In October 2019 my brother and I had the pleasure to visit Chitwan National Park under the guidance of (Kumar) Lama. After a long bus ride from Kathmandu we were welcomed at the Earth Light Hotel. The had everything we needed, and more! The place was well-maintained, clean, had a swimming pool and the (all inclusive) meals were good. The staff was very polite. During the three days, Lama had prepared a program for us which included various activities such as jungle canoeing, visiting an elephant pharm, a local village an dance show. The absolute highlight was the jungle walk where we encountered a rhinoceros! I would describe Lama as a helpful, professional, sincere and enthusiastic guide. After the three days it felt like we made a friend! We hope Lama and the hotel are doing well and we wish him and his family all the best during these difficult Covid times.

I have just returned from Annapurna Base Camp trek with Eve Holidays and I love the experience. Everything went smooth and their service was perfect. Food was great and accommodation was fine considering the fact that it was in remote mountains. Views in the Annapurna trek was wonderful with magical mountains, small villages and tea house lodges and Nepalese rural lifestyle. My guide and porter were very caring and they made sure all the time that i am safe and enjoying my trek. I would extremely recommend Eve Holidays as I found it beyond my expectation and it is operated by a single mom who employs women so that she can help them. I appreciate the small step taken by her towards helping other women like herself.

I just returned from my fantastic trip to Everest base camp by helicopter. It was a wonderful experience. I booked a group joining helicopter tour as private trip was out of my budget. I enjoyed the company with other passenger of the flight. We chat a lot while waiting for the flight and had a lovely breakfast together at Hotel Everest view. The booking process was very easy and the company contacts me just right after I made the booking. They provide the very helpful tips before going on the flight. While we flew to Lukla, the weather on the way was not good and worried, we may not see the mountains, but when we go higher locations, the weather become more clear and clear. The landing in Kalapattar was amazing experience. We saw the many mountains including Mount Everest just in front of us which were unbelievable experience. If you are visiting Nepal and want to see the Himalayas, nothing can be better then Everest base camp helicopter tour. Highly highly recommended.

Thought the reason for taking the services was not so pleasant (I was evacuated by Helicopter due to medical reasons), I would like to sincerely thank Mukti Pandey for his kind assistance in arranging everything. He took on himself all the negotiations with the insurance company, he arranged one Heli, the second Heli, he did miracle even in nasty weather, he was always in touch with me, supported and comforted me (and you know, it’s hard to remain patient and calm when you cannot breath and feel terribly sick). I felt that I’m in reliable hands and should not worry about anything, whatever I need this kind person will arrange for me. Negotiations with the hospital, transportation, treatment, insurance issues, etc, etc - he kindly helped me literary with everything and my only task remained just to recover sooner without any thoughts about administrative and paper issues. His organizational skills and possibilities are amazing. Whatever experience you are taking with his Company, rest assured you are in safe hands and everything will be arranged first-class! Thank you so much Dear for your assistance and everything you did for me, my words cannot say how much I appreciate your help ans saving me! All the best luck to you and your esteemed Company!
