    We had a direct flight connection from Kathmandu to Lukla and back, which saved us a long bus ride. Our guide Santa and the carriers were very friendly and courteous. Due to my illness, we had to change the tour. Our guide Santa and the carriers supported us, so we still had a fascinating time in Sagarmatha National Park. Thanks to the team.

    · January 30th, 2023
    Well Service, Amazing experience and great adventure in the mountains!! Gokyo Cho La Pass trek with Sherpa Expedition and Trekking is highly recommended. The agency is an expert in Manaslu region, Karma made all the preparations very smooth. I am a solo traveller and he helped me to find a group. All the communication was very smooth and I always got quick answers. Despite the tight schedule, the agency managed to get all the permits, and we left for the trek the day after arriving in Kathmandu. Karma And Nima are knowledgeable, responsible and funny guide / supporter who made sure we had the best experience during the trek:) We loved the nature, villages, mountain views. I would love to return to Nepal and explore new parts of this beautiful country with Sherpa Expedition and Trekking

    I don't have any word to describe this company. All was well organized. Our guides Furingi and sona Sherpa were very courteous and helped us in every aspect. Even though we were traveling in a group, I had the possibility to plan a few days individually since I had no problems regarding altitude sickness. It was also very good that Furinji checked our oxygen levels every evening. If you have the time, go for this trek. Cho La Pass and Gokyo Ri were the highlights, this part of the trek is much more quiet compared to the EBC trek where you don’t even have 5min without helicopters or other people trekking. Highly Recommended this company.

    life-changing experience!!! I have done Gokyo, Cho La and Ebc Trek with sherpa expeditions. The great Gokyo Cho La Pass Trek is the most spectacular camping that I ever know of. What I liked personally about this trek was the courtesy and reception of the inhabitants at this place. Even though the trek was steep and sharp we had ample route to trek and enjoy. We even had time to take marvelous pictures at each and every step of the trek. I should say that I went on this trek at the right time. it was a life-changing experience for me!!

    Best Trekking Agency In Nepal! We are three sisters from US, and we had a great experience trekking to Gokyo Cho la pass trek with Sherpa Expedition and Trekking Team. We were also provided with Female guide. She was tentative to all our needs during the trip and always made sure to get us extra blankets when possible! Our Sherpa female guide was very knowledgeable about the route and felt like we learned a lot and always felt safe.

    Gokyo Cho La Pass was my first trekking trip and my very first trip to Nepal. It had been one of my dreams to get there. I didn't know what to expect but was excited about finally making that dream come true. To my huge surprise, we met Sherpa Expedition and Trekking Team for the first time and knew we were in good hands.

    This was an amazing trip with Kalapatthar sunrise and Everest base camp and Gokyo Ri sunrise, both of which we were spoilt on clear skies and lovely weather, The guides and porters were all amazing, trying to communicate with their broken English, our main guide Raju Mainali was fantastic, with his knowledge of mountains and other areas in Nepal. I would highly recommend this trip, just be sure that you love steps and that you love mountains and breathtaking views!!

    I have used Sherpa Expeditions three times while visiting Nepal, including treks to Everest Base camp gokyo chola pass and the Annapurna Circuit. You will be in good hands with them from the moment you plan your trip until they see you off to return home. Their guides are great, especially Ram, he made both of my long treks even more enjoyable. When you arrive at the airport you will know you are working with a service that wants your entire visit to Nepal to be perfect...their driver is the best, he's picked me up several times and is always right there when you walk out of the airport.
