I couldn’t speak more highly of Summit Treks and Adventures. I came to Nepal pretty
much clueless in regards to what I would be doing “adventure” wise, and where I would
be going. I was so fortunate to find Summit! Bikram and his crew were nothing but kind
and honest. I booked many trips with Bikram, from spur of the moment bus rides to
Pokhara and Chitwan, to a well planned trek in Everest region. All of which turned out
great. When I first came to Nepal, I knew Bikram as my “Travel Guy”. After 5 months
of countless cups of tea, one too many glasses of rum, and a few too many of his wife’s
delicious momos, I leave Nepal calling him a friend. Many of my fondest memories of
Nepal would not have happened without the help of Summit, and I am forever grateful
for their help and kind hearts. If you book with Summit Treks, I guarantee that you will
gain many great memories as well as a friend.
