Mia· March 10th, 2020My experience trekking EBC was the adventure of a lifetime thanks to Himalaya Heart Treks and my guide Arjun! He always prioritized my safety, always made sure I was feeling good, and booked the best guesthouses who treated me like family. Arjun helped carry my belongings and taught me about Nepali culture and language during our walks. Communication was thorough, airport pickup/drop off was seamless, and I always felt like I was in good hands, as this was my first major trek. Hari even helped me get my equipment ready in Kathmandu before departing to Lukla. Overall, I would recommend Himalaya Heart Treks to anyone looking to experience the beautiful Nepali culture and the most beautiful scenery in the world with experienced guides. I had an amazing time, can’t wait for the next one!Show moreTrip date: February 2020- DSDildeep· February 24th, 2020I had a really good time on my EBC trek, my guide Arjun was very helpful, as he helped carry some of my things and told me exactly what was needed as we climbed up. He even paid for my lunches and dinner on the road, and I paid him back at the end of each day to make it easier for me. It was a tiring journey and quite cold at night, but I was very lucky with the weather being clear the whole time, so I had an amazing view of Everest. I highly recommend booking with Himalaya Heart Treks & Expeditions as they make everything easy and convenient, such as airport pickups and accommodation in mountains.Show more

The scenes are amazing throughout the entire trek, only getting better each day. We went during off-peak time (early December), so it wasn't as packed as most other times. Above all, our guide, Dripendra, was beyond amazing. He catered to our pace, whether it be faster or slower, educated us about difference sites along the trek, and was very enjoyable to hang around.Show moreHimalaya Heart Treks & Expedition[P] Ltd commented on this reviewDear Neyavan Suthaharan's We thank you, first of all, for managing your valuable time to write such kind words about us. and Everest base camp trek It is a pleasure to see that you feel this way about our service and the adventure we had together.

- Emily· December 5th, 2019My mother and I just got home from a 2-week trip to hike the Everest Base Camp track. We were guided by Hari, who came strongly recommended via multiple reviews online and was just as fabulous in person. From touching down in Kathmandu, the team at Himalaya Heart were waiting for us with Marigold flowers to show us some true Nepalese culture. Our first day we were taken around Thamel, to ensure we had all the equipment required. We did bring most things as described on the packing list given to us before departure however it was handy to go around with our guide to make sure we had the final things before we departed. From the morning we left out hotel, our guide Hari, constantly made sure we were comfortable and well informed on what was going on ahead of us. We were fortunate because they managed to organise us a helicopter from Kathmandu to Lukla, ensuring we had a safe and easy trip up the hill. Each night our accommodation provided to us along the trek was fabulous, with Hari continuously ensuring we have the best options provided to us. Upon mealtime, he would also check with the chef's at each hotel to see what produce was the freshest to ensure we were always eating quality and healthy food. Over the course of the next 8 days, we trekked from Lukla to EBC while maintaining a solid pace and feeling very strong. The guidance provided to us from our guide Hari definitely helped us achieve our goals of reaching base camp. If you are contemplating booking with Himilaya Heart Treks, I would strongly consider you do because my mother and I cannot recommend them strongly enough. Thank you for making the trek one we will remember for a lifetime.Show moreHimalaya Heart Treks & Expedition[P] Ltd commented on this reviewDear Emily Bamford's We thank you, first of all, for managing your valuable time to write such kind words about us. and It is a pleasure to see that you feel this way about our service and the adventure we had together.

- JJoeWilkinson· December 1st, 2019The trek itself was amazing and was made much better with Himalayan Heart. Everything was perfectly organised and put in place prior to our arrival for example to the tea houses. Arjun was an excellent guide who is friendly, prepared, professional and an absolutely pleasure to have done the walk with. Hari took us out for dinner after we had gotten back from the trek to see how things were and see if we wanted to do any more activities during our time in Nepal (we opted for white water rafting). Big shout out to Ram too our porter whom always had a smile and arrived to our next destination much earlier than us! Couldn’t recommend Himalayan Heart enough and I am keen to go back to Nepal with them!Show moreHimalaya Heart Treks & Expedition[P] Ltd commented on this reviewDear JoeWilkinson's We thank you, first of all, for managing your valuable time to write such kind words about us. and It is a pleasure to see that you feel this way about our service and the adventure we had together.

Trip date: November 2019 - Tony· November 24th, 2019So pleased to have found Himalaya Heart and based on feedback on sites like this chose them for our trek. We could not have been better looked after from start to finish, proved to be such a good decision to use this local business run by guides rather than one of the big companies. It was just myself and my son and we wanted to go ourselves rather than in a big group. Thakur was responsive and helpful with Emails before the trek which helped us with planning, what kit to bring etc. We were met at the airport by Milan and from that moment Himalaya Heart looked after us perfectly. Our guide Arjun I had already read the great reviews of, and he was fantastic, we had total faith in him and he made the trip run so smoothly. He was our guide, companion, cards and chess opponent, waiter, doctor and always had the next leg planned and teahouse booked. He looked after me when I got sick at Lobuche and altered our plans so that we took a rest day there to recover, and then did Kala Patthar in a day and back from Lobuche meaning we had the summit to ourselves, which was simply magical. Our ever smiling porter Ram (or Super-Ram as we came to describe him), was brilliant also, always beating us to our destination despite carrying both our duffle bags. Amazing respect for these guys. At the end of the trek Hari took us out for dinner in Kathmandu which was a very nice touch. We had some time left so booked a White Water rafting trip through Hari which was perfectly organised too. Milan, who had met us at the airport on our arrival, also took us to the airport when the time came to leave. Never I have had such amazing customer care, and am so happy I chose to support a local growing business run by guides, I wish them all the success they deserve, and when we return we will for sure be booking with them again. My son wants to bring his mates back and do Island Peak, and I may see if I can persuade my wife to come and do the Annapurna Panorama trip (Hari's recommendation). For a first time visitor to Nepal all I can say is I am so pleased that we went, it exceeded all my expectations, and Himalaya Heart made it so easy (well, apart from walking up the big hills, that bit was still hard).Show moreHimalaya Heart Treks & Expedition[P] Ltd commented on this reviewHello Tony Wilkinson's We thank you, first of all, for managing your valuable time to write such kind words about us.

- JJohnG· June 6th, 2019We had an excellent trek to Everest Base Camp and fly out Helicopter from ghorepche in April with Hari. He was very attentive and ensured our comfort and safety throughout the trek. He provided information and facts about all areas we visited and was happy to answer all of our questions before and during the trip. He made sure that the whole trip ran smoothly with no issues for which we are very grateful! He ensured that we trekked at a suitable pace to allow for acclimatisation and included good hikes on acclimatisation days to help with this.

Asked on October 26th, 2024I have done hiked the Inca Track in Peru and found it easy (4days) carying 12kg, How much harder is hiking to Base camp? Do you have a recommended packing list? And if we don't have the equipment can we hire it?
![Himalaya Heart Treks & Expedition[P] Ltd](//cdn.tourradar.com/s3/op/206x150/Himalaya_Heart_Treks_Expedition_p_ltd-a0fa.png "Himalaya Heart Treks & Expedition[P] Ltd")
Himalaya Heart Treks & Expedition[P] Ltd Operator•Written October 2024Hiking to Everest Base Camp is considered a challenging trek, primarily due to altitude, weather, and terrain. Altitude: The trek reaches elevations of around 5,364 meters (17,598 feet). This high altitude can lead to altitude sickness, so acclimatization is essential. Duration: The trek typically takes about 12 to 14 days round trip, requiring endurance and stamina. Terrain: The trail includes steep ascents and descents, rocky paths, and sometimes challenging weather conditions, including rain and snow. You can hire some gear in Kathmandu like sleeping bag, jacket etc.

Asked on October 5th, 2018What cultural differences should I be aware of when visiting Nepal
- Himalaya Heart Treks & Expedition[P] Ltd Operator•Written October 2018
As a multicultural country, Nepal respects people of all faiths, creeds and cultures and definitely expects the same from the visitors too. There are no such restrictions or limitations on your activities, except those considered illegal and immoral. That being said, public displays of affection are somewhat unacceptable in Nepal, and in order to feel comfortable and attract fewer stares, females may wish to wear long sleeves, especially in more remote areas.
