They did a fantastic job.

I am glad to say that I did the Dolpo after a few friends recommended me. Booking with the operator was an easy process and they replied to all my queries on email instantly. I didn't know what to do and when they suggested that I do this trek based on my interest, I blindly trusted them on this tour. And I should say, I made no mistake with that. My guide was informative and responsive to all my needs and wellness. Everything went beyond my expectation right from the moment I was given a warm welcome in the airport until the time I got back home. Words fall short when I have to thank them for all the hospitality I was provided. Thank you team out there. I'll be back soon for a similar trek in future.

Our next trip will be with you guys

Four of us planned for the Everest base camp hike and we ended up choosing Himalayan Glacier to be our mountain guide. We had memories that will always remain close to our hearts. Comfortable night stays and lovely food all over and undoubtedly Shanker, the most charming, knowledgeable and funny guy ever. We will definitely book another trip in the Himalayas with you guys!

Best ever trip of my lifetime

I wanted to tick off Everest Base Camp Trek from my bucket list before my 32th birthday. And I did it just a day before I turned 32. Really thankful to Himalayan Glacier for arranging a birthday cake even in the mountains. Couldn't thank you guys enough. I will be coming back soon.

25th year of marriage on EBC

My husband and I planned Everest Base Camp trek for our anniversary. We wanted to mark our 25th year of marriage on the foothills of the world's highest mountain. Of course, we couldn't cut our cake at the altitude of 5,000 meters but being present there together was more than enough. We were worried that we might not make it on the expected day, but Himalayan Glacier did its magic. Thank you for pulling out strings to make this happen.
