Worry-free holiday hike

Annapurna circuit trek.
I got Hari’s number via a friend who recently did a trekking with him and he was so enthusiastic about Hari that I decided to give it a shot. So I contacted Hari and he gave me a lot of information on different hikes and we decided on one. In the end, we had to change the dates and trekking because of unforeseen circumstances but Hari was very flexible. He wasn’t available himself on these dates so he arranged me another very experienced guide and managed this trip. So for Hari as a tourguide I can’t really tell, but for Hari as a person and organisation I can tell you that you will be welcomed warmly to the real Nepal besides doing the trekking, you will be very well taken care of and get a good deal compared to the other prices I’ve seen for other organisations with lots of additional benefits provided by Holiday Hiking. He’s a very friendly and experienced man who knows these trekkings and Nepal as if he were God and created them both.
Would very much recommend!
I hope next time when I come to Nepal, I can make it happen to go with the grandmaster Hari himself! 🤪
