      we like travelling in Nepal very much

      Dear Welcome Nepal,
      We was very happy about the whole trip. Only comment is that the Trek ,food on board of the cruise ship was not the best. We was happy rooms at the boat and the service attitude.All your guides gave us a very good adventure and cars was fine and clean, and drivers very helpful.If I should pull out one guide, then Arjun Sigdel is very good and can make everyone happy.We will for sure use you Trekking and travel agency next year where we'll also take vacation in Nepal . So we hope that you can come up with some good suggestion for 2 weeks vacation in Nepal in June next year (Or maybe this year also) we like travelling in Nepal very much.

      Kindly Regards
