If you are ever in Nepal and have 2 weeks to spare, then you need to go Everest Base Camp. You will feel a great sense of achievement and you will experience the best views in the world. We booked our trip with Nepal Hiking Team, Kathmandu. We booked it there instead of from home as the savings were astronomical. Mr. Ganga arranged the tour of Nepal with all accommodation, travel, guides, porters, flights to Lukla, most of your food requirements for quite a reasonable price that suited our budget perfectly!
We trekked for 2 weeks up the ever popular base camp route with our guide, Arun and a porter, Mon Bruda, who carried circa 25kg everyday of our luggage from his forehead. It was hard going but well worth it. We were so glad as well when we tipped our porter for his amazing work and it made our hearts happy to see his smile. We would like to genuinely encourage other trekkers to tip porters generously as they work the hardest- carrying heavy luggage and bag packs uphill without complaint.
To sum a long adventure into a few words, Nepal Hiking Team did a great job in the planning and the arrangement of the trip. We were told there might be chances of the Lukla flight delay, but luckily, our flight did not get delayed or cancelled, enabling us to complete the trip on time. The accommodations that were arranged for us by the company were comfortable and the food that we were provided was also quite nice and satisfactory. Trekking with Arun with the splendid mountain views was a memorable journey that we are so happy to have done.
