Providing good service
Himal helped me book flights to Lukla and arrange a porter. Upon arrival in Kathmandu, I went to his office, paid for the flight, received the tickets, and he told me a porter would be waiting for me at Lukla airport (even though I arrived 6 hours late). I requested a porter who spoke some English, and I got one (around US$20 per day and he carried 20 kg for me and my friend). By the time we reached each village, he had already arranged accommodations.
Himal can arrange a guide or anything else you need in any part of Nepal. He is professional and efficient. It was a leap of faith to use his service, as I found him on the internet as I just needed a porter and flights, not a whole tour, and wanted to do it on our own, for a good price. Himal arranged this for us.
If you plan on doing the Everest Base Camp trek, hire a porter, drink 5 liters of water a day, and add an extra day to the trek. We added in 3 extra days, took it slower, and we didn’t even get a headache.
Himal is definitely worth using. He made my trek stress-free and arranged everything for my arrival in Nepal.
