What an incredible tour company. Ee were a group of 6 from Australia and we did a treck to EBC and Bikal, Aiming adventure's manager, made sure everything was smooth from the beginning. We got more than we were expecting; from the lukla flights to accommodation everything was above our expectations e.g we got private toilet rooms where available. We were 3 couples on different itineraries and Bikal was accomodating to each of us.

The guides, Mani and Binot, were very professional, friendly and caring. They were always aware of our group condition and never pushed us beyond our capabilities. Their English was excellent and took care of everything everyday. Even the porters were very friendly and always had a smile on them.

Unfortunately i got very sick during the hike but Mani, Binot and Bikal took matters into their own hands, took me to a clinic in Namche and directly talked to my insurance and organized for a helicopter evacuation; i didn’t have to do anything. Our guide Mani spent the night at the clinic and was always wih us until the evacuation. I was airlifted and in hospital in Kathmandu the next day by 10AM. I was in the first helicopter out of Namche that day and there was an ambulance waiting for us at the airport. Without them and their fast actions, my condition could have been much worse.

Their fast acting and kindness made all the difference. We always felt safe and in good hands. I highly recommend Aiming Adventure and Bikal’s team. We are very thankful for life.

Ruben from Australia.

We had an incredible experience all made possible by the excellent service from Aiming Adventure.

Bikal and his team looked after us every step of the way. From customising our itinerary to suit our exact needs, to greeting us at the airport or farewelling us before our return trip back home, the service we received was outstanding and delivered in typical warm Nepalese style. We completed the EBC trek with guides Mani and Binod who were patient, friendly and had a wealth of experience and guidance to help us complete what was a challenging trek. We could not have completed it without them.

We feel very lucky to have found such a caring and considerate travel company and highly recommend them to anyone wanting the ultimate Himalayan experience.

I would highly recommend Aiming Adventures for any trekking you choose to do in Nepal! This was my first trek and going solo I was nervous about navigating this journey as my first international trip. Machhiri was an amazing guide made me comfortable in this new environment every step of the way. We had a great time, pushed our limits on the mountain and saw some spectacular views. Cannot commend this company enough.

Review of: Trek to Everest Base Camp

I really enjoyed doing the 3 high passes, it was my first time doing this kind of trek and every staff member were making sure that we were feeling good for the next day! Im glad everything went well and I really appreciated the company of my guide Chetan and the two porter Youbaraj and Janga
I highly recommand Aiming Adventure!

We didn’t originally plan to get a guide and porter for this trek but we are beyond happy we changed our minds and booked through Aiming Adventure! Firstly Bikal is easy to organise your trek with, nothing is too much hassle and he is always on hand to help. Our guide and porter were the loveliest people, they took care of me when I was unwell, made sure we made it to base camp and were always smiling. Again nothing was too much for them both. Highly recommend Roman as a guide!! Couldn’t fault the trip and we would recommend aiming adventure to anyone going to Nepal.

Short Annapurna Basecamp trecking with Aiming Advanture was excellent life time experiences with our family members of 5. We really enjoyed the treck with professional guide and experienced portors. We highly recommend for Aiming Adventure for ABC , EBC and any other services they provide for Himalayan adventure in Nepal.

What a trip! They did such a great job at Aiming adventures to make our trip memorable and fun. Our guide Machhiri was knowledgeable, safe, and made sure we had a great time even during bad weather! He went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our hikes, took pictures, and helped us in every way. I was struggling with the hike and he was kind enough to take my bag anytime I had a hard time. He was detailed, straight forward and did the best on accommodations! Provided airport transport plus even took us around Kathmandu on our extra day in Nepal… I would recommend aiming adventures to all looking for a Himalayan trek.

PS: request Machhiri!!

I was a solo female traveler from Mexico ,my name is Fabiola and I had the most amazing experience with Aiming Adventure Company,Bikal always so helpful with every detail and met me personally at the hotel to discuss my needs and explain the details of my trek and my guide( Chetan Basnet) was always super helpful and taking care of every detail of the trip!!!even he was looking at my room before were leaving in case I forgot something ????, youbraj and jung which were carrying my bag and another travelers bag were soo amazing!!! They always smiling and helping in all their possibilities to make our trip easier!!! It was a not easy trip specially because not many people can do the three passes but thanks to them I did it!!!! They always believed that I could make it and gave me support!looking forward for the next adventure with them!!

Flexible itinerary. Fast response time. Quick organization. Great price / quality ratio. Overall amazing experience!

We originally signed up to do the Annapurna Base Camp Trek with Aiming Adventure in April 2020. Two pandemic delays later, we finally found ourselves in Nepal in October 2021. Traveling across the world to a foreign country and navigating their confusing visa process can be a bit daunting, but once we got out of the airport and met our guide, we felt like we were in good hands.

One of the best parts of Aiming Adventure is the attention to little details that other companies might not miss. We were always greeted at the tea houses with a hot drink and a plate of cookies, a nice touch after 8-9 hours of climbing up and down stairs. One of our porters double-checked our room for us each night to make sure we didn't forget anything. They put us up in nice hotels in Pokhara and Kathmandu and already had the jeeps to and from the trekking points arranged instead of making us use a much slower local bus.

Our guide knew many of the families running the tea houses and was able to pick the ones with the best service. We were thanked multiple times by the locals for coming back since their economy is so dependent on tourism. We even got lucky both at Poon Hill and ABC with the unseasonable late October rain stopping just enough to give us great views at both locations. We had a great time, and can't wait to go back in the future for another trek.

2023 update:
We just completed our second trek with Aiming Adventure, this time to Gokyo Ri. We were once again amazed at the quality of the service we received, even noticing some jealousy from other trekkers at the level of service we received. Machhire did an amazing job organizing everything and was as good a guide as we couldve hoped for. He made sure we were properly acclimatized and took care of everything we needed.

We will for sure use Aiming Adventure again next time we go to Nepal.

Great journey with Aiming Adventure to Everest Base Camp, Chola Pass and Gokyo Lake.

The support provided by our guide Karki Tej and his team helped my friends and I to realize our dream to complete the journey smoothly and safely!

The awesome leadership from Managing Director, Bikal Duwadi, ensure that we needs were met and changes to the itinerary quickly adapted.

Highly recommend to trek with Aiming Adventure for an unforgettable and fruitful trip!

Thank you very much once again!

Very cold weather with snow but warmed with the very friendly support of the Company's Guide, Tej Karki and 3 Porters for 5 of us trekkers. Views were amazing spectacular; we followed the itinerary daily. There was enough time for acclimatization and we completed EBC, Kalapathar, Chola Pass, Gokyo Lake and Gokyo Ri. The experience was priceless; wild and beautiful scenery everywhere. The Co, Guide and Porters were always around when we needed them.

I found them most professional especially Mr Bikal and his superb staff who go out of their way to solve any issues you have. Highly recommended.

My partner and I had no previous experience in trekking before we booked our holiday with Aiming Adventure, all we knew is that we wanted to see the Khumbu region and possibly make it to Mount Everest Base Camp.

I was looking on the company website and asked a few questions in the chat function that they have on their website, to which I got quick and clear responses. The communication later shifted to email, where I again, received quick clear and very professional and kind responses. They had multiple payment options, which was very nice because we were abroad when booking the trip.

Upon arrival at the airport our mountain guide (his name was Manu) gave us a warm welcome and rode with us to our hotel. The next day Manu and us started on our trip through the Khumbu region. We were with Manu for 12 days and he was absolutely great. I got personally sick due to food poisoning from our previous trip to India just days before arriving in Nepal. And my partner had slight altitude sickness. However, because of Manu his excellent optimism, knowledge and helpfulness we both made it safely to basecamp and back.

Upon arrival back in Kathmandu we were treaded to one last diner and then left the country. From arriving in Nepal, up until leaving, Aiming Adventures took great care of us and we are two very satisfied customers, looking back on a great trip that we would definitely recommend others.

Went EBC, Chola Pass and Gyoko Ri with AA. The guide is wonderful and the boss is resourceful in adjusting to our last min changes in plan. Everything was planned and arranged out well. Thumbs up

For me, without a doubt, the best company, best guides, best porters, best climbing guide, best service, they are the best in everything, thank you very much for providing the best experience of my life! I will definitely come back...

Without their self sacrifice and faithfulness to customer oriented service & knowledge and manyfold experience accumulated for long time on altitude sickness ,one of our team must have been in danger intimidating his life .
Thanks to guider's timely decision and prompt
raccion to carry him on their backs to the place away from the Gorakshep to Lobuche at night along rocky and frozen route in turn with porters. he might be in a desperate situation.
In a sense , I sincerely recommend all of dreamers for EBC Trekking to work with Aiming Adventure who is oriented to customers satisfaction and safety to the full

The tripe was hart but excellent. I train hart and I think if I didn't train i didn't make it .but i did make it . My guide Machhiri was so good .i am happy to do this tripe with Aiming adventure. They are a excellant company. I going back next year .

Aiming Adventure.
I did a ABC trek organised by Aiming Adventure and the experience and guidance was superb. I would recommend anyone to do this and the EBC trek with Aiming Adventure. Right from pickup at the Katmandu Airport to the drop off, everything was just superb and well organised. The guide Roman and porter Anup were exceptional in their work and always very attentive to our needs. Highly recommended....

Excellent service and definately would return to Aiming! Thank you for accommodating and also the extra help to the travel

Booked for EBC trek. The tour guide and porter did a great job in making the trip a success. Also had a chance to meet the owner who went over and above to make my stay in Kathmandu memorable. One recommendation is to take your time enjoying the scenery on your way up and not to rush it : )

Just a headsup, February is very cold.

Bikal and all his team were absolutely amazing, from the moment they welcome us at the airport (after 2 days of travel) we felt safe and surrounded by friends, we had the pleasure to have Chiran as our guide and let me tell you, if all the guides are as half good as him you will be in great hands, trekking to the base camp is the wildest thing I have ever done and was only possible because of the hard work, dedication and support I received from Chiran, Nepal has so much to offer but you DEFINITELY need help, a local expert to show you the best places, look no further, Buikal and his team are the best choice for your upcoming adventure!

Trek to EBC was a life time trip for me And my husband which was made possible by Aiming Adventure.
Bikal always responded to all my questions very patiently before booking, providing all information, always available for questions via WhatsApp. Then he organized this trek very well and at the end helped me a lot when I needed help. Thank you Bikal.
Without the support and patience from Manu, our guide, I probably couldn’t had finished the EBC trek.
Our porters were wonderful, always smiling and eager to please and help.
Choosing Aiming Adventure for organizing our trek in Nepal was a very good decision.
I strongly recommend Aiming Adventure wishing them all the best!

The best living experience so far. Thanks to the Aiming Adventure team for being there as a key support and allowing us to live and enjoy this wonderful and unforgettable experience. The guys were always so kind and made sure we all felt comfortable and safe. Extraordinary human beings!

I enjoyed Denbouche acclimatization day to about 5100m, steep climb but was misty and wonderful experience of going through different terrains to reach the top.

Also enjoyed reaching the big rock: Everest Basecamp. I did not know the rock is so huge. Climbing it for photos was an effort. I always thought people.just quickly jumped on and off the rock. The views of the ice capped mountains and the glaciers towards Basecamp ????????????????????? - I don't have words to explain how I felt. I would go again and again...

Another major highlight for me was the birthday cakes Aiming Adventures (Bika Diwali) organized for us. Three of us had our birthdays during the trek (1, 3 and 6 Oct). Company surprised us with cake and we also got Khadas from our guide Kipa Shepa, Porters Pemba and Rabin Shepa. A heartwarming experience that I will cherish forever ???? ????

Tjanm you very much Aiming Adventure for organizing this journey for us. We could nit do Island peak because if bad weather on the day we were supposed climb. The more reason to go back to the Himalayas ...

Very kind, patient, professional, helpful and flexible team. Both of our trek plans went very well, we were in good hands, thank you. The office also has a great location, which was really good in case we wanted to discuss something in person. Guides, porter, booked accomodation, food, everything was really nice, thank you.

the team, the attention and the professionalism, is what makes this experience a success. It is to admire the commitment that there was at all times. My admiration and congratulations. The recommendation for future travelers is that they prepare to live the experience of their lives. enjoy and eat a good cheesecake

We had a wonderful experience in Nepal from the moment we land in Kathmandu to Lukla when the hike started and to Basecamp. Exquisite views all the way. It felt like another planet. I am grateful to our team and support system who made the excursion joyful and possible:-Bikal, Machhri, Kipa, Pemba and Rabyn. They are beautiful and kind souls.

They lifted our spirits when the altitude and mountains were challenging. It was my first in my life hike to sleep in hotels and eat at restaurants all 3 daily meals all the way up and down.

We reached EBC for real, hey but those stairs and acclimatization up !!!!

Thank you very much Aiming Adventure team you are the best. Your service was out of this world up until our departure at the airport.

Had a wonderful trip to Annapurna Base Camp with Aiming Adventure. Had a few hiccups with our flights to Pokhara cancelled three times but made it by car. The trek was challenging , with great support from Roman, our guide, and Koshi, por porter. ABC is amazing, with clear skies when we reached there. Highly recommend Aiming Adventure.

Met a team of lovely Sherpa guides
The entire team was awesome
The trekking experience was awesome.
From da1 to the very last day.

Exactly 2 months ago I reached Everest Base Camp, April 12th 2022, the day that marks the achievement of one of my most ambitious goals to date, a bucket list tick, a longtime dream!!!
I hiked for 8 consecutive days until I reached “Everest Base Camp” @ 5,364masl, this was challenging in so many ways I wouldn’t know where to start, but I must say I’m really blessed and thankful for being able to live and experience such an amazing adventure!!!
None of this would’ve been possible without the help and guidance of Aiming Adventures and their Team. Mr Bikal planned everything very carefully and detailed for our team, our guides Mr Manu Magar (principal guide) always taking care of us along the way, with motivational words every morning and at the end of the day, making sure we were all doing good and in our best to continue the journey day to day, our assistant guides Machhiri Sherpa and Tilak Karki, very attentive, keeping our pace, making us company when the group got distanced, making sure we always had water throughout the day and our fruit and snack along our hikes and at the end of each day; and of course, last but not least our sherpas who we didn’t see often but without their help and hard work completing our goal wouldn’t be possible as they carry our weights everyday, we only carry our essentials, I couldn’t be more thankful and happy that all this team of amazing people took care of us during this amazing trip.
I learned along the way many things as the guides keep teaching us cultural and religious details as well as geography and everything there’s to know about those giant snowed mountains, I also learned that Nepalis celebrate the New Year during that week, and they gather to pray for prosperity and good luck; I believe nothing in life comes by chance, therefore may all the prayers and the blessings be with us for a lifetime, may all of us be happy, healthy and safe, may we have the strength and determination to live the life we want and may all of our dreams continue to come true.

-Maria Jose Rodriguez

Once again Aiming Adventure live up to what they do best . It was my second hike a year after with them….; the experience seems to be better and flawless. As usual Bikal made all necessary arrangements & logistics prior to arriving in Kathmandu which made the trek preparations very smooth and stay focus.
On the trail; there could not have been better companions than Roman & Santosh who both made this wonderful journey incredibly which left me a lot of deep memories. Roman & Santosh inspired confidence with great mountaineering professionalism .
Am looking forward for the next 3 Passes Trek in the future… with the «  dream team «  again.
Thank You all heartedly for this unique experience and God Bless You ????????????

-Ziad Sjennis

We had our 12 days Kathmandu city cum Ghorepani trekking tour and travel well planned and organized by Aiming Adventure. It was a very sudden plan, but Mr Bikal was very much accommodating and advised us the best based on our needs and physical condition. We really enjoyed each and every moment of our stay in Nepal. Our trek guide Machiiri and potter Sujan are God sent! Without them, it was merely impossible to achieve what we planned, They are the best ever! They took care of us each and every minute...I never felt any safer. We miss them badly upon return and I wish to return back to Nepal for another adventure and without a single thought, I will engage them again! Highly recommended company which runs professional service at reasonable price ! I wish the team more success in upcoming future!

Gayathri P

Very well organized Trip from A to Z through my trekking to Annapurna Base Camp via Aiming adventure

-Perla S

Very professional team with excellent guides (ask for Manu). They took care of everything including porters, transportation and accommodation.
It is advisable to request a private car for transportation from Pokhara to Jhinu though, since the public bus is not comfortable at all especially on the mountainous roads.

-Helen M

We were a group of 12 people who enjoyed Aiming Adventure's professional and experienced team skills while making a very challenging 14 days journey to EBC and back to Kathmandu. Bikal Duwadi and his team made real this dream we had and converted it into an absolutely wonderful experience that will last in our minds forever. Thank you forever Bikal, thanks to our mountain guides Manu, Tilak and Macchiri and thanks to the sherpas that accompanied us during all this journey.

-Daniel S

Expectations were exceeded from the beginning with a team very attentive to the needs of the group, the guide Manu always providing information and details of each place and each mountain, the assistants Machhiri and Tilak and the porters with an unbeatable attitude, friendly, attentive in each moment, it is extraordinary that despite the hard work they must do they always welcome you with a smile that only inspires and motivates.
I hope to be able to return and without a doubt I would look for them again and I recommend them without hesitation.

-Enid M

Our trek to EVEREST BASE CAMP was in all ways an absolute amazing experience.
From our first contact with Bikal Duwadi, we were impressed with the manner he was assisting us and he was always prompt in replying to all our questions and requests.
We cannot thank him and his team enough for all the wonderful arrangements, help, guidance, care, patience and personal involvement to ensure everything went smooth all the way. We always felt safe and that they had our best interest at heart.
Our guide, Roman, is a very special person and we couldn't have been happier to had him as our guide. Nothing was ever too much trouble for him and he took such good care of us, with the greatest respect. He has a special ability to add that extra factor to make your trek experience even more memorable.
Our two porters, Sushil and Sagar, were also amazing. They are very hard working young men, with an attitude to always give their best and their support was incredible.
I can in all honesty say that our Aiming Adventure Team were the best, always willing to go the 2nd mile for us and together we had so much fun.
Our hearts are filled with plenty of special memories, that we will treasure always.
A huge THANK YOU, for contributing to make my 4th visit to Nepal so special!
I can definitely recommend Aiming Adventure and wish them all the very best for the future.

-Ronel D

Our group did EBC few days ago, it was a 15-day trip of physical and mental effort, which would not have been possible without the help and accompaniment of Mr Bikal, the porters, our main guide Mr Mani, and his assistants Tilak Karki and Machhiri Sherpa.

Their support was essential to keep focused a group of 12 Costa Ricans, who despite having good physical conditions and being used to do trekking, for many of us it was our first time to reach a peak higher than 5000mts. They took care of keeping us motivated, making us always feel at home and safe. In addition, when their knowledge of the risks was necessary, they knew how to handle the situation and collaborate with the people who required it in an ideal way.

I thank them for their good energy, good vibes and all the patience they always had for us, their work was really surprising, and I would gladly return and work with them again. The experience was amazing and I definitely recommend them without hesitation ????.

-Gabriela C

It was very exciting for me to do this trekking going to ABC because it's one of my bucket list, at first I was struggling I thought I'm not gonna make it but it happens that I have a strong Guide ( Roman ) he's a young and active body partner with strong porter (Suzanne ), I highly recommend this company AIMING ADVENTURE and also this 2 people who made my success to reach the ABC summit.

To those who like mountains long trekkings I recommend NEPAL it is a safe country with good local people excellent food and also GREAT CULTURE and Hospitality was great.

It was a great adventure looking forward to doing it again Mr. Bikal thank you for your Hospitality I can see that this is not like your just business, but you are making good relationships so that you can make good friends .

-Kusineronggala

We went to Annapurna base camp for 13 days. Trek was amazing. The porters were young and energetic and helped us while walking challenging terrains. Our guide, Mr.Mani, motivated and guided us well. We had a wonderful trip.

I would strongly recommend the Aiming Adventure Team to everyone to Experience the same. Congratulations to the whole the team who made our trip memorable.

They were very punctual, helpful, knowledgeable, informative —notable people with tremendous patience with our team.

-Preethi

We did trekking to Annapurna base Camp with Aiming Adventure. I would definitely recommend Aiming Adventure. The entire team was knowledgeable, respectful and punctual, they did not disappoint us at all.
They showed caring and the young porters made our experience memorable.
The porters helped us carry our luggage, motivated us and al entertained and bought smiles on our face. They are genuine and hardworking people.

Our guide Mr. Mani helped our team and guided us considering our strengths, emotions and capabilities.
I admire the patience he showed towards each of us and always had a smile on his face. He was able to share information as we trekked and looked into our needs, food, water and accommodation.
From the time we were picked up and till we were dropped there was no inconvenience at all.
I definitely would recommend this company.

-Smita M

Aiming adventure provided me with a wonderful experience while doing EBC trekking. Bikal and her team are always willing to answer any questions and offer a quality service. Thanks also to my guide Chiran and his brother, the porter, who were by my side during the journey.

-Cássio Gomes

I had the best experience in Nepal .The people how assisted me from Aiming adventure were the best .I cant ask for better people us they

-Liz Butler

We went to "Everest Base Camp via Gokyo Lake and Cho-La pass" in October 2021 and the Aiming Adventure service was excellent.

The guide who accompanied us (Roman) spared no efforts in making our hike a success.

I highly recommend their service.

Congratulations to Bikal and the Aiming Adventure team!

-Ivan C. Vicentin

This year my wife and I visited Mustang. We started from Pokhara, made a short trek via Tatopani and Ghorepani and then went by jeep to Muktinath and afterwards to Lo Manthang. It was fantastic experience. We've been to Nepal 3 times before and managed to see a lot in this magnificent country but Mustang was something very different and absolutely special for us. We enjoyed this trip. Come and visit Mustang. It could be your last chance to see it how it looks now. The good road is going to be constructed there soon, China is trying to get there too and very soon Mustang will change its charming appearance and specific atmosphere that still exists there today. Mustang as it looks now will disappear soon. Hurry up. Go there. Aiming Adventure made their fantastic job during this difficult COVID period. We had postponed our tour 2 times and they (Aiming Adventures) were patiently waiting for us to come and did perfect tour for us. Everything has been done in accordance with our detailed schedule. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Bikal Duwadi, the chief of Aiming Adventures and special thanks to our guide Sujan, who did fantastic work organizing our tour and fighting with circumstances on the way. His perfect English and deep knowledge made the days in Mustang unforgettable for us.

-Kirill A

I booked a trek to Annapura Base Camp with Aiming Adventure and couldn't have been happier with my choice! Bikal was quick to respond to any questions, and made every arrangement for the entire trip, including a last minute trip with a guide and driver to Chandragiri Hills, and arranged our return travel Covid Tests. Manu and Machhre were amazing guides, who attended to every detail which allowed us to focus on the stunning scenery! The entire team at Aiming Adventure was truly amazing, I can't wait to arrange my next trip to Nepal with them! Thank you Bikal, Manu, and Machhre!

-Chris D

Our experience with Aiming Adventures was amazing. When our trip got postponed twice due to the pandemic, Bikal was in touch with us throughout the process. He kept us up to date on what the situation was like in Nepal. I felt like we were close friends who had never met in person. When we landed in Kathmandu, I knew that we were in great hands. Our guide made sure that all of our needs were met and went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed. At the end of each day, our guide talked to us about our day, checked in with everyone to make sure everyone was doing well and discuss plans for the next day. Accommodations in Kathmandu, Pokhara, and the tea houses were well thought out and I felt very safe in each location. This was our first trek in Nepal and I have been home for less than a week and I am already ready to book our next trip.

The Annapurna Circuit Trek Tour is not to be missed by Aiming Adventure. Personally this will be a lifetime memorable experience. The 16 days on the trail was incredible and full of natural wonders thanks for the great confidence, experience and above all friendship of Manu and Roman. They were the backbone of this trip. Special thanks to Bikal who thought and arranged everything with a sense of attention to detail from visa organizing, airport pickup, accommodation, transportation, PCR tests till my last day.
I sincerely hope to see these guys again ????????????????????

The adventure of Everest base camp trekking and national lock down is a unique experience in my life. The staff of Aiming adventure was very kind, helpful and professional from the first day of my arriving. Even during the national lock down after the trekking, Bikal still did his best to make us feel comfortable in Kathmandu for two weeks.

During the trekking, Manu and Susan, our guide, were very nice guys willing to help, talk and share the experience with each other. I had a very nice experience not only on the trekking, but on making friends with them. They are also every professional and responsible. I got many useful tips from them to deal with my headache due to the high altitude. They also stopped my stupid ideas which may make my headache sever, such as taking a nap and hot show above 4000 m. I can say that without them I may not manage to get to my dream place, the Everest base camp. I also had a very nice time with the porters. I still cannot forget their smiles even they had 30 kg of bags on their shoulder.

I think I do not need to say any beautiful words on how fabulous the mountains are. But the staff of Aiming Adventure can makes see more on the beauty of Nepalese. I will definitely come back again for another trip and hope to have a trip together with them soon.

-Kaixuan Zhou

We 4 of us were newbie on trekking trip, worried almost everything but luckly we found Aimming Adventure. We had been adviced for every details on our trekking trip and so blessed to have Bikal joining us on this trip. We went there during spring time and the view were stunning. During our 3 days 2 night trekking we had everything well arranged and enjoyable trip. Bikal and his teams always make sure taking good care of us and be the first to come and help us on our needs.

On the second day of trekking we had a very challenged snow melting trek, thanks to Bikal and Roman (our trekking guide) help us overcome all the downhill slippery trek while we even had fun and the experience which we never had it before.

Its worth for all we paid and nothing to worry about it, just leave it to Bikal, he shall done all his part and make us feel very comfortable and relaxing trip in Nepal. We hope that we shall meet again Bikal and these will never been thought before we came to Nepal. Again, thank you Bikal !

You can plan your own trip or you can have Aiming Adventure to plan it out perfectly for you. Bikal who organized and planned out the trip for me was very detailed and responsive, he answered all my queries with patience and then he sent me the best guide, Manu. Without the support and patience from Manu, I probably couldn’t have finished the ABC trek without difficulty. He was very patience, encouraging and supportive throughout the trek, and made sure I was well taken care of, of all times! He gave me a lot of information about the areas and mountains and whenever I needed my own time and space to take in all the amazing sceneries he respected that. You can definitely do ABC yourself but with him as my guide, I felt like my trek was more meaningful with a friend and I felt that I only have to take the next step and he will take care of the rest!

Two thumbs up, highly recommended, and next time I’m back to another trek, definitely going with my old team! Thanks again guys for all the help organizing the trek! Namaste!

Bikal is such an excellent guide who came to our hotel to give us a comprehensive brief. We did a one-day helicopter tour, and he guided us perfectly like explaining the names of mountains and arranging things in a timely manner. Super recommended!!!

I did my trekking with Aimming Adventure, I was all by myself so I really wanted to do it with a reliable agency then I found them.

They help you with everything, all is include in the price you pay and they want you to be as confortable as you can. The guide knows all the circuit and can help you with all the information you need while you there.

I was really happy during and after the trekking , there are many agencies but this one is very affordable and reliable.

I specially recommend them, you will have a really good time.

Bikal responded to my inquiries very patiently and thoroughly before booking. Then organized the tour well, so everything went according to the plan, including flights, guide, porters, accommodation. Had a FREE helicopter ride & that was amazing!. (thanks to Bikal again) :) Chiran, our guide was excellent in paying attention to every detail, and led the tour with great knowledge and professional support! “Thank you Bikal for making our trek the best, we will miss you and Nepal.” Cheers!

I went everest base camp 15days trek last month with aiming adventure. Im really happy with their service. Their cost also reasonable. They provided a helicopter ride from kathmandu to lukla, instead of plane ride to the same cost. That upgraded heli ride was amazing and really a surprice for us. The guide was also good and he took care of us during our whole trek. Im recommend their service for everybody and hope their business grow up each and everyday

We have done our first ever trekking trip in Nepal with Aiming Adventure. Especially Bikal, he was so responsive, quick respond via email or WhatsApp.

It was such a great trekking journey! Our guide Shvaand porter Ram are very responsible and nice through out the whole trip. We really enjoyed the trip and definitely would recommend Aiming Adventure for your trekking trip.

-Kar Yen T

We booked Aiming Adventure from January 2019 for one trip at November 2019 , all questions for our trip were answered by mr. Bikal clearly from arrived to completed the trip our guide Dinesh has provide decent and sufficient needs for us, from foods to lodges were good.
I would like to recommend to my friends

-andysD5675FC

We hired Aiming Adventure and Bikal for our stay in Kathmandu and the EBC Trek, It was a great experience, Everything from pick up at KTM airport to drop off was seamless. Our guide Manu was excellent we had a great time with him and our porter from the Sherpa tribe Machiry was also great. During our stay in the mountain both Manu and Machiry made sure we had everything we needed. The tea house were clean, confortable and as warm as possible, some had in room bath room, some had hot water which is difficult the higher you go. Food was plenty and well cooked, we had fresh fruit every night.

Aiming Adventure is without a doubt your best choise if you are thingking to do the EBC trek. There is only one thing I did not like and there was never an explanation to this, we booked at least 8 months in advance we hired flights from KTM Lukla and back, but we were flown to Rameshap on the way back, we had to take a 4:30hours bus to KTM. Just make 100% you are flown back to KTM, it is not a pleasent ride from Rameshap to KTM specially if you are tired from 12 days in the mountain.

-carlbbdelac

From arriving at the airport, to completing the trek, and returning to the airport, I have to give massive credit to both Aiming adventure, Bikal and our guide Rai for making it the trip it was. I joined the party a little later than the others who has booked, however adding onto the journey wasn't an issue. The entire team were accommodating in ever way possible. They took great care of us, helping us with what equipment to bring, clothes to wear, places to buy necessary items, food to avoid, places to eat, bars to relax in, massage therapy, hairdressers to use etc etc etc. If we had a question they had the answer.

At no point did it feel like we were asking to much or being a burden to the team. Rai (our guide) was always the first during the journey from Kathmandu, lukla - bases camp and back. He always gave us an excellent run down of the day to day plans. Was extremely careful at ensuring we were well hydrated, rested and above all, enjoying our time in the mountains. We encountered difficulties with traveling due to circumstances outwith Aiming Adventures control. Flights canceled, rooms over booked ect. In each instance the matter was dealt with extremely quickly and our assurances that we had nothing to be concerned about were justified.

This was my first experience on a trip like this and I can honestly say without the support and guidance provided by Rai and Bikal I would be less than likely to return. Nepal is a beautiful place, the mountains are a sight to behold and the people of the country could not be any nicer, more welcoming and warm towards us.

For anyone looking to do any kind of excursion I would 1000000% recommend travelling with Aiming adventure.

From myself and everyone else whom I traveled with I would once again like to thank Bikal, Rai and all of the staff we encountered on our travels. Peace and love ✌️❤️

A life changing journey so much respect to give to the people & the nature thanks to AIMING ADVENTURE

-Raph M F

Aiming Adventure exceeded our expectations. Bikal was looking after every single detail to make our visit a unique experience. These included information and open communication before our trip, friendly reception and authentic concern about our comfort in Kathmandu, and of course; he monitored our journey during our hike to EBC. We were also so lucky to have Manu as our guide. He is really empathetic, he dominates everything around the Khumbu region, and he always has a contagious smile. Our porter Macheri was also a great asset. He was energetic, always happy, and good Nepali singer. Thank you for the exceptional experience!!

-Connector156476

Aiming Adventure was excellent! The Managing Director Bikal was very professional, extremely knowledgeable and helpful, and great to work with, making sure to explain everything carefully and promptly, and kept me updated of any changes. I was 100% sure that my group was in the best hands before leaving the US for our trek to EBC, Kala Patthar and our climb of Imja Tse (Island Peak). From our arrival to Kathmandu to our airport departure, everything was excellent. Firstly, our head guide Manu welcomed us at the airport (after a long delay). He went above and beyond to ensure that everything was perfect and all the details were taken care of. He was very knowledgeable about everything we saw and when there were necessary changes to our itinerary, he made sure everything was taken care of. Our assistant guides Janak & Machhiri were also friendly and awesome, as well as our porters - the service was simply fantastic! The guides and assistant guides for our Imja Tse climb were also excellent, very professional and safe, checking our well-being and safety at all times. With Aiming Adventure, this was a trip of a lifetime with so many wonderful memories and they are simply the BEST!

-ylingli

Aiming Adventure was amazing. From their very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable Managing Director, Bikal, to their dedicated, friendly, fun and awesome trekking guide, assistant trekking guides, and porters. From the moment we put a group together and contacted Bikal, he was always extremely helpful, very prompt with his responses to all the questions we had, and really gave 100% to ensure our success which included not only a trek to Everest base camp and a trek to Kala Patthar, but a truly amazing climb of Imja Tse (Island Peak) as well! It was truly a pleasure to deal with him. Our head guide was Manu, and he was fantastic. This man would go above and beyond, to make sure everything was perfect for us, all the time. Our assistant guides were Machhiri & Janak and they were equally as awesome. These folks not only treated us like royalty in our day-to-day trekking endeavors, but were quick to answer the questions about the things we were seeing along the way (including all the names of the mountains we asked about), and the history of their beautiful country, Nepal. Our porters were really wonderful! Always smiling and eager to please. They always had our duffels waiting for us at our destination and were really just fun and friendly guys! This was a team that was provided to us by Bikal and Aiming Adventure, that would literally bend over backwards for us to ensure we were happy and taken care of in every aspect of our trek, and they were the best. I should also mention that Bikal and Aiming Adventure provided top-notch Sherpas for our climb of Island Peak. Our Sherpas set up a rope course at the Island Peak base camp, where we were able to review and practice our rappelling and use of a mechanical ascender prior to climbing the mountain. Those in our climbing group had used this equipment before, but it was really nice to have this refresher course. The Sherpas were very professional and kept a close watch on us and made sure everything was perfect, which gave me additional confidence as this was a little bit of a tougher mountain than I expected! I felt very fortunate to have Aiming Adventure as the Company that took care of our trekking and climbing needs. As other reviewers have said, if you want a dedicated, well organized and professional company with top-notch people, that delivers on everything promised to you and will go out of their way to ensure you have the Nepal experience of a lifetime, then choose Aiming Adventure. You will be very happy!

-infinitedirection

I found aiming adventure online amongst many other companies but what really made me choose this one is that Bikal (company manager) contacted me via whatsapp right away. I believe for him was around 5 am as we live in oposite side of the world yet still he contacted me. He called me to introduced himself, so that i think was a very nice touch. Other companies answer me but like 2 o 3
Days later but Bikal had already won the race.
He was super patient with me as i am a bit piky and as many many questions but he always answered my emails with great detail. He send me information and everything was very well explained.

After arraigning my trek i wanted to visit more places that included a few days specific treks and visiting some places that needed airplane tickets inside nepal, he arranged me a whole schedule for this without charging me.. he would only charge if i accepted the offer and well of course i did.

Everything from my arrival day until today (i have been one month and nepal and still have one more left) Bikal has been great, texting me to see how im doing. I really appreciate that.

Now for my trek. Chiran was my guide and Sobit my porter. Both of them were AMAZING. Super friendly, super helpfull.
Chiran really knows his stuff, he is great at leading and at keeping your spirit high when the mountain becomes hard and cold. He was always making sure i eat and drank enough water. Always getting me the best rooms with private toilet (if available) making sure there was light in my room, having enough blankets and oh.... he sings (and sometimes dances) during the walks so for sure he will make your trek entertaining. And above all i gained a really good friend!

So to finish up i REALLY recommend this company, they are all local which i think is also great.

After EBC i think ill come back and do annapurna in a couple of years and for sure i will ask them to arrange my trip again!

Love

The entire experience was positive and exciting. Our guide was meticulous and helpful time after time. Our porters were diligent and friendly. The tea houses selected for us were more than adequate. It was a complete and satisfying experience from start to finish.

-_michaelthannan

I started planning my trekking by inquiring online and Bikal from aiming adventure responded to me much quicker than any other agency. He tailor made my itinerary in 10 mins that perfectly suits my needs which demonstrated his professionalism and made me decide to join the trekking. My solo trekking was accompanied by the guide Roman and porter Dili who even carried a box of apples all the way and made high altitude desserts for me every night. Roman is so familiar with the trekking route and always gave me good suggestions to capture the best view on the route. Under Roman’s guide I successfully conquered the three high passes and taken valuable photos of the stunning sunset of Mount Everest. Roman is also a superb photographer who has taken millions of photos for me and the snow mountains which are invaluable memories for my life. All in all, my solo three passes trekking is unforgettable and rewarding and I cannot accomplish that without aiming adventure, the best tour agency in Nepal.

-malaxiangguomala

I loved the adventure. The guide, assistant guides, and the porters were extremely personable and eager to please. Whenever there was a need they quickly recognized and met that need with smiles.

-Lana C

I was looking for EBC trek for me and my wife having already air tickets with fixed dates. Bikal's prompt reply to my request convinced me to choose Aiming Adventures and it was the right decision. I was very impressed by Bikal's very fast and detailed answers to all my questions that appeared before the tour. I've got all the information to be well prepared beforehand and it helped a lot. The tour itself was perfect. The guide Chiran was nice, the porter Sobit was strong.)) Everything was well organized and prepared. The food was very good. The lodges on the way are not 5-star hotels but you have to realize where you are and accept it. Wherever hot water, shower and private bathroom was promised to us it was provided. I look forward to make another trek with Aiming Adventures in the nearest future. It could highly likely be trek to Mustang. I do and will recommend Aiming Adventures to all without any hesitating.

-Kirill A

My two friend's and I had an excellent time trekking to EBC. Bikal, Manu our guide, and our porters all delivered excellent service with compassion and professionalism. Manu and the porters were all very experienced and guided us without any difficulty, they were all also very knowledgeable about the local towns/food/animals/etc. and always welcomed questions so that we could learn more about the rich Himalayan culture while on the trek. Overall the entire experience was very comprehensive and Bikal and the rest of the team were also very flexible and accommodating (e.g. Bikal went above and beyond to arrange 3 different driver arrangements as all 3 of us had different next destinations after the trek). Well worth every dollar, thank you to the entire Aiming Adventure team.

-Wasif B

The team were amazing in helping coordinating and organising the trip for me. Bikul was very helpful and patient in helping me to choose and book the trip. Mannu, our guide, was very friendly,approachable and knowledgeable about not just the terrain but also in helping boost our morale on the hike when the going got tough. Furthermore, the porters were really friendly and we could not have gotten to Everest base camp and back without their help. I went with 3 friends and I would totally book with them the next opportunity I get to hike in Nepal because it was such an enjoyable experience and even as students, the price was very fair and still affordable for us.

-Ki3M0

Bikal has a wonderful team and is a very Knowledgeable Organizer. I was provided all the information i needed for the Trek the day i arrived in Kathmandu. There were 2 guides assigned to our group, Binod and Roman. Both these guides were quite experienced and had a lot of information to share with us during the trek. They had organised accommodation, food arrangements and every other requirement in a very efficient manner. The guides made our experience of the whole trip wonderful. Excellent guys!!! keep it up.

From start to finish we were looked after by Aiming Adventures. When I landed in Nepal I was greeted at the airport and brought to my hotel in Kathmandu by my guide Manu. This was included in our trip and it’s such a great service and feeling to know when you collect your bag and walk out of the airport that somebody is there to pick you up. Ive always hated that feeling of groups of taxi men shouting for your service. They also drop you back at the airport. 

What I loved about Aiming Adventures was that they were always contactable when ever I needed information. Even with the time difference there was always someone to answer a query. 

Manu and his team gave us the best experience I could have hoped for. They had fantastic English and were very helpful in answering all our questions. We are going back next year to do a different trek and will be booking with Aiming Adventures again. Fact.

-SavvyTravler2479

I cant recommend Bikal and his team at Aiming Adventure highly enough. We had an amazing time trekking to Everest base camp. An adventure that I will treasure forever. Thank you Aiming Adventure.

-Christosalbuquerque

We were a group of 3 person and did the Goyko-Lake trip via EBC. The tour was really good organized and the tour manager Bikal responded very quickly. The arrival and the hotel in Kathmandu were nice and with high tourist-standards. The trek was amazing and the duration of each day totally fine. The guide Roman and the two porters were courteous and tried the best to make this trek a wonderful vacation. Their english was sometimes a little bit hard to understand, but overall totally ok. Unfortunately one of our team members twisted the ankle on the 5 day of the trek and had to go back via helicopter. The organization of the helicopter and insurance via Bikal was super helpful and we were happy to have the support. Just two days later the second team member had to go back via helicopter too due to mountain sickness. And jet again, the support of Amining Adventure was great! The last person of the group continued the trek, but with changes in the trekking route. Due to this changes he wasn`t able to get a teahouse in Gorak Shep, which was a pity and resulted in a really long trekking day. 
The only negative aspect of the trek were the teahouses. They were mainly ok, but you could recognize that the chosen teahouses weren't the best. We guess, that the guides chose these teahouses because of the other guides (to stay together).

Overall, I just can recommend Aiming Adventure - they are super helpful with every problem you may got and really try to make you feel comfortable!

-Svenja_Marcel

The trip kept delivering from the first time we contacted Bikal. Both of us contacted him multiple times and always a quick and thorough response. We were collected at the airport which trust me is a huge luxury you don’t want to overlook(we also were dropped back to airport) we were welcomed into our hotel with a small bite to eat and a couple of beers. This welcome gave us a brief synopsis of our trip which started with a great day trip around Kathmandu’s tourist spots. The trek was absolutely brilliantly organized which even dealt with the airport being shut with ease. We always had our guide Manu helping us along and being well organized which made our trip enjoyable. The food was always good and ready quick. The facilities were better than expected for a trek. I will definitely be using aiming adventure again as I will probably going back to Everest next. If you are unsure of who to book then trust me Aiming adventure is the way to go and we have heard this from other groups we were traveling with.

Trekking EBC for my wife's 40th birthday was one of the most challenging adventures we have done since Kilimanjaro in 2009 for her 30th birthday.

It all started with the arrangements via Aiming Adventures (Bikal Duwaldi). Bikal and his team, Chirangibi Karki (Guide), Ambir (Porter) , Shobit (Porter) are the best ever. I will recommend Aiming Adventure to any person or group who plans an adventure in Nepal. Bikal, Pauli and I would like to thank you for the unforgettable experience with both of us celebrating our birthdays on trek and at EBC.

Planning to have birthday cakes on both occasions is something we will treasure for ever, not only are you and your team professionals but you guys made us feel at home, WELL DONE!!!!!

It was a life time trip which was made possible by Aiming Adventures. Bikal who is the business owner was involved from day one until final day, he is a professional who you can real count on for your EBC planing coz no matter what happens he can find a solution and make your trip very successful which what you need for this kind of a lifetime trip. However, it doesn’t stop here, Bikal managed to have a very friendly and knowledgeable guide who I recommend for your next trip, his name is Manu who is a guide you can count on especially when you are at high altitude where every advice counts toward the success of the trip, Manu will be your guide, your life saver and your buddy and friend, he is someone that you will never forget because he made your trip a successful adventure, count on Manu. And finally, I can’t gorget our Sherpa Machhiri who is a friendly person who you can invite to play cards with at night , he is also a mean machine coz he is very strong and very fast, so catch him if you can . Well you never will
All in all, you will never ever regret choosing Aiming Adventure for your next EBC trip, a trustworthy company with a very competitive cost per trip compared to other exaggerated prices and for sure they are very friendly people that you will never forget. 

Well done Aiming Adveture

-ZaksterTreker

Here’s my review about my trip (Everest Base Camp via Gokyo Lakes) together with Aiming Adventure.
Quick info about me: I am 41 years old from Germany and travelled with Aiming Adventure from April 1st - 18th 2019. I am a neutral customer sharing his experience.

As My review will be very detailed (and not everyone is willing to read that much), here’s my short summary first:
Based on my personal experience, Aiming Adventure is the best provider of trekking- / hiking tours in the Himalayas. All the factors that are important for a trekking trip are met and / or exceeded by Aiming Adventure. There is nothing bad / negative I can say about Aiming Adventure.

And now - here’s my more detailed review (if you have any questions - or want more details - please let me know in the comments-section - I’m happy to help):
As this trip was my bucket list dream for more than 10 years, I did loads of research on travel agencies and providers, ending up chosing Aiming adventure. This was the best decision I could have ever made. Bikal and his team (our guide Manu and our porter Machhiri) fulfilled all of their promises and even exceeded my expectations. The entire trip felt like I was guided by world class professionals and - at the same time - it felt like being in the mountains with extremely caring family and friends. 
Compared to other groups (clients and guides from other companies) I saw during the trip, my group from Aiming Adventure seemed like a family: Aiming Adventure is NEVER rushing their clients up the mountain (trust me, I saw and heard scary things from other companie’s guides). Instead, Aiming Adventure takes the acclimatization to high altitude extremely serious. This is cruicial for the safety and the success of untrained clients (like me). We saw many clients with alarming signs of high altitude sickness as they were „rushed up the mountain“ by their guides. This is extremely scary and almost criminal. We wittnessed „last-minute - evacuations“ of clients from other providers via horse and helicopter.
If you are reading this as you are still searching for the right provider for your trip: Yes, we check and calculate ahead „what is included“ in the packages of different providers (water, food, accomodation etc.) - but the most essential thing to be checked is the acclimatization to high altitude. If that is not provided, you are in an essential danger up there and you will most likely not be able to reach your goal. 
I heard clients and guides from other companies fighting as the clients wanted their money back. They were frustrated as per their itinerary, it was purely impossible to make it up there safely in such a small amount of time. Trust me - being in our cozy homes, watching youtube videos and reading blogs about hiking in the Himalayas is one thing…experiencing the effect of thin air and the exhaustion just after making 2 or 3 steps is a completely different story. Do yourself a favor and pick a provider who calculates 2-3 extra days rather than a provider who rushes you up and down in a short period of time.
On a daily basis, our guide Manu gave us a detailed briefing about the next day, providing ALL the details about the hike, the altitude, the things we will see etc. Besides that he interviewed us every day about our physical and mental conditions in order to make sure that we will all reach our goal without any risks. He even made mandatory „water breaks“ reminding us to drink enough water (which is essential to minimize the risk of high altitude sickness).
Besides that - booking a trip with Aiming Adventure means that there are NO hidden costs (EVERYTHING was included in their price: water, food, accomodation, sleeping bags etc.) - on top of that, their trips are planned so that clients can adapt to the high altitude accordingly. 

Throughout the daily hikes, our guide Manu and our porter Machhiri were extremely happy to chat with us and to answer all sorts of questions we had. Through that, we were able to learn a lot about the culture of Nepal and of course about the countless details about the Himalayas. This was - at least to me - priceless and unforgettable.
What the other group menbers and I felt all the time: The kindness from Aiming Adventure is coming from the heart and NOT from a business-driven eye on their bank account. Within our group, all clients agreed that booking our trip with Aiming Adventure was the best decision we could have ever taken.
What was important to me as well was the fact that the guide and the porter from Aiming Adventure are insured through the company (which is not common among providers). Remember: Your guide is your „life insurance“ up there and your porter is a „true miracle“ as he is carrying your entire luggage from tea house to tea house. On top of that (and that is just one of many „specials“ that are included in Aiming Adventure’s service), the porter prepares and serves a selection of fruits as a desert every day to strengthen their clients’ immune system.

Some other extremely impressive things from my own experience:
- The second I booked this trip, I received Bikal’s phone number and we were in contact via whatsapp all the time. One phone call to get to know each other ahead of time was made as well. It felt to me like „welcome to the family“

- From the moment I stepped out of the airport in Kathmandu to the moment when I flew back to Germany, I was guided by someone from Aiming Adventure. I NEVER EVER felt „lost“ or insecure.

- When we reached Namche Bazar, I got sick (must have eaten something bad…)
Immediately, Aiming Adventure made a fall-back plan for me to have an additional rest day at Namche Bazar to recover and to then follow with a separate guide at a later point of time. Our guide Manu and Aiming Adventure’s CEO Bikal were in contact multiple times a day so that they were able to remotely manage and organize things and „make the impossible possible“.

- Imagine - I was sick, laying in bed, woke up and had my guide sitting next to my bed with a bowl of rice and a cup of tea - caring for me in a way that my mother used to do it when I was little. This was really heart-warming and shows that for Aiming Adventure, it is the customer who counts. Thanks to the care and help, I was able to recover quick to join my group without any delay.

- We actually planned to cross Chola Pass from Gokyo to Everest Base Camp. Due to the weather, we were unable to cross Chola Pass so (everyone who is familiar with the map of the Himalayas knows) reaching Everest Base Camp is almost impossible within our travel dates. But then - within a couple of hours, Manu and Bikal arranged a new proposal and plan for us to still make it to Everest Base Camp. They re-booked our flights from Lukla (one day later), switched our bookings at tea houses, switched our Kathmandu City tour etc. So - at the end of the day, we still reached our goal thanks to Aiming Adventure.

All I can say is „thank you Aiming Adventure“ (Bikal, Manu and Machhiri)! You made me reach my goal and to fulfill my dream. On top of that, it was a true pleasure to meet you and to spend time with you,

All the best,
Tobi

We have booked the Gokyo Lakes Trek with Aiming adventures. 
This tour is simply amazing.

We have chosen Aiming Adventures (among many other agencies) because Bikal, the manager, was very open from the beginning. Instead of answering with standard emails, the answers to may mails have always been personal and addressing my specific questions. He was always available for questions via phone, whatsapp and email.

Bikal managed our Adventure perfectly.When the Kathamndu Airport closed down for domestic flights he was instantly able to organize a helicopter to fly to Lukla instead. This safed us a lot of time and probably frustration even before our trip.
When we came back to Kathmandu from our Trekking tour, even by the time the booked trip was over, he helped us in organizing hotel rooms, making our stay in Kathmandu as easy and comfortable as possible.

On the Trekking tour Roman was an amazing guide.
He was super friendly, knowledgable and always extreemely positive. 
We are experienced Trekkers in the European Alps, but we were lacking the experience with the high altitude of the himalayas. Roman was filling exactly this gap and gave firm and precise recommendations, hints, suggestions and instructions on how to surwive up there. Even in critical situations he always knew what to do (and also what not to do).

He always immediately figured when one of us was not doing so well in a certain moment or day. Then he used his positive nature and his motivation skills.
This is quite helpful if you suddenly think that you can't go any further, just 100m below the peak of Gokyo Ri.

Roman seems to know almost everyone up there in the mountains and his huge network, built up over years was our advantage in many cases. This means we sometimes got a room closer to the toilets and myabe sometimes a cup of warm Tee extra.

We always felt super safe, very well taken care of and very happy dispite all physical strain.

I made the Annapurna Circuit Trek and Everest Base Camp with Aiming Adventures and it was fabulous, was fascinated by the attention of the people and of course the beautiful landscapes. It's not just a trek, I think it's a lifetime gift that I'll always remember. Who reads this, I really think you deserve to see these landscapes, the beauty of the world, of mountains and of course with the help of Aiming Adventures. Good luck my friend.

-Diego P

Highly recommended.

I had a great time during my recent visit to Nepal, it was made possible by these awesome group of people in Aiming Adventure.

My first trekking experience was Lantang trek in 2014 and the second was Everest Base Camp trek in 2016. Every time when I went into Mountain, I said to myself this will be my last visit, but however, here I come again for Annapurna trek, my third visit to Nepal. I love Nepal, the people and scenery are amazing, I miss every moment when I was here.

Nepal is known for its many beautiful trekking trails. It is one of the ultimate adventure trekking destinations in the world. Many people travel here to challenge and conquer the mountains, but to the local, this is what they rely on for living. In every trekking activities, each porter carried an average head-supported loads of 30kg and yet they still be able to walk before us. This is their life.

When hiking, we need to make sure we are choosing things efficiently, pack light and bring only necessity items but not all items. In fact, life is simple, but many of us were spending and wasting too much money on stuff we didn't need. 

We are really thankful to have good porters and mountain guides. They pay attention to us at all times. With the professional scale and experience, they always there to give us a hand and in time to catch us before we fall, even in bad situation. We are in their good hand especially when there were an unexpected snow storm a day before we reach to Annapurna summit. Without them, there is no way we can complete our trek safely to the summit and accomplish our mission. 

Biki, I engaged his service in 2016 during my EBC trek. He is kind, patient, experience and friendly. That was a wonderful experience and hence I engaged his service again for my Annapurna trek this year. I like his team too, porters and mountain guides, they are well trained and experience.

Once again, I would like to express my special thanks of gratitude to Biki, assistance guide Kalu & Naba, porters Ram, Yam, Romeo,Indra, Khrisna, Sage. I love every one of you ❤

Thanks to Aiming Adventure. Highly recommended their service!

We are group of 9 pax visit ABC in November, our group representative strongly recommended to contact Aiming adventure for the tour package!
I m glad and very happy that we make the correct decision, along the trekking journey, we all are well take care by Mr Duwali Bikel, even though we are having different pace and speed, lunch and dinner are serving on time and variety of choices, I had suggested this organization to my friends for those are interested to go there soon.

-Chai Seng O

By gollly, what a trip! When another company stopped communicating part way through (and about 3 weeks before we wanted to start the trek) I panicked and Aiming Adventures came to our rescue. 

When I emailed Aiming Adventures Bikal replied with 5 mins and from there constant communication around the trip, dates, and so on. Super flexible and easy to deal with. 

Our guide was Chiran. Great guy, super helpful, and great walking buddy. Thumbs up too you boss. 

All up if you want an amazing, hassle free, and just top notch experience this is the group you need in your life/Nepalese trekking experience. Noice!

My friend and I did a 12 day trek to everest base camp through aiming adventures. The company was very easy to communicate with and quick to respond, they were also flexible with the itineraries and complied with all of our requests. Our guide was Chiron who was quiet but very sweet and friendly, and quite the jokester! We really enjoyed spending 12 days with him and having him as our guide. When I felt sick and tired from the altitude he constantly reminded me to drink water and always offered to carry my day pack, which was really appreciated. He took good care of us and was very fun and great company. If Chiron is your guide you will definitely laugh and enjoy your trip!

-NomadicJ9

This was the shortest and sweetest of all treks I have done till date. The view from day one was spectacular. The walk through the dense forest was meditative and profound, - Annapurna South and The Fishtail were in full view and the whole experience was in short - DIVINE. 
Bikal of Aiming Adventure had arranged everything well and our guide Mahendra Acharya was our support system all through out. Without him things would have not been the same..thank you Mahendra for looking after us so well.

Hi everyone,

To make it short: BEST adventure of my life! 
Why? - If you looking for genuine and honest people, this company is the perfect choice for your needs. 
I've been in Nepal multiple times & so far they always helped me reach every challenge & goal, not only in terms of pure adventure but also a close up to what is the great culture and traditions of Nepal. 
Here you'll find some of the photos I took during my time in this beautiful and rich country. & as we say: a picture is worth a thousand words.

Bikal was our guide for the trek. The were six of us in our party - from 25 to a girl who had her 63 birthday at Chola Pass. Fantastic trip. I have recommend it to friends and family. My two boys are currently mid EBC trek with Bikal's team. A great company. Hike with confidence with Bicki.

When my friend and I visited Nepal for the first time in 2015 to do Poonhill, we met Bikki (Bikal) our amazing Nepali guide. We were so impressed with his professionalism, knowledge and love for his country and culture, his care of us (two young women) that when I planned to return with a larger group to do EBC I would not have chosen anyone else.

We returned as a group of 11 to do EBC for my 30th birthday and Bikki and his team of Sherpas made this one of the most magical experiences and a trip of a lifetime. Again I could trust that everything was well organised from return flights to/from Lukla, accommodation, food, clean water and emergency medical supplies were all taken care of. Unfortunately, I became sick as we left Kathmandu (my own fault for drinking an unseated bottle of water) and was sick for a few days but Bikki was there with me every step of the way, no matter how slow I was going. He took such great care of me that I wouldn't have finished to see the incredible mountains or experience the amazing mountain culture without him.

After EBC my family/friends and I had also arranged to be part of a rebuild project which we arranged through a partner organisation in the region Bikki came from which was severely damaged by the 2014 earthquake. We spent 4 days working with the local school, families and builders to remove and prepare for a safe new school for the children to learn in. Bikki again was there every step of the way, meeting us and travelling to the remote village by public transfer, introducing us to the village people, arranging a wonderful place to stay and helping with every little detail to ensure it was a successful and amazing trip. Bikki has become a wonderful friend and I am already thinking of and planning my 3rd trip to Nepa. I wouldn't trek Nepal with anyone other than him, he's my go to man!

Went for EBC trek. Guide was Bikal aka Biki. I can say that this was a different trek experience than the previous one (Langtang trek) with someone else and some other trekking service. The trek with Biki was very personal and tailored to our needs. I was very pleased and enjoyed the whole trek without any mishaps (believe me, a lot of mishaps can happen )
Will be back in october this year for Annapurna trek. Biki, are you ready for us?

Bikal is a truly amazing guide and his knowledge of the area is second to none! His english is perfect and throughout all my travels it is hard to think of a more rewarding experience than watching the sun rise from behind Mt Everest! Spending 10 days with friends and having him guide us through the Himalayas was an amazing experience and highly recommended!

Would definitely recommend! Our guide Bikki made our trip so enjoyable. Very caring and knowledgeable about the land. Will stay in touch and come back as soon as I can!!!!

I arrived in Katmandu with a bit of I-really-don't-know-what-to-do-yet kind of thing.. I really have a little in mind, then I started google-ing some ideas and this "Aiming Adventure" page came up and I have read the reviews and though they might help. Then everything happened fast! I HAD THE BEST ADVENTURE, EVER! With just a blink of an eye, they accommodated me like I was really prepared for my trek (Though I have a lot of trekking before doing this ONE OF A TREK) It was a tough one.. The views were amazing. Everything around me was amazing. But despite the days and the struggles I made it because for real, I had great company. Thank you, Aiming Adventure.. you made my trip a one to remember.. Kudos!

I am not the type of person who write reviews, but my experience with Aiming Adventure was so good that I feel that you should experience it too! Bikal was the man! He truly cared about us having a great experience. I chose Mardi Himal trek route because it was truly recommended for a newbie like me. I admit it was not an easy hike, but our guide made it easy for me so that I’ll able to enjoy our journey and appreciate the beauty of the Himalayan mountains.
He was completely honest with us and treated us as friends.
He was a great guide! He showed the same commitment to making our trip as good as it could be. And I'm sure the rest of the employees of Aiming Adventure will show you the same treatment. When I return to nepal I will surely go with Aiming Adventure again. It’s truly worth the shot.

As a solo traveller i decided to get an advice from trek and tour company, luckily i met Bikal from Aiming Adventure. I told him what i want to do and see ( a sunrise in the mountains and sea of clouds). But I am not a seasoned hiker, so he adviced me an easy route and he chose Poonhill. The guide made the route seemed more easy because he does the daily hike a fun time! So happy with the team and highly recommended!

Amazing trip! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Great company to go with, extremely knowledgeable guides and amazing sites! Biki made sure everything went off without a hitch and Suzan was a great guide who made the hike itself so enjoyable even on the tough walks! Wouldn’t recommend anyone else!!

I can not speak highly enough of Bikal and his services during our time in Nepal. An unforgettable experience made possible with Bikals expertise and guidance. There is no better way to explore and engage with all the beauty Nepal has to offer. I look forward to seeking his services in the future and highly recommend others do the same.

Great at team! Very approachable and informative on any questions through the whole trip, all the way from before arriving in Kathmandu, up to base camp and back. Would highly recommend. They made every part of our trip hassle free even when we wanted to alter plans.
Made the experience that much more enjoyable. Thanks heaps to the whole team

Bikal is a fantastic guide, and is now a lifelong friend. His dedication to making sure everybody had a safe and enjoyable time trekking is amazing, and his sense of humour is wickedly fun. His professional approach and knowledge about the routes are second to none, and I would not hesitate to book another trek with him.

Our trek to the Langtang region of Nepal was an amazing experience. From the moment we met Bikal in Kathmandu, we knew we were in safe hands. He was incredibly sensitive to the needs of our small group, recognising when individuals needed to rest or eat, and always encouraging us with his gentle humour when spirits were flagging. The trek included gorgeous scenery and the opportunity to meet local people. I am looking forward to returning to Nepal to do a different trek with Bikal, and recommend him to anyone seeking a well-organised, warm and friendly guide to 
journey through a wonderful part of the world.

Cannot say enough for how good this company his. Have previously been on a trek with Bikal as guide and his knowledge and experience are the best. This time as soon as we found out he had his own company we had no hesitation going to him. He accommodated everything we wanted for the trek and his communication from booking enquiry to arrival kept us fully informed. Our guide Suzan was fantastic. Knows track, route, accomodation places and the people so well that the whole track went off without a hitch.
Overall I would thoroughly recommend Bikal and his company for trekking in Nepal.
The best!

Nepal is one of the world's great adventure travel destinations. With such a wonderful depth and range of culture, history and geography, it is a place that someone with an open heart and mind cannot help but fall in love with.

My 15 year old son and I joined a small group trek lead by Mr Bikal (Biki) Dumadi of Aiming Adventure. We wanted to use a local company rather than an international one, partly to ensure the funds stayed in Nepal which is still recovering from the 2015 earthquake, and partly because local experience should be the best. Our leap of faith in using Biki's company was returned many fold. It was quite simply one of the best travel experiences of my life.

Our trek started on the very edge of Kathmandu, through the Shivapuri Nagarjun National Park, north through Helambu, across the south of the Langtang National Park and return via the river valley. While rated as a easy/moderate trek climbing to 3900m, it was a satisfying physical challenge. The high mountain views were spectacular. Morning and evening summit walks to witness sunrises and sunsets were absolute highlights.

Biki chose the route and the teahouses where we ate and stayed with care. We witnessed people living and working in those mountains and were treated with such friendliness and hospitality. 

There is no doubt that before too long I will return to Nepal to trek again. And I will definitely be using Aiming Adventure.
