    Short Annapurna trek

    This trekking was one of the most amazing adventures of my life. I felt comfortable and supported in every moment by our incredible guide Gyan. He is also able to manage every situation properly and make us feel as team. About this trekking, I will take back to me to spend two things; - The landscape of your marvelous country - The professionality, experienced and friendship of Gyan.

    Very flexible, approachable and reliable

    My friend and I did a 7 days trek to Poon Hill and surroundings. It was a great experience with a great and experienced guide (Phurba). Just before starting our trekking my friend and I fell sick, and the agency was very understanding, easy to contact and very flexible.

    We received a refund and they even booked tickets from Pokhara to Kathmandu for us on request as part of the refund. It's a great company that I can recommend to anyone planning to go to Nepal.

    Excellent Service and Trek

    My partner and I visited Nepal for the first time; we wanted to do a short trek with only one week. And Dream Heaven Adventure recommends us Poon hill trek as we had short time. Everything was well managed. DHA and team made our dream come true by arranging the lifetime experience.
    Our Guide Gyan is amazing. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable. We had a great time in Mountain; everything was full mind of our extreme satisfaction. Thank you Dream Heaven Adventure and Team for everything! I will be back next year for Everest Base Camp Hike.
