For adventure seekers ready to test their limits, the "Everest Base Camp Trek & Island Peak Climb" is the ultimate Himalayan challenge. This 19-day guided tour for young adults takes you from Kathmandu via Lukla into the heart of the Khumbu, trekking through iconic villages like Namche Bazaar and Lobuche before reaching Everest Base Camp at 5,364 meters.
The journey continues to Island Peak (Imja Tse), standing tall at 6,160 meters, offering a non-technical yet physically demanding climb suitable for both novices and seasoned trekkers. With built-in acclimatization days, contingency planning, and a training program, safety and comfort are prioritized throughout. Stand atop Island Peak for panoramic views of some of the world’s highest mountains before descending through picturesque Pangboche and back to civilization.
What makes this tour stand out is the rare opportunity to combine a classic base camp trek with a real Himalayan summit—an accomplishment that few travelers can claim. If you’re searching for a trip that balances adventure, preparation, and unbeatable views, this is your summit-to-remember.
The trek & climb to Island Peak summit was very well organised. Everyone was helpful and friendly. This was the experience of a lifetime! Shout out to Anil, Chandra, Kamal, Krishna and Khum! Super team 💪
We booked the Island peak via EBC trek with this local tour operator and it was amazing. Our guide Megendra Giri was very helpful and responsive. He send us the information very quick!
From the very beginning of our planning stages to the summit of Island Peak, my experience was nothing short of spectacular. The pre-trip communication was a breeze - the tour organizing team was incredibly responsive and informative, ensuring all my questions were answered promptly and thoroughly. Once the adventure began, the organization and logistics were impeccable. The travel arrangements, accommodations, and meals not only met but exceeded my expectations. Everything was well-planned, allowing me to focus entirely on the experience without any logistical worries. The heart of this journey was undeniably the guides and support staff. Their knowledge of the terrain and local insights enriched the trek immensely. More than that, their kindness, helpfulness, and genuine friendliness made a significant impact. It was clear they were not just professionals but also passionate about what they do, and that passion was contagious. The highlight of the trip was, of course, the climb itself. Trekking to Everest Base Camp (EBC) and scaling Island Peak was an exhilarating and awe-inspiring experience. The beauty of the Himalayas is unparalleled, and the sense of accomplishment upon reaching the peak was indescribable. It was challenging, no doubt, but with the expert guidance and encouragement of our guides, it was an achievable and thrilling adventure. Overall, my satisfaction with this tour company was through the roof. I would not only recommend them but urge anyone considering a climbing expedition in Nepal to go with this exceptional team. Their professionalism, combined with a warm, personal touch, made this journey unforgettable. If you're seeking an adventure that's well-organized, safe, and filled with moments of awe and wonder, go with them.
answered all questions promptly and in detail. From the moment I arrived at Kathmandu airport I was promptly met and taken to hotel where Kris met with me and reviewed itinerary for next few weeks. Travel arrangements to Lukla had to be changed because of government shutdown of Kathmandu airport and Kris took care of all changes. Upon my arrival at Lukla I was met by my guide Pembra and porter and quickly given orientation and set off on trek. Over next two weeks my guide Pembra made sure all my needs were attended to and he made sure that the pace was appropriate for terrain and my condition. Although we were ultimately unable to summit because of weather the entire experience was was incredible and views spectacular. Cannot say enough about how well I was taken care of and the care they took to ensure I had a positive and successful experience. Based on my experience I would highly recommend this local travel expert and Kris for any future trekking experience in Nepal.
Travelled during off peak season, July is their monsoon period so there aren’t many tourist around. Did get some good views along the way, weather is clear most of the time in the morning & the clouds set in during the afternoons & rains most of the times in the evening. As it was off peak season, many places were closed as well. However, I enjoyed the peace & tranquility during the trek without many people around and thought it was a good trade off for the weather. Signed up for Island Peak and was an unsuccessful attempt due to the weather & safety reasons. And won’t recommend others for a technical ascend during the off peak season. Had to add extra days during the trip incase of bad weather. Fortunately for me, the weather did not affect me & Krishna helped me to manage the remaining days left in Kathmandu to tour around the area and my accommodations.
I fully enjoyed my tour with Chris' company. Everyone was very friendly and super flexible, when I had wishes that were not on my "standard" booking. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to experience an exceptional once in a lifetime adventure!
I highly recommend this, the services where perfect , the staff , the hotel , the guide for the trek , the food , everything was more than expected, thank you!!!!! Namaste!!!
An amazing part of the world. You wont be disappointed if you are well prepared and organised.
One of the best trip of my life... View is awesome... And good scenary... Too good
Nepal is a varied and interesting country with magnificent landscapes, interesting cultures and wonderful people. We had 15 days walking trip in Nepal EVEREST BASE CAMP. I strongly recommend our guide Chris Chhetri and his team to experience the best trip. Good companies -fun games at nights despite of tiredness, helpful and well equipped with knowledge of the each place. They even cooked our meal for us. We had a wonderful holiday - no bad bits - no complaints. We really recommend the tour operator. We award this holiday 41/2 - 5 stars!
At the beginning i was a afraid, but one day after i realize that i was in good hands. They are totally honest and they know what they are doing !! I strongly recommend it.
That was back in 2011 and my first trekking experience. Together with my friends and our dear guide Chris Chhetri we reached Poon Hill (3 210 m). Since it was my first time in mountains, it was great to face challenges with the guide who knows every step of the trek and motivates you to see more here. Our reward - amazing beauty of Himalayas! Thank you!
The country is amazing, the scenery breathtaking and warm people in the Himalayas is always a plus! Your experience is somehow attached to the people you meet on a trip and, in my experience, Chris makes it cool and fun specially when our strengths tend to leave us! Great days with my brother from another mother!
Chris (and your company) is a great guide and with a lot of experience, I did several trekkings with groups of my company Fotoadrenalina in Nepal and it always went well, with professionalism, but always stayed good friendships with the people of my groups. I advise 100%.
This local operator is good and excellent tour guide too!!!nice experience and worth it
This was an incredible experience to say the least, every day I was happy that I decided to book with a company and have a guide. This company was amazing and had everything arranged for me. The guide was knowledgeable and very helpful and friendly. I felt as though I was in good hands and wouldnt hesitate to book again.
It is really great to try it at ex time in your life ,I changed a lot after took trekking in Nepal , I cherish more and will love my life more and more

C. TREKKING NOVEMBER 2018
The Director of this tour agency Krushna Bahadur Subedi best man. Guide,s & staff fantastic .
This is the first time weve booked a tour like this. We were complete novices when it comes to trekking and when it comes to Nepali customs. We were greeted at the airport by our taxi ride even though our flight was delayed and taken straight to the tour companys office. The manager, Khum, had informed us that there had recently been bad weather and that it may be best to take a helicopter at an extra cost in order to complete the EBC tour. We initially thought this was just a money making exercise and so ignored his advice, but when the flight was cancelled the following day, the tour company were very helpful in arranging the earliest possible helicopter. We had already met our guide Guruu and even though it meant paying for a helicopter for him too, we immediately liked him so much that it was an easy choice for us. Guruu and our porter Dandi ensured that we made it to EBC even though this meant that they had to walk harder and faster than usual. They did all this with smiles on their faces and always ensured that we were well looked after before thinking of themselves. It is an amazing experience full of wonderful sights and beautiful people and I would not have wanted to have this experience without Guruu and Dandi. I would recommend them to any of my friends or family who embark on this trek. The trek itself, amazing! It still hasnt sunk in how beautiful this place is and how weve been immersed in such an inconic setting. Bucket list material.
