The Par Excelent Services – Best of the Best People
At the time when we wanted to visit Nepal, we were looking for a tour guide in Nepal. we came across Leaf Holidays and were a bit skeptical about it. We landed in Kathmandu on the 29th of April afternoon, to our surprise, the team of Mr. Gopal Thapa and Tek Prasad were waiting for us at the airport with garlands and a big Van and smiling faces. Now we were sure to have the best time with this team.
They had arranged our stay in the best hotels with superfood. During the entire trip of 10 days, they give us the best services. Due to air pollution, our flights were canceled for Pokhran, and without a second thought, they decided to drive us for about 8 hours to Pokhara in the Van. The roads were terrible, but we enjoyed the bumpy ride with good food on the way. The same cancelation happened on our return and they joyfully road-ridden with the team for about 12 hours to Nagarkot from Pokhran.
They showed us the most beautiful places and temples to worship. This trip became our Pilgrim trip. Gopalji and Prasadji took us to the best places for shopping and managed to get us real bargains. They ensured we do not spend more than what is worth paying for.
At the end of our trip, they dropped us at the airport and it was difficult to say Good Buy, but we said: “will come again”.
I want to say here, that if anyone is looking to visit Nepal, and wants to enjoy a true hospitality experience, you must use their services.
