We have had an amazing time in Nepal. Puru made sure we had everything we needed + gave us a warm welcome, taking us out for traditional Nepali meal on our first night.

I can’t recommend Above the Himalaya trekking highly enough. At all times we have felt safe + have receive a wonderful service. The trek was fabulous + the guide Dhurba and porter Basu were very helpful + great fun to be around

My daughter and I came to Kathmandu knowing nothing.

Puru met us, gave us a warm welcome and helped us begin t understand this special place. We were able to be here only a short time, but through Puru,his guide sand advice I felt as though we will able to gain some insight and feel the energy surroundings this place. I don not thing that would have been possible without this assistance

I am most grateful and only to return again and again.

Above the Himalaya Trekking� is an excellent example of what all trekking companies in Nepal should strive to be like. Puru from day one was extremely helpful in not only organising our trek but also organising our spare days and our trip to the jungle. Puru is always contactable on live chat or email which makes communication a breeze.

Our trek was excellently managed and Puru even called our guide to see how everything was going and to make sure that we were happy and enjoying the trip. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and most of all he was extremely friendly, kind and always fun to trek with.

Puru is not only a gentlemen but he is also an honest businessman who always puts his client�s interest first. We experienced this first hand and he was honest and fair which is really hard to come by no matter which company you deal with or which country you are in.

We had an amazing time in Nepal and recommend that �Above the Himalaya Trekking� is the only company to go with when going to Nepal. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Puru to all our friends and family who would be interested in going to Nepal.


Thank you!

I would like to recommend "Above the Himalaya Trekking" agency, which provided an excellent, top notch service to us this October. Special kudos go to Mr. Puru Timalsena (Managing director) and our guide, Mr. Dipak Karki.

It all started with an inquiry about the price of a mountain flight to Everest. Our emails were answered very promptly and professionally. Since we were planning to trek the Annapurna Circuit, we decided to put our trust in this agency and hire a porter/guide through it. For us, two inexperienced trekkers from Israel (actually, it was the very first trek for both of us) the top priority was to hire a very good guide.

It turned out that our choice was correct. Mr. Dipak Karki, is a very experienced (it was his 19th Annapurna circuit) and friendly guide. His English is also really good. It was a joy to trek with him. Mr. Puru Timalsena booked excellent hotels in Kathmandu and Pokhara (much better than we were able to find ourselves). He also provided a lot of other services, like confirming our Nepal Airlines tickets or picking us up at the airport.

So our stay in Nepal was very pleasant and our Annapurna circuit trek was a huge success. Without any prior experience in trekking, we were able to hike some 300 km, visit the remote Tilicho Lake and cross the Thorong La. I am very grateful for all the service, provided by "Above the Himalaya Trekking" agency.

I had an awesome time on my trek with Above The Himalaya Trekking and Puru. As a young female traveler I was a bit worried to be on my own with a guide, but it turns out that those fears were completely unfounded.

Puru who was previously a guide himself, assured me that I would be safe and set me up with a guide who understand and respected my situation.
Bhola was attentive and made sure that I felt comfortable and safe everywhere we went. He told me a lot abut Nepali culture and 2wa happy to answer all of my questions but he also often left me alone with my thoughts- the perfect balance!
Puru could not have chosen a nicer or more knowledgeable guide.

I would definitely recommend Above the Himalaya Trekking to anyone coming to Nepal because I really feel like they offered me safety,secutiry,and and amazing time. Money completely well spent-my time trekking was by far the best time I spent in Nepal and I am eager to come back

Puru,
Above the Himalaya trekking company exceeded our expectations. You were the most polite and the first to reply to our e-mail inquiry. But we still did not know what excellent service we would receive.

This was our first tip to Nepal and you took care of everything. We did not need to worry.
Our guide Dhruba was wonderful. He is a very good man. He held my hand on the steep trail, he told us about Nepal. He listened to our stories and he was always available at all times of the evening at the tea houses to help us.

We will recommend Above the Himalaya trekking to everybody


Thank you!

In Oct-Nov 2009 we enjoyed the “Around Annapurna” Trek in Nepal. After getting good recommendations, we have hired the services of Mr. Puru Timalsena from the ”Above the Himalaya Trekking” office in Kathmandu.

Puru has justified all the good recommendations that he got and more. Puru proved himself to be very professional, reliable, efficient and gave us personal services of the first degree.

We used his services for all kind of arrangements such as Flights, Hotels, Guide, Driver, Permit etc. All the services were given to our full satisfactory.

We highly recommend the services of Mr. Puru Timalsena from “Above the Himalaya Trekking” office in Kathmandu.

Dear Puru,


We had a really good time and our trek. The mountain peaks take our breath way and there was great diversity of scenery en route ranging from subtropical to alpine to desert –like terrain in Mustang


The trek was very well organized, all our emails were promptly answered by Puru and he made sure we had the guide he wanted for us. Mohan by delaying our trek for 2 days. Mohan is a very caring person and treated us all like family, including our 12 years old daughter. WE would highly recommend our guide and porters, for whom nothing was trouble despite carrying our awkward bags!

Hope to come here again one day

In Nepal we visited three towns made a 7 days trekking and visited Chitwan National Park. Our journeys were really enjoyable. Everything went just as it was told.
Even small details were taker care off.

All our guides were friendly people and professional workers

We hope that we are going to have another possibility to come to Nepal and that case we are going to ask Puru to arrange our trip

We just completed the Everest Panorama View trek which was absolutely amazing! Our guide, Ramesh, did a fantastic job of pointing out all the mountains, explaining the Nepalese and Sherpa culture, taking care of our health/safety and teaching us a few new card games, too! The whole trip was very well organized and flexible according to our needs.
It is hard to describe the beauty of the Everest Region so we highly recommend a visit – especially with Above The Himalaya Trekking! The help we received from Puru before our trip was so appreciated – our emails were answered almost instantly! Puru has a great company and pays attention to details while remaining reasonably priced. We'll definitely come back again!

Puru,

Thank you so much for arrange this amazing trekking. Everything during the trekking is fantasticWhen I decided to do the trekking at the beginning I was little bit worried about the safety in the route. Then I searched from internet and our Puru’s trekking agency, the recommend from other clients and the itinerary of their plan le me try to contact Puru by mail.
After that every ting went smoothly from airport picking up at midnight the day view in Kathmandu, the 18 days trekking, everything are excellent. Especially my trekking guide Dipak, without his help I wouldn’t able to reach the EBC and Gokyo Ri.

That’s an excellent trip which Puru arranged for me.

Thank you very much

Puru

Just a quick email to say thank you for organising the trek. It was an incredible experience and the scenery was out of this world, particularly around Manang and along the Thorung La Pass.

Bhala was a fantastic guide. He was knowledgable, enthusiastic and willing to do everything necessary to make the trek a success. He is very easy to get along with and I really enjoyed the two weeks I spent with him. He has a great sense of humour and a very friendly nature. He is a real credit to you and your company. Many of the guides who I met along the circuit also spoke very highly of him too.

I was extremely grateful that you and Bhala were both so flexible about cutting the trek short by 2 days. We managed to cover the circuit quicker than expected. Also, a number of other trekkers who we met along the route were doing the same and spending a couple of days in Pokhara relaxing so I decided to join them.

Thanks also for organising the extra night etc at the Kathmandu Hotel.

Thanks again

Puru has been an invaluable assistance to us even before we came to Nepal. He assured us of our plans in a email and responded to our requests very promptly all the time. He was able to adjust our schedule accordingly with last minute changes and requests.

Puru also hooked us up with a very reliable and pleasing guide Shyam for our trek for Mount Everest View.

Puru’s great gift to Nepal! We want be enjoying our trip this much if not for his help.Puru even managed to arrange excursion trip that not to within his offerings. All while in the festival time (transport is quite difficult in Dashain festival time)

Keep of the good work, Puru!

I packed a lot in my 2 weeks in Nepal, Kathmandu and around, overnight in Bhaktapur, Pokhara, Paragliding, Ghorepani Ghandruk trek, Bandipur, Manakamana cable car all the arrangements were excellent.
Puru has been very easy to reach and the man got me a present and a cake for my birthday. How sweet is that!

Gosh, you never fail to go out of your way to help, assist, entertain and accommodate difficult tourists with their dogs and cameras! Seriously Puru, your generosity and genuine professionalism is quite extraordinary - through all my travels around the world on previous occasions, never yet have I met a man who is so honest and genuinely concerned with the welfare and care of his guests. You simply are quite amazing and unique in a flood of competitors. Please know that Oscar, Inaam (Cameraman) and I deeply appreciate all that you have done to make our visit in Nepal so wonderful and productive. I would love to reciprocate all that you have organized for our World Woof Team.

We we have nothing but praise for Puru. He arranged our month long trip accommodation all our requests with efficiency and attention to every detail. The visit his home villages of Pursuk was the highlight of our stay. The people were warm and very friendly. We felt so welcome and saw real Nepalese life. We also highly recommend our guide Dhurba Bista and Our Porter Basu Duiwadi, They were always courteous and friendly. We are in our 60?s and they were both most patient and helpful. At the end of our trek we regarded them as our Nepali Sons!

Thanks Puru for a fantastic vacation

I highly recommend Puru and his team for any trekking adventure. We
were a team of 7 people on our first trek to Nepal. Our plan was to
trek to Everest Base Camp/Kalar Pathar then to the Cho La Pass to
Gokyo. From the outset of our planning, Puru provided lots of helpful
information and his concern was always our safety and to enjoy our
time in Nepal. He replied promptly to all of my e-mails and the
overall communications during the planning stages was outstanding. We
developed a conservative itinerary to minimize the possibility of AMS.
Upon arrival to Katmandu, we were met at the airport by Puru and
taken to our hotel. We finalized our itinerary at Puru’s office and
met our lead guide Shyam. Our assistant guide Ramesh was to meet us
several days later in Phadking.

Once we started our trek, Shyam and Ramesh were outstanding guides.
They were nothing short of amazing and made our trip so enjoyable!!
Shyam, our lead guide was exceptional teaching us and helping learn
about the various traditions and he shared many stories about the
local culture and religion. Shyam has a wonderful personality and
gets along great with everybody. Ramesh was also magnificent and very
patient always helping the slower trekker(s) and he would always have
a smile on his face. They were outstanding in all aspects of the trek
from getting the best tea houses available to making sure the food and
water was always of the highest quality. They were both always
concerned with our health and safety. In fact, when one of our
members developed a mild case of AMS, we added another rest day to
help in their acclimation to reduce their symptoms and they made it to
EBC safely. We were blessed to have 2 of the best guides on the
mountain.

We so many trekking companies to chose from, Above the Himalaya
delivers outstanding services at an excellent price with superior
customer service. We came to Nepal as tourists and left having made
many friends and feeling a part of the local culture. This was due
to the caring and wonderful experience provided by Above the Himalaya Trekking team.

Just returned from the Everest base camp trek and kala pathar. My guide Dhurba was excellent and the trip was very enjoyable. I would recommend Above the Himalaya to anyone who was thinking of trekking in Nepal. Thank you so much to Puru for his organization and kindness.

I have been a regular visitor to Nepal for the last ten years and have completed a number of treks, among them Mt.Everest Base Camp, Gokyo Lakes, the Annapurna Circuit and Poon Hill, to name a few.All were filled with new experiences, adventure and challenges. I hired various Porters and Guides for those treks.
But nothing comes close to the fantastic support and organisation of the Above Himalaya Trekking Company, led by Puru Timilsina, and his cheerful team!
I have trekked the Kokoda Track in Papua New Guinea, and the Inca Trail in Peru so the bar was high for Puru and his team to reach, which they did, smoothly and with great professionalism.
When I chose Puru and his team at the Above Himalaya Trekking Company to organize my Langtang/Helambu Trek in March/April this year, it was the wisest of all choices!. From the first contact by e-mail to the last goodbye and final detail, Puru and his team demonstrated what a truly dedicated and excellent organisation they are.
Puru cheerfully adjusted my trek details and the date for departure, not once, but twice! My Guide, Phurba and I met in Puru's office the evening before my trek began.
Phurba raced to the office to meet me at very short notice, and I felt very comfortable with both him and Puru.
I had no hesitation in asking any question. They were forthright and frank about any concerns I had, and both gave me answers without any hesitation, thus confirming their skill and comprehension of English.
Because I am a older female, and would be trekking alone, Puru based his choice of Guide on this information.
I am happy to say, his decision in electing Phurba to travel with me was excellent.
Every moment of my trek was a fun and challenging experience, just how I like it. AND! Phurba delivered my morning coffee to me just as I like it every single day too! I felt safe, secure and most importantly, understood by Phurba, not just the language, my Guide understood me and my needs. This was very important for me. I never felt pressured to walk faster if I didn't feel like it, the accomodation was always with a view to my degree of physical condition at the end of each day. Sometimes ground floor, sometime two flights of stairs!
Phurba's cheerful nature, happy smile and dedication to delivering only the best service was without falter. His knowledge of the Langtang & Helambu area is comprehensive and he was sure to point out many new and intriguing things to me along the way. His help through deep snow over the Laurabina Pass was also greatly appreciated!
The food, accomodation and distances we trekked each day were all totally in sync with daily my requirments, I think Phurba is a mindreader!
My whole trek was an experience I will always remember as 'My best trek yet'. The final detail was that Phurba came to the airport to present me with the creamy silk scarf, called a Karta, to ensure my safe and happy travels as I departed Nepal.I will definately be e-mailing Puru when I am ready to do my next trek, and have no reservations in recommending their service to all people of all ages and status. Lone females can feel secure and safe in contacting Puru to organize their trek or travels.Thank you Puru and your team for giving me such great service and a wonderful and unforgettable trek.

I have done one trek in Nepal from the 06th of March to the 10th of March. Unfortunately my stay was very short. I've contacted a local guide company, " Above The Himalaya Trekking". The guy, Puru, provide me a good proposition.
From Pokhara to Ghorepani; then Poon Hill to Chomrong (a very tough day); chomrong to Dampus. (average of 9hrs/day of walk)

The view at Poon Hill was wonderfull, nobody has to missed it!
Near chomrong we went to some hot spring pool near a mountain river; it was amazing.
The accomodation were clean and simple. The sanitary were quiet rough. No need to carry to many stuff with you, in village you can find everything (water, toilet paper soap battery
Food was great, and without any limitation (included in the price),try the french fries!
Everything was organised by the guide company. We had with us 1 guide and 1 porter, both speaking english, and knowing well the region. They were very flexible and organised.
I warmly recommand this people. I got a very fast answer when I was looking for a trek in such a short time, and price was reasonnable. They organised also the flight between KTM to POKHARA and the TREKKING PERMIT was ready when we arrive.

In december 2008 I have done a trekking in Nepal (Lukla - Kalapattar - Chola Pass - Gokyo).
Being a single female traveller I have been very careful in selecting a porterguide to acompany me during this trek. I booked Purna Karki through Above the Himalaya Trekking and I couldn't have made a better choice.

Purna is a very kind, respectful and honest person who speaks and understands good english. During the trek he took care of everything necessary and was a true addition to the experience. Being from the area he gave me lots of information and knew so many people along the route. I found it much easier to get in touch with the local people with Purna by my side, and there hasn't been a moment that I didn't feel safe. Besides that, Purna has a very pleasant personality and is very funny to be around. I could truly recommend Purna to any single female traveller, but also to groups. All guesthouse owners, and other trekkers and porters/guides we met along the way enjoyed his company.

I planned my personalised trek together with Puru in the office in Thamel. Puru Timalsena arranged everything with great care and with an eye for detail. I think the company is professional and offers fair prices. Puru supplied my guide with a medical kit and insurance, and Purna had very good equipment (shoes, clothes, crampons etc.).

Thank you Puru and his team, my trek in Nepal has been a wonderful, memorable experience.

There were about a million stairs on the first day (it seems) but we all got there finally. We had fantastic mountain views from Chisapani in the morning. The food was amazing and really delicious at the lodgings. Basu and Hem were our porters and they were fantastic as well. They were always very helpful and very friendly. We would recommend both Sam, our excellent guide and both our porters to anyone else
We had a great time and would thoroughly recommend the trek to anyone. As my parents say (who are 61 and 65yrs old), if they can do it, anyone can. Our young children also managed extremely well on the trek. Thank you very much for providing such a wonderful experience for us all. We really enjoyed our time.
We recommend the Above the Himalayan Trekking company to anyone who would like to use them. Mr Puru was excellent to deal with and prompt with his replies and information. Thank you Mr Puru and your team.

The Annapurna Circuit Trekking was fantastic, although the trek is very tough. But we had the support of our wonderful guide Shyam and our 2 porters. He gave us his 100% attention throughout the trek and good advice to avoid Altitude Mountain Sickness. I would definitely recommend Above The Himalaya Trekking Puru to all my friends to use his service. The food was great too.

The guide and porters are wonderful! Without our guide I wouldn?t have gone up to the top! The porters are extremely hardworking. All I have to say is they are worth every cent you spend. Enjoy the Trek!

The Annapurna Circuit Trek was beautiful and moderately tough. The guide was helpful during the trek, Porters were good and strong, they were always there to help. Both the porters and guide were very polite

I definitely recommend this Annapurna Circuit Trek and of course the Above The Himalaya Trekking (p) Ltd and their best guide and porters. All the best to you, Puru
