    Excellent Tour

    I had an excellent tour of Kathmandu with Siri…he was extremely knowledgeable and allowed me to take my time to enjoy each site. The sites we visited were each unique and a pleasure to experience in person with siri`s stories and history lessons. He answered all of my questions with great detail. I highly recommend this Company to get introduced to Kathmandu and Nepali culture in general.

    Adventure and Pilgrimage

    was an amazing trip and very unique. It was made possible by extraordinary guides and drivers.
    We were met by the lovely Asmita who went to extra mile to prepare us for our trip, and to be sure we had all we needed . She could not be more charming and helpful.
    On day, one we were driven to the border, very expertly by Raju accompanied by Kersang. We needed an expert as the roads were very windy and not in good condition but it was exciting and we could take in the wonderful scenery and the interesting villages that we passed.
    After we crossed , the border which took some time we were met by Tarkye our guide and Cedun our driver. Tarkye was a very mature calm guide, solicitous knowledgeable and very caring. Cedun our driver was also very considerate and helpful which we as a group needed as many of us had not fully anticipated the effects of the high altitude.
    However, we were shepherded in an extraordinary manner through magnificent mountainous terrain , and lake filled scenery seeing yaks and other animals on the way. The monasteries were beautiful and Tarkye could answer any questions we had.
    This unique and extraordinary trip delivered exactly what it promised. There was a great deal of driving which could be tiring but this was specified up front.
    Overall, this was an amazing trip, but it was more physically demanding than anticipated because of the altitude and also being in a relatively small enclosed vehicle carrying 12 people with no space in between each person if one person gets sick it spreads through the group has happened for us. Nevertheless this tour is a once in a lifetime experience in a country as yet relatively undiscovered by western tourists.
    Outshine as a company is exemplary and highly recommended. Many thanks

    Best trip ever !

    Thank you Asmita & the whole team of Outshine Adventure for making this great tour possible. We've been in safe hands with a very sympathic guide and driver that conveyed us a lot of knowledge about the fascinating culture in Tibet. Highly recommended, Haiko & Manuela from Germany.

    Amazing Trip to Tibet !

    Outshine adventures and their partners in Tibet were superb. Asmita and Gokul in Nepal were excellent and Tarkye and Tsedun in Tibet were superb. The trip by its nature is challenging but we could not have wished for a more organised company

    Great trek, great company, great guides!

    My sister and I went on a trek with Outshine in January. We went to the Langtang Valley and had an amazing time. Outshine made everything easy. Gokul and Asmita were helpful and responsive organizing logistics and getting us ready. The hike was unbelievably beautiful but the real highlight was getting to spend the week with our guide Som and porter Prakass. They were so kind, professional, funny, smart and fun. They taught us so much about the region history, ecology and cultures and were patient enough to teach us Nepali and let us try to use it!! We knew our guides would be great, but we didn’t expect them to be so funny and fun! They kept us laughing so hard. We felt very looked after, cared for, and safe with their guidance. We couldn’t have imagined a better experience and if we return to Nepal someday we will absolutely hire Outshine Adventures again. Thank you Gokul, Asmita, Som and Prakass! It was a experience we will never forget.

    Fantastic Tour Of Nepal in 21 Days

    We have done a very complete trip, 21 days, with Outshine Adventure
    We have visited, with a guide in Spanish, Kathmandu, Nagarkot, Panautí, Chitwan Pokhara, and the Tibet.
    Both the organization (thanks Asmita) and the guide (Badri) and the drivers (and the van and the Jeeps) were very good.
    We found horrible roads, which were difficult to travel, but tolerable, and a beautiful country, with charming people who accepted our presence naturally. We visited wonderful places. Both the chaos and bustle of Kathmandu, the beauty of the towns and cities, the Chitwan park, and the grandeur of the Mustang landscapes
    An unforgettable trip.

    Excelente viaje con Outshine Adventure

    Que contáis viajeros? Dejo aquí mi reseña de la segunda visita a Nepal, un país que me encanta. Como dije es mi segunda visita a este hermoso país, en la anterior fue combinada con visita a Tibet, por lo que no tuve el tiempo necesario para recorrerlo, hacer treking y demás actividades. Para esta larga estadía y largo viaje a través de las montañas, explorar el Reino perdido de Mustang y llegar al Terai a visitar a Budha elegí a la empresa Outshine Adventure, que ya había conocido en mi anterior viaje, en la persona de su mánager y propietario Gokul Sapkota. Si hablas solo español aquí estas en las manos perfectas, el habla muy bien español y tiene guías como “Siri” que lo hablan casi perfecto. Buen servicio de guiado, su hotel es cómodo, con un personal excelente, los chicos de allí son muy cordiales, esta bien aseado todo, el desayuno es bueno, organizan todo para ti, Gokul esta todo el día pendiente del servicio consultando si todo esta bien, si los guías son buenos, si el chofer (vaya que buen chofer, hemos viajado cientos de kilómetros por esas rutas imposibles) y todo fue de la mejor manera, yyyy mira que allí hay que conducir!!! me saco el sombrero.Hemos realizado cuanta actividad quisimos, hicimos treking a Namche Bazar, somos personas ya grandes, Claudia nunca había hecho treking en las montañas, y vaya debut!! Aterrizar en Lukla es una experiencia fuera de lo común, allí nos esperaba “Raj” si vas a Lukla busca este guía, se llama Tek Raj Tamang, el no habla español pero si un perfecto ingles, un joven muy amistoso, amable, educado, con una voluntad de atender al cliente digna de mencionar. Vaya que es paciente, Claudia lo ama por su ayuda y colaboración, para ella llegar a Namche significaba un esfuerzo enorme y con la ayuda de Raj lo logro, lloramos de la emoción al llegar a ese hermoso lugar. Si lees esto, muchas gracias Raj por tan hermosa experiencia compartida. No olvidaremos nunca el regreso a “Surkey” bajo esa lluvia torrencial para tomar el helicóptero. Bueno el vuelo en helicóptero fue fantástico. De allí nos fuimos con “Siri” otro guía excepcional, habla perfecto español, una parte del viaje nos acompaño Gokul el dueño al “Reino perdido de Mustang” al otro extremo de Nepal, un lugar fantástico, muy similar a mi tierra aquí en Patagonia Argentina. Todo un itinerario de vuelo a Pokhara, de allí vehículo, con experiencias inolvidables, compartiendo en casas de lugareños la cocina, pueblos en medio de esa lejanía, monasterios, no quedo nada por ver y aprender de la cultura local. De allí nos fuimos al otro extremo, El Terai con la frontera de India, Lumbini. A visitar a Budha y cumplir algo muy personal junto a Claudia. Como verais hemos dado la vuelta a Nepal en 30 días de viaje, todo resulto fantástico, un viaje con mayúsculas. Todos los servicios ofrecidos se cumplieron, y los que no fueron por razones de causa mayor como el clima, era época del monzon, por lo que surgieron dificultades que fueron resueltas de manera excelente, buscando alternativas, otros medios de viaje, comidas adicionales, estadías no programadas, una atención de primera. Nosotros viajamos para conocer la cultura, visitar lugares hermosos, estar en contacto con la gente, no buscamos lujos, si un muy buen servicio de atención personalizada, no viajamos en grupos porque no nos gusta, lo hacemos solos y buscamos esta clase de atención brindada, la cual reitero fue excelente para cumplir nuestro viaje. Quizás alguna vez volveremos a caminar por Thamel y visitar estos amigos de Outshine Adventure y caminar con “Raj” por la base del Everest.Si viajas allí pide por “Raj” y “Siri” (si necesitas hablar en español), no te defraudaran. Buen Viaje amigos!!!What do you say travelers? I leave here my review of the second visit to Nepal, a country that I love. As I said, it is my second visit to this beautiful country, the previous one was combined with a visit to Tibet, so I did not have the time necessary to explore it, do trekking and other activities. For this long stay and long trip through the mountains, exploring the lost Kingdom of Mustang and reaching the Terai to visit Budha, I chose the company Outshine Adventure, which I had already met on my previous trip, in the person of its manager and owner Gokul Sapkota. If you only speak Spanish, you are in perfect hands here, he speaks Spanish very well and he has guides like “Siri” who speak it almost perfectly. Good guide service, your hotel is comfortable, with excellent staff, the guys there are very friendly, everything is well cleaned, the breakfast is good, they organize everything for you, Gokul is attentive to the service all day long, checking if everything is Well, if the guides are good, if the driver (what a good driver, we have traveled hundreds of kilometers on those impossible routes) and everything went in the best way, yyyy look, you have to drive there!!! I take off my hat.We have done as much activity as we wanted, we trekked to Namche Bazar, we are grown people, Claudia had never trekked in the mountains, and what a debut!! Landing in Lukla is an unusual experience, “Raj” was waiting for us there. If you go to Lukla, look for this guide, his name is Tek Raj Tamang, he does not speak Spanish but he does speak perfect English, a very friendly, kind, polite young man, with a desire to serve the customer worth mentioning. Wow, he is patient, Claudia loves him for her help and collaboration, for her getting to Namche meant an enormous effort and with Raj's help she achieved it, we cried with emotion when we arrived at that beautiful place. If you read this, thank you very much Raj for such a beautiful shared experience. We will never forget returning to “Surkey” in that torrential rain to take the helicopter. Well the helicopter flight was fantastic. From there we went with “Siri”, another exceptional guide, who speaks perfect Spanish, for part of the trip Gokul, the owner, accompanied us to the “Lost Kingdom of Mustang” at the other end of Nepal, a fantastic place, very similar to my land here in Patagonia. Argentina. An entire flight itinerary to Pokhara, from there by vehicle, with unforgettable experiences, sharing cuisine in the homes of locals, towns in the middle of that distance, monasteries, there was nothing left to see and learn about the local culture. From there we went to the other end, The Terai with the Indian border, Lumbini. To visit Budha and accomplish something very personal with Claudia. As you can see, we have gone around Nepal in 30 days of travel, everything turned out fantastic, a trip with capital letters. All the services offered were fulfilled, and those that were not were due to major reasons such as the weather, it was monsoon season, so difficulties arose that were resolved in an excellent way, looking for alternatives, other means of travel, additional meals, stays unscheduled, first-class care. We travel to get to know the culture, visit beautiful places, be in contact with people, we do not look for luxuries, but a very good personalized attention service, we do not travel in groups because we do not like it, we do it alone and we look for this kind of attention provided , which I reiterate was excellent to complete our trip. Maybe sometime we will hike Thamel again and visit these friends from Outshine Adventure and hike with “Raj” around the base of Everest.If you travel there ask for “Raj” and “Siri” (if you need to speak Spanish), they will not disappoint you. Good trip friends!!!
