  • Everest Base Camp Trek – Helicopter return – 12 Days reviewer 1
    · August 15th, 2024
    My work schedule permitted me go on the Mt Everest Base Camp Trek only in August during monsoon season. Unique Adventure International accommodated my schedule and even though I was the only traveler who booked for the August 3 slot, they provided me a guide and a porter. Khum (the owner of the company) met me at my hotel before the trek, and greeted me at the airport when I returned. My every need was looked for by my guide Ramesh and my porter Bishnu. The professionalism they displayed is a benchmark for every profession to aspire to. Although I am 56 and was 265 lbs (120 kilos), they got me to Everest Base Camp.

    It’s the best agency not only in Nepal, in whole Himalayas that arranges exactly what you want. I took a custom EBC tour for 9 days which I wanted to challenge myself, and it went all smoothly. Thanks to agency owner Khum for being in touch all the time and giving a reasonable price. Thanks to my guide Balkumar for keeping me up on high altitudes, even we didn’t acclimate, he was being a good example for me to keep myself strong and keep going whatever the condition is. Was a great experience. See you on the next hike!

    Very nice pick up from the airport. We were informed in time where the driver was, and in a nice car, we were driven to the hotel! We got a lot of information on Kathmandu and Nepal on our way.

    I start goal to say that I will never forget everything I experienced. I thank so much to the company (Unique adventure international P. Ltd.) that allowed me to experience all this. I booked the 12-day Everest base camp tour from Italy, I was followed every second, the service was fantastic, everything went perfectly. I was impressed by the attention and care of every detail. I was very pleased, the guide who allowed me to get to the EBC was fantastic, right from the start a good relationship was established. As soon as I reached 5640m altitude I felt like I was on the roof of the world, it was magical. Thank you very much, I recommend you to book through this agency, I think it is the best in Kathmandu.

    Are you a fun of mountain trekking and you looking for some adventurous vacation, then you should go to Nepal and look for Unique Adventure! These guys will do the best they can to make your dream come true. Khum, the owner of the company, runs his business having as a priority the customers’ satisfaction. He welcomed us at the airport l, he answered exceptionally to all our questions, and introduced us to Nepal world. Ramesh was the best guide that we could have, he advised how to stay healthy throughout the entire trip, explained to us what we have seen, offered safest places to eat and best accommodation; he was shadow during the whole trip, doing everything he could to make our experience memorable. All in all they succeded to offer us a Unique Adventure!!! Thank you and keep up the good work!

    EBC trek with helicopter return Review of Everest Base Camp Trek Pending review I did the EBC trek with a small group of friends. Overall, I am very satisfied with all arrangements and services provided during this trip. The booking process was straightforward, without any communication problems whatsoever. Upon arrival in Kathmandu, we met company's owner (who used to be a guide) to review the details of the trek, and we were given the opportunity to supplement out equipment by borrowing (free) or buying needed items. Our two guides were very friendly and helpful throughout the trip and knowledgeable about the details of each daily stage of the hike. I would definitely recommend Unique Adventure to others who would consider a similar escapade. Jarek.
