Seriously don’t consider any company other than this - I genuinely cannot describe the most amazing 11 days I had with our incredible incredible guide Prakash. He took care of absolutely anything that we needed along the way and always making sure we were dealing with the altitude gain. He is not only an amazing guide but now an even more amazing friend. He put up with all of our huffing and puffing, woke up at 4am to take us to KalaPatthar and listened to my endless questions about birds and yaks always answering with wisdom and a smile. We had all of our meals included in the tour price and we were even given an awesome celebratory 4-course dinner and certificate back in Kathmandu upon completion. After witnessing other companies and how they run with their clients along the EBC trek, I cannot recommend Isicles enough if you are even slightly considering hiking the Himalayas. I will be back!!

Everest Base Camp Trek - February 2025 - We had a fantastic 14 day trek to Everest Base Camp at the start of February. The pre-trip communication from Icicles Adventures was good, meeting us at our hotel at a convenient time to talk through the trek. The travel organisation was very good and our guide, Ram, was brilliant throughout, sharing information on the mountains and Buddhist culture as well as ensuring we had adequate breaks but could walk at our own pace too which meant the itinerary could be flexible too. The Acclimatisation Days in Namche, visiting Khunde Hospital, and Dingboche, summiting Nangkartshang hill, were particular highlights, alongside summiting Kala Patthar at sunset. When weather caused a problem getting back from Lukla, the icicles adventure team were able to organise a helicopter to travel back quickly too. The ethos of the company seems particularly good too, supporting and training female guides in this industry and our guide had been with the company for a number of years. Hopefully we will book another tour again with icicles adventures in future!

Everest Base Camp Trek - Our trip to Everest Base Camp (14 day all inc) was incredible. The trek itself was challenging but so rewarding and the views were incredible. Even though we went in off season we had gorgeous weather and stunning scenery and this meant we had a much quieter trail! Our guide Ram was the best, he got to know us and suggested excellent hikes on our Acclimatision Days suited to our likes and ambitions. Highlights included summitting Kalapatthar to watch sunset over Everest, visiting Kunde mountain hospital and summitting Nangkartshang along the way. Even though our good weather luck ran out on the very last day, Icicles Adventures were great in helping us organise a helicopter to get back to Kathmandu as all Lukla flights were cancelled. We felt well looked after and also challenged, a great trip thank you!

The most amazing experience made possible by a company I cannot recommend enough - I did the Everest Base Camp trip where we spent a night actually at base camp. This was the most amazing experience and unique experience - I cannot recommend it enough. Icicles Adventure were truly the best from start to finish. I felt so well looked after and our guides Lok and Sudip were always happy to help and answer questions. They were always checking in with how we were doing and feeling and taking our wellbeing very seriously - other groups with our tour companies tours did not appear as well looked after at all. The pace was kept slow and steady to keep us as well as possible and thankfully we all made it to base camp! Spending a night there was truly magical and something most other companies do not offer. The accommodation and food was absolutely fine (I had read some things before going generally and was worried but I think people forget where they are!) and we even got ‘Everest view’ rooms at one tea house - what a view to awaken to! The biggest thank you to our fantastic guides Lok and Sudip, and porters Pratik, Ramesh and Nabin - we are so grateful to you for getting us there safely! If you are thinking about going to basecamp would highly recommend booking with Icicles - they will not disappoint!

Most amazing trip - 5 star trip, from the moment we were met at the airport to the last dinner in Kathmandu everything was first class. We can’t praise Pooja, our guide, enough. She looked after us really well on the trek setting the pace, making sure we were drinking enough and plenty of resting stops. If you’re thinking about going to Everest Base Camp definitely book through Icicles Adventures

Amazing experience, with incredible views and people - The team where very organised with no issues at all on the trek. Our guide Raj Kumar Rai was so helpful and informative! The trek itself was very doable if you have a decent level of fitness. Raj was very attentive to our well being ensuring we took regular stops and drank lots of water as we gained allitude. Each day brought different views, each of which where incredible.
