Everest Base Camp in Style reviews

A real life affirming experience
A real life affirming experience. I have always dreamed of making this trip and a recent sabbatical from work allowed me to do so. I cannot remember the last time I wrote to a company to commend their service but felt compelled to do so on this occasion! The obvious planning that has gone into the itinerary shows through. Some off the best days were the acclimatisation days off the beaten track. Our guide was sensational. He really fostered a great group spirit and got all 10 of us onto the Base Camp. An incredible achievement. Nothing was too much trouble for the whole team. I cannot praise him and his team highly enough. I have already recommended this trip to three people who were contemplating the trek. Already looking at your brochure for next year! Good Job!
EBC in Style - November 2019
Outstanding experience, from beginning to end! This trip is definitely a life-list adventure for anyone who loves the mountains. The scenery is world class, and the infrastructure provides an accessible means to high-altitude trekking. The local staff were exceptional, from our guides, Kami and Phurba, who were very knowledgeable, experienced, and attentive, to the hard-working porters and excellent service at the Everest Summit Lodges. To top it off, the weather in November was perfect. Throughout the process, Mountain Kingdoms made the journey a pleasure to accomplish. Highly recommended!
Base Camp in Some Style!
A real life affirming experience. It was a trip I had always dreamed of making. The trip from start to finish was everything I had hoped it would be. The attention to detail in the planning and the top notch guide made sure our group of 10 with an average age of 55 bonded really well and we all made our objective. The itinerary and the knowledge of our guide delivered a wonderful insight into the history of the Khumbu valley and the culture of the Sherpa People. For anyone else like me who has always dreamed of doing this- do it- you will not be disappointed!

Personal first class service from lovely people, well done everyone, we will be back and would not hesitate to recommend.The holiday was fantastic, I thought the itinerary and acclimatisation program was spot on. Our Guide deserves a special mention, he was outstanding and saw to our every need.
Xmas Holiday in Himalayas
An amazing trip!!! MK took care of all the logistics, provided us an amazing hotel stay, and we were on our way to our trek. We were fortunate to have on of the most amazing guides, Kami T Sherpa, who made us feel very welcome and was always quick to provide us with anything we needed to make us feel comfortable during the trek. He was such a positive, and happy person. Travelling with him was a joy! Thank you MK for an amazing holiday.
It was a great trip
It exceeded our expectations because of the knowledge of the Tour Guide. The hike was a journey during which we learned so much about the Nepalese culture, people, foods, plants, animals, etc. I am glad we did this trip, the Luxury Lodges were amazing and such a bonus compared to what other places people had to stay in.
Everest Base Camp in Style
The Everest Base Camp in Style trek was outstanding, and made even more so by our excellent guide, Damber. The weather could not have been better - sunny days and blue skies - and although the nights were cold, we were very well looked after by lots of hot food, hot showers, electric blankets and hot water bottles - so truly spoiled. The "In Style" version is more expensive than the regular Base Camp trek also offered by Mountain Kingdoms but It is well worth paying a little more for these comforts, especially in December. We really looked forward to the Everest Summit Hotels along the way as they were superb with wonderful staff and fantastic food. The trail made for very good walking amidst spectacular scenery - the Himalayas are hard to beat - and the Everest region is unbelievably beautiful. December was a really good time to go with far fewer tourists on the path and more space in the lodges. We had a fabulous time with our guide, Damber, who looked after us and gave us all sorts of tips and advice, and I cannot recommend him more highly. Thanks to the steady "Damber plod", we all got to Base Camp in good health and high spirits. I really enjoyed this trek - one of the best I have done - and I will probably go back in a few years and do it again. I highly recommend this trek, especially out of season.
Everest Base Camp in Style
All very well organised. A lot of thought and expertise had obviously gone into the planning of the trek.
Simply wonderful
The trip to EBC was simply wonderful. We were in very good hands with our guide Jigme. He did everything thinkable to make this trip the experience of a lifetime. Staying in the lodges certainly makes a difference at the end of a trekking day and is well worth paying a little extra. I would recommend it to everyone who comes to visit the Khumbu region.
Fantastic trip and life memories
We enjoyed everything! We felt that we were in safe hands. The whole experience was beyond our expectations. Overall a fantastic trip and life memories, thank you so much.
