Highly Flexible and Organized! Annapurna Base Camp Treks

Highly Flexible and Organized! Annapurna Base Camp Treks

CuriousWanderlust0 , 18 April 2018

CuriousWanderlust00 Bangkok, Thailand 11 Reviewed April 18, 2018 Highly Flexible and Organized! I did the 13 Days ABC Trekking + Poon Hill with Nepal Planet Treks on 5-17 Apr 2018. Sanjib has been super fast in replying my emails from the very beginning . I had quite a last minute arrangement - less than a month but everything made possible by Sanjib and his team. I had a little brother during the trip - Jiban :-) who was my Guide and Porter and what a super hero he was !! He managed my heavy backpack, my moods, slow walking , frequent rest stops and of course my highly inquisitive mind - like a pro - despite his young age. Bravo Jiban ! You will go far in life if you keep up the positive attitude! Despite the last minute arrangement during this period which turned out to be a peak season as most guesthouses were booked up by big groups, Jiban managed to 'sweet talk' his way and get our accommodation sorted out in the end. Otherwise I would have never made it to ABC! And Sanjib has been giving me a first class personalized treatment when we met in Kathmandu. Even though I traveled solo, having Sanjib and Jiban around - you will never be alone. Thank you so very much for arranging one of the best trip Ive had so far! Definitely will travel with you again when Im back in Nepal hopefully soon
