  Really great experience! Dawa Sherpa and Dorje were both incredible and we would not have made it without them. The weather did mean we were delayed 4 days in starting the trek but Ram did his best to help us. The scenery and the history were absolutely beautiful and the accommodation including the food were absolutely better than expected. We made friends for life with others on the tour and would absolutely recommend this trek to anyone.

  Everest Base Camp October 2024. Ram at Sherpa Expedition and trekking company did an excellent job at organizing our trip to EBC for 9 of us from ages 23-67. Ram answered all of our questions promptly and took care of our every need. During the 12 days of trekking, our guides Mindu and Nima were extremely helpful. Mindu who has submitted Mt. Everest few times, was knowledgeable, helpful, caring and friendly. Mindu gave us great advice daily on how we can improve and make our journey possible. He constantly asked us about our health and checked on all of us. His efforts and encouragement made it possible for us to complete our dream. Nima was always with us and became best friends with our kids! Nima was with us every step from the day we landed in Kathmandu till the day we flew back. The team of Mindu including Nima and the 5 portors (Chiri, Tirtha, Manoj, Sam, Jigresh) were like a family to us and took such a great care of us. Will be using your service and Mindu as guide for future trek to Annapurna base camp! Thank you Ram, Mindu& team for an amazing service and memorable experience!!

  The tour to Everest basecamp was incredible! It was made even more memorable with the amazing Sherpa Ngawang WangChuu and the 2 porters, they worked so hard to make it a special trip and bonded as a group. We made such wonderful memories I will never forget. WangChuu was very passionate about his job and his stories of his family and life and climbing to the summit of Everest was inspiring.
