Above and beyond Expectations: Everest Base Camp Trek
Rating:
Excellent from start to finish. A seamless experience from arrival to departure. Dipendra was excellent on his communication. He always replied very promptly and with good information. We were always looked after exceptionally well whether in Kathmandu, on the trail or in the tea houses. Our main guide Rajan was so caring and lovely. He always had our best interests at heart. A bit like a mother hen looking after her brood. It was very tough at times, and very cold at nights , some of us suffered at times but with patience and care from Rajan and his team of fellow guide and three porters who were all great, we made it to Everest base camp. Now it was my birthday the day we got to EBC, Rajan had arranged a birthday cake with candles and carried it for two days from the last bakery, what an amazing gesture. Above and beyond the call of duty. A big thank you to all the team. If you want to trek in the Himalayas, look no further these are THE guys to go with.

Outstanding EBC trek with an excellent company
Rating:
My husband and I just returned from successfully trekking the EBC with our very knowledgeable guide, Shankar! We trusted his judgment and expertise 100%! His knowledge of the trek itself, history of the region, the mountain peaks and elevations were invaluable. Being that we were older trekkers, we felt well cared for and Shankar always was looking out for us. Shankar, with his experience and relationships with tea house owners, we always had great accommodations in the height of the busy season. I also want to acknowledge the managing director, Dipendra for great communication, his flexibility, his troubleshooting skills, etc, etc. He has a hands on approach to guaranteeing a great trekking experience for you! He was awesome and trustworthy to work with! I also want to give Ramas, our awesome porter a shout out! . He was also trustworthy and very reliable! Couldn’t have done it without him. I highly recommend this trekking company 100% to ensure a great trekking experience for you! You will not be disappointed!

Everest base Camp September/October 2018
Rating:
Professional planned trip. 2 Guides and 2 Porter with excellent skills. The high over 5000 m was for our group a big challenge. We didn’t prepare for this high very well. Next time it would be better book a longer time with more short distances. At the end: well done and thanks for all and Dipendra!

One of the most rewarding experiences of my life!
Rating:
I recently did the 14 day Everest base camp trek in July 2018 with my friend. Everything ran super smooth from the moment we were picked up from the airport to when it was time to say our goodbyes. Our guide was Rajan who spoke English really well and understood everything we asked of him. He was compassionate and knowledgeable as well as friendly. Our Porter was KK, he was always smiling even though we were certain our bags were no light load and his English was exceptional also. Finally Dipendra who organised not only our EBC trek but also organised a 6 day motorbike tour for us after our trek at a great price. As far as the trek was concerned all I can say is this is a MUST DO bucket list item. The food was authentic and plentiful, the scenery was beautiful and constantly changing and the accommodation was comfortable and cozy. I have found my new favorite country!
