Everest Base Camp Trek - We did the EBC trek with Icicles, I couldn't recommend them more to anyone wishing to partake in any of their trips. The trip was absolutely phenomenal, everything was planned and carried out brilliantly to ensure the whole expedition ran smoothly. Indira was very supportive, helpful and informative throughout, as well as welcoming us on our arrival into Kathmandu. Our Guide Prabin was excellent making sure that we were well throughout and was very knowledgeable of the surroundings which he pointed out to us along the way. We had an amazing time and thoroughly enjoyed our trip. Thank you Indira, Prabin and the whole Icicles team!!

One of the best experiences of my life with great friends and an amazing Team to guide us. - This was the greatest adventure I have ever been on. Icicles did an amazing job from start to finish. We had the most accommodating guide in Prakash and his team of Praveen and others. Prakash slotted into our team just like one of us and looked after us impeccably. The whole team did a phenomenal job and I can’t speak highly enough of them. Thank you Icicles for the best experience.

EBC Trek - Absolutely fantastic trip, organised seamlessly from start to finish! Prakash was our guide and Dekesh was our assistant guide and I can’t praise either of them more strongly. They made us feel safe, ensuring all of the 10 people in the group made it to Everest Base Camp! I would highly recommend icicles for their professionalism and good communication. An exhausting, memorable and incredible trek.

Such an incredible tour company, highly recommend! - Icicles were amazing, not a bad word to say about the whole trip. The team ran it incredibly smoothly from start to finish. TN was an amazing guide, knowledgeable about the mountains and always brought a smile to everyone's faces even when it was tough! I couldn't recommend booking with them enough!

Summiting Everest Base Camp: A Journey of Gratitude with Icicles, Prakash the Card Shark, and a Team of Sherpas - Very well organised experience trekking to EBC with Icicles. We cannot thank Prakash our lead guide, Praveen and the rest of the Sherpas enough. This was an experience of a lifetime and these words cannot describe how accomplished we all feel. It felt so much more being led by this organization and team. Prakash's personal touch, from playing cards(he’s a card shark) with us to sharing our jokes(trip advisor review), 😂 truly added warmth to this adventure. Well done and thank you for the memories.

Everest Base Camp Heli Trek - Having just completed our 11 day trek, thought exhausted, I can definitely say it was one of the most exhilarating and memorable trips I have ever done ! We were guided by Prakash and three porters, led by Pravine. At every step of the way Prakash was there to explain and assist. By the end of the holiday we had made a true friend. Icicles was simply brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble and the owners were there at the start and end of the trip to personally see us as well as working behind the scenes throughout the trek. When the weather closed in at the end of the trip they worked tirelessly to coordinate our helicopter to meet us as we walked down mountain to get below the cloud. We were whisked off the mountain in time for our return flights to uk. Truly an exciting end to the whole trip. I cannot recommend highly enough !

Adventure of a lifetime!!! - My partner and I had several challenges before we even started our trek due to flight delays and lost luggage. The team at Icicles were fantastic and ensured we still got to set off on our dream trek. We can't thank the team enough for everything did for us. Special shout out to Ram, our head guide, who was amazing throughout. Unfortunately, my partner got ill with the altitude a week into the trek, but we were in safe hands, and the team made sure we looked after. Although the trip certainly didn't turn out how we expected the team at Icicles were absolutely fantastic and made our trip special, I would give 10 out of 5 if I could. Thank you once again!!!

Everest Base Camp - Trekked to EBC in April and highly rate the experience that I had with Icicles company for this trek. Our guide Ram Gurung was friendly, welcoming, professional and extremely knowledgeable in his job throughout the 2 weeks. He always went above and beyond to make our experience a remarkable one and he made my first experience in Nepal unforgettable. Indira and the team were fantastic, easily reachable for any questions and were extremely efficient in arranging flights in and out of Lukla. I had an unforgettable experience and would not hesitate to book with this company again.
