Incredible Kanchenjunga Trek with Nepal Himalayas Trekking

It was my first time trekking in Nepal and I’m very glad that I have decided to go with Nepal Himalayas Trekking after reading good reviews on Tripadvisor. Mr. Prakash, owner of this trekking agency was prompt in replying to my queries right from the start. When we met up in Kathmandu, he was attentive to our concerns after hearing more about our trekking experience. He recommended adjusting the original trekking itinerary so that we could cope better with acclimatization. This turned out to be a good call and more well-suited to our pace. Even though Mr. Prakash was not personally guiding the trek, his team took very good care of us throughout. The trekking guide, Mr. Mt Tamang, and Sherpa Mr. Thakur Adhikari were attentive to our needs and pace. The attention to planning details from providing a variety of simple yet satisfying meals day after day on the trek to the selection of accommodation rooms to ensure that we get the best view is very much appreciated. Such small gestures but very thoughtful efforts made the trip all the more enjoyable. Very thankful to Prakash and his entire team for making it a memorable experience. If you are looking to trek in Nepal, get in touch with Mr. Prakash & Nepal Himalayas Trekking Company and give them an opportunity to host you.

Our guide, Mr. Dhurba Adhikari, was exceptional. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the region, culture, and the natural beauty surrounding us. His attention to detail, patience, and care made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the trek. His enthusiasm kept us motivated even during the challenging sections.

We were also accompanied by our porter, Durga, who was a true unsung hero. Despite carrying our heavy loads, he was always smiling, supportive, and ensured our luggage was handled with care. His strength and positive attitude were amazing.

The trek itself was breathtaking. The diverse landscapes, remote villages, and views of Kanchenjunga were surreal.

It was my first time trekking in Nepal and I’m very glad that I have decided to go with Nepal Himalayas Trekking after reading good reviews on Tripadvisor. Mr. Prakash, owner of this trekking agency was prompt in replying to my queries right from the start. When we met up in Kathmandu, he was attentive to our concerns after hearing more about our trekking experience. He recommended adjusting the original trekking itinerary so that we could cope better with acclimatization. This turned out to be a good call and more well-suited to our pace. Even though Mr. Prakash was not personally guiding the trek, his team took very good care of us throughout. The trekking guide, Mr. Mt Tamang, and Sherpa Mr. Thakur Adhikari were attentive to our needs and pace. The attention to planning details from providing a variety of simple yet satisfying meals day after day on the trek to the selection of accommodation rooms to ensure that we get the best view is very much appreciated. Such small gestures but very thoughtful efforts made the trip all the more enjoyable. Very thankful to Prakash and his entire team for making it a memorable experience. If you are looking to trek in Nepal, get in touch with Mr. Prakash & Nepal Himalayas Trekking Company and give them an opportunity to host you.

We are a couple from Germany, and we recently completed the Kanchenjunga Base Camp Trek in October 2024 with Nepal Himalayas Trekking, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we booked, Mr. Prakash Lamsal, the company’s owner, ensured everything was perfectly organized.

Our guide, Mr. Dhurba Adhikari, was exceptional. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the region, culture, and the natural beauty surrounding us. His attention to detail, patience, and care made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the trek. His enthusiasm kept us motivated even during the challenging sections.

We were also accompanied by our porter, Durga, who was a true unsung hero. Despite carrying our heavy loads, he was always smiling, supportive, and ensured our luggage was handled with care. His strength and positive attitude were amazing.

The trek itself was breathtaking. The diverse landscapes, remote villages, and views of Kanchenjunga were surreal. Nepal Himalayas Trekking made sure we had comfortable accommodations, good meals, and a well-paced itinerary. Every aspect of the trek was well-managed, and we appreciated the professionalism and warmth of the entire team.

We highly recommend Nepal Himalayas Trekking for anyone considering the Kanchenjunga Base Camp Trek. The combination of an experienced guide, a dedicated porter, and a reliable company made our adventure truly special. Thank you, Prakash, Dhurba, and Durga, for an unforgettable journey!
