Great experience with Everest Base Camp trek
87vaishalip,,May 11, 2025
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00My husband and I did Everest Base Camp trekking with Alpine Luxury Treks Pvt Ltd organised by Badri. The nick name I have given to Badri is ‘Smiling Badri’ as that is what he is - always a smile on his face. Right from initial queries and communication during planning to the last day of farewell dinner what was incredible with Badri was his prompt replies and punctuality of his entire team. Also no request however big or small was an issue for Badri. He tried his level best to attend to them and these things money cannot buy. I think these attributes makes him and his team and company stand out ! The EBC trek we did as a couple was our unique way to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary and our journey together. Our guide Thile, porters Dinesh and Kishore with Badri made it so special and unique by getting us a celebration cake right at the EBC. We will cherish this forever!! A big shout out for our guide Thile and porters Dinesh and Kishore who made our dream to reach EBC a reality. A big thank you to all three of them. Thile was a great guide again with a smile always and took great care of us on the trek again which is priceless. He had many years of experience as a guide. He was humble and took any feedback given very constructively. I can’t wait to go on another trek with Badri, Thile and rest of his team. Thank you to Badri’s help Sudeep and local guide Ranjan who was very knowledgeable and drivers Ashish and Ravi. Keep it up and our best wishes to the team.
Best Trekking company ever!

5.00We organised our EBC trek with Badri and his team. From the beginning we were very impressed with Badri's professionalism and communication skills. He provided service with a smile and was always quick to respond to our queries. He was very flexible with our needs and helped make changes in our itenerary at very short notice. The guide we had for EBC was Thile who was very helpful and knowledgeable. Porters Dinesh and Kishore were brilliant and unwavering. We were treated to a surprise cake celebration to celebrate our anniversary once we reached EBC.

Second time with them again wonderful

- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00We had been to Nepal in December with them for the second time, up to Everest base camp; such a fantastic trip of a lifetime. Very first day, we went there and had a wonderful welcome dinner at Satkar Restaurant, a typical authentic meal with authentic music and performance. Late at night, I went back to the hotel. The next day, we roam around Bhaktapur and Patan Durbar Square. Our tour guide Ranjan shared interesting Malla and other dynastic history of Nepal; such a beautiful one cannot be defined in words. Another Day flies to Lukla, the scary airport of a lifetime; close view of the mountains was amazing. Undoubtedly, the breathtaking views of the Maha Langur Himalayan range, including Mt Everest and Ama Dablam, the challenging trek, and the warm hospitality of the locals enhanced the experience level. The stunning landscapes and capped cliffs were so breathtaking I felt I was in heaven, and the camaraderie among fellow trekkers made every step worthwhile and entertaining. Guides and porters were dancing and singing Resam ferrriii, some times uphill sometime down hill resam ferriiii still fresh in my mind. Despite the physical demands, the team made it very comfortable by motivating us to reach EBC, which was immensely rewarding. Undoubtedly, an adventure seeker cannot miss such an excellent time to have a wonderful place on top of the world.

5.00I recently completed the Everest Base Camp Trek with Trek Nepal Himalayas, and it was an unforgettable journey that surpassed all expectations. Our group of five friends embarked on this thrilling adventure, and the entire experience was nothing short of exceptional. The trek was flawlessly organized, thanks to Trek Nepal Himalayas. The itinerary was perfectly crafted, allowing us to acclimatize effectively and enjoy every step of the journey. The pacing was ideal, ensuring a good balance between challenging ascents and well-deserved rest periods. The attention to detail in planning this trek truly stood out, making it a smooth and enjoyable experience for our entire group. The teahouses selected by Trek Nepal Himalayas were comfortable and provided a cozy retreat after a day of trekking. Clean, well-maintained, and equipped with all the necessary amenities, these teahouses added to the overall positive experience of the trek. Our guide, Janga, was the heart and soul of our journey. His extensive knowledge of the region, coupled with a warm and friendly demeanor, made the trek even more enjoyable. Janga's guidance was invaluable, ensuring our safety and enhancing our understanding of the local culture and geography. He was not just a guide but a true companion throughout the trek. Behind the scenes, Badri and his team worked tirelessly to make this trek a seamless experience for us. Their professionalism, dedication, and friendly attitude were commendable. Badri ensured that every aspect of the trek, from logistics to the smallest details, was taken care of efficiently.

5.00EBC trek organized by Trek Nepal Himalayas was awesome. Badri customized the package based on our preference and was always available for all the queries. Our guide was Thile who welcomed us with a smiling face at Lukla and from then on, it was a great experience. He explained about the beautiful mountains along the trail. He paced us slowly but steadily and made sure we did complete the trek successfully. Kiran was our porter who never complained about the weights and was always at ease. The entire Trek was awesome with perfect accomodation, food and everything. I would definitely suggest Trek Nepal Himalayas for perfect trek.
