Everest Base Camp Trekking

I did a lot of research online before choosing this agency. Ever since I was 10 years old, I had dreamed of seeing Everest and reaching its Base Camp. I don’t regret a single thing. Puru was amazing in organizing everything, always available, kind and helpful. I made a few special requests along the way, and he was always more than willing to help. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you, Puru. Lastly, I would like to say a few words about Sitaram, our “guide”. I put that word in quotation marks because simply calling him our guide doesn’t do him justice. I think I will remember the 12 days we spent with him for a very long time. He is a wonderful person first and foremost, as well as a great professional. In the end, when the time came to say goodbye, I got emotional. I’m so happy I was able to share my dream with him. Thank you so much, Sitaram, for everything.

For the 4th time, I asked Above Himalayan Trekking to prepare a trek for 3 people for us. This time to go to Everest Base Camp, everything went well from the pickup at the hotel to the return after 12 days of trekking. The guide Surej was competent and friendly. I therefore recommend this agency.

This is my 3rd trip with Above the Himalaya and Puru. Each trip with Puru has exceeded expectation with the quality of the guides, porters and attention to detail. We were a team of 5 trekker and our ages were all above 67 years of age with the oldest being 73. We are all experienced hikers and trekker and our plan was to trek up the Khumbu Valley to the Cho La pass to Gokyo to the Renjo La pass to return to Lukla. However, the weather altered our plans as Cyclone Montha blanketed the country in rain at lower elevations and significant snowfall at the upper elevations. Due to the weather, no one was trekking and everyone was staying put in their current location during the storm. All the passes were closed due to the deep snow. We were in Namche when the storm was blanketing the country. This is where Above the Himalaya really shines is in the ability to adapt to the changing conditions and our safety. In conversation with our lead guide, we decided to alter our route to trek through the Gokyo valley to reach Gokyo and then do the Renjo La pass. Sitaram our lead guide and Dhurba our assistant guide was both attentive to the changing conditions and always kept a keen eye for how we were doing and feeling on the trek. The pacing was excellent as none of us had any hint of altitude sickness as we reached a maximum elevation of 5,365m. Having trekked and hiked all over the world with different tour companies, Puru’s company is simply the best. The communications, focus on safety, the guides and staff, the accommodations, and the food are all amazing. All you have to do is focus on the beauty of the mountains, enjoy the joyfulness of the Nepali people and have fun exploring the trails. I am planning my next trip with Puru for 2027 as there is no other trekking company to match Puru’s level of service.

My friends and I just completed the EBC trek. From the time I met Puru at the Canada Place trade show in Vancouver BC, Canada I felt comfortable going to Nepal. His communications via WhatsApp were seamless answering all our questions. Everything went exactly according to plan. Our guide Suresh was amazing. He took very good care of us the whole time. From guiding us to making sure we had everything we needed to be happy. The food the whole way up and back was amazing! 5 ⭐️. Our 2 porters were great as well. I have a whole new respect and appreciation for what they do. They are the true hero’s to what we can do as a team. We chose the basic trek the lodging was to be expected. If I was to do again I would choose the luxury trek. The hotels in Kathmandu at the Hotel Aloft and the Hotel Lo Mustang were top notch as well as the buffets. Highly recommend this local company!

I hiked to Everest Base Camp with the guide company Above the Himalayas. From the first moment I received information and follow-up from Puru. The RAM guide was excellent very attentive that everything went well. I received support in the logistics of flights, lodging and food and road guide. Thank you for your service, Alex Osorio MEXICO

The staffs were very helpful and nice. There was some hiccups during the trekking but the reaction and arrangement by the staffs were super efficient. The trekking was fantastic. The sceneries were amazing.

Amazing experience and excellent service. The agency, guide and porters were very helpful and attentive, allowing us the best and safest journey despite the unforeseen weather conditions in the mountain.

Fantastic and reliable company based out of Kathmandu. Puru the owner was accessible and we had zoom Meetings even prior to our departure. Hotels, guides tea houses and all details were well thought out and finely executed and crafted. We were a large group with varying ability and the guides Mae sure all were well taken care. Puru was excellent in responding to a crisis with altitude in our group. This experience alone sets this company apart ! I am Planning on more expeditions with Mr. Puru’s company and guidance.
