Gokyo Lake and Everest Base Camp + Cho La Pass

I had a beautiful experience during 16 days in Kathmandu and trekking to EBC with this local travel specialist. Since the pickup at airport, support with hotel , gear shopping’s. My guide Kumar was also excellent and very professional, I couldn’t made it successfully without him and all support provided. Very thanks to Mr Khum which was confident and experienced making me feel safety and well supported by his team. I really recommend them and hopefully will see you soon. Namaste

I have just returned from Nepal and a trek from Lukla to EBC and Gokyo Lake with 9 friends in our 50's and 60's. We were introduced to this local travel specialist by my sister, who trekked with them in Annapurna 4 years ago. We found them excellent, very responsive to us before the trip and very willing to ensure that we had a really unique and great experience of Nepal and its people on the trip. When problems were encountered, as they always are on these trips, Khum Subedi and his team were very good at responding and always offered solutions and worked with us to react. I would love to work with them again and cannot recommend the company highly enough.

My daughter and I went on this trek in October/November as a private trek. As a result of illness at Gokyo, we had to change our plans, so missed out on Cho La, Everest Base Camp and Kala Patthar. However, the trek to and from Gokyo and around Gokyo was absolutely wonderful. The scenery was beyond description and the weather was perfect. Our guide, Prakash, was excellent; when we had to alter the trip, he managed it supremely well, so although we had to go back the same way, the experience was different and marvellous. The teahouses that were used were all perfectly fine and Prakash managed to get really good deals. Our porter, Umiss (apologies if not spelt correctly), was unfailingly cheerful and came on some of the side trips with us when he was not carrying the load. It is a demanding trek but the rewards are fantastic; the views of the Everest Massif from Gokyo Ri and the 5th lake are stupendous. The only downside was the chaos at Lukla Airport on the way back, but Prakash managed that as best as he could. I would unhesitatingly trek with this company again.

Would recommend. We had a helpful trip, and it couldn’t have been any better. Thankyou

We booked an Everest/Gokyo Lake trek with this tour operator and could not have been more pleased. All communication with Chris and Khum, the owners of the tour company, were very easy through email and every question we had was answered promptly. Even during our trek, when we needed assistance, Chris was always there for us. We ran into issues with our flight to Lukla (airport had been closed for days) and we inquired if there was any chance to hire a helicopter to fly us to Lukla, so we could start our trek. Within two hours we were on board a helicopter and on our way (of course we paid for this flight out of our own pockets). Trekking in the Himalayas went off without a hitch and we had a wonderful time. Before and after our trek, the tour company organized city tours of Kathmandu for us. We always had very knowledgeable guides who educated us in Nepalese culture and religion (we highly recommend Shankar Bhattarai as your city guide, you can email him at expertnepaltourguide@gmail.com). Chris even met us for breakfast a couple of times at our hotel in Kathmandu, just to say hello. We highly recommend this tour company for all your Himalaya adventures.
