    10/10 for the Langtang Valley Trek!!

    I reached out to Anjan at Aspiration Adventure under an extreme time crunch. I wanted to get to Nepal in a WEEK. He was able to organize me such an amazing trek through the Lang Tang valley.

    When it came down to which company I wanted to go with I had no better option. Immediately Anjan was the most responsive, and the most flexible to making adjustments to the itinerary to make it work for me and my budget. This guy is the best, and because he’s the best he gets the best!!

    Having both an experienced and FUN guide is super important. That’s exactly what Aspiration Adventure did when they hired Pema to be my guide. Friendly. Kind. Uplifting. Accommodating. And a STUD.

    I reached out to 4-5 other companies for quotes on the same itinerary, Anjan got me the best price hands down.

    10/10 all around for Aspiration Adventure! Thank you!!
