The best experience of our lives!

Coming into this trek, we were all a little nervous; but, we have never been more blessed by a group of people. Our guide, Suman was the best thing to ever happen to our group here in Nepal. His knowledge, attitude, and character was central to our positive experience. We never felt unsafe or not taken care of. Our porters, Yogesh and DP, became some of our best friends. There was never a spare moment without laughter with our group. Throughout our trek, we conquered some of the highest mountain passes in the world and our guide, Suman, was always looking out for us. He helped us maintain a pace that we could recover from at such a high altitude, but also matched our fitness. Thank you so much Nepal High Trek for giving us the most amazing experience. I would recommend anyone who wants to tackle any journey in Nepal with Nepal High Trek, and hopefully with Suman and the boys! Please use them for your future journeys!

Response from the operator: Dear Mya We highly appreciate your excellent feedback on TripAdvisor and thank you so much for sharing an unforgettable experience with us. It's great to hear from you that you had a wonderful journey with the Nepal High Trek team throughout the Everest Three High Passes Trek. We hope you'll be back in Nepal for your next adventure and can't wait to see you in Nepal. With Best Regards Nepal High Trek And Expedition

Three High Passes with an amazing team!!

Our experience doing the Three High Passes was incredible! Our guide Suman was so knowledgeable about the area. We felt safe and comfortable the entire time. Yoges and Mr. Depe, our porters, were an amazing addition to our team! We could not have done it without them! I would highly recommend working with Nepal High Trek & Expedition!

Great trip

Great trip that was well organised. Accommodation was good along the trek and views were unbeatable! Our group was small which made it easy to get to know the other people on the trip which was good as a solo traveller. 11 days was the perfect length trip and the guide and porters from Nepal High Trek Expedition were friendly and helpful. Overall an amazing experience that was great value for money.

Response from the operator: Thank you Dear Rio, We highly appreciate your excellent review on TripAdvisor and thank you so much for sharing an unforgettable experience with us.

Best guides in Nepal

I had the best time on the EBC trek with Buddhi and Buddha, they were a great support and motivation during the whole trek. Always in a good mood and always so helpful. They definitely wanted everyone to reach basecamp, which was very motivating! Would definitely recommend them. If I ever travel back to Nepal, I will for sure book my next trip with them again!

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 $1799 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 336 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 87 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 125 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 15. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 336-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Everest Base Camp Trek?

+

Around 44 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 336-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.
