I completed the Everest Base Camp and 3 high passes Trek with Adventure  Nepal Eco Treks in November 2014 and it was a fantastic experience, made even better by the exceptional service provided by Devi Baral at Adventure  Nepal Eco Treks

 

“The best service Everest Base Camp and 3 High Passes Trek”

15th Mar, 2022


This was one of the best holidays I have ever had. Devi arranged everything for us perfectly- buses, taxis, planes, hotels, all went without a hitch. And the TREKKING- wonderful- I could have stayed in the mountains another week- stunning mountain scenery, lovely people, fabulous rhododendrons, fascinating glimpses of medieval farming in an unbelievable landscape- and thanks to our guide Kumar all taken at an easy pace, with great places to stop at the end of the day. Will definitely be back, and will definitely use Adventure Nepal Eco Treks again in future!!

Awesome trekking in Nepal
