“Ace was a great company to travel with. The booking was seamless and the itinerary was very well-balanced. Travel time, daily distances, accommodations, and meals were all nicely planned and executed. Duffel bags, sleeping bags, and down jackets were provided - which was a bonus. This company truly cares for their guests and their travel experience before, during, and after the trip. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!”

“The EBC trek was challenging, physically and mentally, and beyond gorgeous and fulfilling. A big part of my success was the entire team from Ace, from the drivers to the facilitators at the airport to the Kathmandu guides, and particularly our incredible guide Ram. They took care of our every need, and made our trip run so smoothly. The trek was beautiful, full of incredible views, challenging and varied terrain, and personal achievements. Thank you Ace and Ram for making this possible!”

“Dear ACE THE Himalaya Team

I would like to thank everyone for the unforgettable 42 days with you in Nepal. From the individual planning to the last day of the trip everything worked perfectly.

There are many tour operators in Kathmandu. The competition is very big but there are differences in service and professionalism.

I have chosen ACE because of its professional appearance, sustainability and the cooperation with the mountain people in the Gorkha Valley who have been badly affected by earthquakes. About 80% of the employees come from this region. Many of them lost their homes or relatives in 2015 and many were destroyed by the earthquake.
Prem K Khatry the Managing Director is doing an incredible job. He has built up many jobs at ACE as well as SAMBHAV NEPAL. The organisation collects money for the reconstruction of schools, infrastructure, water systems, houses etc. in the Gorkha area. Most of the guides come from there and can feed their families thanks to the work at ACE.

Before my trip I also participated in the Greiffeseelauf 2018 (half marathon) as a sponsor runner for SAMBHAV NEPAL (Switzerland). Thanks to my private sponsors I was able to transfer about 800 USD to SAMBHAV.
Also the occasion was the ideal preparation for my time in the Himalayas.

On the first day after my arrival I took part in an unforgettable city tour with ACE. This gave me a first insight into the life and culture of Nepal.
A few days later I started the 14 days EVEREST BASE CAMP (EBC) Trek with a small group (3 guests, 1 guide & 2 porter). Our guide RESHAM RANA took good care of us the whole time and knows every single mountain with name and height. The guesthouses where we spent the night were among the best in the region. The highlight of the trek was the sunrise in Kalaphatar (5643m) with view on the roof of the world and the Khumbu glacier.

After the EBC Trek I was driven for some days in the REBUILD HOME PROGRAM to Aruphokari (Gorkha valley) where I stayed overnight in the tent with a family.
The family took good care of me and I was able to experience the Dashain Hindu Festival and my birthday close up with the local families. Many thanks (dhanyebad) to SUJAN KHATRY and his family for the cordiality.
Besides, I worked with the construction workers to build new houses in the region. The REBUILD HOME PROGRAM was a social service that I can recommend to everyone. It gives you an insight into the daily life in the village.
In addition, one gives something back to the hearty locals and does good for the wonderful country and the people.

After the social service I was picked up and taken directly to the start of the 18 days MANASLU CIRCUIT TREK. My guide RAM PRESAD LAMICHHANE took care of us during the whole tour and has become a good friend. Our group consisted of 4 guests, 1 guide and 2 porter. The guesthouses were always very well selected and we always had the best service from ACE from start to finish. The highlight of the MANASLU CIRCUIT TREK was the crossing of the Larkya Pass (5141m). The trek was unforgettable and the nature fantastic.

After the whole program I had some days of rest in Pokhara and Begnas Lake. Ace put together a great program and organized the accommodations for me.

After the tours we had a farewell dinner with the guides in a typical Nepalese restaurant.

The 6 weeks in Nepal remain with me in best memory. I hope that I can come back as soon as possible.

Many thanks to all involved for the unforgettable time. I wish you, your families and Nepal much success for the future.

Namaste & Dhanyebad
