Everest Base Camp - 3 High Passes Trek

Great experience with Khum ji in coordinating the trek,travel in Kathmandu and to Lukla and was lucky to have the best porter/guide Dendi who twice summitted Everest and provided all the help and know about the area. Although lost a few days for not a seat on plane to Lukla, it was a great experience overall.

In 2017 I walked the 3 passes trek. The guide was experienced, friendly and professional.

During the second half of September 2023 I successfully did the 3-pass trek with this local travel specialist. Communication was fluid since the beginning with Kum resolving any doubt I had before the trek. After some issues with the airport pickup, I finally got to Lukla where the adventure began. The trek was lovely and my guide Kumar did a great job managing everything smoothly. He had always a positive attitude and was open to adapt the planning to my needs diligently. After the trek, the agency offered assistance on my last days in the Kathmandu valley and they finally left me at the airport to farewell.

Planning: I scheduled my trek with this tour company in mid-September 2019. The plan was to beat the main portion of peak season. I knew that meant pushing back closer to Nepals rainy season. Upon reaching Kathmandu, the airport in Lukla was closed due to heavy cloud & fog. I had extra days in my schedule and used them up waiting for the airport to reopen. Which did not happen in time for me to continue with my original plan. Throughout this process Mr. Krishna was very understanding and helpful in explaining options and alternatives, so I could make the best choice for a substitute itinerary. Execution: From that point on I cannot speak more highly of how my trek went. My Guide (Nuri) & porter (Gopal) were always taking care of me and ensuring my safety. As we grew to know one another it made the trip even more pleasurable. I learned many things, not only about the beautiful landscapes I was seeing, but about the culture and peoples of Nepal. My sincere thankfulness & Gratitude to Nuri & Gopal In Closing: Based on my own personal experience with this tour company, I would not hesitate to recommend them as a great, friendly, and honest, guide service. One last note: If you are considering a trek in Nepal, understand that being flexible to change can make a huge difference. In my case it meant the difference in between Wonderful or mediocre, I chose wonderful. You see the world not as it is, but as you are. Have a great trek. Timmy
