The best alternative to Everest Base Camp!!- Danielle Patterson Patterson
Amazing!!!! If you're looking for an alternative track to Everest Camp, with less crowds and less congestion you won't be disappointed by choosing Gokyo lakes including the Gokyo Ri climb - 5380m! Offering views of crystal clear blue lakes, the largest glacier in the park and ofcourse views of Everest can be seen from here - but not nearly as many tourists on track! The homestays and the families there are very hospital and ensuring that you'll have a warm and comfortable stay. There are a variety of meals to choose from at the home stays with fresh fruit and vegetables - exceptional considering the isolation! Great hospitality with even greater views. The track is a great option too for families / elderly people. I did the track with my mum and it certainly won't be our last time here.
Our Guide, Ramesh Duwadi, really took a very good care of us. We spend an amazing time with him and our porter, who made these holidays a unique adventure time. We felt really safe and comfortable with this team.
Very welcoming and informative If you are in Nepal looking for a trustworthy trekking company, this is the one! Myself and my boyfriend found this company online and went to the office in Kathmandu where we met the owner. He was very welcoming and informative and gave us a very good price and package to trek up to Everest base camp. We were introduced to our guide the following day to plan our trek and to get to know each other. He is an excellent guide with good English, and he looked after us so well throughout the trek. Thank you very much.
