⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This was our second trek with Cordial Trek, and it definitely won’t be our last! We did the Everest Base Camp trek, and everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. A special thank you to our guide Prakash Neupane, who truly made the experience unforgettable. He was both our guide and porter, carrying our 20kg bag with a smile, always patient, and constantly making sure we were comfortable and happy along the trail. His positive attitude, care, and dedication went above and beyond what we expected. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and friendly company in Nepal, Cordial Trek is the one. Highly recommend them and especially Prakash for anyone planning their next Himalayan adventure!

I was very pleased with the company. They arranged everything well for my trip. The guide was extremely helpful and without him, I would not have completed the trek. The company also tried very hard to get me on the direct flights between Kathmandu and Lukla, which was extremely difficult at this time of year.

We signed up for the 17 day Everest 3 passes trip. This was an amazing experience. Prakash is a fantastic guide and welcomes you as family. Our trip included a second guide Nabin who was also amazing. We also had 5 porters that became like family. Nepal is fantastic. We met the most amazing people. The mountains are incredible and the views stunning. The culture and history surrounds you. This is a life changing trip and seen through the eyes of Prakash and his team made it that more special. In Kathmandu Prakash was even able to procure a guide to tour local cultural heritage sites. An fantastic addition to our trip.

We didn’t even imagine this could be so amazing experience. We didnt have to worry about anything. After arriving cordial took care of transport, food, accommodation, even all tickets needed. While trecking with Pratip we felt that we are not traveling with a guide but with a friend that guided us flowlessly. He knew answears on our questions concerning the trek and he was always kind. He did his best to book us fine room and we had meetings every evening where we discussed plans for the next day. That made us feel that he is really confident with the plan and we could prepare for anything. After having some health issues he didn’t hesitate to wake up at night to provide help. This was our first trek in nepal and he helped to make it unforgettably special. Next time in nepal, definitely going for Cordial Trek and asking for Pratip again.

The service is comprehensive. Manager Ramesh and Guide Raj are always attentive. More importantly, Raj always assessed our conditions and recommended suitable choices for us. He has practised a very systematic methodology to assess, adjust, share and reason the recommendations. His vast experience gave us calm of mind and confidence to successfully complete the aim.

It was a wonderful experience, the trail was mesmerising with so many beautiful peaks all along. Our guide Raj Tamang was gem of a person always helpful, patience and ready to give insight about the trek. Special mention the way he coordinated for emergency evacuation of our friend. The stay arrangements were as per our requirements. Definitely a recommendation for others.

The trek was amazing. The entire route was scenic, which made the journey comfortable and kept the energy level high. Best part of the trek was multiple peaks which one encounters on trail and each one is uniquely beautiful. However the trek would not have been possible without the wonderful arrangement made by Cordial Trek and most importantly our guide Raj Tamang. Raj ensured each one of us reach the last mile. He was very helpful and ensured our journey, stay is comfortable.

We have booked the package of trek to EBC from Cordial Trek where while returning we had a helicopter ride from Periche to Lukla. The entire experience of the trek was awesome. The guide with us was Mr Raj Tamang and he was brilliant, he motivated us, he guided us with the name of all the mesmerising peaks of Himalaya. Raj has been very patient with us through out the journey and the best guide we would have got. The entire journey to EBC was a very memorable one and a lifetime time experience.

Me and my friend had the best experience with Cordial Trek. Raj the guide did his best to accommodate us and was very careful setting the pace going up. I highly recommend Rameshwar and his company for EBC trek and definitely for other adventures. We will hopefully come back to Nepal for more adventures with them. Thank you for making our trip a success 🙏
