Excellent Experience

I and a friend arranged a tour with Outfitter when we visited Nepal in May/June 2013. They looked after us incredibly well, and the cost was amazing value. Our guide, Bishnu was friendly and knowledgeable, and made sure we got the most out of our trip.

I would thoroughly recommend Outfitter's services to anyone travelling to Nepal, we had absolutely no complaints and would definitely book with them if and when we go back to this amazing country.

Excellent Experience

This review is written by a self-confessed couch potato who has never been on a hiking trip. Our group of 4 is led by guide Rajesh and porters Ravi and Dinesh. They were dedicated, attentive and patient. We trekked 2hours uphill to village Dhampus and was welcomed by the spectacular view of the Himalayas.

The next day we trekked around 20km to Sarangkot. Although it was my first trek I did not feel I couldn't do it as the guides...
