To all trekkers,
We would like to enthusiastically recommend Hiran Magar as a Trekking and Tour organizer/Guide.
We did the Jomsom trek with Hiran as Guide from Dec 8-19, 1998. He came highly recommended from friends who had just finished the entire Annapurna circuit with him.
His assistance to us was invaluable from the moment we set our plans, several days before trekking; he was with us every step of the way. He helped us to get our necessary permits for trekking and organize all tickets and equipment what we needed. He volunteered his time generously.
From the time we left Kathmandu, we were with us every step of the way. From genuine concern when we were sick (Kristina in Jomsom) of in plain (both of us suffered bad knees) , to arranging our daily meals, accommodations and other activities, we absolutely felt comfortable with his hands.
Hiran exceeded our expectations in many ways. He is extremely responsible, patient and thoughtful. Hiran and Tikka (his cousin) always went out be their way to make sure we were comfortable. We always had extra blankets, it there was ever doubt. About room availability, Hiran would send Tikka ahead so as not to push us.
Overall, we had an excellent trekking experience. When we return to Nepal next time, we will be sure to contact Hiran again.
If you are interested in seeing what the Jomsom trek was like from our perspective, please check our website www.wired2theworld.com, if you have any other questions; feel free to write us at krisdave@rcn.com.
Sincerely,
Kristina and David, San Francisco, USA |
