                            Gokul, un gestor turístico que ofrece seguridad y resolución

                            Creo que lo principal que Gokul ofrece es seguridad. Se nota que lleva años trabajando en el sector, es una persona sobradamente capaz y su fluidez con el castellano, la resolución a la hora de gestionar, su conocimiento de los recursos de la zona y su capacidad de respuesta ofrecen una garantía para contratar sus servicios..

                            Absolutamente recomendable

                            Contactamos por casualidad con la agencia, pero fue lo mejor que nos pudo pasar. Hicimos cuartos excursiones con ellos, culturales sobre todo y un trekking. El responsable, Gokul, nos organizo las actividades según nuestras circunstancias y habla un castellano perfecto. Todos los días nos escribía por whatsapp para saber cómo había ido la salida y el último día incluso se presentó a primera hora de la mañana para despedirnos, un detalle que no es habitual, y eso que hemos viajado mucho por medio mundo. Los guías son todos geniales, muy simpáticos. Es una agencia mas que recomendable y si volvemos a Nepal no lo dudaremos en contactar con ellos. Hay muchas agencias pero el trato que nos dieron fue inigualable. De hecho, no hay mas que mirar que todas las opiniones que tienen son excelentes. Por algo sera. Trabajan mucho con turistas españoles y tienen página web para con contactar antes de ir. Rubén
