    Did the luxury EBC trek. From start to finish peregrine made life easy! I have done a few other treks so I have a good baseline for operators. Peregrine handled all the details and really let me just enjoy the trek. My guide Kamal was awesome / very attentive and helpful with lots of great information. I never had to worry about anything! Since I was solo it was important to be with a guide I trusted and liked, Kamal was the best.

    My experience with Peregrine Treks on the Everest Base Camp Trek, culminating in a helicopter return, was nothing short of spectacular. From the beginning, their team provided excellent support, ensuring a safe and enjoyable journey. The trek itself offered breathtaking views and challenging hikes that were rewarding in every sense. The highlight, without a doubt, was the helicopter ride back, providing us with awe-inspiring aerial views of the Everest region that left us speechless. The accommodations and meals along the trek were well beyond expectations, contributing to an overall exceptional experience. Peregrine Treks' attention to detail, expert guides, and commitment to safety were commendable. Highly recommended for anyone looking to start this once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

    The Everest Base Camp Heli Trek was an unforgettable experience. The helicopter ride provided stunning views of the Himalayas, and the trek itself was challenging but rewarding. The guides were knowledgeable and supportive, and the accommodations were comfortable. I highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for a unique adventure.

    Peregrine Treks organized a very well-organized Everest Base Camp Trek with a Helicopter Return package; I would use them again. Nima, our tour guide, was extremely attentive and helpful throughout. The itinerary was well-planned, and the accommodations and food were ideal for our needs. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!

    “We honestly got lucky that our trip turned out so well. We didn’t do a ton of research and picked the first trek that matched our budget. The trek far exceeded our expectations! Everything was super smooth and Peregrine Treks was super easy to work with, from booking to finish! We are three American girls in our 40s and seriously loved our experience. Our guide, Mingma, made it even better. Ask for him if you’re able to!!!! We got sick before and trek and along the way and he was always there with whatever we needed to make it better. I could go on and on. Seriously book this trek, if you’re thinking about it!!! The only thing I’d add is that if you do the option without lunch and dinner, don’t bring your own! We packed our jetboil and 24 meals each thinking we had to provide our own meals. Don’t make the same mistake as us! You can purchase good food (even vegetarian) all the way up to base camp.”
