We had a great adventure, it was hard but worth it. The guide Mr. Prakash Adhikari was very experience and helpful. We managed to complete the EBC trak thanks to him And thanks the good weather we had. We flew from Kathmandu to Namche Bazar which was very good idea. We came back by foot to Lokla and no by Helicopter. We highly recommend them.

The experience was life changing. I won't loose time on trying to give a feedback regarding all the emotion I've felt along the way. Some words instead must be said about my guide: Arjun. I've met Arjun one day before starting trekking and I immediately felt he was seriously passionated about his job. He didn't leave anything behind and from the beginning he was very close and helpful. For instance he wanted to check all my mountaineering gear and make sure I had every peace I needed for the trek: turned out I needed a better down jacket, more socks and one quick dry t-shirt more; he brought me to those sellers he trusted more and rented a down jacket for me (I paid no money, I also have to thank Shree for this). From day 1 Arjun has ALWAYS been on time. He was never late and always had a "good morning" face and friendly words (how'd you sleep, how you feeling, etc). Arjun's experience is big, although he has been doing it for over 16 years you can feel he truly still enjoys the trip so much you wouldn't ever imagine he already accomplished it at least 40 times. One of the most valuable characteristics about Arjun is that he really knows what he's doing: he knows the meds you'd need in case of emergency; he knows EVERY path, shortcut, village, etc; he knows every meaning behind the village's name; he knows what's the best time schedule to follow for you to have the best service (in terms of: arriving on time somewhere; taking a break somewhere nice; waking up at the right time so that you enjoy the trek; etc). He checks the weather and gives you a little briefing during breakfast. THE MOST VALUABLE CHARACTERISTIC about Arjun is that he has a huge network of friendships. He's got every telephone number he needs: from the jeep-guy to the guest house owner; from the tourist bus driver to the taxi service. He really doesn't miss a chance to put you in the position of feeling comfortable and in a safe environment thanks to his network of relationships. He knows most of the native people we met along the way; he knows every tea house guest, every guide, etc. I want to list a couple of annoying things I haven't liked: -I was asked too many times if I wanted ginger tea or milk coffe. I felt like there was some business behind; -I met two Australians trekkers without a guide and became a good friend of them. But for some reason Arjun didn't really want me to stay with them along the way. The schedule was too strict at times apparently for no reason; Arjun will ofter repeat that he wants "to give you the best service": and I think that's exactly what he does. Last but not least I want to list some extra service he did for me with no money requested: -He picked me up at the Kathmandu bus station with his motorbike and brought me to Kathmandu city center; -He (and my porter Uttam) had my food brought to my table every single time; and dishes brought back to the kitchen also; -He gifted me with his map; -He brought me to the Hot Springs; -He bought for me many snacks: from chips to peanuts. For the price I paid (1300$) I was given an extra premium level of service I would never had expected. At the end Arjun is a friend more than a guide. Thank you.

Helloooo and congratulations to BaseCamp Adventures - our group of 8 people did the ABC trek and enjoyed every step, thanks to the kindness, positivity and care of our guide Prakash and our porters Utom, Dabe, Chupanak and Pramod. The trip was organised by the very helpful and professional Shree in the Kathmandu office. Thanks all of you - it was hard work, it was cold, it was wonderful - a lot of laughs, some great food and a great adventure all round. Cheers, and here’s to the next time, Sarah S

We have had a really great time in Nepal, it was our first time there and the tour is perfect for it. We loved every activities and places where we stayed at night. So much to learn and to see, plus the food is delicious! A personal driver and a tour guide just for us two. We highly recommend Basecamp Adventure, Shree made sure everything was planned and great. Thank you again !

Very rewarding and challenging 19 day trek around the scenic Annapurna massif. Shree picked me up at the airport in KTM and dropped me to my hotel. There he introduced me to my guide for the trip Saroj and we did a quick inventory check and picked up some last minute items for the trip (crampons and down jacket etc). Saroj was very helpful throughout the trip, 19 days is a long time on the trail and he was always friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive, particularly on the really challenging days when the trekking was very physically taxing. We had plenty of laughs everyday and it was always fun and entertaining - even on the tough days. The trekking is superb, and the terrain varies wildly from alpine/evergreen/bamboo/rhododendron forests to dusty trails; to the snow covered Throng La Pass (starting at 04.30 with a temperature of -18 degrees Celsius and difficult weather conditions on the 5.5 hour descent). That day I relied heavily on Saroj’s guiding experience and knowledge to safely traverse the pass. Overall he was a great guide and I would highly recommend Saroj and Basecamp Adventure for any trek in Nepal. I would certainly avail of their services again if/when I return to Nepal.
