ROWLING VALLEY TREK

  Very well organized trekking and my guide Netra took great care of me the whole time. Made a last minute decision to take a heli out to enjoy the view... read more and they went all out to ensure that I managed to get a slot for the heli shuttle. Thanks so much!

  We did Mt. Everest Base Camp, the three high passes, and Gokyo lakes with Nepal Hiking Team in April 2022.

I initially reached out to Ganga in April... read more 2021, remembering the positive feedback I heard from fellow overlanders while in India in 2017. I must have emailed Ganga 100 times between April 2021 and April 2022. We ended up delaying our trek from October 2021 to April 2022 due to covid, and I had so many questions. I wanted to make sure I didn't forget anything and was as prepared as possible. We hadn't traveled in nearly 3 years, and I was pretty nervous about many things. Ganga always got back to me within 24 hours, and was always patient, thorough, and polite, putting any concerns I had at ease.

When we arrived to Nepal (our flights were delayed in-transit, fortunately Ganga was able to track us since my means of communication was limited), we were greeted at the airport by Balaram. We couldn't have asked for a more kind or friendly person to welcome us to Nepal, he was perfect!

Over the next day we learned more details about the trek with a briefing from Ganga, and got to tour Kathmandu according to what NHT arranged. We enjoyed the local guides NHT arranged for us, and the sites. And of course the cuisine! We love Dal Bhat!!!

We were happy to get away from the hustle of the city, and on the amazing flight to Lukla the following morning. We got so lucky with our flights- so many times they are delayed due to weather, and we got in and out just as scheduled.

Our guide, Ram, and porter, Neema, were absolutely outstanding!!! We had gone to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro in 2019, and everything we read about Everest Base Camp said it was easier. Base Camp was more gradual than the final push to the top of Kili, however those three high passes were something else- we had no idea how much of a challenge that would end up being. Fortunately, we paid extra to be in a group by ourselves, and could really take it slow with individual attention from our helpers. Ram and Neema made sure we were safe, often holding onto or spotting one of us through the rockiest parts of the passes, when we went downhill. We had contemplated not doing the 2nd and 3rd pass after the first one. Fortunately, thanks to Ram and Neema, we made it through all of them without getting hurt, and, were able to enjoy the true highlight of the trip- majestic views of the Gokyo lakes, at Gokyo Ri, and from Renjo La Pass. Neema handled our luggage with such ease that he usually would go ahead of us, put the bags down, and come back to help. Sometimes he helped while carrying our luggage! We truly could not have done this without Ram and Neema. We have them to thank for making this experience of a lifetime successful, and something we will cherish memories of, forever.

Wow, 2+ months later we're still in complete awe of what we accomplished. The views are out of this world. Despite it having been the greatest challenge of our lives, we want to go back to Nepal and hike Annapurna Circuit with Tilicho Lake in the next 2 years. We will only consider Nepal Hiking Team, and already look forward to it, even though we know it will be the second greatest challenge of our lives.

  Excellent from the get go. Used these guys in March to climb loboche and once again just now to do Island Peak. Requested the same guide - Arjun - who... read more is fantastic. These guys have amazing contacts throughout the trek, climb, airport and in KTM so really made things easy. The porter that was used was also a great guy! Nima always happy to help. Would use again in a heart beat.

  I cannot express how much I loved this trip and how amazing the Nepal Hiking Team was! We do the EBC, Chola Pass, and Gokyo. Everything was amazing from the... read more scenery, to the itinerary, to the care we received. Our guide Bhim was so kind and very professional and knowledgeable. Our porters were friendly as well. I would recommend them to anyone!!! We felt very well taken care of and would go with them again the next time! :)

  We had an unbelievable adventure completing the Mardi Himal trek January 2023. Our guide Raj and porter Rajesh were professional, fun, energetic, and knowledgable about not only the trek we... read more were on, but about many others in the area. The whole team prepared us ahead of time and answered all of our questions so we were prepared with the correct equipment for the winter months. We were actually over prepared if anything. The whole experience was amazing from start to finish. This was a wonderful experience and I would definitely recommend using Nepal Hiking Team to any of my friends or family. A must do during a trip to Nepal!!!

  My wife and I did a private Everest Base Camp + Gokyo Lakes trek in April 2022. We were recommended Nepal Hiking Team by a friend and they were incredibly... read more helpful from start to finish. They were very responsive when ever we had any questions before our trip, and everything was handled very professionally. They also helped us with other logistics in Nepal once our trek had finished.

We had an absolutely incredible time on our trek and would recommend it to anyone. This trip has been on our bucket list for a long time and it didn’t disappoint. A lot of this was down to our guide, Dinesh. He was extremely knowledgable about the region and the different mountains etc., and was always very cheerful and was great at raising morale! When my wife suffered from a slight headache after reaching EBC Dinesh was super helpful and was able to quickly come up with a slightly different route meaning she could recover but we still ended up completing the trek. If you get the chance to be guided by Dinesh then you will definitely have a great time!
