I have been trekking many times in Nepal since 1994. For the first time, Norsang was our guide for the Kanchenjunga trek in 2004, a difficult trek that could be done only as a camping trek at this time. Norsang was a very competent guide, organizing everything perfectly: Airplane tickets, permits, trekking staff, food, tents etc. Since then, it was clear to me that Norsang would be “the” guide for our future treks. So we went later to Dolpo in 2009 with Norsang, then around Manaslu in 2013 with his brother Sanjay. This year (November 2019), my wife and I decided to go trekking in the Upper Mustang. Naturally, we asked again Norsang to organize the trek. I had specific requirements because I wanted absolutely to keep away from the motor road that runs along the Kali Gandaki. Norsang proposed a fantastic itinerary, with breathtaking views of canyons, Annapurna, Nilgiri, and Dhaulagiri. He was very well organized, very patient when we were slow, chose carefully the places where we stayed. I definitely recommend Norsang to anybody going trekking in Nepal. He has a vast experience in all trekking areas, has great contacts in the local population. He is 100% reliable, his quotes are perfectly clear, as well as what is included and what is not, there are no surprises as far as the cost of the trek. And his fees are very reasonable.

No question: Norsang is a five-star guide. Lucky you if you go trekking with him, you’ll have a fantastic experience wherever he takes you to.
