Warm, welcoming and safe trekking

nugetz, Singapore

I visited in Feb 2015. I got to know Dilli from Airbnb and I stayed the first night in his home before the start of my trek. Both him and Susann and the family were very welcoming and friendly and all the meals were home cooked and delicious. My guide Raj was also staying there for the night so that we could set off early next morning. I went for the Ghorepani Poon Hill trek. My guide Raj took good care of me, helped me with my backpack when I got tired and took care of my food, drinking and lodging needs. Knowing that the return trip would be slippery due to snow, and I was not in the condition to proceed, he recommended to take the same route back for safety reasons. He was also very accommodating to slight changes to the plans due to my personal wish to hurry back to Kathmandu for some festival celebrations. All in all, I had a great trip with them!
