Nepal Budget Tour Reviews

Best EBC Experience
5 - Excellent
  • Sana Boutros
“I loved every minute of my 11 day EBC trek. The whole experience was well thought out from being picked up from the airport, meeting Khum, the company owner, receiving a briefing and being able to ask any questions. Our tour guide, Raz, was very supportive, attentive and went out of his way to make sure we had the best and smoothest experience possible. He was very patient with us when we were exhausted and was key to us reaching Everest base Camp healthy and in good spirits. Our porter, Teelak, never failed to greet us with a smile. I will be forever grateful for the countless memories this exceptional team has given me. Thank you!!”
Awesome communication, flexibility, and trekking experience with Raju
5 - Excellent
  • Eric Hill
“Our group of three had a wonderful experience despite some weather difficulties. Our guide, Raju, did an amazing job leading us and his company worked the logistical angles well to ultimately get us to Everest Base Camp. It was an incredible experience and great working with this company that I recommend wholeheartedly!”
8 day trek to Jomsom/Muktinath
5 - Excellent
  • Anonymous
“We went on a 8 day trek to Jomsom/Muktinath. This trek has lost its popularity over the years because of the jeep road, making it easy to cover the distance by car. But that made the experience less touristic and more authentic for us. With on average 6 hours of hiking every day, the views of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri (2 of the 10 highest mountains in the world) were stunning. The nature was blooming: Nepal's national flower Rhododendron was flowering in a beautiful dark red color, and we ate delicious, freshly picked Nepali oranges on the way. The culture was most interesting: some of the architecture of the old villages we passed through made you feel like you were going back in time. Most of the people still work by hand. We saw women next to the road smashing large rocks into smaller ones using a hammer! Special thanks to our guide Dev, who is very knowledgeable and caring, and porter/hero Nema, who saved my girlfriends hat which fell into a canyon after a strong wind caught it. We enjoyed every minute with them!”
