Linda, it was a pleasure to design your trip and execute it too. Had some nervous moments, but you are such a wonderful traveler - you provide feedback early, and show appreciation when issues get resolved. This is much much appreciated.
Am sure to transfer the wonderful feedback to Sherab. He is a gem!

Vinitha, it was an absolute pleasure to design this trip for you, and go through the process - chatting withing KimKim - getting into a whatsapp video chat to learn about interests deeper, and then design the trip and eventually execute it. As you said, some changes were required last minute, but was not something unmanageable..
Rabin is an exceptional guide, and we totally recognise it - no wonder he has been with us for the longest time. we are sure to transfer this feedback to him.
Namaste

Rhona, I am so happy it did finally happen. We had all waited so long for the trip to finally take place. Thanks for being so adjustable and so patient.
I will definitely transfer this wonderful review to my team and to Namaboudha Resort, and nothing would have happened without them and their excellent attention to detail and service.
I am so sorry I did not get to meet you personally. I would have loved that!
Until next time.

Yogesh has been very good and helpful, he made my whole trip. Everything went exactly as in the itinerary, except for a minor mistake on Temple Tree Hotel check out and pick up time. The hotel staff told me the wrong time which was one and half hour earlier than the arranged. The last day photograph tour was the best, far beyond my exception. The guide was a super kind and knowledgeable gentleman. He was the best during this trip.
Overall, great experience. I will surely consider Social Tour next time in Nepal.
Zhen, thanks for the wonderful review and apologies for the miscommunication in the hotel in Pokhara. They constantly change staff and sometimes communication between the teams is not always perfect.
I will definitely let Yogesh know how good you felt under his care. He has recently joined the company and is already a great asset in preparing all the logistics for the trip.
Thanks for taking the time, and thanks for the review. See you soon again in Nepal!
