Wonderful trip to nepal EBC with Roving Nepal Trek
Wonderful trek to EBC at Nepal with Basu and company Roving Nepal Trek.
Me and my friend did a 11-day trek to the Everest Base camp this year. We feel SO GLAD that we found Basu on an online forum and I can’t be more grateful for having him throughout the trek and my stay in Nepal. Basu is definitely an experienced and professional guide. He has also become a very good brother of ours now .
When we were planning for the trek, we thought about doing the trek on our own without a guide. (Luckily we dropped that idea haha). Now having finished the trek, I would definitely suggest you to go with a guide if it is your first time trekking in Nepal. With a guide, one thing is that you can then focus on walking and fighting with the cold & height. Trust me, you wouldn’t want to spare energy looking for lodges when you get up to 4900m . The other thing is that a guide can keep you SAFE. Mountains are unpredictable and no one can gurantee a safe journey without proper planning and preparation.
Basu took good care of us before, throughout and even after the trek. Excellent communications and quick response. We communicated in English through emails, facebook and whatsapps. He arranged pick-ups from and to the airport, our flight to Lukla, and he also lend me some climbing equipment.
We have also stayed at Basu’s home in Kathmandu before and after the trek. His home is in the middle of a valley, next to some rice paddles and farmland. The family is just too lovely and they treated us like part of the family. You will be surprised by Nepalese’s hospitality and generosity. I am going to miss them a lot .
On the mountain, everything was just perfect! Basu made sure we felt ok with every day’s trekking schedule. We were well-fed and stayed in double room every night (private toilet for some of the nights). Basu is also very knowledgeable with mountains. I learnt a lot from him about Nepalese culture and people. I have enjoyed his adventurous story on the mountain. He is also a very good camera man too XD
YOU WILL REGRET IF YOU MISS BASU AND ROVING NEPAL TREK FOR NEPAL!!
