    • EmployeeArun Karki @ nepalgram.com on 25/08/2019 - 21:34

      Why are you guys negative to this level ?

      I am offering on AUS $325 (and this is according to Nepali local market's exchange rate). If you are getting in cheaper (just AUS$45) why are you offending.

      If your conversion makes $370, i STILL CAN OFFER IN $325.

      • EmployeeArun Karki @ nepalgram.com on 27/08/2019 - 18:00

        Hello Alvian,

        What do you mean by the deal hasn't started. Can you help me with this??

        Regarding the price USD will look smaller but as it is a Australian site, AUS dollar might be a good currency. Easy to view the deal.

          +1

          What do you mean by the deal hasn't started

          I am going by the deal start date of 31 August 2019 (and an end date of 31 December 2019). You put it there when you wrote the post. See the blue IN X DAYS in front of the deal title? It is counting down to 31 August.

          Regarding currencies, in which denomination do you want to charge your customers, Australian Dollars or US Dollars? If you want to charge $325 Australian Dollars, then the current title is OK. If you want to charge $250 US dollars, then you should Google 250 usd to aud (returning AU $370) and make the title "Poonhill Trekking in Nepal - US $250 (~AU $370) @ Nepalgram". It is covered here.

          A better title would be "3-Day Poonhill Trekking in Nepal - US $250 (~AU $370, Was US $400) @ Nepalgram".

          Hello Eyzonme

          It includes both food and transport.

          Inclusion:
          1-Transportation to the trekking start point and transport at the end of the trek to Pokhara
          2- Food while trekking, that means breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
          3- Entry fee, TIMS and Trekking permit
          4- A guide
          5- A porter
          6- All accommodation during the trek

    • syba on 25/08/2019 - 21:21

      Based on that this seems like a deal. This deal is AU$325 vs your "discounted" fee of US$300. Not that I'm going to Nepal, but I'd prefer to pay AU$325 over US$300 anyway (based on current exchange rates anyway). No idea if this is a scam or not, but based on face value it seems ok?

      • 0PriceJack0 on 25/08/2019 - 21:25

        It seems good to me…..transport and food are so cheap there. Make sure they include tea house + food on the way to poonhill and returning

      • EmployeeArun Karki @ nepalgram.com on 25/08/2019 - 21:28

        It is not a scam or nothing like that.

        Let me make you clear on what happend.

        I was posting a deal for Manaslu circuit trekking and that was very first deal submission.I don't know why but everyone started talking negative about the deal. I was posting for the first time and there were some rule violation like i ticked on freebie, i posted price on USD which i was supposed to post on AUS Dollor.

        I am feeling strange about all these scam you guys are talking about.

        Before your criticism on anything, i suggest those gentle man to check the site, visit home and click on about us page under home for legal documents.

    This forum is the wrong place for you to post your offers.
    Especially since you're posting so frequently and people do not see value in what you offer.
    Your last post had ZERO positive votes.

      Hello Payton,

      You are right i need to stop posting offers everyday.
      BUT this forum might not be just for small amount deals right ?? Deals are always deals if it is a million or a cent.

      Yes there are no voting but there are more than 70 clicks on the link. This means people are interested in the deal. They might not want to buy it straight away but when they plan to visit Nepal they will.

      Planning holiday is not like buying a take away coffee right ?? or grabbing a bread and run to work.

      I am offering the cheap price, if it is not useful for you just ignore. But please keep respect on those people who are clicking on the site or to those who are interested to purchase it.

      Hope I clarify your concern

        Mate, I don't think you are understanding what people are trying to say.
        1. Your deals are not deals, they are your face value offers.
        2. They not saying its a scam in a fishy way, its a scam more like a spam.
        3. Clicks, because they want to know what really it is. You got pricing mix ups, legitimacy of your offer, and really trying to understand if its a DEAL and not just another business spam.

        ozbargain is a platform to post deals that really values the consumer. Reading through your comments, you are pushing to promote your website and appears to be advertising your services/offers than posting an actual deal.

        If you are unsure what DEAL means, have a look at the homepage/highlighted deals. You will understand what I mean.

    • EmployeeArun Karki @ nepalgram.com on 25/08/2019 - 23:28

      Hello Voteoften,

      This package is a short trekking of 3 days from pokhara to Pokhara. If you talk about arrival to departure, this trek will be of 7 days as trekking starts from Pokhara but you will fly in at Kathmandu Nepal. Offered deal (apparently it is not a deal, will correct it from the next posts) is 3 days of trekking and includes food & accomodation, Permit, Guide, porter, transportation to and from trek.

      Things not included are any kinds of drinks and anything that involves apart from 3 days of trekking. This could be your international air fare, kathmandu to pokhara transportation, food and accommodation in pokhara and Kathmandu.

      What expenses does it NOT include?
      In the illustrated price; exclusion is; gratitude and any alcoholic or non-alcoholic drinks.

      Are there are gratuities expected. If so, how much and in what currency?
      Gratitude are not mandatory but it is expected. In general people give 15-20% of the trip cost. In this case it can be more or less AUS $59.

      If you want to pay in Nepali rupee that is fine as well.

      Thank you

    I did the poon hill sunrise trek as part of the Anapurna circuit back in 2005.
    Poon Hill was overcrowded with tourists back then making it unpleasant. I can only imagine what it's like now.
    It definitly wasn't the highlight of my trek.

    • EmployeeArun Karki @ nepalgram.com on 26/08/2019 - 17:51

      Hello Axlton,

      It is nice to hear that you have been to Nepal. If you make good timing to get to the top of the poonhill crowd can be deceived to some extent.

      If you ask my personal experience as a guide, it is still crowded but for those clients who want to stay in a peaceful environment i take them to the next hilltop. If you remember a hilltop right next to Poonhill that is where i take my clients to skip the crowd. There is a proper trial to go to this next hill top and now there is a new trekking trail called Mohare danda.

      I am going Mohare danda trek on coming month.

      For your ending line, it is definitely not a major attraction for those who are doing Annapurna base camp trek or ghorepani ghandruk trek. In case of Poonhill trek, this is a best spot for the mountain view, this is what i mean.

      Thank you.

    Seems like a lot for three days assisted trekking. Just to break this down, cause I have done this hike, hut stays are about $10 a night and food is about $3-5 a meal. If tips are also on top of this then the money basically just goes towards tour company.

    • EmployeeArun Karki @ nepalgram.com on 26/08/2019 - 17:55

      Hello Uberlscool,

      Did you calculate the cost of permit, porter, Tims, transportation to and from the trekking ??

      And as an operator we keep profit but this price Aus $325 is with very small amount of profit. Nepalgram started its service from 2018 so we are offering good value for all the package.

      For your information we customize the trip as well.

      Thank you for your comments.

        Porter is paid by gratuity. Transport $40, permit and Tim’s $50
