Everest the highest peak

I did the Everest Base Camp trek with this tour operator as a solo traveler. I was placed in a group of five other fellow travelers. From start to finish, it was an incredible experience. Thanks to Sujan, who meticulously planned my trip and was highly responsive throughout the process. Our guide, Milan, was exceptional. His professionalism, kindness, and friendly behavior made the trek unforgettable and enjoyable. Milan's constant attention to our safety and wellbeing ensured a smooth and secure journey. Overall, it was a once in a lifetime experience, and I highly recommend this tour operator their outstanding service.

I wholeheartedly recommend them

I recently embarked on the 14-day Everest Base Camp trek, and I couldn't have been more impressed with the service. From the initial booking process to the trek itself, every aspect was meticulously handled with care and attention to detail. The person I communicated with during the booking process, was incredibly helpful and responsive. He patiently answered all my questions, both before and after booking, providing me with detailed information that eased any concerns I had as a solo female traveler. His thoroughness made me feel confident and safe about undertaking this adventure. During the trek, my guide proved to be an invaluable asset. Not only was he highly knowledgeable about the region and its challenges, but he also went above and beyond to ensure our group's safety and well-being. His daily debriefings were informative and motivating, and he provided valuable advice on best practices to avoid altitude sickness and other potential risks. I must also commend the porters, for their exceptional service. Always with a smile on their faces, they tirelessly carried our belongings, making sure we had everything we needed throughout the journey. I'm grateful for their contributions to making it memorable. Overall, my experience exceeded all expectations. Their exceptional service and support, coupled with the expertise of their guides and the kindness of their porters, made for an unforgettable trekking experience. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking to explore the majestic Himalayas.

They were exceptional.

Great lead guides. They have outstanding knowledge of the Everest base camp trek. They were exceptional in ensuring all were served food and drinks and even carried bags if some of us went sick. I was quite sick and they did outstanding work to help me!

Will definitely be a repeat customer!

Excellent service and prompt response especially from the owner and CEO of this travel company. We had a great experience during Annapurna Base Camp trek. Our porters and our guide were awesome! They went out of their way to make us feel safe, comfortable and we had to keep changing itineraries to accommodate all the things we want to do including paragliding. I highly recommend them for their knowledge of the Himalayas, 17 years of operating expertise and experience. Will definitely be a repeat customer!

One of the coolest experiences of my life!

Doing the Everest Base Camp trek was one of the coolest experiences of my life! The trail and trekking culture is one that you will never forget! I specifically want to call out our guide. I got sick half way and he took such good care of me. He has over 15 years of experience and it definitely showed. He also made the trip so fun and light and was always cracking jokes. I would book with them 1000x over.

Had an incredible time

We had an incredible time on our 14 day trek to Everest Base camp all thanks to our amazing guide & porter! Not only were they both super friendly, kind & fun to hang out with but we also learned so much from them about the area & Nepali culture. Our guide took such great care of us - always making sure we were prepared, getting what we needed & making sure that we were being safe in terms of altitude. He’s such a fun person to hang out with & after this trek we consider him a friend! I 100% recommend requesting him for your trek!! Our porter always has a smile on his face despite carrying over 30kg of our things on the same intense 14 day trek that we did with light day bags! He’s super friendly & knowledgeable about the area & we had a great time spending time with him & learning from him! 100% recommend requesting him for your trip - as a soon to be guide!

Perfect expedition!

Highly recommend this trip. Perfect expedition! We booked the Everest Panorama Trek and we definitely will book an other trek again with this company next year. Everything was perfectly organised. Our tour guide was so nice, friendly, polite and competent. He works long time as a guide so we felt absolutely save at all time and we learned a lot about the Himalaya, the mountains and the culture cause of his experience. We also hired a porter. He was so much friendly and polite all the time. We were lucky we did the tour with them! We highly recommend them. Hopefully we will meet them again. Thank you guys for this unforgettable expedition.

Will choose them again

Wow! What a beautiful adventure as we trekked to Annapurna Base Camp. Our guide was so friendly and accommodating and we were so lucky to have him. Because we were a small group of four, he let us push further than usual each day to give us more time at Base Camp. He not only paved our path, but made sure that we were comfortable every step of the way. His kindness even extended beyond his duties on his day off when I ended up in the hospital in Kathmandu and he stayed with me there all day. The operators checked on me each day, which just goes to show the added love of this company. When we return, we will 100% choose them again! And, next time, we hope that our guide will take us to his favorites!

A bucket list adventure.

In November 2023 me and my friend embarked on a bucket list adventure. We booked a private tour for the drive in and out EBC via Gokyo Ri trip. Right from the get go everything was smooth, the communication at the head office made it appear there was no time difference between the U.K. and Nepal. Upon arriving in Nepal the pick up from the airport and briefing were clear and to the point with no delays or issues. The trek itself has definitely been one of the most beautiful and difficult things I have ever embarked upon and I have NO regrets with my choice in agency or itinerary! My tour guide for the 3 week package we booked and every day he stayed happy, tried his best to keep our spirits uplifted and made sure all the little things behind the scenes were sorted so all we had to do was focus on the trek itself. I highly recommend having him as a tour guide especially if you’re trekking in the Everest Region. Also, our Porter deserves a special shout-out for showing the strength of these Nepalese people, much stronger than I could imagine to be.
