Gokyo and Everest Base Camp trek Tours in November 2026

My daughter and I went on this trek in October/November as a private trek. As a result of illness at Gokyo, we had to change our plans, so missed out on Cho La, Everest Base Camp and Kala Patthar. However, the trek to and from Gokyo and around Gokyo was absolutely wonderful. The scenery was beyond description and the weather was perfect. Our guide, Prakash, was excellent; when we had to alter the trip, he managed it supremely well, so although we had to go back the same way, the experience was different and marvellous. The teahouses that were used were all perfectly fine and Prakash managed to get really good deals. Our porter, Umiss (apologies if not spelt correctly), was unfailingly cheerful and came on some of the side trips with us when he was not carrying the load. It is a demanding trek but the rewards are fantastic; the views of the Everest Massif from Gokyo Ri and the 5th lake are stupendous. The only downside was the chaos at Lukla Airport on the way back, but Prakash managed that as best as he could. I would unhesitatingly trek with this company again.

We did this trek on October. The itinerary was well managed and the accommodation and food suited our needs perfectly. Thank you for an amazing experience! Excellent service. Exceeded my expectations. With the help our guide Lok Tamu, who was really fun and amazing, we had a wonderful and memorable trek from the moment we landed in Kathmandu all the way to EBC, Chola Pass and Gokyo and back. He is very helpful in taking photo and video. I dont think it would have been possible without the help of him. Lok is a highly qualified guide. He is very knowledgeable about the local conditions, the local people and the culture. I would highly recommend this local travel specialist and our guide Lok Tamu to anyone who wants to trek in Nepal.

We had an amazing trip and this travel agency is a great company to work with. November was the right time to go to Nepal. Sitting underneath the Himalayan giants was incredible. The trails are really tough. They are steep and beat up. We only had 6 of the original 10 that made the whole trek. AMS and people who just didn't take training seriously. This is a HARD hike! Prepare and you will be fine if you don't you will get an expensive helicopter ride out. Recommend going EBC then Cho La. It was nice to have fewer people on the trail at the end and the pull up the western side of Cho La seems horrible. I was glad to be heading down. Food is good but you may want to supplement protein after Namche.

I booked the Everest Base Camp - Cho-La Pass - Gokyo tour during November, and was very impressed with the professionalism and kindness of all the people I met who work at this tour agency. Chhattra is the owner of the business and is a very professional man, who gives thorough details of what to expect while trekking in the Himalaya. He was able to answer all my questions, and responded to all inquiries promptly, which made planning for this trip very easy. He gives excellent recommendations in regard to purchasing gear prior to trekking, if thats what you need. He also leant me a down jacket, sleeping bag, trekking poles and duffle bag which was very kind and VERY helpful for the cold weather! Our guide for the trek was Basu, and he was absolutely wonderful; very friendly, happy, kind, caring and very VERY knowledgeable about the mountains and surrounding Khumbu region. He is also a very patient and understanding man; I am not a fast walker, especially while hiking uphill at high altitude, and he happily stayed with me while the others in the group went on ahead. Unfortunately I got quite sick during the trek and wasnt able to complete the full itinerary. Basu was very understanding, and sent me off down the mountain to recover with one of our porters/assistant guide, Dilip, to make sure I was safe, and he adjusted my itinerary to maximise the time I had left while trekking to Mongla, where we met up for the remainder of the trek. He made sure that I was looked after well, and had everything that I needed to get better. Dilip was wonderful too; he is very kind and caring, and made sure that I had everything I needed and was happy after I had to spilt from the rest of the group due to feeling too unwell to continue with the heavier trekking. In another unfortunate turn of events, my bag accidentally got switched with someone elses when I split from the rest of the group, and I only realised once we arrived in Periche. I was happy to just wait until we met up with the rest of the group again, but Dilip went out of his way to go and switch my bag back at Thukla - a 2.5hr round trip, in the cold. Needless to say, I couldnt thank him enough. The kindness, understanding and patience I was shown by Basu and Dilip will never be forgotten. The porters are very helpful, friendly and kind; we definitely wouldnt have been able to do the trek without them! The loads they carry are huge, and they do it with a smile on their faces... Im still in awe of the weight that they carry while still being able to run up and down the mountain! Incredible! While the trek didnt pan out exactly as Id hoped, since I missed out on the Cho-La pass and Gokyo lakes due to becoming unwell, the operator team made sure that my trek was thoroughly enjoyable and memorable. I am immeasurably grateful to Chhattra, Basu and Dilip for making sure I was safe and happy during my two weeks in the Himalaya. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend them to anyone interested in booking a trek through Nepal!

Varem fer el treking 3 amics, l'experiencia va ser molt bona tan pel lloc, paissatges increibles... com pel guia que ens va acompanyar en Harry i pels porters especialment pel Daba, van ser mol amables en tot moment. Totalment aconsellable

We booked an Everest/Gokyo Lake trek with this tour operator and could not have been more pleased. All communication with Chris and Khum, the owners of the tour company, were very easy through email and every question we had was answered promptly. Even during our trek, when we needed assistance, Chris was always there for us. We ran into issues with our flight to Lukla (airport had been closed for days) and we inquired if there was any chance to hire a helicopter to fly us to Lukla, so we could start our trek. Within two hours we were on board a helicopter and on our way (of course we paid for this flight out of our own pockets). Trekking in the Himalayas went off without a hitch and we had a wonderful time. Before and after our trek, the tour company organized city tours of Kathmandu for us. We always had very knowledgeable guides who educated us in Nepalese culture and religion (we highly recommend Shankar Bhattarai as your city guide, you can email him at expertnepaltourguide@gmail.com). Chris even met us for breakfast a couple of times at our hotel in Kathmandu, just to say hello. We highly recommend this tour company for all your Himalaya adventures.
