Reviews
Fantastic 5 days short trekking to Gosaikunda
We did a very short trek in Nepal and that was trekking to Gosaikunda. It was well- organized by Base Camp Hike. Though it 5 days trek, we enjoyed it a lot with guide Bishnu. We experienced Mountain views, pristine holy lakes, local culture, and lifestyle. I suggest to visit tourists if they want to do a short trek in Nepal.
Wonderful Gosaikunda Trek with Base Camp Hike
I had wonderful Gosaikunda Trekking with Base Camp Hike in 2019.
At first, thank you so much Jayaram(director of Base Camp Hike) for everything. He responded to our questions answer very clearly and quickly before the book the trip. Not only that, he provided us best guide(Kamal). Kamal is a very friendly guide and professional.
From Luribina, I saw beautiful views of mountains and the lake was just amazing. I really enjoyed 5 days trek.
