Kathmandu Tours and Trips

This was my 5th trek in the Himalayas and my 2nd to EBC. While age and more knee pain made the trek more challenging than years ago, I made it to Base Camp and enjoyed the experience. World Expeditions really have got the balance right. The tents and campsites are far better than most of the lodges and we were so well looked after by our guide Anand and his team.

I had high expectations for this trip before we set off, and I wasn't disappointed. The trek itself offers stunning scenery and strikes a good balance between easier and harder days, a nice mix of lodge and tent accommodation, and occasional encounters with other trekkers without becoming the procession that the more popular EBC trek is. I couldn't fault the World Expeditions team that looked after us — from the porters, to the cooks, to the sherpas, everyone was committed to doing the best they could to ensure we had the most memorable experience. Special shout out to our lead sherpa Subol, whose extensive guiding expertise was evident throughout the trek. His knowledge, judgment, and organisation (not to mention sense of humour!) were a key part of the success of the trek. Based on this, my first experience with World Expeditions, I would not hesitate to use them again for my next trekking experience.

I loved this trip. It was well paced with an excellent guide/cook and porters. These elements made the trip very doable and enjoyable. Overall a great immersion into both the Nepalese culture and the magnificent mountains that can only be experienced in this part of the world. Namaste

Wonderfully organised throughout. Unfortunately I became ill towards the end of the trek, but the team handled everything professionally and efficiently. It was reassuring to see that they had well-established procedures in place to deal with almost any eventuality.

If the Everest Base Camp is on your bucket list, or you're just looking for the next adventure, I can't recommend World Expeditions and their amazing Team high enough. Everyone in our tour made it to the EBC without any issues. Our Main Guide, Roy, made sure we were OK, informed us each evening what was coming up the next day and could bust a guitar out of nowhere and entertain us. Look, Anil and Myla also kept the pace steady for 14 days of trekking as well as dishing up great meals and bring us black tea and washing water each morning. The amazing Team of Porters got our kit to the days final destination and always with a smile. If you have one shot at the EBC and you want to go with a company that genuinely looks after their people, the locals and the environment, good news, you found them!

Our Annapurna Chitwan experience was fantastic. Our guide Yangjin was really amazing, so kind and thoughtful and she was very organised and accommodating to our needs. Tula, Kamal, their support team and the porters were wonderful. The food was varied and plentiful and pretty tasty. Kamala was a great cook. Don’t be fooled that this hike is ‘easy’, it is quite challenging in parts but the trekking crew is very supportive and observant to your needs. Lots of water breaks and tea/ lunch breaks well timed.
