Everest Heli Flight - 01 Days

EBC Trek : Siblings Goal !! Sep 2018 EBC trek – an adventurous siblings trip whereby myself, my sis & bro – a memorable tale conquering the ever famous world”s highest Mount Everest Base Camp on 13th Sept 2018 (7 days trek up, 3 days down). Access Nepal was a amazing company for trekking to Everest Base Camp. Ms Sadhana the travel advisor was great & professional in providing all the info we need. The trip was stunning, the trails, mountains, villagers & the views along the way was fantastic. We just can’t stop taking pictures. Our guide Devman Tamang was absolutely incredibly friendly & extremely knowledgeable of EBC, the trails & food intake (he always ensured our food was on time). Thanks much Devman, you have made my dream & the trek excellent to attained my goal reaching EBC, without you I’m not certain would have made it to EBC with energy to spare. Not forgetting to our super strong porters Gopal & Balkumar, the real heroes. They deserve all the credits as going up & down the mountain with our heavy load bags, really incredible. They both always been positive on the trek with their big smile. This journey comprises of not only test on body strength but self endurance, purity of soul and mind which formed the main contributors to the success of our ad mission. Nevertheless, the trekking with my siblings was full of joy, laughter and creating moments that would be cherished by us forever.!! Thank you Access Nepal Tour & Trekking for the beautiful experience. NAMASTE ! Kamalesh (Singapore)

Highly recommended – Best company to trek with for Everest Base Camp and Kala Pathar. Sep 2018 My wife did plenty of research before booking with Access Nepal as there are hundreds of companies offering similar services but nothing compares to the professionalism and efficiency this company delivers on.

The first point of contact was Sadhana who was always on the ball when it came to responding to any queries we had – prompt and to the point.

We arrived at Kathmandu and was greeted by our guide Jeevan (Dr JB as we now call him J) and his driver who took us to our hotel for the overnight stay and trip briefing before we flew out to Lukla the following morning.

The following morning we were picked up at 5am and were introduced to a fellow trekker Uma (our adopted Asian sister) who was going to join us for the same trip.

We all arrived at Lukla Airport and started our trek to Phakding and onwards to Namchee for the first part of our journey where we were greeted by our porters Gopal (Baby G) and Bir – two really nice, funny and honest boys.

As our journey started, we instantly bonded like Superglue and within hours we were laughing, joking and pratting around for the whole twelve days – it was more of a road trip on foot with friends that we’d known forever. We even had fellow trekkers on route always envious of the fact that we were always in good spirit and wanting to tag along with us!

During the trip we were blessed with excellent weather from start to finish and everything was regimented but also flexible so we could complete the trek in a timely fashion allowing any issues that may arise on route.

Our guide Dr JB has done this route countless times, along with Gopal and Bir and they really do know their stuff. They have seen people complete this and also people who think “they” know best, who have not completed this – so the best advice I can give would be to listen to what they say if you wish to complete this trek 🙂

I also wanted to thank Sadhana, Dr JB, Baby Gopal, Bir and Uma for making my wife’s 40th birthday really special on Base Camp by carrying a cake from Labouche and delivering it to EBC in one piece and joining us for photos and a little floss dancing at base camp!

One of the best holidays we’ve had with an excellent company.

Tips for travellers we learnt:

· Just be aware that cost to charge mobile phones/ camera batteries/ charging packs can add up on route to EBC (350 – 1000 rupees per charge) as not all tea houses will have charging points in the bedrooms, so if you are working to a budget, invest in solar panel chargers or buy more battery packs if your life depends on it!!

· Hot showers will cost about 350-500 rupee depending on location, but highly recommended not to shower to avoid getting a cold/chest infection.

· Water bottles can be up to 400 rupees if you’re in an area where you cant drink local water so just shop around in the village instead of buying from the tea house or use water purification tablets if possible.

· Look after your porters and guide and they will look after you! 🙂
