    We, 2 Dutch brothers, 64 and 71 years old, did our 12 day EBC trek from the 12th of March 2025. On the day of our departure, there were no flights from Kasthmandu to Lukla. Very fortunately, we did manage to get onto the last helicopter that day. While it rained steadily in the afternoon during our trek to Phakding, it turned out this was the last day we had any precipitation. From then on it was glorious sunshine! And the trek, although hard work, was glorious from beginning to end. The views got better and better- from simply stunning to incredibly stupendous. Our guide, Santa Tamang was brilliant- very experienced (100+ times to EBC) he offered the right kind of guidance and support. In addition, he provided great insights into the local people and customs. It helped that his English was at least as good as ours!

    I recently completed the Everest Base Camp trek with Sherpa Expedition, and it was an unforgettable experience. Our group of 18 trekkers was led by the incredibly knowledgeable and experienced guide, Lakpa Sherpa. From start to finish, the entire journey was seamless, safe, and incredibly rewarding. Lakpa's expertise and leadership were crucial to making the trek not only successful but also enjoyable. His deep knowledge of the region, the mountains, and the local culture brought the journey to life. He made sure we were well-prepared, provided valuable insights about the landscape, and kept the group motivated through every challenging step. The trekking team at Sherpa Expedition was top-notch, ensuring our accommodation, meals, and logistics were smooth throughout the journey. We had excellent support from the porters, who were strong and reliable, always with a smile. The stunning views of the Himalayas, the sense of accomplishment when we finally reached Everest Base Camp, and the friendly, welcoming locals made the trip even more special. This trek was a fantastic adventure, and I would highly recommend Sherpa Expedition to anyone considering trekking to Everest Base Camp. The professionalism, warmth, and support from Lakpa Sherpa and the team made all the difference, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience.

    I recently completed the Everest Base Camp Trek with Sherpa Expedition, and it was absolutely life-changing. From the moment we arrived, the team made us feel safe and well-prepared for the challenging trek ahead. Our Sherpas were not only highly experienced but also incredibly friendly and supportive throughout the journey. The views along the way were breathtaking, and reaching the base camp itself felt like a dream come true. I couldn’t have asked for a better company to guide me through this incredible adventure!

    Asked on February 18th, 2025

    I hope you're well! I've managed to convince 2 friends to hike to EBC in late May and loved the look of your website. Before I chat with them further, I wanted to ask a few questions. We are 23 year old English/Scottish blokes who are all active, but have little mountaineering experience outside of the UK. Are there any 12 to 13 day treks departing in mid-late May? Would you recommend your company for people our age? How many people are typically in a trekking group? What is the total cost of the trek? What gear do I need to bring, and do you offer any rental options? Since two of us need to book time off work, how likely are delays due to weather, particularly with Lukla flights? Do we need special travel insurance, and if so, what coverage do you recommend?
