The trip overall was incredible! Every aspect was planned out and coordinated, and as a trip manager was incredible. Very good balance of fun and informative, whilst also staying on top of it the entire time. China is such a beautiful country, and everyone should go and explore it if they ever get the chance. Highly recommended!!

Amazing company and trek to Poon Hill, ABC, and Mardi Himal

First time in Nepal, and I quickly found that Nepalese people are wonderful, warm and welcoming, have incredible food and amazing mountains. Bal, my guide, and Nima, my porter, were wonderful throughout my solo 12 days hike to Poon Hill, ABC, and Mardi Himal. They both took great care of me, were always ahead on what was upcoming on our itinerary, and booked places that had excellent hospitality, food, and rooms. I had an amazing time with them and highly recommend them!!

Greatest trip of my life

Trekking through Upper Mustang was one of the best experiences of my life. The landscapes were the most breathtaking I’ve ever seen, and the cultural experience—monasteries, villages, and local traditions—was unforgettable. My guide, Rammesh, was absolutely amazing. He was knowledgeable, caring, and made the trek feel smooth, safe, and deeply meaningful. I can’t imagine a better guide.

Everest Base Camp Trek review by Julian Pomery

I'm 70. I had a yearning to see Everest since I was quite young. As I grew older, I hoped to do the trip with my sons but the length of the trip was not conducive. I wasn't particularly fit but trained for a few months beforehand, not knowing if I could manage the amount of walking , let alone the unknown element of altitude. Arriving in Kathmandu, the hotel was excellent and we had time to visit the old city of Thamel. The flight to Lukla was a great experience in a small plane, next the start of the trek. The 'Teahouses' along the way offered a warm convivial welcome, with varying numbers of other trekkers present. Suspension-bridge crossings, some several hundred metres long were great! We were lucky to have clear visibility and sunshine nearly every day as we progressed ever higher amid awe-inspiring scenery, expertly led by our leader Valerie Parkinson, and Nepalese guide Saroje. Our yakman Nawang took care of all our luggage except for our light daysacks. We gazed up at Lhotse, Ama Dablam, Macalu, Pumori, to name but a few peaks. From various vantage points including the aptly named Everest View Hotel, we had excellent views of Everest with the South Summit and South Col. We experienced at first hand the logistical marvel of how everything is transported up here; by yak, mule, dzo or porter. Bird-life included Vultures and Golden Eagles soaring overhead, plus Tibetan Snow birds that took a fancy to my lemon drizzle cake on Kala Patthar during our final acclimatisation trek. After taking in the Kumbhu Glacier, we reached Gorak Shep before the final push to Everest Base Camp itself. Unlike most other treks, we had ample time at Base Camp rock before the short walk to one of the expedition camps where we stayed overnight, amongst an array of camps looking like something out of a Bond movie. We witnessed a massive avalanche, and spent time on the ice shelf, truly surreal amongst the surrounding peaks. Overall, it was tough but an utterly amazing experience, in the competent hands of our leader Valerie, a lifetime goal achieved.

Excellent

I had a great experience overall and I’m thankful for such a great tour! I enjoyed the solo-ish group makeup and am excited to see what other solo-ish trips will come out.

Kathmandu - Tour Highlights and Travel Tips

 

Tour Highlights

  • Located on the Bagmati River, some 5 km south-east of the city center, Pashupatinath Temple is a Hindu temple dedicated to God Shiva. It is one of the holiest sights in the entire country and attracts many pilgrims from South Asia especially during Shivaratri, an annual Hindu festival that celebrates Shiva. 
  • Kathmandu Durbar Square is the heart of the Nepalese capital. This colorful plaza is home to several significant sights, including the Living Goddess Kumari House, Taleju Temple and Bhairab Temple. The Durbar Square suffered massively during the April 2015 earthquake and is currently undergoing renovation. 
  • Boudhanath Stupa lies 5 km north of Kathmandu city center. The massive 5th Century Stupa is one of the most important pilgrimage sites for both Hindus and Buddhists in Nepal. 
  • Swayambhunath Stupa is another majestic sacred structure which overlooks the city from a tall hilltop. At the so-called site of “Sublime Trees”, you will find lush vegetation and an intriguing blend of Buddhist and Hindu imagery.

Travel Tips

  • Air in Kathmandu is notoriously dry, dusty and polluted, especially during the dry season (October to May). If you find yourself experiencing respiratory difficulties, make sure to wear a face mask whenever you go outside.
  • Other than getting around on foot, the most convenient methods of transport in Kathmandu are rickshaws and taxis. Most tourist areas are serviced by rickshaws, while taxis are found all across the city. Don't be shy to haggle with the cab drivers. 
  • In order to avoid water borne diseases, it is advised not to drink tap water while in Kathmandu. Make sure to always equip yourself with plenty of water bottles, especially if you plan on spending prolonged periods of time trekking or sightseeing. It’s also best to avoid consuming ice, salads and pre-cut fruit in restaurants.
  • If you are in Kathmandu for a short time, do consider going for short hikes around Nagarkot and Shivapuri Nagarjun National Park areas.
