Best Everest Base Camp Experience with Himalayan Recreation!
Before explaining the journey to Mount Everest Base Camp, Firstly I respectfully give big thanks to the company Himalayan Recreation Treks, which has given me a memorable experience with lots of knowledge and respect.
We were so excited to see Mt. Everest with real experience of trekking. Me and my friend Rebecca, we were planning to go trekking at Everest Base Camp and our dream came true with the help of Himalayan Recreation Treks, Where we could find very fantastic and friendly team members to co-operate with us also they were very curious and sensitive to our needs within a whole journey period. Our Everest Base camp trek guide Suman was very friendly, supportive and informative. After being served by their services, we highly recommend their services to you all because they will provide you with a unique environment and try their best to make you feel better.
Talking about the journey to Mt Everest Base Camp (EBC) trekking, the way to our destination was steep and sloppy. We have had an amazing experience. Along with the fresh green scenery, the view of the mountains was also very beautiful as we have not visited any other places related to this type of trekking before but our guide gave lots of remedies and suggested each and every do's and don'ts so that we could be aware of exceptional cases. He was so familiar with us. The hotel where we dropped the whole night gave us another golden chance to observe The Sherpa's culture and their traditional dances along with their unique food items. We were very glad to have our guide Suman and this company because they cared so much to make our journey interesting.
Seeing the nature of Mt. Everest periphery we were feeling too fantastic and happy. There were some kinds of health problems along the way but our guide has fully helped and tried more for our easiness. Steeply land, huge stones and rocks, a fresh environment and clear water springs just attracted my heart. The cultural places like Gumbas, yak and sheep grazing were my center of attraction on the journey. My friend was also very happy to see all these activities and scenic beauty because I gave a surprise to her on the occasion of Friendship Day because she was my one and only special friend. The next day, by the side of our guide Suman gave another surprise to both of us by celebrating friendship day and organizing a small party by his side. This made us so proud to be with Himalayan Recreation which has given us that valuable memory for a lifetime. At that moment I just remembered the day when I texted them for the first time to meet my plan towards the Everest Base Camp. They are really helpful.
On the other hand, the down jackets and sleeping bag providing facility was the most helpful for us due to these our luggage was also not tightly packed but the problem of Toilet was badly faced with some kinds of difficulties. Basically, the head office located in Kathmandu has helped more by inquiring us with the help of emails and wants to thank the managing director. Thanks a lot, Bishnu, and team for your efforts.
On the way, we observed many other peaks also. The famous thing was yak milk's varieties and Sherpa culture. We experienced totally different society in Nepal with very friendly behavior provided by the local people of that area. They gave a big respect to us. We were feeling so bad at last when it was time to say goodbye to them. I would like to say more but I think it's already too long I proudly can claim that how much I explain is not enough anymore. I am fully satisfied with the level of service provided to us by the side of the company.I highly recommend it to you all because it has enough n too much experience about how to treat the visitors and trekkers during the journey time..besides, these facilities are outstanding n superb I can not explain in words..If we will get another chance to visit we will for sure remember the Himalayan Recreation and the best trekking guide👍👍

14 day EBC trek April 2018
Booked this trip via "Grab One" website. Link to Himalaya Recreation website was a bit confusing so thought some things included, like Kathmandu entry fees, that were actually not included. Also had a negotiation with Bishnu on day one about paying a "single premium" that I was not expecting. But all settled amicably.
The trek to EBC was fantastic. Guide Varat and head porter Na Kumar were outstanding. Helpful, humorous, knowledgeable, empathetic. Food was simple and adequate. It is not a gourmet experience but local dhal bhat was always good. "24 hour dal bhat power" a catch phrase. Accomodation was again basic but fine. Make sure you have a good sleeping bag. Scenery is amazing. Days sometimes pretty tough but always rewarding.
Flight to Lukla was a bit nervy. That runway is short!
I had a great time with a group of six other trekkers. Spent about NR25,000 (US$250)over 14 days of the trek on water, beer food etc.Tipped US$100 to the guide & porters. (Total, not each. Was at upper end of what is "normal").
Kathmandu airport is a bit chaotic. Allow plenty of time.
Having cards and a book for downtime at the lodges is a good idea.
Highly recommend this trek. But you best be fit to get maximum enjoyment.
