Excellent Everest Base Camp Trek Amazing experience be open minded with living accommodations when close to base camp. Have extra money for waters, limited visa places and only one town with arm. Trails/view were amazing food was good. Guide as great!
Annapurna Base Camp and Poon Hill We had a very nice trip, saw interesting villages like landruk/gandruk with villagers working on the terraces. Our guide Nima Sherpa was allways very helpful, had a very good timing in the walking, explained plants, and dicovered monkey groups in the forest. In the evening we had a good time playing cards with him and our porter Rasan.
Travelled during off peak season, July is their monsoon period so there aren’t many tourist around. Did get some good views along the way, weather is clear most of the time in the morning & the clouds set in during the afternoons & rains most of the times in the evening. As it was off peak season, many places were closed as well. However, I enjoyed the peace & tranquility during the trek without many people around and thought it was a good trade off for the weather. Signed up for Island Peak and was an unsuccessful attempt due to the weather & safety reasons. And won’t recommend others for a technical ascend during the off peak season. Had to add extra days during the trip incase of bad weather. Fortunately for me, the weather did not affect me & Krishna helped me to manage the remaining days left in Kathmandu to tour around the area and my accommodations.
