The trekking went very well. This is my second time in Nepal, hosted by Nepal Trekking Route. I really like this company. Shailesh goes above and beyond to provide the best unique trekking experience. Bishnu, the well trained local guide, is always happy to offer additional opportunities to explore areas of my interest. He worked hard and spent more time to enrich my journey. I went solo, yet never felt alone. Bishnu and Tek (my porter) were my best friends during this challenging journey. I was very comfortable and enjoyed the trekking.

I did a solo trek with Nepal trekking routes and it was amazing, from the first contact with the local owner Shailesh there was great communication between us and any questions were answered promptly. It was very well organized with my guide Santa and porter Tek being first class and taking very good care of me on the trek. The tea houses and food were of a high standard. If you're thinking of doing the EBC trek then this is the company for you. Well done to all.
Everest Base camp at 67. From the 4 World Heritage sites to EBC and back - an epic adventure.

Easily the most beautiful place on earth. This was the adventure of all adventures. If you love mountains, the Himalayas are heaven and the Nepali people and culture are magical. Can’t recommend Nepal Trekking Routes enough. Shailesh Pokharel and his team were professional and thorough. My guide Bishnu Magar was incredible. 10 out 10 by any and all standards.

We cannot recommend this company highly enough. From pick up at the airport to being dropped back there. The manager was professional, corresponding immediately to our every message. He made everything seamlessly smooth. We had a fantastic local guide, Bishnu who knows the routes and the mountains inside out. He was able to change our route easily when needed and made sure we had lovely stops overnight. Our porter, Tec was incredible and so lovely. The whole team was kind and thoughtful. We were so very well looked after. The prices are also very competitive. We chose to walk in from Jiri using the public bus from Kathmandu. It was hilarious, and we are so glad we did . It was also so good to see the real Nepal as we walked in to Lukla . The views and scenery are awesome My friend and I struggled a lot but Bishnu and Tec got us through the trek Thry worked hard and we couldnt have managed without them Certainly an adventure worth having. We will always use this company 10/10 !!!
Jiri To EBC WOW !!!

Our journey started in Kathmandu with a bus to Jiri/Bhandar. Our guide and porter travelled with us. From there we walked to EBC, back over the Chola pass and back to Lukla. It took 21 adventure packed days and was the most incredible, toughest, inspiring, awesome thing we have ever done. Shailesh organised everything perfectly. From collecting us at the airport to ensuring everything at the hotel was good and keeping in contact with us through our trek. Then getting us the only flight back from Lukla to Kathmandu!! Even to providing a meal at his house on our last night. Bishnu our guide and Tek our porter were nothing short of angels!! Both were absolutely amazing!! They were so very supportive. Very aware of our safety. Their expertise helped us through many challenging days They could not have looked after us any better. I honestly dont think we would have found a better guide or porter anywhere on earth!! Bishnu had such knowledge of the area and mountains, and was always cheerful and fun. He knew what we needed before we did ourselves and always arranged each day to accommodate us. The tea houses we stayed in, he always made sure we had good rooms and we enjoyed our time in all of them. Even one morning when we didnt eat breakfast as we werent hungry, but then we had taken so long to cover the miles to our stop we were flagging. (Mainly due to the altitude and the cold and the terrain.) Bishnu sent Tek on ahead to buy food and hot water and bring it back to us. So dear Tek covered a whole lot of extra miles that day and we had a hot "picnic " I highly recommend Nepal Trekking Routes. Shailesh the owner is extremely responsive to any communication. We were nearly 2 years organising our trip and he replied almost immediately to every contact we made to him. Thankyou so much to the whole team of Nepal trekking routes. you made our dreams come true in the most enjoyable and safe way! You are all amazing and we cant wait to book with you again.
Breathtaking

The trekking to Mt Everest Base Camp was a great experience and a challenge. The path was steep, the lodges were ascetic, the air was thin (at least during the last couple of days), but everything was manageable. The views of the Himalayas along the way were magnificent and made the whole journey worth doing and re-doing. The acclimatization was gradual so I didn't experience any of the mountain sickness symptoms. The return by a helicopter saves time and energy after the final point of the trek has been reached. The team who organized the trip and were helping along the way - Shailesh (boss), Bishnu (guide) and Bupal (porter) - were very caring and flexible to our needs. To sum up, this experience is highly recommended.
Exceptional Experience

Nepal Trekking Routes you guys were amazing. They were great to deal with from organising extra hotel stays to adjusting our trek by skipping a rest day (totally our choice) and organising our flights back on time without asking! Mr Bishnu was amazing! He was such a delight to have him along the way with plenty of laughter and jokes! He took care of us by checking on our health and ensuring we were comfortable each day. I loved that he would always walk behind us without fail so we could set the pace. He was always putting us first - Thanks Boss :) I would highly recommend the guys at Nepal trekking routes, very professional, organised and so easy to deal with! Thank you for organising a one in a life time experience for us. Skye & Dan

In the beginning, I signed up for a group but no one signed up for the same date with me so I ended up doing a solo trip to Everest base camp with my guide and also my porter, Mr.Santa. I was a bit worried at first but then I found lots of friends during the trek to EBC. Mr.Santa took great care of me, always walked behind me to check if everything was going well. Mr. Sheilesh came to the airport to welcome me and dropped me off at the airport at the end of the trip. He was also very kind and open to modifying the plan as I requested. I had a beautiful time in Nepal and wonderful experiences during my EBC trek.
