    I booked with these guys to climb island peak. They were very accommodating in providing a guide for only 2 days, for the peak. The guide was awesome, cooked up a feast at base camp to stock up on energy the day before the climb. Summit day was cloudy as hell, but we made it to the top and down no problem. Awesome experience!

    I booked Island peak climbing with Everest base camp trek incl. Gokyo Ri. The trip was absolutely amazing. It is very scenic with excellent views, however more demanding and longer in Island Peak. Island peak is yet another adventure experience which requires more strength and physically demanding, it involves rope and crampons, ice axe. My guide Dendi Sherpa having experienced, friendly and helpful throughout the whole trip. He helped me to reach the top of Island Peak. From the top, magnificent view of Everest and Khumbu himalayan range. That was wonderful experience for me. Ram from Uma Holidays has done excellent job to organize this trip successfully. Overall, I am completely satisfied with this company and recommend this peak for everyone who likes climbing.

    Pure professionalism. The guides were very experienced and protective, so everything we needed to do was admiring the views. Satori took care of every detail, so if I'd be back to Nepal, then only with them! Thank you for making us feel home and safe:)
