Breathtaking 15 days to EBC and Gokyo Valley. - Being a group of three, we went onto a 15 day trip. First Everest Base camp, then over the Cho La Pass into the Gokyo valley. Organisation was perfect, and the company was helpful and competent in answering all of our question ahead of the trip. The chosen track left enough time to accommodate to the high altitute levels, allowing for breathtaking views onto the mountains. What we liked most were crossing Cho La Pass and the view from Gokyo Ri onto the wealth of 4 mountains 8.000+ metres high. Our guide Rabin was most friendly, funny, but always on top of things. He was always at our side, and we felt taken care of. He listened to what we had in mind and built it into the day's planning. Our porters, Deep & Ram, were most reliable and friendly. Accommodations were simple yet clean, and food was great. In a nutshell: perfect organisation, we would always repeat.

Lukla>EBC> Chola Pass>Gokyo>Gokyo Ri>Khumjung>Lukla 17day trek - An Amazing Guide Rabin Magar, Porters Tara and Dugar. Rabin was thoughtful, helpful, encouraging. Our pick up and drop off by Adventure Bound went beyond expectations-our flight was late arriving and there was a two hour hold up going through arrivals and our man was still standing out in the heat waiting (twice) two different flights. Rabin always tried his hardest to get us good accommodation and help us when choosing our meals. We walked this from 18 October 2019 and we had three places we stayed two nights for acclimatisation - beautiful weather - snow from Dingbouche through to base camp and back to Lobouche-stunning days and views. Rabin was also very mindful that we were not young and gave us the attention of someone very mindful of his responsibilities. Well done RABIN MAGAR and ADVENTURE BOUND pvt.

Gokyo Valley Trek with Ramon - We had wonderful days in the Himalaya. Everything was perfectly organized. Communication with Mr. Laxman was very easy. He organised all the permits, flights etc. We had pickup at the airport and stayed one night in a good mid class hotel in Kathmandu. The next 10 days we spent in the mountains. Ramon, our guide, has a very good knowledge about the mountains, the people and was always very helpful. Communication was very easy, he speaks english very well. I would definitely recommend Adventure Bound and i am looking forward for our next trip :)

Trekking to Gokyo Ri - The preparations went smoothly. I was picked up by my guide Robin from the airport. After collecting additional gear, i went to sleep. The next morning we flew to Lukla and started our trekking. Al guesthouses were nice and the food was good. Finally we reached the top of the Gokio Ri. Beautiful. I wil never forget! Back in Lukla, we had to wait two days, because of bad weather. Adventure Bound and Robin have done everything to get us down as soon as the weather permitted. I really would recomment you to go with Adventure Bound. Good organisation and very good guides.
