Trek booking opened for 2024/25 ! A notice for Lukla flight diversion through Manthali Airport from March, April and October and November 2024 !
With two friends we decided to trek to Tsum valley and then from Doban over the pass directly to Ruby valley. The organiser was Tej (Nepal alternative Treks & expeditions). Already before the trek we got the most fair prices from his agency when we ask to organise the trip. When we arrived to KTM, he (Tej) made our permits and we left already next day with the guide cum porter Samir.
The Tsum valley we didn’t like very much. It is beautiful nature, but many tourists, full traffic of mules with goods, road construction and specially VERY high prices in tea houses and homestays (dal bhat 650 to 700 rupees, black tea 80 to 100 rupees…
But we loved the Ruby valley with Ganesh himal views, no tourists, normal Nepali village life and normal prices for food and accommodation…
All together we spend 23 days and this was perfect experience we will never forget.
Thanks to Tej from Nepal alternative Treks & expeditions.

My Amazing Everest Trip With Puru
Our experience with My Everest Trip was amazing, Puru helped us during our entire trip and even checked up on us as we were travelling without his company. By the time we finished our month in Nepal we felt like we were very good friends with Puru and everyone involved. If you're going to trek or even just travel in Nepal I highly recommend My Everest Trip!Jon Doe & Team

Wonderful experience in Upper Mustang and Chitwan
How nice to met Tej! We found a warm welcome and helpfulness! As soon as my boyfriend and I arrived in Nepal, he greeted us with beautiful flower garlands. We got to know each other in front of a Nepali tea and Tej managed to understand and organize a perfect tour according to our needs. He introduced us to Amar who turned out to be a knowledgeable and friendly guide who made the experience unique. Amar has a vast knowledge of the area, he got us involved on a route where history and environment merged. We reached the Upper Mustang up to an altitude of 3840m to enjoy the charm of this landscape on the border with Tibet. We travelled long distances by jeep and reached various small villages where we met the local people and spend time with them.x We ended our journey in the Chitwan National Park and on the last day we met up Tej again for a dinner organized by him in a typical restaurant. We left Nepal with good memories and we’ll certainly participate in other Nepal Alternative Treks & Expeditions projects!xJon Doe & Team
