“I enjoyed every second of my Everest Base Camp trip which was thanks to bijay in kathmandu and our wonderful guide kumar who was charming, helpful and fun, they both could not do enough for us. I woukd highly recommend experience the himalayas for a well organised trip and they include the important acclimatisation days. They also offer great value too in comparison with a lot of other similar treks”
“My 12 year old son and I had a remarkable time in India & Nepal. Loads of 'firsts', some great, some not so great, e.g. the toilets! However, that's Nepal for you!”
“A wonderful experience, highly recommended! Our guide was very polite, knowledgeable and went out of his way to ensure a great trek, likewise the sherpas. The office support from the staff was very professional and a pleasure to deal with. Thank you!”
“The week we spent in Nepal was amazing. It is a beautiful and fascinating country, its people friendly and welcoming. The walk itself was challenging and we all experienced a lot of aches and pains in our legs from it - Day three was particularly tough on the legs. But the views were stunning. The guide and porters were amazing, I have nothing but praise and admiration for them. Our guide, Raj, made sure we were all kept in formed of plans, organised meals and payments and was informative about Nepal and good fun too! - I would recommend this to anyone who is sure footed, fit and up for a bit of an adventure!”
“I was hesitant about embarking on an everest base camp trek as a solo female traveller. However I always felt completely safe and in good hands with my excellent, funny and sweet guide Kumar. Bijay was also always available for all queries or recommendations. I would not hesitate in recommending experience the Himalayas, and am already planning on using them again for future treks.”
“Great price, great guides, first rate organization, why pay more with a bigger operator when this trip gives everything for less with the bonus that you get answers to all your e-mails!”
“I booked this holiday from the UK. I didn't know anything about the company but the price looked good and the website attracted me. Well, we had a brilliant holiday and there was nothing to worry about from the time we got off the plane to the time we left on a plane. We were met from the airport and taken straight to the hotel. We received a welcome brief from the company rep Bijay. He was brilliant and even saw us off on the day we left. Our guide on the trek was Raj. Again he was wonderful. Both Raj and our porters were lovely whilst we were on our trek. Our hotel The Vaishalli was also good and I would definitely stay there again. I would like to go back to Nepal and do another trek. A wonderful country. I would definitely use this company again.”
“Enjoyed every minute of our trip to Nepal. We had a fantastic break with just enough (not too much!) hard walking to make it worthwhile.
Our guide Raj and his team were fantastic and we felt particularly privileged that they invited us to share their celebration of Tihar - we danced until our aching legs could dance no more!
Thank you.”
“Experience the Himalayas gave me a wonderful, stress free, well organized holiday. The staff, especially Dendi and Phuri, where knowledgable, professional and fun. I will most definitely be returning to Nepal and I would have no hesitation in using Experience the HImalayas again and highly recommending them.”
“I was lucky enough to do the Everest Base Camp Trek in October 2014 with "Experience the Himalayas".
The web site had whet my appetite, the price was right and I'd had good e-mail feedback from Bijay in their Nepal office.
Organised my flights and passed on the details to Bijay and he took it on from there.
Met at the airport and taken to a good hotel in Thamel. After relaxing met Bijay and the trek guide and were briefed well before being taken out for a Nepalese meal.
Bijay had earlier sorted out currency exchange and sourcing Diamox plus any other queries.
The next morning the adventure began.
The trek is AMAZING.
Our Nepali guide Shyam was superb the entire trip, our porters were stars.
Shyam was ever informative, non stop help and loved learning new card games in the evenings!
Nothing and no request was too much trouble and even accompanied me solo up to Nangkar Tshang peak as well as doing Everest View Point twice from Namche Bazar.
Upon returning from a truly stunning trek we were well looked after back in Kathmandu by Bijay right up until the taxi to the airport for the flights home.
My pictures and videos are public on Facebook so check out Brian Corbeau and see what you could like me marvel at.
Come to the Himalayas and "Experience the Himalayas" will give you what the name says.”
“By far, the most amazing experience we have had to date in our lives. Experience the himalayas, made us feel at ease from the moment we mets each of the guys the night we arrived. Wonderful people. Wonderful experience. Stunning country.”
“Experience the Himalayas is more than an average trek. It's route takes you through different terrain every day with stunning landscapes, village life and an amazing river as my personal highlights. Our amazing guide Raj really opened us up to learning about the Nepalese way of life. The hospitality was second to none. Our porters not only carried our bags but cooked us such a tasty noodle soup and showed us how they celebrate Diwali with music and dancing. It really felt genuine and so special to see. The trek was a little harder than moderate in English terms but worth every minute. The yoga at the end of the trek was very much needed. Set on a hill overlooking the lake in Pokhara was a nice way to finish.”
“From the moment I contacted Experience the Himalayas, I knew it was going to be one of the best choices I had made.
David and Bijay were always quick to respond with my many questions about our trip to Langtang & Goisakund and I never felt nervous about our big adventure.
The trek was fantastic and our guide, Kumar and porters Furi & Janga were wonderful. We were lucky enough to have a very small group and they made us feel secure & well looked after every step of the way. Kumar has such a vast knowledge & love for his country that it was a joy to trek with him.
I would love to complete more treks and will definitely be coming back to Experience the Himalayas. For their outstanding professionalism & choice of treks but also because they always listen carefully to the customers and take on board any changes someone might suggest.
Langtang & Goisakund was spectacular and I am still in awe of the beauty I experienced in Nepal, all thanks to Experience the Himalayas! Thank you so much.”
“'Experience the Himalayas' is a great company who look after you and put your needs first.
With excellent staff and knowledgable Sherpa's and guides, it makes your trek safe, informative and a journey of discovery
I would definitely choose them for my next adventure
Thank you guys”
“What an amazing experience. The whole them were absolutely faultless and went above and beyond what was expected of them to make our trip extremely special.”
“initial info good, perhaps an email re the tradegy in annapanau region would of calmed some fears. Airport pick up great, hotel also good. I knew accommodation would be basic but was surprised how cold it was even at the start in lukla. The three rest days were good to improve acclimisation i"m sure this helped with our success in reaching ebc Guide and sherpa were excellent, nothing was too much trouble although we had a small group we had a wonderful trek and i would use the company again - Nepal is a wonderful country, i would love to visit again some day. Diolch yn fawr iawn !!!”
“Well I have just returned from a fantastic trek in in Nepal. (Base camp- Everest).
I would just like to say, what a fantastc and enjoyable time I had. It was certainly a brilliant experience.
Your staff in Nepal, are to be commended. Bijay, Tanka (The guide) Rinjay (Assistant Guide) and the young lad who herded the Yaks. They all without exception did your company proud.
They were capable, helpful, dilligent and without exception they all toiled ceaslessly to ensure that our group had an enjoyable experience.
In fact I have enjoyed it so much, that I would like to join you again and undertake the Annapurna curcuit.
I shall be joined by my youngest daughter (23 yrs). But we wont be able to undertake it until 2016, when she has finished at University.
I have sent an email to Bijay, thanking him for all his endeavours and, I shall be doing the same with Tanka. They certainly made the trip something that I shall remember for a long long time. Lots of happy and pleasant memories to keep dredging up for years to come.
So, again you have my sincerest Thanks.
Kind regards.
John Dufton.”
“just to say I had a fantastic time trekking up to Everest. Thank you kindly, I enjoyed my guide's company, Dendi Sherpa was a delight to trek with, and so helpful. Raj at Mountain Sum Valley was nice and very helpful, thanks also to Dipen who's company I really enjoyed, he made my last two days in Kathmandu very pleasant (when I was initially thinking I would have rather have stayed up in the mountains)”
