An Awesome Adventure to Everest Base Camp Trek
It was an amazing experience going up to the Everest Base Camp with Scenic Nepal. This was our 2nd adventure with Scenic Nepal, having gone up to the Annapurna Base Camp with them just a few months prior to this. So when we decided to head to EBC, there was no doubt who we would be getting in touch with. We were taken care of from the moment we touched down at the Kathmandu airport up till our flight home.We were well equipped for the hike thanks to the tips and advice from the Scenic Nepal team on what to get and how to prepare. Once we started off our awesome adventure, we would be briefed again each morning on what to expect that day. Throughout the journey they made sure each and every one of us in the group were doing okay and made the necessary adjustments to the pace or route taken, when one of us were not doing too well. In fact, a group member fell quite ill, but they made sure someone was with him the entire time even when he had to turn back while the rest of us continued.Anyone would be worried, at least a little bit, when hiking at such high altitudes, but knowing we had such an experienced, understanding and responsible team guiding us, put our minds at ease and allowed us to just enjoy the beautiful trails and sceneries. They also make the trip all the more fun, cracking jokes to make us laugh, as we teased each other, got to know one another better, and bonded.I definitely look forward to our next expedition with Scenic Nepal.
Melissa Lim, MalaysiaEverest Base Camp Trek VIA Chola Pass and Gokyo Valley
A 14 days trek; 12 days up and 2 days down. Everything was professionally organised upon landing at Kathmandu. Warmly greeted by the Scenic Nepal team.We were advised of the arduous journey ahead prior and to prepare adequately. It was an exciting journey ahead, from the famous Tenzing Hillary airport to Kalapather and of course the EBC. We were a group of 5 managed by our lead guide Kumar and his assistant Ramesh together with 2 strong porters.Throughout the journey, our guide made sure that we were adequately prepared and healthy enough before starting the trek each day. He relentlessly reminded us to drink plenty of water to prevent AMS, and obviously none of us had any AMS symptoms at all! At the most dangerous part of the trek, the cho la pass trek, our guide risked his own body by carrying our bags and helping us getting across icy boulders towards gokyo. He patiently waited for those falling behind and made sure everyone get it through the day. A very very responsible guide indeed.Scenic Nepal never fails to deliver. This is our second time travelling with them and I am sure it is not the last.
Viven Chang, MalaysiaBest team; provide you good Service
This is my first experience that I have to trek at high altitude during cold weather with a big group of lovely hiking/running friends, well, a great supports and substantive helps from Team of Scenic Nepal Treks is definitely needed in order to have a great pleasure and awesome memories with our friends.There were plenty unpredicted events happened prior to and during treks, such as injury before trek, flight issues, altitude sickness etc. Without them, all of us were unable to finish our trek in such sweet memories and in “good piece”. A lot of advises before trip from very responsive and patience, Dipendra. Everything were well planned and prepared upon our arrival, telephone sim-card, local currency exchange, photos for trek permits etc. No complains from our lovely porters to carry our heavy belongings during treks, even offered immediately to carry all your personal bag when they saw you were tired.A heartfelt thanks to my personal porter, Vimal always stand-by for me and followed me closely when I suffered my knee pain, and also Raj offered medical cream to me; Rajan and Raj offered immediately garlic/garlic soup to our trek friends when they hear altitude sickness from our team; Ramesh also made a lot of jokes to cheer us during trek. There are so many caring porters accompanied us to complete this uneasy task. The trip wouldn’t be so fun and safe without them too. There are too many grateful memories with them which I’m unable to finish all the sharing.A big thank you to Team of Scenic Nepal Treks for their excellent services and keep us the good job. Fingers crossed and peace of mind if you trek with them.
Colin Chien, AustraliaBest Experienced to Annapurna Base Camp
A group of nature loving people and hiking enthusiasts - mainly from Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia - banded together with a desire to undertake the Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) trek in Nepal.Through the contacts and past experiences of the group, we came to know of a dear Nepalese gentleman in Kathmandu by the name of Mr Dipendra. Mr Dipendra presented us with an exceptional package deal to trek up to the ABC and back. In Australia where I am based, I was previously quoted $2k+++AUD for a similar 12-14 day base camp trek ex-Kathmandu (excluding international flights). The opportunity therefore to directly engage with our local contact in Kathmandu was very welcomed and proved to be much better value. 18 of us joined up in a WhatsApp chat Room, and asked many questions regarding the trek with Mr Dipendra. All the queries we had were addressed promptly and that gave us certainty.When we requested to book a couple of extra nights in Kathmandu at a highly rated hotel, our local contact was once again able to secure and provide better-than-advertised-prices compared to online self-booking websites! This is the first time in all of our travel that we felt we were truly able to access significant value via local connections. Aside from always being accommodating and giving me a sense of genuine care in the offer of their services, perhaps what I cherished most was the nature of the relationship that was so friendly, trustworthy and reliable. The guides and potters selected by Mr Dipendra were truly amazing and of solid character.Thank you also for the unexpected perks and extras; from the mountain BBQ celebration party to the surprise hotel upgrade in Pokhara to the scrumptious farewell dinner back in Kathmandu followed by VIP club access at the Purple Haze, plus free t-shirts from Scenic Nepal Treks and many more...Thinking back, I cannot believe how lucky I have been to have be in such good care and memorable journey. You guys are so much more than a fabulous tour service, you have been a fantastic host of Nepal and I thank you with heartfelt gratitude!
Robert Campbell, United StatesExecellent experience & professional trekking Scenic Nepal Treks!!!
My wife and I had an unbelievable experience trekking 12 days to Everest Base Camp (EBC) with Scenic Nepal Treks and Expedition! This company is truly the top professionals when looking for a company to book any trekking or sightseeing with in Nepal! Our guide Rajan was top notch and one of the most knowledgeable and professional guides on the planet with well over 100+ trips to EBC.From the beginning before we booked our trip with Scenic Nepal Treks, Dipendra was very responsive and professional in handling our booking. He was by far the most professional we have ever dealt with when booking any trip abroad and his English was absolutely perfect. His email replies were immediate, and he provided guidance and recommendations for every aspect of our trip by both email and phone. We had several special requests for the trip including setting up a surprise bday, and Dipendra took care of everything.The professional service and A+++ attitude began from Day 1, our guide Rajan was there at the airport to pick us up and greeted us with a sign when we landed (even though our flight was delayed 3 hours). We were transported to our hotel in Thamal and spent time going over our planned 12 day hike to EBC and gear list.Once we were on the trek to EBC, Rajan took care of us like no one else could. He adjusted trekking speed as needed and went out of his way to explain the Nepalese culture and the area. As I mentioned before, he has completed this trek well over 100+ times and is well known by all the Tea House's and other guides. Being this well known has its advantages, as you usually get the best rooms at Tea House's to enjoy the amazing views. We encountered a situation where it was the full moon festival (happens 1 time per year) at the Buddhist Monastery in Tengboche and all tea house rooms were being shared. Rajan took care of our bookings and we were given a private room with the best view of Mt Everest! Another example why it pays to book with the best! After the hike we celebrated with our staff and had a great experience. I wanted to add that Scenic Nepal Treks is not just for trekking, we booked a tour of the historic sites around Kathmandu and that was a highly recommended experience. Rajan & Dipendra personally handled every aspect of the trip and even accompanied us to the airport for our return flight to make sure we were taken care of 100% and see us off!Our trip to EBC was one the best experiences of our lives! I attribute that to the hard work, knowledge, and experience of our guide Rajan & Dipendra! Looking forward to coming back to Nepal for the Annapurna Circuit next year!Thanks again Scenic Nepal Treks for making our experience so great and gaining lifelong friends!- Robert & Christy
Jessica Kong, SingaporeWonderful Team
My friends and I had great and incredible trekking experience to Upper Mustang from 18-27 May. We have 8 persons in total. The trek took us through the greenery barley farm at Kagbeni to the amazing desert scenery of this high Himalayan kingdom till Lo Manthang which brought us to 3,700meter height. Our journey ended at Muktinath, the end point of Annapurna circuit. Thumb up to the excellent services provided by Shankar from Scenic Nepal Treks to make this trip succeed. He was excellent, knowing exactly how to pace the walk and always cheerful and attentive. In term of accommodation, we stayed in small guesthouses along the way. It was great way of meeting local peoples and seeing how they live. Shankar our tour guide is caring and thoughtful person, he always ensure all of us have enough foods and rest. They ensure that our trekking holiday is both exciting and highly memorable. Any concerns were dealt with efficiently and properly. Of course, this is well run by the trek company with reasonable price. Thanks to Shankar and Scenic Nepal Treks!

Victoria Brittin, United KingdomHad an amazing Trek to Everest Base Camp with scenic Nepal treks
Had an amazing trek with scenic Nepal treks. As a single woman trekking for the first time Dipendra and his team were recommended by another solo female friend. From first contact I experienced a very kind, considerate and professional service. They listen to my requirements and after deciding I wanted to join with others the put I together with 3 other people that were a perfect fit. Our guide Shankar was incredibly knowledgeable and couldn’t do enough for us along with the porters, who never stopped smiling. I would definitely recommend Dipendra and his team for any of your trekking requirements. They add an incredible personal touch... Shanker even helped us on his day off to experience some of Kathmandu sights using the local bus.
