we went on the 4-day kayak clinic with paddle nepal and had an amazing experience. I can't recommend them enough. the staff were extremely professional and made the trip a lot of fun while challenging us. paddle nepal has the trip down to a science- they have thought of everything and we always felt safe. would love to go again!

Great value and I was very impressed with their guide to client ratio, most of the time it was 2:1 with an additional two support staff members on the gear raft. They made us comfortable on and...

Recently spent a week in Pokhara with two young children and used the two day rafting tour down the Lower Seti to reach Chitwan. Having contacted several reputable rafting operators in Kathmandu with limited success, Paddle Nepal were quick to understand parents' concerns and promptly replied to all emails with detailed answers. Safety gear for kids is readily supplied. They... More

Namaste! Thanks for your review. I so am happy to see that you enjoyed your Canyoning trip with us and that you appreciated the professional equipment that we provide. In Nepal there are very little regulations, and many companies cut corners on important safety measures tp save money which is dangerous for everyone. We work very hard to raise the... More

The safety standards and equiptment were excellent and we had two safety kayakers with us for the trip. Our guide Basanta was excellent and we learned a lot about rafting and kayaking on this trip. We faced 4-4+... More

As an instructor for an outdoor experiential education program for teenagers in Ladakh, India, I was hyper-aware of their attention to detail and professionalism. The evening before we left, we had a safety briefing about what to expect on the... More
