EBC trek was made easy, memorable and joyful by Mission Summit team
Out interactions with Mission Summit helped us prepare for the EBC trek. Damu patiently answered all our doubts before the trek. All arrangements of airport pickup, hotel stay, food etc. was taken care by Damu. Once we landed in Kathamandu, Punam briefed about the trek itinerary. Then came the man who made the impossible into possible, Mr. Kamal Pandey, our guide, within minutes he took us into confidence that, we all can make it to EBC by just following his instructions. Yes, he was able read each one of our strength and weakness. Accordingly, he slowed down our trek and changed the itinerary to suite to our speed. Kamal use to keep us entertained by the mountain and places stories, use to play bollywood music . Best part is, he even guided what to eat and what to avoid in breakfast, lunch and dinner. He even helped with medicine for some us. The porters Narsingh and Damar were very helpful throughout the journey. Thank you Mission Summit team - Damu, Punam, Kamal Pandey. You are the most experienced and reliable.

Unforgettable Trek to Everest Base Camp with Damu and Mission Summit Trek Team 😍
I am 61 years old women from Guyana and living in USA, who came Nepal for Everest base camp trek with Mission Summit Treks. My dream comes true. I enjoyed every moments since my arrival to completion of my trek. Damu Mainali was my guide who treated so well that I feel myself as a part of his family. I remembered my slow pace of walking on which he waited me and helped to carry my bag. He suggested to drink plenty of water and good food that made me strong enough to reach base camp. His guidance and customization of the EBC trekking itinerary as according to my walking speed was awesome that I didnot suffer much on the challenging trail from Phakding to Namche and phungi Thanga to Tengboche. I thanks Punam Phuyal who treked with me. We did lot of fun on the trail. She was like my daughter but became my friend in every steps of my struggle. The memorable pictures and videos we made together will be a life time memory. I also want to thanks the porter Nir Kumar who carried my duffle bag and helped to serve food. I love the way he returned from tea house after putting the bags just to take us and help me to carry my day bag. I am so proud that I did EBC trek in my 60s. I always recommend mission Summit Treks and Expedition for the best trekking in Nepal. It is the best trekking company in Nepal that gives best services and friendly environment that touches my heart. I made a life time memory and suggest everyone to do trekking in Nepal with this company to make your dreams come true.

Easy and enjoyable EBC
Had an amazing experience during the trek. The mission summit team paid special attention to details during planning, during trecking and at the end as well to ensure we enjoy the trek and are safe as well. I highly appreciate the professional knowledge and experience of our chief gude Kamal Pandeyji. He guided and provided personal attention as required. Once I had knee issue while trecking and he ensured I was given right medication, and message to ensure I was ready for next day. Kamal and team went out of their way to help us with carrying our day luggage as well. Made sure we enjoyed delicious food on the way, again he supported by helping the cook as well. Kamalji was more of a friend who ensured we reached our goal of EBC on time. Special thanks to our bearers Narsing and Damar who were very humble and respectful, professionals. Damu as the lead of Mission summit is a very reliable and reasonable professional. Special thanks to him for answering all our questions (sometimes repeat questions as well) with lots of patience and smile. All in all I definitely recommend you to go with the team we were fortunate enough to have gone with for EBC... By doing EBD (Enjoy Before Dying). ☺️ Thanks - Kishore

Amazing Everest Base Camp Experience
Our trek to the Everest Base Camp was an unforgettable experience, and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing guide. He was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and supportive throughout the entire journey. He always made sure everyone felt safe, comfortable, and motivated, no matter how difficult the day was. His positive attitude, patience, and genuine care for the group made the trek even more special. I’m truly grateful for this experience and would highly recommend him to anyone planning a trek in Nepal!

The impossible task made possible for me
It was a great experience. I was bot confidant of achieving it, due to my over weight and fitness. But, with the help of our guide Kamal pandey and also supportive porters, i was able to achieve it and i am really thankful to the team. The guide was very knowledgeable and also motivating. He knows the geography very well and also understands the need of different trekkers. I am really happy about the entire service. Thanks to mission summit & Kamal Pandey.

Why this scores 85
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Everest Base camp Trek: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kathmandu.
How much does Everest Base camp Trek cost?
+
Prices start at $1500 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kathmandu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Everest Base camp Trek take?
+
Plan for about 288 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kathmandu is not rushed.
Is Everest Base camp Trek worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 85 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 81 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kathmandu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Everest Base camp Trek?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Everest Base camp Trek suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 18. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 288-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Everest Base camp Trek?
+
Around 28 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kathmandu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kathmandu and add a light layer if any part of the 288-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Everest Base camp Trek start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kathmandu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Kathmandu?
+
On Outty we rank every Kathmandu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Kathmandu Sightseeing Tour | UNESCO World Heritage sites, Classic Everest Base Camp Trek, Manaslu Circuit Trek. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Kathmandu?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Kathmandu?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
