Trekking Team Group was recommended me by a friend who has made trekking tour with them two years back. As we were travelling with kids, we decided to take culture tour and we are glad that we choose this trip. All my boys liked it very much. We had excellent guide Tika and perfect driver Ash who were extraordinary. They were very friendly, positive attitude, sense of humor and always taking care of my boys and making sure they love every moment in Nepal.
My boys had great time with them and become good friend with Tika and Ash, they were crying to leave Tika and Ash at the airport when we were leaving for home.

I would highly recommend TTG for cultural tours and family holidays.
Namaste!

“A Great Introduction to Nepal”

In March we made our first visit to Nepal. We were looked after really well by Shreehari and his staff.
The trip was a great success, and gave us a good insight into the culture, customs, and way of life of the people, as well as some spectacular views of the mountains, and a close-up look at the wildlife. We were fortunate that Shreehari was able to accompany us on some of our excursions. He was able to give us extensive information about the land, buildings and people that we saw.
We wholeheartedly recommend Trekking Team Group to anyone looking to have a touring / trekking holiday in Nepal.

I chose UNISCO HERITAGE SITE to make my first holiday in  Nepal  as I am not a keen trekker. Going into it, I assumed it would be fun and exciting but my expectations were thoroughly surpassed. Nepal itself is beautiful, peaceful, and welcoming. The culture is rich and quiet; leaving space to put your own personalized touch on your experience. Shree from TTG  suggested a great combination of destinations, from the Everest Experience flight  to the jungles of Chitwan. The accommodations were always above and beyond what I expected. While I was prepared for limited accommodations (running water, heating optional, electricity varied) most places made sure the stay was comfortable, if not luxurious. Our guides, Goku and driver Krishna, were knowledgeable, friendly, safe, and enjoyable. They really helped to shape my experience and help me get the most out of it. 
Nepal will forever hold a special place in my heart, and my amazing experience is credited much to the facilitation of Trekking Team Group. I highly recommend the tour I went on, and assume their others are equally amazing. I can't wait to go back and revel in the beauty of Nepal.

Additional Information

This is ADVENTURE travel, and many of the trip destinations in this site are remote areas, within under developed countries, where events are less predictable than is usually the case in. The unexpected is the norm in these areas and, despite painstaking planning and organization, our adventure trips can never be taken for granted like regular trips. Many of the places that we visit do not have the same quality of emergency health and safety services that you are used to in the developed world. Internal flights can be canceled, road transport is generally uncomfortable and unreliable, and hotels often do not approach the standards of the West.

IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED FOR THIS, YOU SHOULD NOT TRAVEL WITH US.This unpredictability also means that the itineraries that we put forward for each of our trips should be seen as statements of intent, rather than as contractual obligations. A variety of factors, including weather, transport difficulties and political instability, might dictate that we change any itinerary. The trip leader will make any changes that are necessary, after consultation with the group. Only rarely will such changes be significant, and we will always do everything within our powers to minimize the effects of the enforced changes. We cannot be held responsible for the results of changes or delays, irrespective of how they are caused.
