Gorgeous Everest Base Camp.
We had a brilliant trek to Everest Base Camp with RadiantTreks and our superb guide Gokarna Kharnal and his professional team. Hard work at times, in snow, but really beautiful and rewarding.

Great Everest base camp trek

Amazing
He was our guide during my Everest Base Camp trek, and I still remember his incredibly sweet, humble, and gentle personality. He made the journey even more special with his warmth, patience, and genuine care. It’s wonderful to see him taking this next step and building something of his own in the trekking world. Wishing him all the very best for this new chapter and continued success in all his future endeavours. May he keep inspiring many more people to experience the beauty of the Himalayas! ❤️🏔️

My Unforgettable Langtang Valley Trek with Radiant Treks
I completed the Langtang Valley Trek in May 2026 with Radiant Treks & Tours, and it was truly one of the most memorable experiences of my trip to Nepal. As a solo traveler, I was a little nervous before starting the trek, but I felt comfortable and well supported throughout the journey. My guide, Krishna, was excellent — friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and always attentive to my comfort and safety. The Langtang Valley was absolutely beautiful, with peaceful villages, lush forests, waterfalls, local culture, and stunning Himalayan views. Reaching Kyanjin Gompa was definitely one of the highlights of the trek. Krishna was always there to help, whether it was adjusting the walking pace, answering my questions, or sharing interesting stories about the local culture and mountains. His guidance made the entire journey much easier and more enjoyable. Everything was well organized by Radiant Treks & Tours, and I really appreciated their support throughout the trek. I would definitely recommend them to anyone planning a trek in Nepal, especially solo travelers. Thank you, Krishna and Radiant Treks, for making my Langtang adventure so special! — Emily Carter Langtang Valley Trek | May 2026

Everest base camp & Medi-vac
We completed the Everest Base Camp Trek and what an incredible experience it was. From the moment we landed, the team at Radiant made sure we were completely looked after. We arrived in Kathmandu a few days before the trek began, and as soon as we got to the airport they were there waiting to take us to our hotel. They organised our porter bags and even safely stored our additional luggage while we were on the trek. We were lucky enough to have both a senior guide and junior guide, along with two porters, so with the five of us trekking we became a group of nine. The evenings spent in tea houses playing card games, and the days laughing together while surrounded by some of the most incredible scenery the Himalayas have to offer, truly made this trip magical. Finally reaching Everest Base Camp is overwhelming, and the feeling of pride, it’s a feeling you simply have to experience for yourself. Unfortunately, our trek ended with a Medi-vac from Gorak Shep, I had sever food poisoning and another member of our group developed a bad chest infection. Gokarna arranged the helicopter directly with our travel insurance and was waiting for us at the hospital when we arrived by ambulance. As half of our group was admitted to hospital and the other half wasn’t, he brought all of our luggage to ensure we had everything we needed, before taking the remaining members of our group back to the hotel so they didn’t have to organise transport themselves after such a difficult day. We ended up spending three days in hospital, and throughout it all the Radiant team continued checking in on us even after we were discharged. Although our trek ended earlier than planned, it did not take away from the incredible experience we had. I would do it again in a heartbeat, though I might avoid the hot chocolate next time.

Brilliant trekking company - consider Manislu trek and use Radiant Treks to explore this Himalaya.
Radiant treks scored a definite 5/5 for every part of the trek. We had 12 days Manislu Circuit which was managed with perfect attention to detail from first contact to end of trip. All questions were answered usually within an hour even at antisocial times. We were sent a list of items to bring, lent a clean sleeping bag and down jacket at no extra charge and these were vital against the cold higher up the mountains. Gokarna, the MD of Radiant Treks accompanied us and briefed us each evening for the following day, ensured we were well and comfortable, told us about food and what to try, and importantly knew every mountain that came in to view. His enthusiasm and love of the mountains and his country was adopted by us all. Gokarna and his porter guide set the pace which ultimately ensured we were well prepared for the Larkya pass at 5100 m, higher than any of us had previously trekked. Manislu is a tough trek. We were all fit, had trained for duration but cannot prepare for altitude. We are in our 40’s -mid 60’s and we went at a manageable pace and took breaks where needed. We may not have been as quick as some 25 year olds but we kept to the schedule with no problem. Our porters were delightful. Nothing was a problem or too much effort. They smiled and laughed with us, our communication was intuitive to them and they visibly loved their land despite the hardships of their job. The tea shops were basic in general on this trip. It didn’t matter - we had 2 to a room, cold as we reached greater heights but ‘blankets’ (duvets) abundantly to keep us warm overnight. We missed hot showers- these were cold or tepid and no warm bathrooms in sight! All part of the experience and not critical. In summary I would urge any trekker to consider this trek and choose this company. So necessary to get this right and make the most of a Nepal experience.

Manaslu Circuit with Radiant Treks
From the moment we were met by Gokana at the airport, to the briefing and then the whole Manaslu Circuit trek, our group of 4 (older) women could not have had a better experience. Gokana and his team's experience in the mountains, their patience, kindness and concern for our well-being made trekking over the Larkye Pass a tough, but magical experience. Their knowledge and timing of our days and summit day according to the weather conditions ensured that we had a clear summit - perfection! I would 100% recommend Radiant Treks - I have trekked with another company on the ABC route - but Radiant far surpasses my experience this time round. Gokana - a HUGE thank you to you, Umbar, Ravi, Bhodi and Govender for making our Manaslu Trek such a success. I hope to be back next year to take on another challenge with you.

Manaslu Magic with Radiant Treks
If you are thinking of doing the Manaslu Circuit, do yourself a favour and go with Radiant Treks. From the very first day to the moment we staggered triumphantly over Larke La Pass, every single step of the way we felt supported, encouraged, safe and genuinely cared for. A massive shoutout to our incredible porters, Buddhi and Gobindha, who somehow managed to carry impossible loads while still smiling and overtaking us on steep ascents as if gravity simply didn’t apply to them. Absolute legends. Our guides, Arbindha and Ravi, were outstanding — calm, knowledgeable, endlessly patient and always quietly watching over the group to make sure everyone was coping well. Their acclimatisation plan was spot on, and thanks to their careful pacing and attention, our whole group successfully summited Larke La Pass safely. And then there is Gorkana, who founded Radiant Treks and has clearly built a team with heart, integrity and genuine passion. You can feel his leadership in the culture of the whole company. There were countless small acts of kindness along the way — checking oxygen levels, making sure we were warm enough, fed enough, hydrated enough and occasionally emotionally stable enough after yet another staircase masquerading as a hiking trail. 😂 The scenery in Manaslu is spectacular, but it was the people from Radiant Treks who truly made the experience unforgettable. We arrived as clients and left feeling like family. These guys ROCK.

Perfect trekking experience
Trekking with Radiant Treks was an excellent experience. All arrangements were handled seamlessly, from the airport pickup to the drive to Machha Khola and throughout the trek (Manaslu circuit with Tsum Valley) itself. Our guide, Krishna, was professional, attentive, and highly supportive, ensuring our well-being at all time. We felt safe, comfortable, and well cared for throughout the journey and we truly appreciated the high standard of service provided by the company.

I recently completed the Everest Base Camp trek with the superb Radiant Treks and their guide Gokarna. This is the 3rd time we've trekked with Gokarna and I couldn't recommend him and his team too highly. He's careful, thoughtful and fun to be with. We had a fantastic trip.

We did the Everest base camp trek with Radiant treks. We had an amazing experience. We had to be flexible because of the weather - and Gokarna always talked us through the options. The team supported us so well in reaching base camp. I couldn't recommend them more highly

Nous sommes partis 16 jours avec Radiant Trek à travers l Himalaya et c’était un des plus beaux moments de notre voyage. Nous avons été accompagnés par Rabie et Sitaram, deux guides expérimentés et adorables qui nous ont conduits aux confins de vallées extraordinaires tout en nous apprenant beaucoup de choses sur le Népal et les montagnes. Nous ne pouvons que recommander Radiant Treks si vous souhaitez explorer ce magnifique pays qu’est le Népal!

I had a great experience trekking the Manaslu circuit with my friend Isabelle and mountain guide Ambar. Radiant treks was very accomodating to accept my last minute request to join the trek and ordered my permits swiftly. We met at the office in Kathmandu and they patiently explained the details of the trek.

Our guide Ambar is a very experienced guide who has travelled all over Nepal. He was super flexible to adjust our plans according our wishes and the weather.  And he helped to keep the cost low by agreeing good rates at the lodges.

Thank you Ambar and Radiant Treks!

A constant theme you’ll read among these reviews is that there is no need to consider other operators - and after my 3 week experience along the Annapurna circuit trek, I could not agree more!

From the outset they provided comprehensive and honest information. As an inquisitive person, no question was too much, providing detailed itineraries, packing lists, and general info.

Once I arrived, everything was taken care of, all I had to think about for 3 weeks was putting one foot in front of the other. My guide Soobar and Porter Tulasee were exceptional, both knowledgeable and genuinely wanted my experience to be the best. While on trek they ensured each accomodation was suitable and comfortable, and were happy to alter the itinerary to suit the conditions and walking pace.

During the trek GK back in Kathmandu would check in with both me and the guide to ensure the trip was running smoothly.

After the trek the team continued to provide the highest level of service, checking in with me and taking me to some of Kathmandu’s culture experience

To summarise - book a tour with this company, and you can thank me later.

10/10 for Gokarna and Radiant Treks, GK is the best guide you’ll find in Nepal.

From before we even stepped foot in the country, GK was there to answer any of our questions and included a in depth packing list via WhatsApp which was a huge help in preparation for the trek.

Radiant Treks had us sorted with everything we could’ve needed, from domestic flights, jeep transportation, accommodation, food and all the other things required while trekking. Nothing was ever an issue, any requests we had GK could find a way to make it work.

Radiant Treks went over and above in all areas, and provided really friendly porters, which we couldn’t have done the trip without!

Shoutout to GK, if you’re reading this and looking for a guide for any of the treks in Nepal, he’s the man. In a country with so many companies offering these services, I’m certain none could offer such a positive experience. Our guide GK became someone we would have dinner and coffee with, outside of the trek.

Overall an incredible trek, definitely hard work and you have to earn the views at the top which only makes it sweeter when you get there.

10/10 don’t even bother researching other companies if you’re looking to do a trek, Radiant Treks is all you’ll need.
