      5/5 – Iconic Holiday (Nepal Trip Planner) – Highly Recommended

      Our recent trip to Nepal covering Ghandruk, Pokhara, Jomsom and Mukti Nath became truly unforgettable, thanks to Iconic Holiday, owned by Upendra. From the very beginning until the end of our journey, Upendra ensured everything was perfectly organised. He helped us plan the trip day-by-day, patiently discussing every detail. The hotels and stays he booked were absolutely scenic, comfortable, and offered breathtaking views. The food arrangements were excellent throughout the journey, and the vehicle provided for our travel across Nepal, Pokhara, and Jomsom was clean, reliable, and made the long drives very smooth. Upendra was always available, ensured our comfort, and took care of every need. His planning, coordination, and professionalism made our experience truly seamless and enjoyable. I highly recommend Iconic Holiday to anyone planning a trip to Nepal. If you are visiting Pokhara, Ghandruk, or Jomsom, Mukti Nath definitely get in touch with Upendra—he will plan a far better and more memorable stay than you can imagine.
