VISITORS RECOMMENDATION
I want to write this recommendation to say the Helambu trek I made with Binod's company was 12/10. Everything Binod described when I planned it with him turned out be exactly as he promised. My Guide was the best of company, as was the porter. After 7 days I had seen and achieved a lot in spectacular terrain, and enjoyed amazing local culture and hospitality. I'm a very happy customer! - James Gilchrist (UK)
As our trek started with cancelled flights to Lukla two days after we had opportunity to appreciate the all-arranged service of the company which readily rescheduled and re-organized our trekking so on the second day we flew to Pokhara and went for the Annapurna Base comp trek - which was amazing we were pleasantly surprised pie the rich rhododendron and bamboo forests which cover most of the lower valleys our guide was very experienced and always good - humored , Just the same as the never tiring two potters, they would greet us playing football when we finally arrived the roughly exhausted at our destination lodge. Generally the lodges were well- chosen and comfy. Also, one advantage of doing a very popular trekking route is that you always meet a lot of friendly co-trekkers for a nice chat in the evening. The weather was not constantly excellent - there were a few really heavy downpours , But we were lucky and when we got up to the M BC and ABC the view was superb in the night as well as in the day. All in all, a very nice, a great experience! - Anke, sigrun & Burkhard (Germany)
This is my second trip to Nepal. Previously, I completed the Annapurna base camp trek. This time I choose to go to Gokyo Lake. I was apprehensive as I knew little about Alpine Adventure Club what I read on their website. However, upon reaching at Kathmandu airport, I was warmly received by Binod (My trip operator) himself. He brought me to a pleasant hotel and introduced me to a very friendly and reliable trekking guide. I only get the porter when I reached at Lukla but he was just as helpful and amiable. They help me a lot when the treks proved to be very hard for me.
I should also point out that Binod provided very fast email before my trip. He would offer suggestions and tips for all my queries. I highly recommend this trekking agency to anyone who wants to new the grand mountains of Nepal. - Tan Hong Wee - (Singapore)
I really enjoyed the ABC (Annapurna base Camp) trek. It was a nice way with beautiful, different landscape during the whole trek. We could see the rhododendron in flower. We walked together with a friendly, well experienced guide who could always answer our questions also I like the joking porters very much. The accommodation always was well chosen by the guide and the standard was higher than I expected. Thank you very much to the guide & the porters and the organization of the trek done by the travel agency. - Freya Ritter - Germany
I had an amazing time on this trip!
At first I was worried about coming to Nepal since I did not have time to plan the trip myself - however, Mr. Binod Thapa (Managing director of Alpine Adventure Club Treks & Expedition) figured at my entire trip for me!
Everything on the trip was perfect - better than I could have planned myself. Because I had such a great time on my trip, I am sure that I will be coming back to visit Nepal again! All the hotels, Guides and transportation was perfect - I didn't have to worry about anything while on the trip. It was great! - Lauren Ruff (USA)
We have been very impressed with Alpine Adventure Club from the very first e-mail. He responded very quickly and gave complete answers to all my questions and concerns. Upon arrival he was there to meet us at the airport with lovely garlands! The accommodations where all clean and the people friendly and helpful. I would not hesitate to recommend Binod & his company. We have had a wonderful trouble free visit in Nepal thanks to his concern and help. - Sally Brodziak (USA)
Alpine Adventure Club Treks & Expedition was very professionally run. I give my full recommendation. - Mike Brodziak (USA - Live in Singapore)
We're really enjoyed our trip! The organization was excellent and the guide and porter very very nice. For sure all things our expectation, we're very happy and of course we'll recommend this company to all our friends. We come from far far away and we made to deposit our trust in someone confident and always was ok. We hope to come back to Nepal and of course our choice will be the same.
Really thank you - Marcos D. Pereira & Judith Kessler (Argentina)
Alpine Adventure Club organized my trek. Binod (The owner of the company) was extremely helpful in giving me information to prepare for the trip. Since this was my first trek I had many questions and Binod patiently answers all of them. The trek was well organized and was a great experience. Everything was arranged, I had a great guide and even weather cooperated! The trek was everything I hope for. I would recommend Alpine Adventure Club to anyone planning a Nepal trek.
- Duane Hybertson (USA)
Jan Read and I enlisted the Alpine Adventure Club Treks & Expedition via the internet because we wanted all the friends to go to a Nepali company and we were not disappointed. All tickets bookings and permits were on time and delivered as promised. We found Binod Thapa very reliable and helpful also fair when we wanted to change plans. The Guides, porters and hotels that were recommend gave very good service and advice. When you book somebody from the web you are taking a company on faith when you send a deposit Alpine Adventure Club was very professional & proved to be very trustworthy. We have no hesitation in recommending the Alpine Adventure Club for your Nepali experience. - Maxwell Ashley Read & Jan Read (Australia)
We have enjoyed very much the Annapurna base camp trekking. We have come back very exhausted but at the same time completely satisfied and happy. The landscapes, the mountains,
the forests are incredibly beautiful but the most important has been the people. All the people en the trail were very friendly, people in Tea houses, people of different nationalities who were doing the trekking like us and over all I want to give thanks specially to our porter and our guide without their help and their company, our trekking had not been possible and finally we want to thank the boss Mr. Binod Thapa for his kind attention on every time since we contact him by internet. The Last night we enjoyed together. Thanks lot we will come back to Nepal ! NAMASTE! - Javier Ruiz and Milagros (Spain)
Thank you for your great hospitality during our trip. I found Nepal as a very cultural, unique but friendly country. There are so many things we can do there, hiking, experience the culture, learning about Nepal history while still enjoy the great archetecture. However, our trip will not be this great without your great hospitality. Great deal, great service and great people, that's all we found from your team.
Thank again and we will be back.
Cheers. - Araya, 16pax Group - Bangkok Thailand
We Richard and Christy Auer of Whistler, B.C Canada would like to recommend Alpine Adventure Club Treks & Expedition Company with real enthusiasm.
We found the company over the internet and from our first interaction received prompt and through service, every promise was met, every detail taken care of we have never traveled to Nepal before and we were overwhelmed by the beauty of the countryside, majesty of the beauty and strength of the people. Trekking was the ideal way to experience all of this, we walked for 8 days we wished we could have walked for 8 days. Our guide was a perfect and sensitive host and guide along with our porter we feel like a little family by the end.
We are planning our next trip to Nepal already, we are sad to leave but will take back to whistler thousands of photographs and memories of mountains and people and the aroma of fresh foods being prepared, these memories will never go away. We look forward to our next trek.

Tibet Motor Biking Tour: After 15 days roaming back and forth to Lhasa with three motorcycles organized perfectly by Mr. Binod Thapa we are back safe in Kathmandu. Supposedly was an adventures trip but Mr. Binod had covered all angles and the only adventure was left for us was to drive our bikes. I could say that everything was planed ahead and thank you for the pleasant trip. We were a group of four and three of us driving Enfield motorcycles with a Land cruiser covering our backs.
Thanking you again

We are a group of three Irish Backpackers in our mid twenties on the final day of our around the world trip we wished to plan the trip in advance
and found the Alpine Adventure Club Treks & Expedition website (www.nepal-guide.com) very informative. Binod Thapa was very helpful and quick to respond to all our queries. On arrival in Kathmandu It was great to be welcomed by Binod Thapa and brought to his office where he gave us a detailed description of what was to be ahead of us over the next 12 days. We also got to meet our trekking guide there at the office.
We found the 12 days trekking bit tough at times last arrival it was an absolutely amazing experience. We stayed in Teahouse along the route, all of which meet ok expectations. We found that both guide and porter added immensely to the quality of our trip. Our guide had very good English which allowed him to respect his knowledge of country, Area, Route, Mountains and Local Sherpa people.
Thanks to all who made our Trip to Nepal so enjoyable.
- Aine, Claire and Mary Ireland
We are a group. We are twelve member only one of our member tired the Himalaya before we found Alpine Adventure Club on the website, we sent many e-mails to its C.E.O Binod Thapa and we were very interested with his helps. So we booked nearly nine months in advance sending off our deposit. We do not regret a minute of it everything Binod said he would do he did it very professionally and pleasantly. We did a three day trek around the Kathmandu valley.
- LEO Mahon (Dublin - Ireland)
Our Journey through Kathmandu valley was a wonderful experience for me, as I wouldn't the great trekker. Binod and his Sherpas were really good to the group always friendly and helpful. The Views were Spectacular. We each other entertained on the way and had a great time. when we arrived in Dhulikhel we meet Tour guide to Kathmandu and its wonderful temples and all it has been a great journey for us. All of Binod staff were really good thanks for everything.
- Kay Mahon (Ireland)
We are two of a group of 12 people from Ireland. We are both on 60 year. Christopher and myself (Hazel) to the think wonderful but very hard. Our guide Binod (Our Tour operator) and his staff kindly and professional we would find the best. It was beautiful places, scenery that land take your breath away and the people were so friendly. We would recommend this trip to any adventures person. Thanks Again Binod.
- Hazel and Christopher Lee (Dublin - Ireland)
Very tough trip, made much better by the very attentive Sherpas (Porters) specially Mohan. The food that was prepared for us was very tasty I will definitely recommend Alpine Adventure Club to everyone. I have traveled to many places you are the best company we have travelled with.
- Mairead and Damian Mc Kenny - Ireland
A tough but enjoyable trip an achievement made possible only with the
help guidance of you very able Sherpas (Trekking staff) especially Mohan. Your Sherpas instituted confidence in me because they readily appealed at every difficult navigation. The food too was great and the teahouse at Chisapani peaceful lots of laughs as we adjusted to the conditions. That "Roxy" (Nepali wine) at the Dhulikhel Lodge was a nice. Well done to all I feel I have accomplished much with Alpine Adventure Club Treks & Expedition.
- NOELENE MAHON AND GEORGE MAHON (CANADA)
It was the a dream to be trekking in the Himalayas - A really great dream - we really enjoy the three days, all of it! The porters were a great help particularly Mohan always take care. I will definitely recommend Alpine Adventure Club to any of my friends who may come here. Good luck in the future.
- CATHERINE AND THOMAS WALSH (IRELAND)
It was amazing, I really enjoyed the trekking and my favorite place was Chisapani. The scenery was out of this world and the sun coming up in the morning brought a tear to my eye. Thanks to the Sherpas for sure without them I don't think we would have made it and thank you Binod for all your help and good advice hope to come back again.

Before we fixed our trip we have had e-mail contact to the Mr. Binod Thapa and we were very impressed about his fast and detailed answers to our many questions. Our four weeks in Nepal were wholly planned by Binod Thapa he choose our hotel in Thamel, organized a guided tour
in Kathmandu valley, the “Sailung trek” and four days “Chitwan national park” He even cared about our transfer from Airport to hotel and back and fixed our bus trip to “Chitwan” so we could feel very comfortable by not having any reason to worry about our program planning. Everything had been done very professional and we can recommend this reliable company. The crew that accompanied us was very well selected. They cared about us all the time and prepared everything for us they worked quick like ants so they hardly let us any chance to help them for example by building up the tents. Every day we were wondering how they were able to carry that heavy luggage and nevertheless all of them were always smiling and in good mood. So that we both really enjoyed the time staying together with them sometimes singing or dancing and learning more and more Nepali words.
The food our cook and his assistants prepared for us was always opulent and delicious. He offered us a huge variety of different dishes and two times he surprised us with a self-made worm chocolate cake. So there are only positive things to tell about crew and we both would like to say a big thank you.

I highly recommend Alpine Adventure Club Treks & Expedition, Binod Thapa and his staff are both
very friendly and professional, making sure that you are happy with their services. The trekking went smoothly with the guide & porter being friendly, professional and knowledgeable. The guide always organized for me to stay in the best places on the trek, making it a more comfortable and enjoyable experience. When Organizing the trek over the internet and in person all my questions and quires were met promptly and answered completely assuring any doubts I had about any issues. The prices for hotel accommodation and tours were cheaper than if I organized it myself. Overall I had a great experience in Nepal, and the organization Alpine Adventure Club Treks & Expedition made sure the trekking,hotels and other tours went off with out any hassles. 5th Nov 2006

Being back in Kathmandu after a 14 days Trek to Langtang Valley & Gosaikunda Pass I am still very impressed from the magnificent views. It was also made possible with the help of Ramesh & Keshab and their caring guidance. we had a great time. The organization of everything was done by Mr. Binod Thapa and it was perfect it started with worm welcome at Kathmandu airport. I was also invited to his house. The preparation of the Trekking tour was perfectly done and that's why it became so wonderful. I want to thank Mr. Binod Thapa and his team for Thousands of unforgettable impressions.

Namaste Binod,
Yesterday I arrived in Switzerland, and today I was just talking to my collegues about my journey and adventures in Nepal. Again, thank you very much for your good job and the very good time that I had in Nepal. 09th Nov. 2006

I went on a trek with Binod Thapa to Anapurna. It was just me, him, and a porter. I was in Nepal for 9 days (I wish I could have stayed longer) and Binod arranged everything, from the moment he picked me up from the airport to when he dropped me off at the same airport nine days later. He arranged for housing, meals, sightseeing in Kathmandu and Pokhara, and the trek. I chose him as a guide based on the recommendation of some dear and trustworthy friends who had been on a trek with him before, and in retrospect I made a very good choice.
Although he is young, Binod has a lot of experience with trekking, he knows the trails inside out and the people involved in the tourism industry at various levels, he is a good organizer and he made all the necessary arrangements for the trip in a very professional way. He also speaks very good English and is very knowledgeable about Nepal in general, so apart from being a good guide, he was pleasant company and I learned a lot about the local culture from my conversations with him. So yes, I recommend that you use him as a guide.
Good luck and happy travels! (I loved Nepal and I am hoping to return some day, so I am a bit jealous that you have the chance to go there now :-) Thanks

Trek was very energetic & left us a little hard, but much more have they beautiful view and Binod & Sherpas didn't push us too much, most helpful which need its help down rocky paths. Never too dangerous, best fun and Enjoyable.
Celilia Armelin (USA)
Binod organized everything perfectly so as I could see and experience the Nepalese culture with in my very limited time period within Nepal. After my 6/7 day stay all I could think about was returning to Nepal to hopefully see those "Mountain Beauties". So determined was Binod to making sure we had a organized and value for money trip, I believe he would have gone so far to try and organize clear skies................unfirtunately, close, but he's not GOD !! Nepal well what can I say the scenery, people, culture all fantastic and
one of the main highlights and not on any planned itinerary was been
invited to Binod's family home to have dinner with his family - a true Nepalese experience!!Binod, thanks again for everything.
