October 10, 2017 at 2:26 pmI did the Everest Base camp trek alone with mountain treks Nepal, I was recommended to them by a friend who had done the trek in 2014. From the moment I first contacted the company to inquire, Bharat was very quickly to respond and helpful. He would always respond in a timely manner whenever I had a question, especially given the circumstances of Nepal’s situation this past year. Being a solo younger female, it was so nice not to have to worry about anything and everything was handled. I stayed in Hotel Thamel Backpackers Home for my first few nights in Kathmandu which is an excellent hotel for me. it’s very beautiful. My guide was Akash and he took such great care of me during my stay and trek. The other people who were set to come on the trek with me unfortunately pulled out, so I ended up having essentially a private tour, and it wasn’t any less fun. The guides and the other people trekking from other companies at the same time made it very entertaining. I received a call from Bharat during my final few days of trekking to check up and see how I was doing it was really appreciated, which I thought was wonderful service. I don’t typically do a lot of all-inclusive tours but I’m definitely glad I spent the money and went with Mountain Treks Nepal. Thanks for a memorable experience!
Special thanks to Mr. Bharat and Akash. Hope see you again for another wonderful trek.
