Everest Base Camp Trek reviews

I completed the Everest Base Camp Trek this September along with a friend. Niether of us had undertaken anything this challenging before, or climbed above 2000m altitude in the last 5 years. The Amigo trekking company was perfect in helping us through the trek, and Kathmandu aswell, in a manner that was enjoyable and atentative. Our guide Shusil Khanal was fantastic throughout the entire trip, addressing any issues that came up. All our accomodation, meals, and transport to/ from Lukla were seen to. Bags and gear provided as neccessary, and we were kept updated at all times. The company was very quick to identify and overcome any obstacles along the way. Most importantly, Shusil and our porters: Deepac and Schuza, were friendly, upbeat, and informative. It was a pleasure spending the 11 days trekking with them, and it really felt like a team accomplishment when we all reached base camp. Amigo trekking was perfect for a novice hiker such as myself. Id highly recommend this package, and this team. Zak.

What a great holiday! Big thanks to Navaraj and Bikash who were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable and really made the trek amazing. The scenery was fantastic and we met some great people along the way. The places we stayed and the food we ate were good. We would definitely consider using Amigo again for another trek (and would ask for Navaraj and Bikash again! ).

This is my second trekking trip in Nepal, and compare with the previous trip, AMIGO have show us how professional they are, and they have provided us the best of everything, in term of services, accommodation, and attitude. Anyway, I could like to special thanks to our tour guide, Bikal Duwadi, and his teams, the best tour guide that I ever have. I hope everyone will get the chance to have him as the tour guide and agree with me on the best tour guide part. Cheers!

I had the best experience with amigo treks. They were flexible and accommodated to my needs. The guide especially, Bhoj Kumar, was a wonderful guide and great guy. He was very informative and considerate during our trek. This trek was a truly amazing experience and I would like to thank all at Amigo for making my holiday so wonderful. Thank you amigo and most importantly, Bhoj. I will have another adventure with your guys for sure.

I'm just heading home after completing the Everest base camp trek. it has been an outstanding experience in so many different ways. From the outset, Amigo was very organized professional and accommodating. The trip was made so much more successful by the way the Guide and porter worked so hard to fix up any problems or change plans to better suit our needs. Bhoj Kumar was the guide such a good guy making every effort to support and give me the best experience, also was Pemba lama the porter if you planning to make the trip i would absolutely make sure you have these two guys with you they have made the trip one that I will remember for a very long time.

WOW, Where do I start? I have wanted to do this trek for about 30 years, so when we decided to book we compared many trekking companies to decide who to go with and #AmigoTrekking scored the best and they certainly lived up to expectations. We had an amazing journey far better than our wildest dreams. There were a few reasons why our trip was so good and here's why. Prior to the Journey: AMIGO Trekking were so professional prior to the journey, answering my numerous emails in the leadup in regards to gear requirements, weight of rental gear and logistics. We communicated with Niti regularly and she always got back to me within 24 hours. This is very important when trying to plan such a trip. Amigo and Niti were also the only company that effortlessly accommodated our desire to extend our stay in Tengboche to attend the festival at the monastery. (November) Once we arrived: We were greeted at the airport by a very friendly and professional mountain guide 'Hari Adhikari' who immediately helped us navigate our exit from the airport making a very chaotic situation easy. We felt like royalty. Little did we know at that point just how much this one man would shape our trek into the amazing journey it became. For the next 14 days Hari was by our side perfectly pacesetting our speed for success. He steered us to quality tea houses with the best food for breaks, negotiated the best rooms for us every night and even showed us the best spots for pictures along the way. His experience and cheery disposition was very visible with every interaction he had. He seemed to be best friends with every guide, porter and tea house owner we passed. Hence we nicknamed him 'Happy Hari'. No task was too big or small and he made a point of letting us know where he'd be every night (his room number, tent or dining room) in case we needed him. He was not only the main reason for our successful completion of the Trek, but added many enjoyable moments for us as well. If you are lucky enough to have Hari as your guide, make sure you take a pack of UNO cards with you. Hari loves the game! Along with Hari we were also lucky to have on our team an amazing young man Chandra (Sandra) who was our super human porter. He too always wore a smile, even when lugging our bags over rock after rock! Thanks mate, we don't know how you do it. If we can impart one thing we've learned that will make your Trek in Nepal memorable. It's go with Amigo and insist on Hari and Chandra. You won't regret it! Thanks guys, we are forever grateful.

Max and me did the EBC Trek beginning of November and we had a wonderful time in the Himalayas with our mountain family. We want to say many thanks to the Amigo Team for organizing the trip and for making all these moments possible, thank you Manu for being the best Guide you can ask for - except you want to win a round of dhumbal - and thank you Sujan for being the best porter, having always a smile on his face. We highly recommend EBC Trek with Amigo!! :-)

Booking experience: Was super easy/hassle-free. I was able to choose any start date for the trek, compared to other companies that force you down set start dates. This is ultimately the reason why I booked with Amigo. Arrival/Welcome/Hotel: Was also terrific. Though my flight was delayed by an hour, Ramesh waited patiently and greeted me with a smile. The hotel that they have organised for me is good for a 3* venue and had really nice staff. Food/Tea Houses: Was also fantastic. The tea houses we stayed at were good. They’re not 3* venues but they do the job well. Guide and Porter: Ramesh (my guide) and Pemba (porter) are such beautiful individuals. I had such an AMAZING time throughout the whole experience because of them. These two men are assets to the company - they deserve a pay rise/promotion! Both are very kind, considerate and patient. They know the route very well and answered all questions with accuracy and confidence. I felt very confident and comfortable with their company. I’m so lucky to have had them allocated to me. They felt and acted like family throughout the entire trek.
