We were a pair, that just finished the Gokyo trip. The experience was amazing, and the local operator (Dipak, our guide Bhanu, and all others that helped) did a great job. My girlfriend was worried by altitude sickness, and we had a slow and steady trek, and in the end, we both managed to "climb" to the 5360 m high Gokyo Ri! We are very grateful to our local tour operator for this experience.
The weather was amazing (I really recommend going in mid October), and so were the views of course! The culture, nature, food and overall exercise you will do on this trek are amazing. Moreover, after Namche Bazar, it becomes much less crowded (due to the fact, that hundreds go to see Everest Base Camp), and we really wanted to avoid the crowds. The Gokyo valley is peaceful, serene, and offers breathtaking views on Cho Oyu troughout the trek, and on Sagarmatha (Everest) on several occasions (basically, everytime you "climb" a bit higher).

Mr. Dipak ensures a very personal approach and contact, constantly monitors everything and together with his employees he makes sure everything is arranged quickly and qualitatively!
An added value that the organization consists entirely of its own people from there and that, for example, they do not exploit the carriers! A fair reliable local organization that provides a very qualitative and personal service!
organizational: completely successful!
The communication in advance, pick me up at the airport and EVERYTHING in between until the drop me back at the airport for the return trip: everything was arranged!
By banal throat infection after the peak ascent yet with heli to hospital ... where people from the local tour operator were there to assist me, Dipak came to visit me personally and check if everything went well ... 3 days later I was in Pokhara enjoy (with antibiotics)! Good insurance is extremely important! Hint: European assistance 'world sport'.
The trekking & Peak climb: A dream trip that has come true !!
The guide (Gyeljan) and the wearer (Nuri) did everything to make it an unforgettable journey; two fanatic people! If necessary, adjustments could be made on site at all times.
Bungee and Pokhara: completely successful!
The few extra days planned with Dipak on site.
In Pokhara I was welcomed and dropped off at a very pleasant hotel close to Phewa Lake.

Gokyo Renjo La Pass Trekking takes you from the mainstream trekking trail and gives you an exclusive experience of trekking off the beaten path in the Everest region. Be amazed by the spectacular views of the snowy mountains and vast landscapes, the unparalleled culture and traditions, and the diverse flora and fauna of the Gokyo Valley. Explore the delightful turquoise lakes nestled in the silver mountains and Gokyo village perched on the bank of one of those lakes.
Exploring the unique blend of Nepalese and Tibetan Buddhism and the culture, traditions, and lifestyles of the aboriginal Sherpa people are other highlights of the trek apart from the marvelous views and natural diversity.
Begin with a mountain flight to Lukla and explore Chauri kharka, Phakding, and Namche Bazaar villages. Stay for acclimatization in the historical trading hub of Namche. Pass through the towns of Dole and Machhermo before Gokyo leads you to the Gokyo Ri, the peak with extraordinary scenery. Soak up the panoramic view of mountains including Mt. Everest (8848m), Lhotse (8516m), Cho-Oyu (8201m), Makalu (8585m), Ama Dablam (6812m), Thame Peak and others. You can also see the Ngozomba Glacier, the largest glacier in the Himalayas, and the unique Gokyo village. Climb to the challenging Renjo La Pass (5345m), another viewpoint in the trail which provides yet another surreal scenery of the Himalayas to the trekkers as a reward for their strenuous trekking in the region. After exploring the area, we retrace our path, head for Thame, trek to Lukla, and fly back to Kathmandu.
On the trek, you may glimpse rare species such as musk deer, wild mountain goat, snow leopard, and hawk. Locals believe in the existence of the infamous Yeti as well. You may witness it as well; you never know!
Gokyo Renjo La Pass trekking is full of diversity; from monasteries clad with prayer flags and scribbles to the precarious suspension bridges, and from the majestic Himalayas to the cultural heritages of local inhabitants, you get to experience many things in one single trek. Experience our team's professional service, exceptional hospitality, and the warmth of the ever-smiling locals. Discover yourself in this wonder world in a hassle-free and entertaining trekking expedition in the mountains of Nepal.
Travel to one of the most secluded valleys in the Himalayas during this 18-day, guided tour. A slice of paradise lodged between mountains, the Tsum Valley was opened to trekkers only recently and hardly sees foreigners even now. We will drive you from Kathmandu to Soti Khola after taking you on a sightseeing tour of Kathmandu.
Trek through the lower-lying areas of Gorkha district, past Machha Khola, Jagat, and Lakuwa to reach Chumling, your first stop in the Tsum Valley, which derives its name from the Tibetan “Beyul Kyimolung” which means "the Valley of Happiness".
Explore this beautiful, untouched region, see the magnificent Ganesh Himal and Mount Manaslu, and visit famous local monasteries like Mu Gompa and Rachen Gompa. Observe the life of the villagers whose primary occupation is cattle herding. Also take a trip to the cave where the famous Tibetan mystic Milarepa is said to have meditated before it is time to start your downhill journey to Soti Khola, following the gurgling Budhi Gandaki River.
The route to the valley diverts from the main Manaslu trail midway through the journey. This trek is ideal for those who want to visit one of the least explored areas in the Himalayas where life seems to be frozen in time and Buddhism binds the people together and guides their everyday activities.
We will drive you back to your hotel in Kathmandu after the trek is over. For more details, please go through the itinerary below.
