Three Passes Trekking Reviews
Memorable 3 pass Trek
I did 3 pass trek with Guide Kamal in November 2019. It was a wonderful trip that I ever had. Guide Kamal did a fantastic job so that I became able to do such strenuous 3 passes.
Thank you Base Camp Hike for everything. I will again come for another trip.
Amazing trek with great guide and Company
We found this company while searching on Google. Before booking, we had many conversations through WhatsApp regarding the trip. Jayaram(owner) responded to our inquiry very promptly. It impressed me very much. We did Everest 3 passes trek with Guide Kamal and porter Tej. Guide, Kamal, and Porter Tej were very friendly. Both of them are very honest and professional. Nonetheless, we had great weather while hiking. So all in all, I highly recommended Kamal as Guide and Base Camp Hike Company.
