Don't just take my word for it!!! This page contains some short references from Deepak's previous clients. Some of the references include e-mail addresses. These people have specifically stated they don't mind being contacted should you require further information about their time in Nepal with Deepak.

I have recently arrive back from my (5th??!!!) trip to Nepal and spent another fantastic 5 weeks with Deepak and his family. For me, the highlight of this stay in Nepal was our trip to Jyamrung to visit Deepak's family in their village. What an amazing couple of days, experiencing the ultimate in true Nepali hospitality. It is a time I will never forget. Photos from Jyamrung and other journies around Nepal can be found here.

We had a wonderful time in Nepal together with Deepak. He was a very good help when we needed him. We never had to ask him for help, he always helped spontaneously. He could tell us a lot about Nepal and the interesting things there. We left a good friend in Nepal. One thing is sure, when we will come back for the fourth time, we will go with Deepak.
Thanks Deepak for a splendid time in Nepal.

Dear Deepak
I can not thank you enough for the kindness & concern you have shown to me on this partial trek in the Kathmandu valley. Your fine qualities of honesty, kindness, generosity & wisdom all blended together with a fine sense of humor are quite exceptional. You are a credit to your parents and to your nation. I hope you continue to guide as well as study long into the future.
Thank you my friend this comes with a big hug.

Seriously, although it had a premature end, we had a brilliant time. Patient, interesting, informative, hard working, magical (black), full of shit & fun - you are all of this & more!
Jamie & Fiona (U.K.)

We were very fortunate to know Deepak & spent part of our stay in this beautiful country & particularly in our trek to the Everest region. Thanks to him we could appreciate the [beautiful] things & some of the secrets that the foreigners has this wonderful country. We can seriously recommend to everybody the companionship and 'black magic' that Deepak made for us during the hours in the lodges along the way. He from was part of our lives & always will consider a friend.

This is my really first time that I am by myself and I think I am lucky that I have meet you. I think it is boring to say you are very good guide, very funny, know so many things. So this is what I am gonna to say "you are the best!" And one more thing that's it all the trek I have done, You really help me so....so ..much. Deepak, the thing is you are very nice person (damn nice person). It is my pleasure to spent the time with you here in Nepal. One in the million is you that help me through this 10 days trekking........

Thank you for accompanying us again on our trekking in the Himalayas. Trekking with you means having an experienced, helpful, funny & trustworthy guide and we followed you blindly uphill. Singing on even the steepest trails you, helped us to get to our goal Kala Pathar & Gokyo Peak. We wish you the very best and hope to see you again.

It has been one hell of a pleasure getting to know you. Paula & myself really appreciated your guidance, support and fun even in higher altitudes, throughout this trip. We are sure that our paths will cross again. Thank you for 6 magical days.
