledge, skills, and love for Nepal with us. You truly made our hiking expedition an extraordinary and unforgettable adventure.

An Unforgettable Adventure: Hiking in Nepal with an Exceptional GuideAustralia 🇦🇺

I’ve visited Nepal several times and have to say the trek with Himalayan Masters was the best experience I’ve had with trekking companies in Nepal. Very professional staff, from the organisers to guides to porters. Sandip organised our Manaslu Circuit trek which was such a great experience and really went out of his way to make sure we had a great time in the mountains. Our guide Surje was really helpful and kind, and overall would highly recommend Himalayan Masters to anyone looking for a reliable trekking company for any of the awesome trips throughout the country and beyond- you won’t regret it!

Easily the best adventure company in Nepal!Australia 🇦🇺

Wir haben bei Himalayan Masters aufgrund der guten Bewertungen bei Tripadvisor einen Trek ins Langtang Valley mit der Yala Peak Besteigung angefragt, nachdem wir mit einer vorherigen Organisation nicht zufrieden waren.

Von der ersten Kontaktaufnahme hat alles ausgezeichnet funktioniert und selbst kurzfristige Änderungen der Teilnehmer wurde von Sandip problemlos gemanagt. Auch unvorhergesehene Änderungen des Treks aufgrund des Wetters wurden innerhalb kürzester Zeit nach unseren Wünschen berücksichtigt.

Unser Guide Dipak hat die ganze Zeit eine super Betreuung übernommen und hat die Wanderung mit interessanten Informationen angereichert. Man hat sich die ganze Zeit absolut sicher gefühlt und man konnte die nepalesische Gastfreundschaft immer spüren.

Auch für die Organisationen von etwas sightseeing und einer Food-Tour in KTM standen Sandip und Dipak zur Verfügung- und das alles zu angemessen Preisen.

Ich würde Himalayan Masters bedenkenlos Freunden empfehlen, wenn Sie eine Tour nach Nepal planen!

Top Erfahrung von Anfang bis EndeGermany 🇩🇪🇩🇪

in Nepal mit Himalayan Masters zu buchen. Unser Ziel war der Langtang Trek mit anschließender Besteigung des Ayala Peaks.
Bei dieser Organisation ist das ein Rund-Um-Sorglos Paket. Sandip, der erfahrene Hauptverantwortliche von Himalayan Masters kümmert sich um alle Bedürfnisse seiner Kunden. Alle Planung, von Unterkünften über Autofahrten bis Mittagessen, hat die Organisation sehr zufriedenstellend übernommen.
Für den in jeder Hinsicht beeindruckenden Langtang Trek wurde uns der Guide Dipak zur Verfügung gestellt. Er kennt sich nicht nur auf den Treks super aus und hat Wissen über die Region sondern ist auch ein sehr netter und unkomplizierter Zeitgenosse. Wir haben die Zeit mit Ihm und den ganzen Trek sehr genossen, obwohl wir den Yala Peak aufgrund eines unerwarteten Schneesturms nicht erreichen konnten.
Für den ersten Trek haben wir uns auch dazu entscheiden Träger für den Großteil unserer Sachen zu buchen, die waren auch sehr nett.
Danach haben wir noch unerwartet einige Tage in Kathmandu verbracht, deren Planung (mit Wünschen von uns) auch Himalayan master sehr zufriedenstellend übernommen hat!
Ich kann nur sagen, dass ich mir meine nächste Erfahrung im Himalaya nicht ohne Himalayan Masters vorstellen kann.

In jeder Hinsicht top Organisation mit super Ansprechpartnern/ GuidesGermany

We recently completed the Langtang Valley trek with Himalayan Masters.
Communication before the trip was excellent – we were able to adapt our itinerary as required and Sandip was always quick to respond to any questions.
Transfers were all smooth and arrangements in Kathmandu were faultless,
The trek itself was superb. Rishi, our guide, was excellent – not only was his English perfect, but he was extremely knowledgeable and experienced. Rishi was very aware of our needs throughout the trek and always went the extra mile to ensure that everything was perfect.
Namaraj, our porter was also great.
The Langtang Valley was as beautiful as we had hoped, and under Rishi’s guidance, we made it to the peaks we were aiming for.
All in all a wonderful experience and a definite five-star review for Himalayan Masters.
Highly recommended (and ask for Rishi!)

I had a great experience doing the Langtang Valley trek with Himalayan Masters!

Planning and communicating with Sandip, the owner, and his team was very easy and reliable from the beginning to the end and they did a fantastic job in answering all my questions and providing me with support when needed. The trek itself was an incredible experience and I felt safe and well taken care of the entire time.

If you’re looking for a professional, reliable, very knowledgeable and kind-hearted guide, ask for Rishi! He took care of all my needs while making sure that I have the best experience possible.

I can wholeheartedly recommend Himalayan Masters for your Nepal adventure and wish the HM team all the best for the future!

Great Langtang valley trek with Himalayan Masters!Germany

Manaslu Circuit Trip with Himalayan Masters:
For the fall of 2020, we planned a trip to Nepal and weren’t sure whether we should book it through a german agency or with a local one. Needless to say, we are 100% satisfied that we booked the trip through Himalayan Masters. The communication was professional from the very beginning and from the moment we were picked up at Kathmandu airport we were taken care of perfectly.

Nepal is beautiful and especially the Manaslu area. But since travel experiences are not (just) made by the places you visit but also by the people that you meet, here is to our guide Dipak and all the wonderful people we met along the way who have been so welcoming and sincere with us! Without exaggeration, this trip has been the purest experience of our lives. And if the trip is measured in friends rather than miles, we must say this trip was as good as it gets!!

Our guide Dipak left nothing to be desired, shone with perfect local knowledge and took care of us so touchingly at any time that a regular thank you seems way too little. Dipak is not only a guide you can rely on 100% but also extremely empathetic, amiable and was always there when we needed him. We had so much fun together, that only after a few hours the trip almost felt like trekking with a good friend.

Since we are both relatively fit and also coped well with the altitude, Dipak kept suggesting additional excursions and routes into our original planning so that we got to see the most beautiful spots such as the Pungyen Gompa Monastery or even Manaslu Base Camp (highly recommended!). In retrospect, this was an unbeatable advantage compared to one of the big tour providers with large and inhomogeneous groups – we were flexible at all times and could shape the tour according to our wishes.

In this way, a clear recommendation to travel to Nepal with the Himalayan Masters! Many thanks to our guide Dipak, our porter Suren and of course to Sandip for the great organization! Nepal will definitely remain in our memories, but most of all in our hearts!

As good as it gets!Germany

Phenomenal winter Langtang Valley trek with “Sandy” and “Pete”! We are a couple, 48 and 55, from the US. I’m vegetarian. Sandeep, the owner of Himalayan Masters, was highly responsive and professional from our very first contact. My partner had been concerned I wasn’t in shape enough to successfully complete the trek, but Sandy’s mindset coaching, alongside his flexible approach and insistence that I could do it if I just took it slow and gave myself the time I needed. He was so right! One of the hardest things I have done physically, yet I felt strong and solid throughout. Petamba also baked me a birthday cake for my 48th in the mountains. When it came the final day, my partner peeled off and did the more difficult peak with Sandy, and Pete guided me to the more manageable 13,500-foot peak. Pete is a wonderful guide in his own right- patient, careful, and encouraging, and with a safety-first approach.
The Langtang trek is spectacular, and Himalayan Masters made it easy. Can’t recommend them enough- we are already talking about our next trek with them!

Phenomenal trek, phenomenal guides!USA

I contacted Sandip from Himalayan Masters about a trip to Nepal in early 2022. I was hopeful of doing Everest base camp and maybe a climb of a 6000m peak. From the second we first connected Sandip cared so much about my trip and my needs.

After arriving in Nepal Sandip greeted me at the airport and gave me a beautiful flower necklace. He dropped me at my hotel and made sure I checked in okay. He was always a message away if I needed anything.

I started my trek 4 days after arriving and my guide was Govinda. Govinda was an amazing guide with awesome English. Govinda and I instantly connected and over the next 17 days, we had an absolute ball. Over 17 days I don’t have a smile left my or Govinda’s face.

My trip to the Himalayas was Truly life-changing. I would recommend anyone considering a trip to Nepal/Bhutan/Tibet to contact Sandip from Himalayan Masters for a great value package.

I would also recommend Govinda as a guide if you’re looking for a friendly fun loving human who genuinely cares about you and your needs. I’m lucky enough to call Govinda my brother now 🙂

Thank you Himalayan Masters and I will be back!

Life ChangingAustralia

Trip of a life time!

My second time back with Himalayan Masters and they exceeded my expectations yet again. Manaslu and Tsum valley trek organised by Sandip was a great itinerary and Dipak was an amazing guide that truly went above and beyond the duties of a trekking guide. He supported our group through all our ups and downs and we certainly couldn’t have done it without his help. The 3 porters, Syren, Pawan, and Pitumber also went above their duties to help cook, serve us fresh fruit every day and keep spirits high! I would recommend Himalayan Masters to anyone who is interested in trekking in Nepal. Miss it already

Trip of a life timeAustralia

Couldn’t recommend Himalayan Masters more for anyone looking for a trekking trip in Nepal

As a first-timer to Nepal and any trekking trips, Sandip was professional from our first conversation with him – he was able to help us with trail selection (based on our experience and preferences); trip preparation (such as equipment to purchase and bring). Items that are included/excluded as part of the package are also clearly written on the website (and fully delivered, if not more). What we really liked was how flexible trip planning was and how responsive Sandip was in answering our queries and helping us prepare for the trip.

As we arrive in Nepal – all accommodation, pick-ups and other transportation are well-arranged. The package was designed so that Himalayan masters also provide some necessary mountaineering gear – so all in all It was a truly hassle-free experience and we could focus on enjoying the trek and views Everest has to offer. All concerns we had with regard to adapting to the food / high altitude / cold weather / physical fitness are being well taken care of. The team is very experienced in high-altitude trekking and we could trust them with any questions we had. Sandip is also really just one message away most of the time so any questions were being addressed promptly. Due to weather conditions, or the flight from Lukla back to the city was cancelled – Sandip was very professional throughout and helped us arrange alternatives so that we could catch our international flight.

Everything aside, we set off to Nepal knowing that we’d enjoy the mountains, but the team at Himalayan Master just made you fall in love with it more. Sandip, our porter Bage is both genuine and really passionate about the mountains. They shared so many things about nature, culture and their experiences on the treks which made the trip so much more interesting. The way they talked about the peaks and expeditions they’ve had still stuck with me. You will on one hand be amazed at how well-versed they are with the Everest region and its everchanging conditions; and on the other hand, just great people to be around and spend time with.

Will definitely go back someday for more trails and would hope to trek with Himalayan Master again!

Amazing experience with Himalayan MastersHongkong

I recently completed a 22-day hike in at Tsum Valley and the Manasalu circuit and it was all possible due to Sandip and the amazing team at Himalayan masters! Our wonderful guide Dipak and three lovely porters constantly went above and beyond to ensure our every need was met! They created the trip of a lifetime for myself and 5 other group members and I can’t wait to get back to Nepal to be able to do it all again with the great, supportive team!

Above and beyond!Australia
