I know Anil Dhakal for years - first time we met in 2014, at that time he was working in another agency; I needed a guide for Upper Mustang, and that agency gave me Anil as the best and the most knowledgable guide they had. And I must admit they were right! Anil not only has perfect experience in Nepali treks - he's kind and delicate as a person, and he did his best in all the complicated situations that we had while trekking. Time passed, in 2016 I came back to Nepal as group leader with 10 clients - and again I met Anil, who opened finally his own agency. This time I used him as a tour operator, for all the paperwork and I had porters from him. And again, he did his best, providing help and support on each and every stage. I can only wish success to his business - and I know who I will address in Kathmandu when I come back to Nepal again! )
Review for 17 days Upper Mustang Trek
Anil, He is always our favorite. 2011 we went trekkingat at ABC, at that time Anil was still Thomas's assisstance, helping him changing lens while taking pictures and learn how to take picture. 2022 Langtang trip, Anil turned professional and did a good job. He can take good pictures with nice proposition. He was ready all the time and knew our angle without telling him. During trekking, he has a good eye-sight, pointing out the animals,flowers,ect. He is knowledgeable, funny, and helpful. We have plan to trek at Mustang next year. Of course, we will use his professional Nepal Adventure Pilgrimage company again. As we have told you 'He is always our FAVORITE'
Review for 12 days Langtang Valley Trek
We did the Manaslu Circuit trek and it was amazing. Before arriving Anil was very helpful and organised everything, and once in Kathmandu took great care of us. During the trek, our guide Kancha and porter, Rajendra, were super dedicated, kind and professional. Many thanks guys, it was a truly memorable and unforgettable experience!! We strongly recommend Nepal Adventure Pilgrimage Treks and Expedition. Dhanyabaad!!

We had good experience in trek. Anil helped with Tims and Permit and recomended perfect porter Bishnu. This company organized comfort transfer from Katmandu airport. So, we can recomend he, like good partner in Nepal.
Review for 15 days Annapurna Circuit Trek
Great experience from end to beginning. We came to Kathmandu with no booking so we looked around for agencies. It was when we were buying gear that the owner of the shop contacted Anil, the manager of the company I’m reviewing, and he offered us to match competition prices, he lend us some raincoats we were missing, and even kept our bags during the whole trip to Everest. He got us a guide from Lukla, the first town in the trek, and was an amazing guide, very friendly and humble, we’re still missing him, Kamal. During the trip we got very good lodges and food. The guide was not strict and he would no rush to get to the top. Decisions during the trek were made by us and the guide and by no means we were forced to do anything if we did not want to. Also Anil was always trying to contact us to know how the trek was going and by the end of the trip he took us to a great dinner back in Kathmandu. He even helped us to get a flight to Thailand, our next destination, when we were leaving Nepal. In short, Anil and Kamal’s service exceeded our expectations :) Thanks for everything!!
