Service. Communication. Connection. Working by these core values for fifteen years has led to meaningful adventures for hundreds of adventurers and a very fulfilling career for me. Providing fantastic service and clear communication are my strengths, and forging meaningful connections between us, and between you and my country, Nepal, is my aspiration. Some of the greatest compliments I have received are: “You go to him as a client, and you leave as a friend” and “Everything was taken care of to my utmost satisfaction”.
As a provider of 80 unique treks and expeditions in Nepal, the importance I place on your security cannot be understated. All the guides I hire are fully licensed and certified veterans. When you trek with me be prepared for the adventure of a lifetime. – Sanjib Adhikari
