Client Reviews

I went as a solo traveller to EBC and really appreciated the support at Discover Altitude - they made me feel very safe and comfortable and it felt like they were genuinely concerned about me having a good experience! They provided lots of helpful information to allow me to be well prepared for the trek. Highly recommended!

A friend recommended Discover Altitude to me and trekking with them has been nothing short of amazing. They of course have all the basics of getting you out there, creating a wonderful experience, and returning you safely covered. What sets them apart though is the quality of people that they are. They spent time that I needed with me to make sure I was ready to go, checked in with both me and the guide along the way, and were responsive at all hours of the day whenever I had a request. They are very competitively priced for solo trips with a guide or if you are going out as a group. Call or stop by to talk with them and even if you decide that you don't need a guide they will still gladly set up jeeps and flights to ease the logistic burden for you like they did for one of my friends who went out a few days after me. I can't recommend them highly enough! I know I will be returning to Nepal with some friends in the future and there isn't another trekking company that I would trust with my trip more than Discover Altitude.

Annapurna circuit from a vague idea to departure in a few days: As we arrived in Kathmandu our hotel kindly got us in touch with Discover Altitude. We planned our itinerary and after three days we were already on our way. Santosh helped us to buy gear, since we had literally none. He also kept in touch with us all the time whenever we had even the tiniest request. We departed with our guide Amar and Porter Hari. With them it felt like visiting your family for two weeks: they took care of everything. The only thing we had to do by ourselves was walking and taking care of basic hygiene:) it felt so natural, that just now writing this review, I start to feel very sad about all of this coming to an end.
We had, what I’ve felt the best food and the best accommodation. It was all planned out through and through and we never doubted anything.
I will not write about my impressions of the trip itself and all what we have seen, which is a lot - there are not enough words to describe it. You have to experience it for yourself. All I can say about it: it is the best thing we both have ever done and it will stay in our hearts for ever. Thank you!!!
AND: What stood out to me was the warmth and respect the guys showed for each other. One example: on our way to Throng La we noticed a group of three Americans from another company. Their porters were loaded with up to 30kg each. 30KG!!!! Imagine that! We saw those poor porters stumbling up the hill and seriously putting their health at risk. When I asked Santosh, how much we could pack, he said: 15 to 17 at max for 2 ppl. In retrospect this showed me that not only they cared for us, but also for their coworkers!
As we are happy to finally get a hot shower and relax in a chair drinking a tea in Pokhara, at the same time I am devastatingly sad to part with Amar and Hari. I have to stop now, since I am getting very emotional…Annapurna circuit from a vague idea to departure in a few days: As we arrived in Kathmandu our hotel kindly got us in touch with Discover Altitude.

Had a greasy time in Kathmandu, Chitwan, Pokhara, and Lumbini. Kumar and Santosh answered all questions and concerns, provided excellent guidance of area temples and Hinduism, as well as good spots for local cuisine, and where to get local made art. Pashupatinath, Monkey Temple, and Durbar Square were my favorite spots in Kathmandu. Discover Altitude also arranged my rides and accommodations for Chitwan and onto Pokhara. Can’t say enough good things about Discover Altitude. Excellent business!

It was really amazing to trek with Discover Altitude our guide (Mr. Bhakta Dai) was wonderful and made our trip more special. Thank you

I had a wonderful trek. Discover Altitude executed a very good plan. The guide was also very helpful.

Santosh, Kumar and our guide Amar were all fantastic - we completed an 8-day trek through part of the Annapurna circuit including Thorang La Pass (5400m) and it went incredibly smoothly thanks to the extensive knowledge and planning by the team.

Highly recommend Discover Altitude. Will definitely be using them again.

Discover Altitude were amazing from picking us up from Kathmandu airport at the start to finishing our stay in Nepal. Everything was organised by the company. Our guide Amar was also amazing, helping us out every step of the way on our hike.
