Lovely Sherpas, EBC Trek 12 Days!

 

It was wonderful to see those beautiful faces everywhere around a place where there was no easy access to anything. The ever smiling Sherpa’s proved that money cannot buy happiness. Besides, the Everest looked absolutely amazing and I had a wonderful time in Nepal with Everest Base Camp treks and tours.

Amazing experience with great team, 12 Days EBC trek!

It was really exciting and joyful trek to EBC 12 Days. The views were amazingly wonderful and mesmerizing. The entire team and their effort were remarkable without them I couldn’t have made it to the base camp. The guides were great and services were very satisfying. All the staffs were very friendly and helpful. They took a very great care of me and my team members during our stay in Nepal. We are pleased by such a homely environment and kind behavior towards us. We can recommend this company to everyone.

Great trek with amazing services with Everest Base Camp Treks and tours to EBC.

We booked the trip with Everest Base Camp Trekking Tours and they showed a very warm hospitality soon after we landed at TIA. Sujan was there to pick up at airport and he took us to the hotel where we met with Kedar and we were already impressed with him on the very first meet. The guide Deepak was very talented and professional and the services were always great. I and my son had a great time trekking to EBC with Deepak. We completed the trek within 12 days and it was wonderful experience. If anyone asks me about which company to choose for to travel in Nepal then I will definitely say Everest Base Camp Treks and Tours.
