Snow Leopard TestimonialTrip Dates October 22-29, 2024Langtang TrekBeth Hestick and Christina KramerMan Bahadur Sunuwar, GuideDepeesh Sunuwar, PorterWow! What an adventure.The eight day long Langtang Trek was spectacular.Our guide, Man Sunuwar or “MB” as we called him, was wonderful. He ledus ‘slowly, slowly’, at a pace that allowed us to appreciate the lushrainforest as we made our way along the Langtang River, up into the greatglacier shaped valley with long vistas of the Himalayas. More importantly,the ‘slowly, slowly’ guaranteed that our steady ascent allowed us tosuccessfully reach Kyangjin Ri and return successfully. No blisters, nocomplaints. Nothing but memories of spectacular views, great meals -nothing too spicey at our request, and a peek at mountain culture.It was a tremendous excursion and I can’t think of a better organizationthan Snow Leopard to plan it.Once we returned to Kathmandu, Yankila Sherpa, Snow Leopard’s owner,arranged a city guide and driver for a tour Durbar Square, Pashupatinathand Patan – the old quarters of the city. Yankila also arranged for us to seeMount Everest, Sagarmatha, by air.Yankila Sherpa, MB and Snow Leopard Trekking took great care of usfrom our initial contact from the US to the time we left Kathmandu. Wecouldn’t have asked for a more friendly and attentive tour company.

The best of the best for trek guiding, porting and logisticsOct 2024 • CouplesWe have just finished our 7th trek with Snow Leopard. We started in 2010 with our son’s high school spring break trek and have continued going almost every year using only Snow Leopard for our trek planning and execution. Trekking on the many trek routes in Nepal is a wonderful experience when you have an excellent trek company to work with. We have trekked the most popular routes like EBC, ABC and Liangtang. And with their help moved on to less known routes like Mustang and now Arun Valley. We have gone with large camping groups, a group of friends and with our family. We would happily be a personal reference for anyone to this company. They have been in this business since the early days of the trekking industry in Nepal. They have a staff that has been with them for many years. They know the routes. They know how to help people with the challenges. They guide safely. And they are fun to be with.

Hello Snow Leopard….Thanks to all for a fabulous trip to the mountains last week. Thoroughly enjoyed. I’m busy recommending you to friends in Dubai.Best wishes… until next time,Nick Walshe

“Snow Leopard Trek are our trusted partners for Nepal, Bhutan and Tibet. We bring groups regularly and the detailed attention they provide our clients is unsurpassed. Moreover, Snow Leopard Trek shares our values and any visitor who comes to Nepal not only has an amazing holiday, but will also meet the people who call the country home. Because of their level of personalized detail, I frequently send clients traveling on their own to Snow Leopard Trek because I know they are in the very best hands! Thank you Snow Leopard Trek for all that you do!”

Thank you Samden and Snow Leopard for making our Everest Base Camp Trek an awesome one. This is my second time using your services and like last year’s Langtang Valley Trek, you and your guides and staff did a superb job. As an international teacher who has organized a school trip through Snow Leopard, I will always recommend Snow Leopard. The Himalayas are a magical place that will always hold a special place in my heart. Thanks, Snow Leopard Trek.

I speak Nepali: so wasn’t sure I needed a guide on the Upper Mustang trek. I was wrong! Tek Bahadur was so knowledgeable about the area! He brought out stones of the area that it never would have heard without him! He also really helped us out when my husband hurt his ankle. Snow Leopard was great! Top Notch!2016 Upper Mustang trek
