An unforgetable experience!!

From the moment we booked our 7-day trip, which included a 5-day trek to Gosaikunda lake, we knew we were in good hands. Hiking Bees is a company that truly understands how to make a trip to Nepal unforgettable. Panchanga, our trip planner, was incredibly helpful and responsive. In just a few days, he provided us with multiple itineraries that were tailored to our needs and preferences. Once we selected our itinerary, Panchanga went above and beyond to ensure that our trip was seamless, from confirming our bookings to providing us with detailed airport transfer information. But what truly made our trip exceptional was our guide, Prem Dahal. From the moment we met him, we knew we had found a gem. Prem was not only hospitable and humble, but he was also incredibly knowledgeable and experienced. He took the time to explain the trekking plan to us and adjusted it to suit our needs, making sure to give us plenty of breaks and time to adjust as we climbed uphill. Prem also took care of all the logistical details, from organizing our lodging to preparing our meals while we trekked. His friendly and welcoming nature made the entire experience even more enjoyable. We loved learning from him about the local culture, religion, and mythology, and he even went above and beyond to ensure that we had the best possible experience. Our entire experience in Nepal was absolutely amazing, thanks to Hiking Bees and especially to Prem Dahal. We cannot recommend this company and this guide enough. If you are ever planning to trek in Nepal, request Prem Dahal as your guide. He will make your stay in Nepal unforgettable!

Great experience!

We hiked the Annapurna Curcuit Trek with our guide Samrat from Hiking Bees and it was one of the best experiences. Our guide was very helpful on the whole trek regarding planing the places to stay, finding the best routes (especially as we wanted to avoid the roads and walk alternative ways as much as possible) and giving advice on dealing with the high altitude. On the whole trek we felt safe and had a lot of fun enjoying the beautiful mountains. Even after the trek Samrat was there for us to help organize our further stay in Nepal. Thanks a lot to Hiking Bees and especially Samrat! :)

Relaxed and Beautiful Hiking

Hiking Bees arranged the Poon Hill trek for me and my daughter. We had an amazing time on the trek. Hiking Bees arranged everything for us, and the trek was tailored to our preferences and budget. Bishow the owner responded immediately to any questions. Our guide Bishesh was friendly and kind, and arranged everything for a smooth and enjoyable trek, including an incredible sunrise at Poon hill, swimming in mountains streams, and educating us about the local culture. I really recommend Hiking Bees for your visit to Nepal.

We love Bhoj and Subba

Me and my (Dutch) friends did a 7-day hike to Annapurna basecamp (ABC) and very much enjoyed ourselves and our guides. Our "package" included the accomodations, a retour ticket (bus / jeep from and to Pokhara) and one guide (due to another hiker joining our company we had two guides - sort of). The pace of the hike was doable, the guides provided ample opportunity to alter plans according to our needs. Throughout the hike both Bhoj and Shubba (i.e., the guides) provided us with small peeks into Nepalese culture and languages, such as playing incomprehensible cardgames with us - it was great fun and insightful! We would have loved if we could have extended our hike with a few more days, if only for their company (and the beautiful views). Some important points perhaps for future hikers: -Communication prior to the trip: all information was supplied, we felt well informed. The owner was friendly and approachable, it was easy to reach him per mobile for further questions. -Price / quality: cheapest of all hikers we met on our trail. -Any feedback?: the owner did request quite a lot of times for us to write a review (no problem ofcourse, here you go ;D!). TLDR: we had great fun and would definitely recommend hiking bees.

Prem the legend on Dal Bhat power: lol 24 hour

Having arrived in Nepal with no plan we met Bishow of Hiking bees. He left us a card after chatting for some time and wasn’t pushy at all. He was open to discuss any tours we might be interested in. We discussed over WhatsApp and settled on Poon hill for 5 days. The price was agreeable and Bishow promised us the best experience. We weren’t disappointed. Our guide Prem arrived at our hotel after a night bus having sorted all our permits out on no sleep and proceeded to take us on the bus and to complete day one . Prem was an absolute legend even on no sleep. He dealt with everything as part of the tour (food accommodation and permits). Drinks typically aren’t included but all food and sleeping is. Dal Bhat seems like it’s bottomless (power for 24 hour ask Prem) Absolute gentleman and very knowledgeable about the different trails. Totally flexible and the trip evolved to suit our needs. We are finally back in Pokhara but feel like we are missing part of us now Prem isn’t here. Picking the right guide is important as you spend the whole time together. I couldn’t recommend these guys high enough would definitely use them again.
