I recently completed the Everest Chola Pass Trek with Nepal Hiking Team, and it was an unforgettable adventure. From start to finish, the experience was seamless and truly exceptional.

Our guide, Uttam, was outstanding. His knowledge of the region, its history, and the local culture was impressive and made each day of the trek enriching and educational. Uttam's professionalism and patience were remarkable, ensuring that we felt safe, informed, and well-taken care of throughout the journey. His friendly demeanor and genuine passion for the mountains added a special touch to the trek, making every moment enjoyable. We shared many laughs each day and always had something to smile about!

We were also incredibly fortunate to have Amar as our porter/Sherpa. Amar was an absolute pleasure to trek with; his strength and dedication were evident as he safely carried our bags across the challenging terrain. Beyond his physical capabilities, Amar's warm personality and helpful nature made him an integral part of our trekking experience.

The Everest Chola Pass Trek itself was breathtaking, with stunning landscapes, challenging passes, and awe-inspiring views. We decided to go the clockwise route enjoying Gokyo valley first before embarking on Cho La Pass and EBC. We had phenomenal views and a perfect weather window for hiking - even the snowy Cho La Pass terrain was enjoyable and made for a real Himalayan experience.

The itinerary was well-planned, allowing us to acclimatize properly and enjoy each segment of the journey to its fullest. The support from Nepal Hiking Team was top-notch, from the accommodations to the meals, ensuring a comfortable and memorable adventure. The evening fruits after dinner were always a nice treat!

I highly recommend Nepal Hiking Team for anyone looking to embark on this incredible trek. Special thanks to Uttam and Amar for making our trek truly exceptional. Their dedication and hard work made all the difference, and I cannot recommend them enough for future trekkers.

My son Gabriel and I were delighted to have chosen Nepal Hiking Team for our unforgettable trek to Everest Base Camp. Our 17-day route took us through many beautiful natural sights as we followed the Dudh Koshi River towards Gokyo Lakes, crossing the river several times on suspension bridges. 

At Gokyo, a 4:30 am ascent of Gokyo Ri allowed us to view the sunrise over Everest and some of the most spectacular scenery we have ever witnessed. After Gokyo came the long and arduous ascent of Cho La Pass at 5420m and a crossing of the Ngozumpa glacier, which brought us back to the main EBC trail. 

We spent a night at base camp, a unique opportunity to interact with some climbers preparing to summit Everest. The accommodation in tea houses was spartan but perfectly fine, and the provided food was always tasty, nourishing, and plentiful.

A great big thanks goes out to Ganga for flawlessly organizing what was essentially a custom trip. Many thanks, too, to our peerless porter Jiban, who amazed us with his capacity to haul our duffel bags up the steepest of slopes—and always with a smile! But the biggest thank you must go to our guide and friend, Arjun, who ensured the trek went smoothly and ensured our well-being every step. 

I can’t comment on the many other companies that operate treks to EBC, but I can resolutely state that Nepal Hiking Team goes out of its way to ensure client satisfaction. I highly recommend NHT and would not hesitate to use them again.

An absolutely unforgettable journey with an incredible guide - we loved it!

My girlfriend and I chose the Everest Base Camp Trek Short with Nepal Hiking Team and adored every bit of it! Their glowing reviews and being a locally-owned company initially drew us in.

From the very start, Ganga from the team was wonderfully responsive to all our inquiries, and the airport pick-up service was a great touch.

Our small group size of three was just perfect! We met our guide, Rajkumar Adhikari—Raj, the next day, who turned out to be the best guide we could have asked for!

Raj was incredibly attentive, always ensuring our accommodations were spotless, preparing fresh fruit each evening, and regularly checking our oxygen levels. His presence from breakfast till after dinner, always with a warm smile, made us feel so cared for.

Even when minor ailments cropped up, Raj was ready with a remedy. We highly recommend him and are eager for more adventures with him.

Our porters, Bishnu and Madan, were also exceptionally kind and helpful, making our experience a true team effort. The warmth of the Nepalese people is just remarkable!

As for the trek itself, the Himalayas are beyond comparison. The stunning beauty and the challenge of high-altitude hiking make it an extraordinary experience.

We couldn’t be happier with our adventure and encourage everyone to opt for the Nepal Hiking Team. We hope to return soon!

We're three friends from Hong Kong who undertook Poon Hill and Annapurna Base Camp. Two months before our Nepal adventure, we started looking for a travel agency to sort out all the details so we could enjoy a hassle-free trip. Nepal Hiking Team was incredibly responsive, offering us useful suggestions every step of the way. 

We chose them to handle everything from hotel bookings to internal flights and airport pickups. Our guide, Rajesh, was both fun and young, attentive and attentive to our needs. When our flight from Kathmandu to Pokhara was canceled due to weather, Rajesh swiftly arranged a jeep to Pokhara, keeping us right on schedule. 

Throughout the trek, he was vigilant about our safety, which gave us great peace of mind. Our porters, Robin and Budda, were always upbeat and industrious, carrying our bags with constant smiles and ensuring our comfort. This trek was our first hiking experience abroad, and it couldn't have been better. The people of Nepal are hot and welcoming. 

The views from the mountains were breathtaking, and the sunrise over the snow-capped peaks from Poon Hill was simply stunning.

Glimpses of the Annapurna Base Camp Trek

We made a 14-day Manaslu Circuit incl. transportation from Kathmandu to the trek start and to Pokhara after the trek. That included 3 side treks to Himalchuli Base Camp, Manaslu Base Camp, Rui La Pass (Tibetan border).

We are a group of 5 high school friends turning 50 this year that reconnected after many years.

From the very beginning we got a very professional service from Ganga who was achievable, responsive, flexible, provided suggestion, etc. That standard was kept by him throughout and after the trek.

Our guide Krishna turned to be a unique young person. Perfectly organized, very responsible, maturely reacting to unexpected challenges that are inevitable taking into account nature, team and length of the trek. At the same time professionally relaxed and making good team spirit, ensuring everyone and everything is OK. We could feel all the time we are in good hands and could enjoy the unique experience. He also managed to organize on the way a few elements that were not certain and we treated them as 'best case scenario', like 2 nights in the Buddhist monastery being a base for us to make the Himalchuli Base Camp 1-day side trek. I myself made the Annapurna Circuit exactly 25 years earlier when we organized everything ourselves and had no guide or porters so in the beginning I was even a bit embarrassed how caring and committed Krishna and the 3 porters were.

Finally we all made the trek exactly according to the daily itinerary. That was a splendid experience that we'll for sure remember forever. Highly recommended!

The journey to conquer Mera Peak in the majestic Himalayas with the Nepal Hiking Team was an experience beyond compare. We made it to the summit of Mera Peak and had an awesome journey.

Our three-week trek to Mera Peak was well-organized. The Nepal Hiking Team planned everything from transportation and accommodations to meals and permits, leaving us free to immerse ourselves fully in the breathtaking scenery and exhilarating challenge ahead. Thanks a lot to Ganga, Sanjay, and Dipak, who supported us during the trek and provided a wonderful experience.
