Hi Suresh!
I’m glad that Richard and his group got a hold of you! We had a great time in Nepal with your company and everyone was thrilled with the trip that we had! The 8 hour bus ride to and from Kathmandu is the only thing that our group would have changed! The drive to the push-in point was a bit stressful, but we realize there is nothing you can do about road conditions! We really loved that your company is Nepali run and we felt like we got a chance to experience real Nepali culture in the areas that we camped. We are recommending your company to anyone who is headed to Nepal! I asked the group for feedback for you and will forward on the comments!
If/when I am able to return to Nepal I will definitely get in touch!
Thanks again!

I would def book with them again if I were doing the same type of thing
-food was great and they are accommodating to preferences, meat/ no meat, allergies
-I don’t think there is much they could do about the bus and I kind of liked the nitty grittiness of it..
wouldn’t change the trek there, anything else would not fit so well with the whole package of being in Nepal.

Jodi Richardson
Pros: good food with daily variety and something everyone liked (even heather the vegan!), friendly and helpful guides, good locations to camp, good safety for rafting (the guides knew what they were doing, were experienced + the kayakers who followed, although your helmet was a bit dodgy) Perhaps more of a safety check before going on the water!
Accommodating -- really nice how they went out of their way to get wood and make a camp fire for us, as well as bring us beer. They didn't have to so that was really cool. Heather Freelend

I don’t really have anything to compare it to as I’ve never done a trip like this before. I felt that they looked after us quiet well. There was plenty of food and I really appreciated that they accommodated for my diet. The staff were all friendly and helpful and they made sure we were safe during the rafting. I think we definitely got our moneys worth and I would consider using them again. I also appreciated being collected from and taken to the airport at no extra cost.

Ms Leah Bramley
thanks for taking such good care of us ... it really was a great trip! Have checked out the 10 ten rivers in the world and they say the Kenali (Sp??) is one of the best - so just may be heading back to check it out! Seriously though i am interested in Bhutan and Tibet so maybe next school year ...

Mission accomplished : intially we were quiet disappointed as our preplanned programme couldn't be materialized in pokara, we really felt very bad.But to our great luck Shakti Ttravels provided us with a alternative option of Manakamana and Mankamana was exactly what we were looking for and truly it was much more than our expectation than the original programme scheduled in pokara.

we really appreciate excellent organization and best possible option provided by Shakti Travels and would like thank sagun for everything he did to make our project dream come true.

It's very difficlut for us to explain how happy we are !!

Thanks again and hoping to seeing you again in your beautiful country.

Namaste
We had an absolutely fantastic time in India. The representatives from the travel agent, the english speaking guides, the driver and his assistant were all brilliant and were very helpful and informative.
The only problem we had was with the hotel Jaypee in Delhi. We found them very pushy and in fact we found it difficult to get the staff out of our bedrooms. Of course we tipped all the staff well however if they brought us slippers they would not leave until we gave them a tip. It was very off putting. Also some of the staff at reception were quite rude and were in fact very arrogant. I did talk to the representative in Delhi and he apologised and said they would not use that hotel again.

The hotel in Agra was fantastic and thank you for upgrading us to it. The whole trip was magical and I will have no hesitation in recommending your agency to all my friends and colleagues.
Thanks again to Hari for all his help. He was a pleasure to work with. Please pass on my comments and gratitude to the travel agent in India. Fantastic

We really enjoyed being in Nepal.We toured Kathmandu Valley,Pokhara,Bandipur,Tiger Tops at Chiwan and has full knowledge about Nepal of its culture social life,as well as the political scenarios of Nepal.The election for the construction assembly was just over and Maoist party came as a largest body in Nepal.We happened to see the euphoria of the winning party as we saw people chanting slogans of victory in the Pokhara bazaar.We met many high level leaders in the course of our conversation with them which resulted a great help in the making of our proposed ducumentary film.So,to sum up, the overhall tour in Nepal was very successfull and all the members in our team found Nepal trip as one of great success.

It was one of the best vacation I ever had.Mr Basu (Trekking Guide) was an excellent guide.He was always looking after me very well and his knowledge about the region as well as his many contacts in the area and gave me a very good information about people and mates in the Himalayas.I was able to form local Sherpa and lodge owners in their kitchen to see how they prepare the food and to take part in their dinners.

Mr Olaf John,Germany

We returned safely last night to Hong Kong and wanted to express our appreciation to everyone for an exciting and rewarding visit to Tibet.

The quality of the entire visit was very well handled by your team with great personal service and attentiveness including the transportation and food. We even managed to have an open fire during our time camping.

Feel free to refer any potential customers to me for a good reference.

Best and thanks for a memorable trip.

Namaste!
Greta and I want thank you for your help with our trip to Nepal. Even though the weather could have been better (less cloudy, more visibility, no washed out roads to Chitwa), and the Moaist's caused some last minute changes with our planning, we had a enjoyable time in Nepal.

Your staff was more than accomadating and helpful. The tour guide was very pleasant and I hope to meet up with Basu from our trek, if I am able to make it back to Nepal again.

I will be sure to pass your company name along to friends. Thanks again.
