Beautiful Trek with a wonderful companion
I completed the Langtang Valley trek in March, and it was fantastic. The activity level was ideal, and the views and surroundings along the way were breathtaking. During the trek, we also saw some animals and birds. My guide was a wonderful companion on the journey, telling me stories and explaining things I was interested in; he also recommended snacks and drinks I should try. In addition, the hotel I stayed in on my arrival and departure days was excellent, as it was lovely to unwind before and after the journey. Everyone was incredibly pleasant and helpful, so it was really easy for me because everything went so smoothly.
