Great Experience of ABC Trek with Anil

It was a pleasure to have Nepal Adventure Pilgrimage Treks and Expedition as our guide to ABC. Anil took care of us very well and was (and still is!) a great guide and friend to us all during the whole trip. Even when we arrived back in Kathmandu, he still offered us a good price transport around town as well as suggestions about everthing there. It was a memorable trip and I wouldn't hesitate to go with them again next time around.
