Thank Sherpa team for everything and we hope to go back Nepal soon.
dedicated and best giving team.they wil provide you their full and yet no faults. good job really.
would recommend
I had trek and climb Island peak in 2015 with Everest Expeditions Nepal. I found a very dedicated and professional team and excellent services. We all had success the island peak expeditions. We recommend to all friends to use this agency.
Pk peak 不是熱門路線，確相當值得的美景，喜瑪拉雅山脈陪整路。加上Nima 熱情推薦安排village 的參訪，山上村落小學的拜訪，全程優值的服務，使得這趟的健行，充滿溫馨、活力與創意。
Date of experience: November 2018
Muy bello todo lo que vimos ,el trato inmejorable ,Bellas montañas ,paisajes ,los lagos y en la ciudad todo estupendo ,la comida muy buena ,para las compras en los mercadillos y tiendas existe el regateo ,una gran experiencia los Templos y demás no hay palabras ,.Amo Nepal
This was my seven times
trip with Everest Expeditions Nepal and as before I was 100% satisfied from start
to finish. Working our way from Lukla up the valley towards Everest was an
adventure in itself but seeing Everest
and the Khumbu glacier is something I will always remember. I would recommend
this trip to anyone who is fit and has an interest in the Everest region of the
Himalayas. I will be booking my next trip to Nepal very soon.

This fabulous trip more
then met our expectations and we recommend it unreservedly.
F. Stiff Wahroonga, NSW, Australia
Everest Expeditions Nepal exceeded
every single one of my expectations! The staff were faultless, the food was
amazing and the level of care we received blew me away. The team was prepared
for just about anything!
I can't wait to have my next adventure with Everest Expeditions Nepal
J. Trayner Carnegie, VIC, Australia
The trek to Everest Base
Camp and Kala Pattar is a wonderful experience. The scenery, people and the organisation
of the trek are all superb. The camps and the food are great and the trek is
challenging but achievable with reasonable fitness. The Everest Expeditions Nepal crew
were very professional and great company, and always concerned about our
enjoyment and welfare.
P. Berents Manly, NSW
I would highly recommend
the Everest Base Camp trek and the Everest Expeditions Nepal team who could not
have done more to look after us. The standard of the food and the permanent
campsites surpassed my expectations. This was my first trekking trip overseas
and I travelled alone, but my travel companions soon made me feel very at home.
Our leader Prasant was superb, it is a big responsibility taking a group of
people above 5,000 metres but we were very well looked after and he quietly
monitored all of us. When a member of the team became ill he needed to make a
tough decision but he did it with compassion and made the right call. The
scenery is fantastic but at times testing as you get above 4,000 meters but
that is where the challenge comes in. This was an amazing experience and one I
will treasure for the rest of my life. I look forward to my next adventure and
will certainly book with Friendship World Treksagain.
Congratulations on a very professional company with a great team, work ethic
and being a company that cares.

One of the best trips
I've done! It ticks all the boxes if you're looking for a physical adventure
with a few challenges and beautiful 360-degree landscapes. There is great
history behind the country and adventurers, and the local people make you feel
welcome.
D. Forrester Dover Heights, NSW Australia
My son and I had a
wonderful trip. Everest Expeditions Nepal did it again! I was able to charge my
camera; 5504 pictures! My son carried his classical guitar with all the way to
Everest base camp and entertained everyone along the way.
Alex Auckland, New Zealand
Everest Expeditions Nepal have
clearly been doing this for some time - they have all the little things and
details worked out. Trekking in the Himalayas was something I had always wanted
to do and it lived up to expectation - fantastic trip, great memories and new
friends - many thanks to all involved.
S. Sinclair UK
I would highly recommend
the Everest Base Camp trek and the Everest Expeditions Nepal team who could not
have done more to look after us. The standard of the food and the permanent
campsites were great. Most memorable was the great scenery, camaraderie, and
wonderful Everest Expeditions Nepal support team.
P. Patterson Bayview, NSW
It was AMAZING! We had a
wonderful time trekking through such beautiful and diverse scenery and it was
surprising how 2 weeks of walking really does fly by. Our tour leader Prasant
was exceptional especially when 1 person on our tour had to be evacuated due to
suffering from cerebral edema. All of our sherpa's porters and sirdar did a
stellar job and we couldn't have done it without them. A special mention goes
to DB who kept us well fed and was always ready with "washy washy"
for us. Everybody on our tour commented on how great Everest Expeditions Nepal was.
As a travel agent I would highly recommend your company to anybody wanting an
adventure holiday where you are well taken care of. A huge thank you to Renee
for being awesome and booking everything for me.
K. Sykes Midland, WA, Australia
I would like to take a
moment and type a few lines to properly thank you for everything that you and
your team have done over the last 3 weeks. As we descended from EBC and the air
became richer, our thoughts as a group began to focus on the enormity of the
task to get a large body of tourists from Kathmandu up to Base Camp and back.
We were incredibly appreciative of the support that not only yourself, Loki and
Govinde provided, but also that of the kitchen staff and porters, without whom
we simply would not have been able to achieve our dream. On arrival at
Kathmandu we were grateful to be greeted by you and again thankful to be given
the opportunity to visit the local area and see the incredible vista of sights,
from the Holy River and Hindu funerals ,to the Stupa and the surrounding area.
As I said to you on the trail it is something that I will never forget and also
something that I would like my own children to see in the years ahead. It was a
fascinating start to the trip and a huge contrast to the days ahead from
Lukla.
From arrival at Lukla on Day 2 to arrival again 2 weeks later it was both a
pleasure and very humbling to watch the efficiency, hard work and sheer
kindness of all staff members who did all that they could to make us
comfortable at all times.
The food was fantastic and varied and obviously essential to keeping us moving,
the washing water at each stage was again hugely appreciated. Keeping a group
of tourists healthy and well fed is not an easy task, especially as we progressed higher, but your team managed it with
seemingly effortless enthusiasm, always cheerful and helpful despite, I am
sure, their own hardships and sacrifices. Please pass on our thanks to all of
the kitchen staff again.
Karma, as the man in front, was very aware of the correct pace with which to
move our group and knew exactly when we were tired and in need of a rest. We
were all incredibly humbled by the fact that when we stopped for lunch or tea,
and indeed first thing every morning with tea, it was Govinde who we saw,
always cheerful. He put in a huge effort every day, from before we woke up,
through every meal, to providing hot water, I am sure to long after we went to
bed! Again we are all very grateful to him, and wish him many happy years as a
Sherpa guide and beyond. He is a credit to Everest Expeditions Nepal and we would
like the company to be aware of our gratitude.
Walker Saintfield, UK
An outstanding trek. Our
guide and team - Sherpa, Sidar, cooks and porters were outstanding friendly
people. Everest Expeditions Nepal provides an excellent package for this trip. If
your thinking about it, book it, you won't be disappointed!
M. Saul Dromara, UK
Thank you to Padam and
his team on the EBC and KP trek for being such amazing hosts and making our
trip so memorable. The views are spectacular and the trekking provides a real
physical test for those looking for such a challenge. Opportunities to interact
with like-minded people from all over the world was also a personal highlight.
The trip duration and itinerary is perfect in my opinion. I look forward to my
next adventure with World Expeditions!
Kribin Naidu. Qatar
Bikash and his crew lead
us on the Everest Base Camp & Kala Pattar over 21 Sep to 08 Oct 2015 and it
was amazing. While the walking and views were outstanding, Bikash and the others
made it a memorable experience by making sure every moment was interesting,
exciting, and thoroughly enjoyable.
Otto Hermann Hong Kong
My brother in law and I
recently returned from our trip to Nepal and just wanted to let you know that
it was a wonderful adventure. I would appreciate if you could pass on our
appreciation to our Guide (Sundar) our Sherpa (Amar) and our Sirdar (Pasang)
and the rest of the team they were absolutely exceptional and took good care of
the expedition members.
J. Gracia. UK
A most fantastic
adventure that won't be easily forgotten in more ways than one (earthquake!!).
We had glorious weather and spectacular views of Mt Everest that you just
couldn't get enough of. Reaching Base Camp and being able to say 'I've done it'
was a pinnacle moment. Food was excellent and plentiful, but be prepared for
carbs and garlic overload!
Z. Revill London, UK
Absolutely fantastic,
loved every minute of the trip. Physically, mentally and emotionally draining
but well worth it. The scenery and mountain views were breathtaking. Would
recommend some training beforehand.
Everest Expeditions Nepal had everything covered - our guide Randeep his helpers
Ram and Nohan, all the porters and cooks were amazing. The food was good, and
plenty of it. Randeep was very knowledgeable about the local culture, landmarks
and mountains. They saw to our every need. Already planning where to go next
with World Expeditions.
Aidan Cartwright London, UK
Best trip ever! Everest Expeditions Nepal were fantastic. Everything was taken care of - all we had to do was
walk. Our leader, Subal, looked after us and instantly knew if someone was not
well. Best group of people I have ever travelled with. So many wonderful
experiences.
L. Dron Shellharbour, Australia
I could not be more
impressed with this company. The guide, food and organisation in general was
top class with absolutely everything thought of and taken care of. This trek
has certainly made me a trekking fanatic, and I can see myself travelling again
with them soon.
D. Edelman Melbourne, Australia
Our entire trip was
extremely well organised from start to finish. The food was excellent and our
trek leader and crew worked so hard to make our trip safe and enjoyable. The
tents at the permanent campsites are quite spacious, and we had no trouble
keeping warm during the freezing nights. All things considered, this really was
a trip of a lifetime.
Wright Brisbane, Australia
Thank you for taking me
to such an incredible place with the most amazing people. The whole experience
deeply touched my heart, and I am forever grateful.
E. McNiven
Thank you Everest Expeditions Nepal for a great, well organised trip to Mt Everest Base Camp/Kala
Pattar. The wonderful local guide and crew were so kind, helpful - nothing was
too much for them. We feel most fortunate to have had Ramesh as our head guide
- such a lovely man who was gentle and kind, but also had a ability to be firm
when needed (this with a big smile on his face!). We left Nepal with lots of
memories.
S. Pinker
This was the trip of a
lifetime, made all the better because I trekked in winter - yes it was cold,
and the trekking was hard, but seeing the mountains in winter was awesome,
unbelievable, amazing.
P. Hunt Brisbane, Australia
Visiting Everest Base
Camp was the aim of the expedition, but in the end, it was travelling in this
amazing country with such wonderful leaders and companions that I will remember
forever.
J. Woods London
For me, the most a memorable part of the the trip is not easy to voice. From the arrival in
Kathmandu I was introduced to a new world and an unfamiliar way of life - I was
amazed by the kindhearted nature of all the locals I had the pleasure of
meeting. Stepping onto base camp was an experience I will not soon forget. I
had a huge feeling of achievement after reaching my destination, knowing that I
had never set foot anywhere as high before.
Feetham USA
It was the most
wonderful trip and experience. Nepal is such a special and amazing country and
its people is truly its soul. I am pretty sure that our group leader, Sonam
Lama sent a video of our group collecting rubbish on our trek. I hope this
becomes a permanent activity on your treks.
The world is a gift to us and as the most intelligent creatures on the planet
(supposedly!) it should be our responsibility to to protect and look after it.
I would also like to see a change in the treatment and available work to the
porters and local staff by travellers. In our group we made a conscious effort
to incorporate the boys into out evening card games, they taught us to cook the
Nepalese food and learn some local language. We even cooked for the boys on the
last night (with their help) and sat all the staff down and fed them and then
we all ate together! It was such a highlight! It's a sacred land and the locals
are so proud, passionate and committed to working and looking after each other
and the foreigners. I had a feeling that a lot of travellers were not as
respecting and grateful to these magnificent locals. For a lot of travellers it
seemed more of a goal to trek to various places rather then a passion or
privilege. I hope time can change this and bring the passion and respect beck
to these magnificent destinations as the locals view upon it.
Eliza McNiven NSW
Most memorable: seeing
Mr Everest against blue skies and standing in 3 feet of snow. Be prepared for
unexpected snow.
F. Burgerhout New Zealand
Most memorable part of
the trip: The scale and size of the landscape and mountains-amazing! I found
the trip challenging, and am only now appreciating the adventure being back at
work. It really was an outstanding trip and a thrill for me to finally be able
to explore a region with which I have always been fascinated. The trip was well
organised, the food was well prepared with as much variety as possible to keep
us interested in eating at altitude, the camps comfortable and pleasant. Our
Leader, Rinzin, was fantastic and it was really his enthusiasm and optimism
that made the trip so enjoyable for us.

Alex Feetham USA
I would like to thank
you for a brilliant trip. I would particularly like to thank the leader,
Rinzin. He deserves special praise for the way he looks after people safety,
indulges them with local stories and knowledge and also made the trip extra
special. As a company, you would do well to keep this man on the books as he is
one of the best guides I've ever come across. He gives Everest Expeditions Nepal the
successful name it carries and without doubt deserves every bit of praise I
could give and a whole lot more.
Robert Powell UK
I could not be more
impressed with this company. The guide, food and organisation in general was
top class with absolutely everything thought of and
taken care of. This trek has certainly made me a trekking fanatic and i can see
myself travelling again with them soon.
Advice for other travellers: Train hard before as it was quite tough physically
but still remained immensely enjoyable

WOW - Age
is no Barrier Doing Everest Base Camp in my late 50's and trekking should have
told me Don't do this, but I did and because of the staff and there commitment
to their clients I made it and I wasn't the last person to reach Base Camp. The
Leader was amazing, the head Sherpa, words cannot describe how he looked after
all of us. Would I do this trek again, in a heart beat, don't think about it
just book it.
J. Thompson VIC, Australia
Best trip
ever! Everest Expeditions Nepal were fantastic - everything was taken care of - all
we had to do was walk. Our leader, Subal, looked after us and instantly knew if
someone was not well. The best group of people I have ever travelled with. So
many wonderful experiences.
Most memorable part of your trip: The mountains, the friendship within the
trekking group.
L. Dron Australia
We wanted to let you
know that we had a fantastic trip to Mt Everest Base Camp with Everest Expeditions Nepal guides and crew. Both of us believe we were most fortunate to have Ramesh as
our head guide as he showed amazing leadership qualities. He was gentle, kind
but also able to be firm (with a big smile on his face) when needed. All up a
great trip. Thanks also for you assistance leading up to the trek.
S. Pinker UK
Well planned and
executed trip. All the staff were excellent and provided a very high level of
service. The quality of accommodation at the campsites was great as was the
Radisson in Kathmandu. Food on the trip was plentiful and of a high standard.
Ch'ng NT, Australia
We have recently
returned from your Everest Base Camp Trek (27th of Oct - 13th of Nov 2016) and
we want to let you know how pleased our group was with the care and attention
we received. Everything was beyond our expectations and we truly did have the
trip of a lifetime. Our Leader Roy and our Team (Nawang, Dawa, Krishna, Tandi,
Bikrum, Kayala, Sheri and Rudra) were amazing. We were treated to great food
and quality service along the way. We felt well supported, guided, encouraged
and taken care of, without being overly pampered. The team were professional,
efficient and extremely hard working, with the majority of the work being done
behind the scenes without us even knowing. Please can you pass on our sincere
thanks and appreciation to all involved.
Kate & Guy Scott United Kingdom
Hi Kyle just wanted to
let you know that our trip was absolutely fantastic. Once again, the
organisation, programme and planning done by your team was excellent. It is
important to me that the travel company I choose is as environmentally and
socially responsible as they can be. One little thing like the fact we didn't
have to use any bottled water on the trip was great.
We all had such a great time, and XXX and I, especially, enjoyed our 4th trip
with Everest Expeditions Nepal Can’t wait for the next one...cycling from Vienna to Budapest I
think. We have the greatest confidence that our next trip will be just as good!
S. Turner N.S.W
Roy was the best, very
informative, fair, kind and considerate, calm and thoughtful.... he deserves a
medal! Tents were great and I thought even better than the lodges.
J.Harman Sydney, NSW
Five Stars all the way
with Everest Expeditions Nepal!! Excellent campsites - wake up in the most beautiful
places in the world, surrounded by craggy, snow-covered mountain peaks, wild
rivers and picturesque Nepali villages. Great food, cooked on site by EEN cooks
and helpers, all trained in hygienic food preparation and service. I had fresh
and cooked vegies every day! Plus lots of brekkie options, and delicious soups
and meat dishes at night. Group leader Roy spoke excellent English, was very
experienced and professional, and could answer all our questions. Roy helped us
with finding WIFI spots, charging our devices, finding showers and good laundry
options. He was also very entertaining with his singing and guitar! Among many
other things he gave us guidance on what layers to wear each day, and most
importantly, monitored everyone for signs of altitude sickness. He also walked
at the back of our group to keep an eye on everybody and give care and advice
to anyone with any problems. Our Sherpa Meg who guided the trek from the front
and also helped serve the food, brought us our early morning cup of tea and our
wash-bowls, and anything else we needed, was a busy man all day long and
nothing was too difficult for him. We had porters to carry our kitbags and they
were very well organised by the Sirdar Gopal, picking up our kitbags every
morning and delivering them to our new campsite before we got there ourselves.
Great work guys. I had a wonderful experience on the trek, amazing scenery and
Nepali culture, just lovely people in our group (in fact the best!), we had
lots of fun together! The trek was quite strenuous with many, many steep
inclines and declines, it was a great achievement for me and I was fortunate to
go with such wonderful trek buddies and such an excellent organisation as Everest Expeditions Nepal.
Anonymous, via Tour Radar
The trek was immaculately
organised down to a tee. I could not be more impressed with our itinerary and
how it was planned and executed to provide a seamless and world-class
experience. What was most influential, however, was the quality of staff that
accompanied us on our journey.
Spending 14 days in close proximity to our guides and porters means that their
personalities and attitudes have a strong bearing on the way the trip pans out
and whether it is a positive or negative experience. Our guides Asim and Nabin
were absolutely exceptional. They not only performed their duties, but also
went above and beyond their responsibilities to be extremely caring, friendly,
and fun-loving. They single-handedly made the trek memorable and are excellent
ambassadors for Everest Expeditions Nepal
Examples of this are plentiful, but of particular note was how the crew added
personal elements to the journey. Asim's daughter turned ten whilst we were on
the trip - the day's acclimatisation walk therefore revolved around ascending
high enough to gain phone reception so that we could all sing happy birthday to
her. That night, our dessert was a birthday cake (and we all sang again). Nabin
was equally as friendly, hugging each of us as we reached Base Camp and
sumitted Kala Pattar.
Following the trek, Asim came to our hotel to see us several times and
recommended multiple restaurants and experiences in Kathmandu. He also got
Nabin on the phone so we could say a final goodbye the night before our flight
home.
In this way I felt that it was an incredibly personal experience, and one that
I will certainly recommend to others. Thank you very much to everyone at Friendship
World Treksthat made the trek a fantastic experience.
Tom Hall Sydney
We have just returned
from Nepal and the Everest Base Camp trek. we had an amazing trip, everything
was well organised and the staff in Nepal were fantastic. Our guide Tikendra
was an absolute credit to Everest Expeditions Nepal, with both his professionalism and
knowledge. I could not speak more highly of all of our local guides and
Sherpas.
After traveling and trekking with other companies world wide, I will definitely
be traveling with you again. The standards that we experienced are definitely
above and beyond anything that is out there in the current market!
Thank you for a trip of a lifetime!
David W. Victoria, Australia
