A trip of a lifetime - What an amazing experience! I don’t think we really knew what we were getting into, but what an experience. Tej, the owner, was incredibly responsive and helpful in the months and weeks leading up to the trip and our guide, Laxman, was the best. He remained flexible and understanding when altitude got the best of us at times. Slowly, slowly, he encouraged us! Let’s not forget to give a huge shout out to Guiarmond, or G, as we called him, who carted all of our bags up and down and up and down the mountain. Thank you all for the top notch experience!! We hope to be repeat customers in future years!

EBC + Lobuche East - I did the trek to EBC + Lobuche East ascent with Mr. Tej Gurung's Nepal Alternative Treks and Expedition agency. I chose the agency because I wanted to be able to change the itinerary quickly during the trek. My decision was right. Right in Namche, we had to completely change the itinerary due to the weather conditions, specifically the large amount of snow at higher altitudes. Since Mr. Tej and his team have a huge amount of experience in organizing treks, changing the route, accommodation and support during the trek was no problem. I always felt completely safe with this team and I could only focus on my performance. I left all my worries to Mr. Tej and his team, which also included the guide Tek and the porter Prakash. I can only highly recommend the Nepal Alternative Treks and Expedition agency,

we enjoyed it and we will never forget our guide Brayen (yes yes I will ask)😄😄😄👍👍👍 - After arriving in Kathmandu, my son and I received all the services. The journey to EBC was a bit complicated first day because all flights to Lukla were cancelled but everything was solved to our satisfaction and we flew by helicopter. We enjoyed the whole trek and managed it successfully. Sometimes we had to deal with situations that the travel agency was not responsible for, but together we always found a solution to our satisfaction. I really appreciate flexibility and private access. We will definitely return to Nepal. Thanks for everything.

EBC + Cho La Pass + Gokyo Ri + Renjo La Pass - Had an awesome time with our guide Saroj, spent 15 days trekking up to Everest Base Camp, Cho La Pass, and Renjo La Pass. We were taken care of from the moment we landed in Kathmandu all the way to our departure. The company is very accomodating and flexible to your needs. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a stress free experience.

Everest Base Camp Trekking with breathtaking scenery in the midst of epic mountains - It was our first time in Nepal and at EBC. Mr Tej organised the trekking according to our wishes. The porter was great, but overall we were not completely satisfied with the guide, who had little knowledge of the flora and fauna and the Himalayan mountains. For us, it was an amazing experience overall. We are planning to take the NATT ACT in autumn. Communication with Mr Tej is very good and he keeps his promises. We were extremely lucky that the flights from Kathmandu to Lukla and back took place as planned.
