We were recently on Island Peak Climbing with EBC Trek with this agency. They took care of everything, for example, we wanted to do the trip only with the trek and climb Sherpa (not including porter in the package, we found it too tough to carry the full load while going to high elevation, they managed porter for our luggage from Namche. The climbing guide was very excellent, without his support we could not make the summit.

Oct 2024 I booked EBC with 2 pass (Chola and Renjola Pass) trek. They arranged everything from Kathmandu to Kathmandu in a very efficient way. The guide they allotted Mr. Bhim Rai was an excellent and experienced guide. I am impressed and do recommend Adventure Mountain Treks for trips in Nepal.
Pralad is the best guide one could ask for! We did EBC trek, beginning of December feels like best period to do this.

We began our Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) trek on April 26, 2025, and it was truly a journey of a lifetime. Huge thanks to Raj, Pralad, and the entire Adventure Mountain Trek team for taking such wonderful care of us throughout our Himalayan adventure. From the very beginning, we felt welcomed and well looked after. The team's warmth, knowledge, and professionalism made our 10-day trek not only smooth but incredibly enjoyable. We were absolutely spoiled — with hearty laughs, rich stories and history about the region, cozy accommodations, and most importantly, amazing food every step of the way! This trek will remain one of our most cherished travel experiences, and it's all thanks to this amazing crew. I will definitely be recommending Adventure Mountain Trek to my friends and loved ones. Nepal, we’re not done yet — I’ll be back for more soon! Thank you again for everything!
