Our trip went smoothly even though it was the monsoon time. Dipak planned everything for us in advance, we loved his itinerary. Assigned guide in all places were excellent. Our drivers were always punctual and worked very hard for us. Thank to the team of Himalaya Holiday Service.

Most memorable vacation

Dear Rajan,
Thanks so much. It has been a wonderful trip and you have done a great job organizing everything, including making all the changes to ensure that we had a most memorable vacation.
Both guides were great. We enjoyed our time with Sajan in Bhutan and with Paras here in Nepal. They were both very knowledgeable, answering all our many questions, as well as being most pleasant to spend time with.
Everything more than met our expectations. We will recommend you to all our friends. Let us know if your service ever expands to include other countries.
Sincerely,

Great Nepal Tibet trip

The trip to both countries were great Jim Potter and Deb Miller, USA

Dear Rajan
Our recent trip to Bhutan and Nepal was excellent and we really appreciated the superb service and attention to detail that you and your guides gave us. From the very beginning we were impressed that you even went to the trouble and expense to call us to make sure we understood some of the intricacies of the scheduling. That was surely above and beyond the call of duty.

You were also very patient and flexible in working with us to achieve all that we wanted to in our short trip while keeping within budget. All in all, you guys did a great job of communicating with us and letting us know what was going on, within a fairly short timeline. We really appreciated it.

The trip to both countries were great, our guides and drivers were wonderful and we saw so much more with your help than we ever could have on our own. We would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone needing travel assistance. Thanks again for everything.

Himalayan itinerary Nepal Tibet Bhutan

Himalayan itinerary Nepal Tibet Bhutan

Hi Rajan,
Just wanted to thank you for arranging such a wonderful tour.  Our Himalayan itinerary Nepal Tibet Bhutan was just what we expected.  Even with the change in our itinerary due to Air China changing our flight schedule to Tibet, you were able to modify our itinerary so that everything proceeded without a hiccup.  Our guides in Bhutan, Tibet and Nepal were a wealth of information, spoke good English and were very accommodating.  In addition to showing us all the sights designated on our itinerary, all the guides were able to fit in things that they thought were important and not on the itinerary and we still had enough free time to wander around on our own.   Our trip was a huge success and I would recommend your services to anyone interested in traveling in Bhutan, Tibet and Nepal.
If you have any other travelers that would like to talk to someone about your company’s services, please do not hesitate to have them contact me by email or phone.
Once again, thank you.
