Finally Everest Base Camp became a reality this year

On the way to Everest Base Camp

Trekking in the Himalayas has always been a dream of mine. Finally this year it became a reality. It’s nearly a month and half since I got back from Nepal but it is still fresh in my mind. I never get tired of telling friends and family about the trip, and of course showing the photos!. After receiving a recommendation from a friend I contacted Himalayan Glacier Trekking and received a phone call from Naba the next day. I was very impressed by this response and all the follow up emails over the next few months as I got ready for the trek. No matter how trivial my emails were there was always a helpful answer to my questions.

I arrived in Kathmandu a couple of days early but Naba and his team had taken care of everything. pick-up, hotel and sightseeing. The highlight of these ‘rest days’ being the city tour. Our guide had a seemingly endless knowledge for the sites we visited!

Everest Base Camp Trek & Kala Pattar

We have been home for 6 weeks now and time we thanked you for our wonderful trip to Nepal. We had a fabulous time on our trek to Everest Base Camp thanks largely to our exceptional Trekking Guide Kapil & his team, Moden, Bilbodur & Bolbodur. They made our trek exceptional. There was always someone looking after us no matter what time of day or where we were on the trek. If not for their care and professionalism we would not have made it to Kala Pattar and experienced the most amazing views of Everest and the surrounding peaks.

“it was such an extraordinary adventure”- Everest Base Camp Trek

In reviewing those highlights most people would expect us to wax poetically about the beautiful wooded countryside on the way to Namche. Also who could forget the scary crossings of those wonderfully engineered suspension bridges replete with their colorful prayer flags billowing in the breeze while far below the rapidly flowing bluish-tinged glacier water (of the Dudh Khosi and Imja Khola rivers), twisted its way from up high, framed by steep cliffs on either side. Others would expect us to dwell on the Yaks, those magnificent creatures, unknown to most Westerners, that can only survive in the rarified atmosphere in and above Namche and that are so important to the local economy.

Evaluation of HGT after Everest Base Camp Trek

After looking at many trekking companies, we decided to go with Himalayan Glacier Trekking, which was based in Thamel in Kathmandu. As soon as we made an enquiry Naba and his staff were very helpful and organised a highly enjoyable trek.

We were a bit apprehensive at first about going trekking in Nepal, but Naba and his staff provided us with all the information we required, exceeding our expectations. Naba would often ring us up to answer any urgent questions straight away, and his email correspondence was always very clear and detailed.

We booked our flights in and landed in Kathmandu 2 days before the start of our trek. Naba had booked us into a very nice hotel right in the middle of the tourist district (Thamel) in downtown Kathmandu.

Naba and the guide we had been assigned, Prakash, met us at the airport and took us to the hotel. We spent the day settling in, with Prakash helping us to find all the right equipment we needed for our trek. We had dinner with them that night where they explained everything about the trek, and eased our last minute fears.

The day before we were to set off Prakash took us all arounf Kathmandu to the main tourist sites. It was a very enjoyable day and a great way to get to know our guide, who we would be with for the next 2 weeks. This was a great feature (free of charge) of the trek granted by HG Trek, as it gave us time to get to know our guide as the company put their customers enjoyment at the fore and make sure the guide is suited to the trekkers.

Prakash spoke English very well, was always polite and very patient with us. Everything before during, and after the trek was organised meticulously.

The trek itself was thoroughly enjoyable; Prakash always made sure our needs were met. Being my first time away from home, Prakash would always let me use his mobile phone to call my family back in Australia. I cannot speak highly enough of our guide and the company he represents. Our porter, which the company assigned, was a quiet, but very nice young man.

If I ever go back to trek in Nepal again, I will not hesitate in contact Himalayan Glacier Trekking. They are friendly, reliable, and will give you an amazing, and most of all fun experience that you won’t forget.
