Hard to Describe Such an Incredible Experience in one review. I booked a 14-day trek with Nepal Hiking Team to do EBC and Cho La Pass as a solo traveller. I joined a group of seven, which ended up being the perfect size—big enough to be social, but not so large that it felt overwhelming. Everyone was lovely, with a great mix of ages, nationalities, solo travellers, and friends.

I was honestly so impressed with how smoothly everything went. From airport pickup to the comfortable hotel in Thamel, and the entire trek itself—everything was well organized. Our guide, Ram, was always smiling, full of energy, and kept us motivated on the tough days. Ramgee, our assistant guide, was incredibly kind and even sang beautiful songs while we hiked. The porters were amazing—so helpful and kind. A few times, after dropping our big bags, they even came back to help with daypacks!

The tea houses were cozy and always had good food. Some of us did get sick—kind of expected on this trek—but the guides were great, helping with meds and giving us time to rest. At the end of the trek, flights from Lukla were getting cancelled, but we were somehow on the first flight out. No delays to our travel plans, which was such a relief.

Overall, it was an exceptional, once-in-a-lifetime experience made unforgettable by Nepal Hiking Team. If you’re a solo traveller looking to trek in Nepal, I’d highly recommend this company. Huge thanks to Ganga, Ram, and the whole team!

I recently completed the Everest Base Camp 16-day trek itinerary run by Nepal Hiking Team over March/April 2025. I would first like to express my gratitude to Ganga, who took care of all the administrative aspects of the trek, to my guide Paban, and to the hardworking porters who transported our duffel bags from teahouse to teahouse.

Ganga made the whole booking process easy, always responding promptly to any questions I had. I was genuinely impressed by the efficient and clear communication throughout the planning.

While on the trek, our guide Paban kept a constant watch on our well-being, always alert to any signs of AMS as we gained altitude. He regularly used an oximeter to check our oxygen levels and ensure they were within the normal range for each elevation. His encouragement, positive attitude, sense of humour, and deep knowledge of the region made the journey far more enjoyable, especially during the more challenging stretches.

You may not always get the chance to speak directly with your porters, but they are the ones working tirelessly in the background to carry your gear between teahouses. They truly deserve your respect and appreciation.

The included warm jacket, sleeping bag, and duffel bag were also a welcome bonus.

Based on my experience trekking to Everest Base Camp, I can highly recommend Nepal Hiking Team

The whole experience with Nepal Hiking Team was excellent. From start to finish, we knew we were in safe hands. Bishma was outstanding—his care, attentiveness, and insights into the land, culture, and history were truly invaluable.

We did the 6-day Pikey Peak trek, which was challenging in the best way. It pushed us to our limits, but the sense of accomplishment made it all worth it. The scenery was absolutely spectacular—raw, vast, and awe-inspiring.

I highly recommend this trek, especially if you're up for a physical challenge. Can’t wait until next time!

Nepal Hiking Team made our 4-day, 3-night trip to Nepal truly special. From the very first message, Ganga Ji was incredibly responsive and thoughtful—he really listened to what we were interested in and crafted a fantastic itinerary that included great hotels and well-organized tours. Our guide, Kumar Ji, was absolutely wonderful—kind, knowledgeable, and a joy to travel with. We genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Hoping to return soon. Nepal Hiking Team is simply the best!

We had an incredible experience with Nepal Hiking Team, especially with our guide, Rudra.

The trip was fully flexible. We originally planned to do Gokyo, EBC, and Island Peak, but during the trek, we decided to change plans and just do Gokyo. It was no problem at all—they adjusted everything for us without any hassle.

We had a medical emergency, and Rudra, along with the Nepal Hiking Team, took care of everything. They arranged a helicopter back to Kathmandu, contacted our insurance, and even stayed with us at the hospital. We felt fully supported the whole time.

Rudra really understood us. He adjusted the pace to match what we were comfortable with—we never felt rushed and could enjoy the views. He also took lots of photos for us and made sure we didn’t miss any of the good viewpoints.

At the teahouses, Rudra handled it all—getting us the best rooms, taking care of food, and making sure we were comfortable.

Overall, it was an amazing experience. We’d recommend Nepal Hiking Team to anyone.

Not long ago, I accomplished a trek to Annappurna Base Camp with one of the fantastic guides, Surya Rokaya. Even though the trek to ABC was challenging, the guide and company took fabulous care of us throughout the entire time.

Our guide never walked too far ahead when we were going slow—something we really appreciated, especially after seeing other guides leave their groups behind. The whole trip was smooth from start to finish.

This was my second trek with Nepal Hiking Team, and I’d happily go with them again. I’d recommend them to anyone thinking about trekking in Nepal!

We completed a 9-day trek to Khopra Danda. We hiked through enchanted, luscious forests with moss-covered trees and blooming rhododendron and highland-like terrain and had marvelous views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri range.

Our guide Raj and porters Sabin and Ganesh were fantastic and great fun to trek with - we loved their interactions with us, each other, and the tea house staff.

Ganga, who coordinated our trip, was very responsive to our questions and accommodating of our schedule tweaks.

Overall, we had a great experience in Nepal and with Nepal Hiking Team!

There are a lot of trekking companies out there, but the main reason I chose Nepal Hiking Team was because they were super responsive to all my questions right from the start. Their package was also fairly priced; it included hot showers in some teahouses, and they provided a down jacket and sleeping bag at no extra cost. That really helped.

From the moment I landed in Nepal, everything was smoothly organized. I didn’t have to worry about anything—just focus on hiking and enjoying the trip. Our guide, Paban, did an excellent job taking care of us and handling any unexpected situations. He was very patient, even when people in our group had different needs or paces. He made sure everyone felt supported.

There were 7 of us in the group, and aside from Paban, we also had a full assistant guide, Suren, and a half assistant guide, Suzan. It was such a good setup—there was always someone walking with us, whether we were going slow, medium, or fast. Paban kept the team spirit high and made the whole trek really fun. Suren gave us a steady pace to follow, and Suzan was always looking out for us, helping with bags when needed and even protecting us from yaks on the trail!

It was a great group, and I felt really safe the entire time. Big thanks and love to the whole team. I’ll definitely be back to trek with them again!

An amazing trip with a great group of people!

Ramsaran, our guide, was excellent. He made the trek even more memorable with his compassion, laughs, dancing, friendly personality, and deep knowledge of the trail and culture.

Our assistant guide, Ram-G, and the porters were also incredibly kind and helpful. They played a big role in making sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish.

Although I made it to Everest Base Camp, I had to skip the Chola Pass due to illness. Ramsaran quickly arranged an alternative plan, and everything went smoothly. He made sure we all met up again at a lower altitude to finish the trek together, which meant a lot.

Make sure you book with Nepal Hiking Team—I honestly can’t recommend them enough!

We had an amazing experience trekking the Annapurna Circuit with Nepal Hiking Team. From start to finish, everything was so well organised—it all ran like clockwork.

Our guide, Suraj, was absolutely fantastic. He was a great laugh, super knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive the whole way through. And our porter, Tuk, was just lovely—so strong and always smiling.

We always felt safe, comfortable, and really well looked after throughout the entire journey. Couldn’t have asked for a better team.
