How disappointed I was when my Himalaya trek with an English company fell through. Googling ‘trekking in Nepal with kids’ bought me to the site of ‘Swiss Family Trekking’. What a great find and I am so glad the original holiday was cancelled. My 11 year old son and I had the most fantastic holiday in Nepal. As well as trekking in the most amazing landscapes of Annapurna Conservation Area (Ghorepani, Poon Hill, Ghandruck) with a lovely guide, we also enjoyed, hot springs a spa hotel, jungle exploration, elephant rides, white water rafting, cultural experiences and made new friends. I cannot recommend SFT highly enough for the prompt response to my many questions, the tailor made itinerary that covered everything we wanted and more, and the smooth and efficient organisation from the moment we arrived at Kathmandu airport the airport to the time our bags were checked in to leave. We felt truly looked after. And not to forget, great value for money.
We loved Nepal and will definitely come back, and it will certainly be with SFT again. Thank you Stephan, and team.
