Die Tour war perfekt organisiert von Pokhara MTB Adventure. Jagan hat alles besten vorbereitet und LX hat mich bestens durch das Gebiet und über die Trail geführt. Bei meinem nächsten Besuch möchte ich aber lieber längere Etappen biken und mehr Höhenmeter fahren. Bis dahin bleibt für LX noch Zeit, seine Kondition zu verbessern. Mein Tipp: Nicht mehr rauchen und Höhenmeter trainieren. :-)

We (gezin 48/46/14/13) werden opgehaald door een Jeep in Kathmanda en de volgende dag vlogen we met gids (Laxman) en mountain bikes naar Jomsom. Daarna in 5 dagen op de mountain bike naar Muktinath en daarna naar Beni, waar we weer werden opgehaald met de Jeep voor het laatste stukje naar Pokhara. Top trip, uitstekende gids, prima slapen, lekker eten, mooie routes en alles goed geregeld. Zeer aan te bevelen, Jagan en zijn team doen er alles aan om het je naar de zin te maken.

I had a morning off in Pokhara after my trek, I only had a couple of hours and I found this place. They made a custom ride for me to for my schedule and gave me an awesome guide with no prior notice! Highly recommend this place. The staff is really nice and helpful and the bikes were really nice too. The trail I rode was beautiful and really fun. If you like mountain biking at all go to here!

Booked a custom trip: first a jeepride to the Sangarkot top and viewpoint, then down the mountainbiking trail towards and around the lake. Then up into the hills, through villages and rice paddies and jungle, up towards the World Peace Stupa, then down through the forest and across the road towards the tibetan refugee camp (could also easily be combined with a visit to Devi's Falls and the Gupteshwor Mahadev cave if wanted, but I'd already been there.). Then back through small backroads in Pokhara towards the office. Would highly recommend this trip for the amazing and varied scenery. Also, Laxman was a great guide!

My buddy Gerald and I trekked on the mountain bikes we rented from Jagan at Pokhara Mountain Bike Adventure from Beni to Muktinath and down again. Jagan and his crew gave us excellent service and bikes at fair prices. The porter that he recommended - Supil - was also trustworthy and well-informed. Jagan himself is very socially-minded. I strongly recommend him!

Great experience, both from the point of view of the trails and the hospitality, the knowledge of the place and the kindness to take in our requests for changes in the program! If you want to do a mountain bike tour in Nepal this agency will make you happy.

Awesome!!! Rememberable forever!!! I rented a bike, put it on a plane from Pokhara to Jomsom, rode up to Muktinath and down during a week. I got good support getting a ticket and suggestions drawn on a map. Also support via WhatsApp during the adventure. It was tough but always fantastic and beautiful. (I'm 50+, pretty well trained and have done some MTB during my years.) Do it!
