Breathtaking Everest Base Camp and 3 High Passes trek

We had a wonderful trek to the Everest Base Camp and 3 passes. Kris organized everything professionally and perfectly, all accommodation and domestic flights were booked and included into the trip price. Our guide - Lakpa gave us a breathtaking tour in the Everest region, providing us with interesting information during the trek and serving professional help and advice. I really recommend traveling with this tour operator.

Amazing experience!

I highly recommend this local tour operator! We took 18 days trek to Everest Base Camp and 3 High Passes in November and the experience was just amazing. We had everything professionally organized by Chris: transportation (including flight to Lukla), food and lodging, permits, you name it... The contact with the company was always quick and easy, Chris was super helpful and everything went smoothly. We were even provided with really good and warm sleeping bags and jackets! Our guide Lakpa was really experienced and knowledgeable, he showed us some of the most incredible places we've ever seen, helped us through all the though parts of the trail and was always there to answer questions and offer advice. We felt really well taken care for every step of the way. We're already planning our next trek in Nepal and we'll most definitely come back to Nepal.

Great trip with Sumba Sherpa

Sumba was a great guide! He was friendly, knowledge and easy to work with. He has a lot of experience and it shows! I’m grateful I was able to have him as my guide!

Fantastic experience in Nepal

It's been my 5th trek in Nepal with this local travel specialist and I cannot say enough how Khum, Krisna and their teams have been very professional all the way through, from the conception of each trek to small details that make a big difference along the journey. My last trek in Mera peak and Everest region was extraordinary and my guide and porter did everything to make this strenuous trek as pleasant and memorable as possible. I highly recommend booking your Nepal next trip with Kris and Khum !
