Stories from Our Travelers

Absolutely the Best Trekking Company in the Singalila Region! Sandakphu and Beyond is hands down the best trekking company in the entire Singalila region. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Their planning, professionalism, and attention to every small detail truly set them apart. All the guides and staff members are incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and friendly. They make you feel safe, motivated, and cared for throughout the trek. Their understanding of the terrain, weather, and local culture is outstanding, and they always go the extra mile to ensure everyone is comfortable and enjoying the journey. What impressed me the most was the positive attitude and teamwork of the entire crew. Whether it was guidance on the trail, managing logistics, or simply encouraging trekkers during tough climbs, they were always there with a smile. If you’re planning a trek to Sandakphu–Phalut or anywhere in the Singalila range, I highly recommend Sandakphu and Beyond. With them, you don’t just trek — you create unforgettable memories. Truly a world-class trekking experience! 🌄✨

Guides and Hosts: The guides, especially Sasang Sir and Nirmal Sir, were incredibly caring and attentive. They made sure no one was left behind and frequently checked on everyone, ensuring a comfortable experience for all. Nepali Hospitality: We experienced genuine Nepali hospitality throughout the trek. The hosts were exceptional, always ensuring we had complete meals and asking repeatedly if we needed anything else. They would wait until we had finished before starting their own meals, showing true warmth and care. Homestay Experience: The homestay hosts, often couples, prepared heartwarming meals after a long day of trekking, adding a personal touch to the experience. Group Dynamics: The group mates were also wonderful, making the entire journey enjoyable and memorable. Scenic Beauty: The views were absolutely spectacular. We got to witness the majestic Kanchenjunga range and other grand mountains. Conclusion: Overall, just come prepared and you’ll have an amazing time. Highly recommended!

Sasang and Nirmal Sir were amazingly good. Their knowledge and experience of the forests, birds and flowers makes the trek so much more memorable. Trek itself is so pretty, you can see Kanchenjanga and so many more behemoth mountains. Sandakphu ans beyond team have done a great job in organising the whole trek. Must recommended! ✨️
