Thankyou to our great team for making our trip a success: Sanjay Lama Ang Dawa Sherpa (cook) Yem Rai (Sherpa Guide) Chandra Rai (Kitchen Hand) Bijay Magar (Porter) Nara Raj Magar (Porter) Thankyou for taking care of us, feeding us and getting us to AMA Dablam Base Camp and back.
What an amazing hike. Perfect views with a super guide. We loved it all. Great to do as a family.
My wife and I did the Ama Dablam base camp tour and we absolutely loved it. We had great weather, very comfortable accommodation and the pace set by our guides was very manageable. The food was varied and of very good standards and never shortage of tea and boiled water. The team of guides, porters and cooks could not do enough to make feels safe, comfortable and ready for the next walk. Our leader yangji was incredible; she is very knowledgeable of the region, history, culture, etc and always happy to share that knowledge with the group. She is very caring, supportive and strong as a leader. After having bad weather for our flights out of Lukla, Yangji and the WE team in Kathmandu made all possible efforts to help us get back to Kathmandu safely by helicopter flight. She even managed to get me a birthday cake at the base camp; I will never forget this amazing experience. Thank you so much.
What an amazing trip. Our head guide Sanjay was respectful, diligent, organised, clear and concise with instructions, always alert for dangers and generally making sure we could enjoy the amazing country of Nepal and everything it had to offer. The other guides were also amazing, hard working and looking after us at every turn. I could not fault them and the extreme care they took of all the girls even when things weren’t perfect. I myself had the best time and due to the choice of guides, porters, chefs ( what amazing, delicious and safe food we had OMG) and hostel/hotel staff I was looked after better than I could of ever imagined . Thanks They deserve so much. I am so grateful to everyone.
In December our family of 5 (3 teenage boys) completed the Ama Dablam Basecamp trek. It was a wonderful experience for all of us. The trek itself was challenging but very achievable. Our guide Yanji was the most lovely Sherpa lady who shared so many personal stories, experiences, and laughs. We were so lucky to visit her village and see where she grew up. Together with Birbal and his team of porters and cooks, they looked after us and made sure we had the best possible experience.
