Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Raj crafted custom made Annapurna trek for us. ~ 4 days in Kathmandu and Pokahara, and 7 nights in the mountains. Every detail was tended to. From guided tours of the cities' historical sights, to wonderful hotels and tea houses, an excellent crew which consited of a guide we had throughout our stay and 2 porters and a chef when on the trail, and delicious healthy meals. We were thouroughly and thoughfuly taken care of! I cannot express in words the beauty of the mountains. I am already planning on a return trip for a long trek and I will be using Responsible Adventures again.

Three girlfriends and I booked a tailor made 7-day trek in the Annapurna with Responsible Adventures and I don’t think I can adequately articulate how much I loved this trip and our guide, chef, and porters.
We’re rather novice trekkers so we had lots of questions during the planning phase. Raj was patient and responsive to our emails about what to pack and what to expect during the trip.
Responsible Adventures took care of everything during the trip and we were able to focus on the amazing scenery, people, and experiences. We were met at the airport (at 1 am!) and transported to our hotel to get some much needed sleep. This might seem like a small thing but after 3 long flights, I was grateful not to have to navigate a taxi.
Shrijana, our guide, met us in the morning and took such great care of us up until we departed Nepal 10 days later. She shared a yoga practice with us everyday. It was a wonderful way to reflect on the day’s trek and to stretch out the tight hamstrings!
The food was delicious and geared toward providing our bodies with the nourishment needed. I can’t remember the last time I felt so healthy and strong. Dil, our chef, took great care in providing safe water and healthy meals and also hot beverages that warmed the body and soul. (I am still trying to replicate the honey and turmeric tea!).
Our porters were friendly and sociable, which made me happy. They, without question, out-hiked us but we’d all meet up for lunch and at the tea house for the evening. Responsible Adventures is one of the few companies who provide meals for the porters and staff. How Responsible Adventures provides for their employees was definitely a factor in us deciding to trek with them. If you’re searching for a trek, I hope you consider this too.
The trek itself was breathtaking. It was challenging in parts but never too difficult. We never felt rushed and often stopped for photos or to just marvel at the scenery. All in all, trekking in Nepal is amazing and Responsible Adventures made our trip one of the best experiences I’ve ever had.

Amazing Adventure with a Fantastic Guide, Chef and Porters - HIGHLY RECOMMEND Responsible Adventures
Nov. 2023 • Friends
Our "Tailor-made Annapurna Wellness Trek" exceeded our expectations. From the moment we met Shrijana, our guide, to the moment we said "goodbye" to our chef and porters, every detail was in place. We spent 7 days trekking. Our guide not only led us on the trek, but also led us through a daily yoga practice. Our chef provided us with local, healthy, vegetarian meals that were delicious and filling. Our porters were kind and efficient. Our guide was patient with us when we wanted to stop and take in the sights, the animals, the villagers selling their wares, or to adjust our poles, wardrobe, have a snack or anything else.
Responsible Adventures focuses on sustainability. They are one of just a handful or trekking companies that provide food for the porters. They ensured we were safe and even went so far as to filter water for us every day so we had safe drinking water. From the moment we started researching this adventure, Responsible Adventures was communicative and answered all of our questions (and we had a LOT of questions).

I went on a three week trek to Mount Kailash and back with Raj & a group of seven in 1996. It was the most spectacular and transformative adventure in my life and for the other members of the trek. Raj is knowledgeable larger than life character. I highly recommend what he is doing with Responsible Adventures.

Raj and his team put immense effort and focus into doing it right and this is apparent from the start. I have been privileged to know Raj for several years and he never fails to impress with his thoughtfulness, thoroughness and attention to ensuring sustainable, stylish and excellent adventures in Nepal’s mountains, hills and lowlands. He truly takes responsibility for sustainable tourism.

Great climbing expedition to Ama Dablam managed by RA - the route in was quieter and well chosen and included really interesting villages and high quality lodges At Ama Dablam BC we enjoyed a good position and the staff were helpful friendly and served plenty of high quality meals The porters were hard working and sherpas were extremely experienced and knowledgeable and safety was always at the centre of their thinking Thank you Raj for your responsiveness and kindness - will definitely use RA again!

Ama Dablam expedition. This is the second time I have been on an expedition through Raj and Responsible Adventures. The whole experience from booking through to the expedition itself was excellent, I can’t fault Raj and his team at all. Our trek leader was brilliant and looked after us so well. Our base camp team were excellent, the food that they provided was of a very high standard and they catered so well for a vegan diet. Thanks to Raj and your team for keeping us well and healthy and ready for the summit! I am already planning the next expedition with Raj.

We are a family with four kids and were planning a trip to Nepal. I had regular contact with Raj-he was very reliable and quick with the response. He suggested a travel plan for us and modified it to all our special request.

Responsible Adventures offer the best service you could ask for. Fully tailored and every need catered for (and more!). During our 14-days trekking around the Everest region, the team showed outstanding professionalism while still maintaining a fun and friendly environment. Having the local knowledge of Raj and his expert guides at our disposal allowed all of our questions to be answered, as well as showing us places we would never have thought to visit on our own.
The trek took us off the usual EBC route, taking the high pass from Khumjung to Pangboche. This was a highlight of the trek for me as we were off the beaten path and high above the usual route - often being the only ones on the trail.
The food throughout the trek was as good as you could wish for given the remoteness of the area you are in, with all the teahouses providing a great place to relax in the evenings.
On the shorter days of the trek, a film would be shown or a tour round a traditional Sherpa house arranged for us. It's these small details that made the experience one I will forever be grateful for.
Huge thank you to Raj and the rest of the Responsible Adventures team!
