    Such a Great tour company ...very HIGHLY recommended !!

    Julie D, AustraliaTrip Date: January 03, 2024

    I am an experienced business and tourist traveller, and I've organised trips myself and via tour companies over many years,  I am just SO impressed by the services offered by Rising Adventure which is owned and operated by Chandan.  In fact I cannot recommend this company HIGHLY enough!!!  

    My adult daughter and her friends booked via Chandan about 4 years ago for a trek.  Based on their positive experience, we decided to utilise this company again.  During this trip there were five in our group; three doing a trek and two including myself who wanted to travel in part separately and more broadly,   Chandan managed to work out affordable and excellent options for us all.  We had some days together, then apart covering the different interests and then back together again.   His coordinated efforts which we arranged in advance meant tbat I could literally sit back and relax and know that everything was taken care of.  This included pickup and drop off from airports,  hotels, busses, domestic airlines etc..and a number of meals were also included.  Rising adventure's services also included help with various unexpected problems eg money issues for our ongoing trip to India, problems with busses I had arranged separately, not to mention a delicious and very special "goodbye" dinner with -Chandan personally, his delightful wife and our lovely trek guide the night before our departure from Kathmandu.  

    If you are looking for brilliant service at a VERY reaonsable price, Rising adventure is the company for you.   This is so highly recommended!

    Be prepared for a good kind of shock by such rapid meeting with the Mother of Mountains :)

    Mark Ka_bdor-Marcus Polus JR, HungaryTrip Date: January 01, 2024

    The intro, planning:

    Finally, after a lot of planning and ban because of an unfortunate and sad heli crash, back to July, limitations, restrictions... we could make this happen in December: Kalaphatar heli tour. Chandan was so patient, all the time with me from distant too, as someone who represents Nepal's overall culture and shiny side very well! He was attentive all the way and treated me like a family member. He even visited me in the hotel before the day of the flight, what is unusual in the days of growing technocracy. We could've solved the payment online too, but he felt as well important to meet in person, to build friendship and to be the face of his country.
    He is really respectful too, and thankful if there is mutual trust and the love of that mountaneous area. As well he took notes about we discussed all the way to improve the business, so that is full humbleness too.
    As we had of course some issues and logistics or to get ground of common understanding too, and things to be resolved, but for now all those are gone.
    I'll definitely be his contributor in the 'Western' Region, and hope to bring him more and more Customers! I really hope that I was not the first and last of it but only the pioneer of this exact type of adventure from our region(s).

    About the flight itself:

    It was a bit too rushy, but by the hour, so no big complaints. I actually wanted to do a kind of record-breaking experiment again (just when I went beyond the Northern and South Circle (66) just in 2 weeks, 2-2 times), to have this all packed into a day (or much less), so nothing to push onto Chandan, who just tried to help in this. ;) Yes, I had that much time left that I could do a bit of city tour, and still arrived for my 9PM flight to the airport, hours before...
    The pilot was originally fun and everything started smooth, however it was a bit uncertain where we are at a certain moment during the tour, so a bit more communication and agreements beforehand could've been better to get sync between him and the Company, as well maybe, and/or if Chandan or another rep. would fly too, it may be easier. This gap is just about the communication segment, since I felt myself all the time safe, we agreed about the heli's parameters are so fitting to that area (much more than a plane's would) and had a good mood chat about the mountains, but there was still a bit of uncertainty left, what should be the exact spots for scenic view, and how many times and where to stop and so. All may be about time vs. money (both were quite fixed for that time between Company and Customer), but neither should be a surprise (less or more) for none of the parties in the story, but should be figured out and not only by intuitions or indications but in advance, and not 'inside' the experience.
    Otherwise yes, the pilot was a real expert, the heli was nice and the views... look at the pictures and you'd want to be there right now! :)
    I got some friends too on the way, it was a nice meeting with hikers, sherpas and those who we picked up on the way. So it was a good improvisation of local-feeling too, outside the hotels too.

    Annapurna Circuit Trek

    Valentin D, MexicoTrip Date: December 25, 2023

    Trekking with Rising Adventure in Nepal is really hassle-free! From our very first thoughts on doing the Annapurna Circuit Trek to actually planning and doing it - Chandan was there to help us and advise us on each concern or question we had. Everything we needed was taken care of - booking hotels, taxis and all in between. Communicating with him is a breeze and takes all your worries away.

    The trek itself was very enjoyable and extremely well-organised. At each step our guide Hari was making sure we have the best possible conditions and was very caring. He got use of each opportunity to bring us closer to the local culture, traditions and way of living, telling us multiple stories and introducing us to locals on the way which was one of the best parts except for the stunning views all around all day long!

    I would definitely recommend both the ACT and Rising Adventure as a great match for anyone looking for exploring the beauty of Nepal.

    Final tip - Staying in Pokhara in the end of our journey just two days after the trek wasn't enough for us to get some rest and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. There are so many good activities and food spots this city offers that you can spend at least 4 days or up to week if you can afford it.

    Manaslu Circuit with Chandan's Team

    Roman Raab, EstoniaTrip Date: October 30, 2023

    We did a Manaslu circuit and thanks to Rising Adventure it was an awesome experience. Chandan took care of all our needs, including the after programme in Chitwan NP and Lumbini. The trek went smoothly mostly because of guidance of Sundar, the best guide in the field. He was very professional and never put in doubt our ability to reach the Larke pass. Also our porters Lekvadu and Radzan were friendly and smily and helped us not only with the heavy luggage, but also with serving food and even performed music at the resting points.
    We have chosen Rising Adventure without any knowledge of their team, but it was the best choice we did for this journey and I recommend them to everyone interested in trekking in Nepal and discovering this beautiful country.

    Trip of a lifetime - Manaslu!

    Carole M, ChileTrip Date: October 29, 2023

    We chose Rising Adventure to do the Manaslu Circuit and Tsum Valley Trek in October 2023. From day one we had an amazing time. Our guide Abinash was not only professional and knowledgeable he also took care of all our needs and made the trip one of our most memorable trekking experiences to date. I would recommend Abinash as a guide to any future traveller to Nepal. Thank you once again Abinash.
