Cheryl Tso2024-12-08 2024 Everest Base Camp Trek I‘m grateful that Nepal Intrepid Treks and Expedition arranged such great Everest Base Camp itinerary. They offered a team of expert professional trekking guides and porters to guide us throughout the trip. All we had to do was enjoy spectacular views of the highest mountains, including Mount Everest, Mount Lhotse, Mount Nuptse and Mount Ama Dablam among others. Because Nepal Intrepid Treks and Expedition helped us to handle everything during the trek, we could acclimatize gradually, and successfully reach the the Khumbu glacier and Everest Base Camp. Thank you all for making my dream come true! Ya Ting H2024-12-08 Impressive and memorable experience The staff took good care of us and guided us to the magnificent EBC!!!

Annapurna Circuit Trek was a dream trip that I recently completed with Nepal Intrepid Treks. The trip went outstanding and I couldn’t have been more impressed with their service. From the first day of consultation to the final day of the trip, everything was so smooth, stress free and enjoyable. First of all, I would like to thank them for recommending me – the Annapurna Circuit Trek. I was looking forward to a challenging trek that would cover all the aspects of Nepal, i.e. mountains, hills, valleys, rivers and cultural diversity and the trek had it all. My itinerary stood out to be the best. The trek duration, trekking days, everything was perfect. They really took a time to understand what kind of traveler I was and customized my itinerary accordingly. From airport transfers, hotels, accommodation, food to guidance and other services, everything was beyond my expectation. They were super professional. Every time I called them, they attended me with prompt and helpful responses. They were patient, helpful, cheerful and offered a great travel experience as per my budget, time and interest. Every time, they were ensuring if I am happy with their service or not. They welcomed any kind of feedback and were ready to implement changes as per the feedback.To sum up, my trip was fabulous; full of adventures and heavenly views. I feel short of words to describe the beauty that Nepal possesses. The mountains, hills, villages, people, everything here is authentic. Nepal is a place to visit at least once in a lifetime. If you are interested in travelling to Nepal or are making plans, I would recommend you to take service from Nepal Intrepid Treks. They made my trip and I am hundred percent sure that they will make your trip too with some fantastic deals.

Julia C2024-03-04 I'm back in Nepal again... I'm back in Nepal again...This time I climbed the Mardi Himal hiking route.1,770 M to 4,200 M climbFishtail Peak still appeared in the thick clouds which was very impressive. Aeris L2024-03-02 Unforgettable hiking trip in Nepal The Nepali tour leader is very considerate and will pay attention to every move of the group members and provide assistance at any time.I had a great time on this trip, and I would like to thank the staff for their assistance and care along the way. Manish Pradhan2024-02-24 Mardi Trip - best value, quality support & guide, worthwhile trip I took a 4 day hike to Mardi Himal while on a family trip to Nepal. I wasn’t sure of the route at first. It turned out to be best decision. The upclose view of Annapurna South, Hiunchuli and Fishtail was unbelievable, & out of this world. We stayed at Badal Danda for couple of nights which provided the 360 view of the mountains on the north and pokhara valley, poonhill area on the south. You could do the hike 2-3 days but if you really want to soak in the views and get mesmerized by it, you might take the full 4-5 days route.Intrepid guide Suman Gurung was a real professional. He really understood the route and had great connections with the locals which made the trek extra special. Suman bhai brought a calm demeanor, encouraging & supportive attitude when I was struggling a bit during few uphill hike. Overall, I really enjoyed the hike and doing it with Suman bhai made this trip a memorable one. I would recommend Intrepid team and this route to any beginner looking to explore what Himalayas has to offer. 悦 高2023-12-17 Extremely Amazing EBC Trekking Experience great experience Everest base camp trekking with this company, our guide Bheg and Shiva, also porter. We had a great time enjoyed the experience with them. And arrived back safely! Definitely recommend this company, guide and porter! S B2023-11-09 EBC trek I completed the EBC trek solo with my guide Hem and porter Ram. It was an amazing experience though the trip had a few challenges: our flights to Lukla were cancelled due to poor weather and I developed a chest infection part way up the ascent. What was impressive was how the team (largely Hem and Santa) managed to quickly problem solve and find alternatives (e.g., hired a jeep to drive us to an alternate route to the trail) and connected me with stellar medical care. Despite these setbacks, we still managed to reach base camp! The flexibility of this team is quite noteworthy and it was clear they are experienced in handling these kinds of issues.The tea houses I stayed in were great and they served delicious food. I was never cold at night due to the really warm sleeping bag they rented to me. I was always encouraged to hike at my own pace, and to make sure I was eating and drinking enough. Communication with the team was excellent throughout and I felt well supported. The team was very punctual, responsive, and reliable. Hem is a fun, upbeat, thoughtful and friendly guide who was so helpful on this trek. He added personal touches to the trip like booking my favourite tea house in Namche on our descent. He and Ram have incredible work ethics which should be highlighted. They were always available, and when I was sick, Hem (and later Santa) accompanied me to the doctor and sat with me, saying all the right things to make me feel better. Hem is a good photographer as well, and took some beautiful pictures of us along the way. Because of my illness, I ended up having to cancel my ABC trek which was supposed to happen afterward. Again, the team (Santa and Hem) were able to pivot quickly and developed a sightseeing tour of Pokhara that was really fun, and salvaged my vacation. Overall, this was a great experience and I’m already thinking of coming back for more!
