    A Once in a Lifetime Trip to Everest Base camp

    Nepal has been #1 on my bucket list since my parents told me they did the Everest Base Camp Trek (EBC) in November of 1983 and then I was born 9 months later. I suppose you can say Nepal has been a part of me, and my entire life I have had an indescribable desire to see it. 

    I started planning our trip a year in advance to do the Everest Base camp trek, and did copious amounts of research on trekking and adventure companies. I initially was going to go with an American-based company, but I stumbled upon great reviews about Outfitter Nepal.

    I emailed Raj (the first of about a 1000!), and decided to develop a personalized, private trip through Outfitter Nepal. Preparing for a trip that is 12,000 miles away and not being totally sure of what to pack and how to prepare can be daunting. I must have emailed Raj hundreds of times, and he always responded promptly and with much patience for my dozens of questions.

    He eased any uncertainty I had about the trip and we were beyond excited to start our adventure. We arrived at the Kathmandu airport and were met by representatives of Outfitter Nepal.

    We dropped our luggage off at the Hotel Moonlight and then went to meet Raj. He is an incredibly genuine and honest man, and I am so glad that he and his company are who introduced us to the amazing country of Nepal. 

    Our second day in Nepal, Birodh took us on a small group tour in an air-conditioned van around the temples and sights of Nepal. This is definitely not to be missed!! Birodh was a fountain of information and an excellent tour guide. 

    Our guide, Sudip, and our porters, Pasang and Buddha, were top notch. Sudip was very knowledgeable about the mountains and Nepal. I had countless questions about Nepal, the culture, and the mountains, and Sudip answered them all. Our trek to EBC was priceless, and our first view of Everest while in Namche was unforgettable. We had one small hotel issue in Namche, and Sudip (and Raj) helped us fix it in no time. 

    I had also talked to Raj about perhaps visiting Chitwan National Park. While we were trekking, Raj set up a fabulous trip to Chitwan, including airplane, hotel and tours.

    We stayed in the amazing Green Park Resort and did multiple jungle and river tours. If you are in Nepal for the EBC trek, add a few extra days and visit Chitwan! We saw wild one-horned rhinos, Asian Elephants, the 5 species of deer, 2 species of crocodiles and hundreds of birds. Definitely worth the time!!!

    We hope to return to Nepal and trek Mera Peak, as well as just spend more time in the phenomenal country of Nepal. The Nepalese people, I cannot say enough good things about. They go out of their way to help you and make you feel welcome and happy.

    In addition to the first-class customer service, the people of Outfitter Nepal are honest, and will do everything in their power to make your trip to Nepal a trip of a lifetime.

    Nepal View Tour

    We got amazing deal and kept wondering: where's the catch? We had pretty low expectations as after all you get what you pay for. We couldn't be more wrong! Nepal was on our bucket list for a long time and we are so glad we got to do it with Outfitter Nepal .

    They are absolutely amazing and I will recommend them to everyone. Organization, itinerary, staff, and accommodation was all perfect and the best value for money we ever experienced. Our guide Hari made our trip so much more enjoyable and memorable and we know we will be back in Nepal to more trekking and it most definitely be with Outfitter Nepal Treks and Expedition.

    Travelling with local guides and porters makes you feel safe - for you it is exotic destination, for them it's home and they know everything there is to know. Raj and Arjun (2 of the company owners) were very accommodating and helpful when we experienced issues with our flights (arrived day later than intended). Great company, great people and great trip!!!

    Best Trekking experience with Outfitter Nepal

    Amazing trip to Nepal thanks to everyone at OUTFITTER NEPAL.
    Travelling alone, I felt safe and well looked after from pick up at the airport to drop off when leaving. The 5 days ghorepani poon hill trek as part of my 11 day trip was a fantastic experience.

    The group had chance to walk at their own pace and the tea houses and lodges we stopped at were welcoming and comfortable. The home cooked food was fresh and delicious. Our Guide Bala was second to none. Nothing was too much trouble and he was always on hand to answer any questions or to offer help where needed.

    A highly experienced and knowledgeable Guide. I would highly recommend Bala and would definitely love to Trek with him again. We all bonded well as a group and the experiences we shared brought us great lasting friendships. Our fantastic Porters Saroz and Kiran were unstoppable with our heavy bags! Always polite, friendly and hard working. It was sad to say goodbye after such an exhilarating Trip.

    Well organised and excellent value for money, I would not hesitate to book again or to recommend Oufitter Nepal to anyone seeking a thrilling rewarding experience in Nepal.

    5 weeks in Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan

    I started looking at a simple Trekking Holiday in Nepal and after finding Outfitter Nepal's website and getting "good vibes" talking to them we eventually decided to go the "Whole Hog" and booked a 1 month holiday with them including the overland trip to Lhasa from Kathmandu, a 5 day trek to Ghorepani Poon Hill and an 8 night tour of Bhutan, plus free days in Kathmandu for us to explore the valley by ourselves.

    Arjun who does all the email communications was fantastic, prepared to adjust the itinerary to suit our needs, for instance we dropped travelling to Chitwan to have more days in Bhutan, and added destinations in Bhutan that weren't on their website.

    Before we were due to leave Australia, they notified us the Chinese Embassy in Kathmandu was closing an dour Tibet portion of the tour was at risk, but we changed our arrival to a day early and they readjusted the Tibet and Nepal portions so it all went ahead.

    Raj who looks after you on arrival and throughout is also fantastic, making sure all is organised. I could write forever, but its easiest to say, each part of our holiday went well, the guides and drivers were lovely, good english and took care of out every need. The accommodation was very good.

    I think Outfitter's are a very professional well run company that takes pride in looking after their customers, do yourself a favour and book with them.

    Good people with good thoughts

    Nepal is an amazing destination - especially when seen with an amazing tour company, Outfitter Nepal. From being picked up at Katmandu airport (they had to wait for hours for us all to get through the frustratingly long,slow queues) to being greeted at our hotel by the owner of the company himself to discuss the itinerary planned, we were feeling confident that the holiday was going to be a good one.

    Our guide, Birodh turned out to be exceptional. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable, he was helpful in any way needed, patient and encouraging when it came to the long hikes and steps (we all made it!) but also had a crazy (in a good way) sense of humour!

    Our driver Raj, was also exceptional; there are many mad drivers on the very bumpy roads both in the cities and up to the mountains, and our lives were certainly in his hands, but we always felt completely safe with his driving. Definitely visit Nepal at least once in your life - definitely with Outfitter Nepal, and definitely ask for Birodh and Raj, they certainly are good people with good thoughts and have left us with very happy memories.

    12 Day Everest Base Camp Trek

     Outfitter Nepal was so kind to follow up with a reminder. And good thing they did - otherwise I'd have regretted not doing this trek.

    Service doesn't stop there - You will be picked up from Tribhuvan Airport to your hotel, adequate briefings given on what to expect for the Everest base camp trek, & during the trek itself, adequate staff will be on hand to cover the lead group, as well as to sweep the rear.

    This is quality service with an emphasis on YOUR experience! And since we were back in Kathmandu for New Year's eve, we got to dine & party with the Outfitter Nepal guys.

    Great bunch!

    Everest Base camp trek

    We booked the Everest Base Camp trekking package in end May and had a really experienced and wonderful guide, Hom, whom with his networks, got us room upgrades at some of the lodges as it was nearing the end of the trekking season and lodges are often less crowded.

    The trip was smooth and well coordinated.

    On the second day of our descent from, Smirk Airlines apparently cancelled our return flight from Lukla to Kathmandu but Outfitter Nepal quickly booked another flight to ensure that our return to Kathmandu will not be delayed.
