Trip Reviews
During our Nepal tour there was not enough time for long trek and our friends recommended to have some hiking nearby the city so I contacted many agencies in Thamel. However Trekking Team Group have a wonderful programs for anyone. We explained our requirements to Shree and he immediately organized the trip with very smooth operation. Goku was a friendly guide who helped in this one day trip. Kakani to Jhor was really fun experience with light adventure. We encountered mountains, thick forest, villages and some wildlife.

Additional Information
This is ADVENTURE travel, and many of the destinations on this site are in remote, underdeveloped areas where unpredictability is the norm. Despite careful planning and organization, our adventure trips can’t be taken for granted like regular trips. Many of the places we visit lack the emergency health and safety services you’re used to in the developed world. Internal flights can be canceled, road transport is often uncomfortable and unreliable, and hotel standards may not match those of the West.
If you’re not prepared for this, you shouldn’t travel with us. The unpredictability also means that our itineraries are statements of intent, not contractual obligations. Factors such as weather, transport difficulties, and political instability might require us to change any itinerary. The trip leader will make any necessary changes after consulting with the group. Such changes are rarely significant, and we always do our best to minimize their impact. However, we cannot be held responsible for changes or delays, regardless of their cause.
