Booked a 14 day trip in Nepal through I Tour Nepal. Rabindra was easy to deal with and very prompt in replying to emails. The tour itself was excellent and went very smoothly, even when we added a Heli tour of Everest basecamp to our itinerary. Our guides and drivers were very capable and went out of their way to ensure we were happy. Would have no hesitation in recommending the company to anyone contemplating a trip to Nepal.
