Awesome trek to ABC
5 - Excellent
  • Nancy Rollason
“I did the Annapurna base camp trek solo as a first trek. I had an excellent experience— communication beforehand was very clear and all my questions answered. Arrangements went smoothly from airport pick up to hotel and transport. I felt safe and well supported as a single woman. I was ill on the first day and both owner and guide were very caring. My guide, Sumba was lovely—he looked after me every step of the way and took care of all the practicalities. Also the porter Kiran. I was very grateful to him for carrying my bag all the way up to base camp! I was able to realise my dream and reach the base camp and it would not have been possible without them.”
Extraordinary adventure

“This was an amazing trip made possible by extraordinary guides and drivers. We were met by the lovely Asmita who went to extra mile to prepare us for our trip, and to be sure we had all we needed. She could not be more charming and helpful. On day one, we were driven to the border, very expertly by Raju accompanied by Kersang. We needed an expert as the roads were very windy and not in good condition but it was exciting and we could take in the wonderful scenery and the interesting villages that we passed. After we crossed, the border which took some time we were met by Tarkye our guide and Cedun our driver. Tarkye was a very mature calm guide, solicitous knowledgeable and very caring. Cedun our driver was also very considerate and helpful which we as a group needed as many of us had not fully anticipated the effects of the high altitude. However, we were shepherded in an extraordinary manner through magnificent mountainous terrain, and lake filled scenery seeing yaks and other animals on the way. The monasteries were beautiful and Tarkye could answer any questions we had. This unique and extraordinary trip delivered exactly what it promised. There was a great deal of driving which could be tiring but this was specified up front. Overall, this was an amazing trip, but it was more physically demanding than anticipated because of the altitude and also being in a relatively small enclosed vehicle carrying 12 people with no space in between each person if one person gets sick it spreads through the group has happened for us. Nevertheless this tour is a once in a lifetime experience in a country as yet relatively undiscovered by western tourists. This is an exemplary company that I highly recommend. Many thanks!”
Mt Everest Base Camp Hike
5 - Excellent
  • Praneshkumar Pandian
“We were a team of 4 did EBC hike in Apr 2024. Krishna & his team did an excellent job in co-ordinating the whole trip. The communication was intact as we agreed upon from start to finish. There were few interruptions while on our journey due to weather, but Krishna acted promptly upon the situation, made alternations for us to continue without delay. Chandra the sherpa and two porters were awesome. They never rushed us, made us comfortable for a successful trip. Their hospitality exceeded my expectation. I would definitely come back for other mountains and it will be through this travel operator At last we all became a good friends. Thank You Krishna/Chandra for making this trip happen. Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ!!”
