I had the most amazing experience on my Everest Base Camp Trek with Mountain Delight. From the moment I arrived, I was taken care of by their amazing staff, who were always ready to help and answer any questions I had. The trek itself was spectacular, with lots of amazing views and experiences. I was so impressed with the level of professionalism and care that the guides, staff and porters provided. Every aspect of the trek was taken care of and I felt safe and secure at all times. I would highly recommend a trek with Mountain Delight and will definitely be using them for future treks.

Everest Base Camp
Experience of EBC trek April 2025. The trek was organized in the best possible way. The team, led by Mingur Sherpa, did put all needed effort into supporting each one in the group so that we all reached the EBC. Alternative transports solutions were arranged when needed, such as helicopters when planes could not land in Lukla and horses when hurting knees needed a rest. A big thank you for the fantastic experience to Kamal and the team and on the track under the leadership of Mingur. You have made us richer.
