unforgeable Everest Base Camp Trek - We spent about 18 days in Nepal focusing on the Everest Base Camp Trek in early April 2022. We had contacted to Mr. Kishor at Nepal Tour & Trekking Service P. Ltd after reading recommended reviews. It was an incredible adventure, great company and my guide Risav was simply the best on the trail! He was helpful, carrying and very professional. It's not an easy trail so you need a good guide there. We reached the Everest Base Camp and the Kala Patthar which is fabulous! All arrangements were perfectly made. The company was very accommodating from the beginning and Kishor, the owner, is a nice and helpful person, everything seems to run smoothly. A special Thanks goes to Risav and Pukar who accompanied us throughout the trip, taking care of our comfort and helping us navigate the difficulty. There is much to explore in Nepal and if you are looking for a solid starting point for your trip, don't hesitate to contact Kishor and his team.

Best trekking agency in Nepal - My long awaited dream of visiting Nepal and its mountains finally came true when I contacted Nepal Tour & Trekking Service P. Ltd for Everest Base Camp trekking. I found them to be one of the best trekking agency in Nepal. When I expressed my views and questions by email, Mr. Kishor answered them promptly and made all the arrangements. When I arrived at the Kathmandu airport, Mr. Kishor was waiting for me with a garland and I immediately felt that I was in good hands. From the very beginning of my trip, I was impressed with the attentiveness of my guide. My guide, Bikash, was always by my side and took care of my every need. All I had to do was tell Bikash and he would somehow make it work, even in the remote Himalayan villages where we stayed. He made sure all the arrangements were perfect, as I expected. Bikash always went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and was always there to help or lift my spirits when the trip became challenging for me. It was the best trip I could have asked for. For me, this trip was an unforgettable experience. I enjoyed every moment and will always remember the Mountain View and the special connection with the amazing Nepali culture and people. I loved my trip with Nepal Tour & Trekking Service Ltd and highly recommend them to anyone visiting Nepal. They do not disappoint.
