    Our family of 5 just completed the 4 day Sandakphu trek. Subash was very accommodating and helped us find the trek that best fit our traveling schedule. He communicated well and assisted with logistics in lodging and transportation beyond just the trek. He met with us ahead of time to carefully go over the schedule and give us tips on how to best prepare, including foods to avoid, things to take along, etc. Our guide, Pemba, was very friendly and made sure we had what we needed. He never seemed impatient when we asked hundreds of questions or stopped to take innumerable pictures. He took great care of us and was fun to be around. Our hosts were friendly and knew what foreigners preferences were. The authentic, local cuisine was a highlight. If Pemba knew we especially liked a certain dish he made sure to ask for it again. Overall it was a great experience and we definitely would recommend Ashmita Trek & Tours!

    We had a trek in the Himalayan foothills on the Nepal/India border with our wonderful guide Dawa Lama. Though the clouds ruined the view, Dawa was great and informative, it felt authentic to have breakfast and lunch in local mountain villages (tasty momos, soups, tea, curries and 'the best lime pickle I have ever tasted'). dipu our driver was also great and also drove us to the airport.
    All the Ashmita staff spoke excellent English and were really easy to communicate with, you got the sense this was a very trustworthy organisation.
