Very caring and knowledgeable guides!

Our group did a four-day hike to the Mardi Himal Basecamp. Our guides Kamal and Lila went above and beyond our expectations. They were very kind and supportive, throughout the whole trek. They made sure we were safe during the walks, had enough food to eat as well if we were all well rested. During the four-day hike, it was great to see the passion both Kamal and Lila had for trekking and the knowledge they had when navigating the mountains. I am really grateful that I got to experience my first major hike with them! – Isaac

4 Day Mardi Himal Trek

Rated 5 out of 5
January 20, 2023

I went with a group of friends (8 total) on the 4 day trek to Mardi Himal Base Camp. From the beginning of planning our trip, communications with Jayaram was very easy. We sent him our info before we arrived in Nepal and everything (guides, permits, accommodations during the trek, etc) was arranged by the time we got there.

Our guides during the trek (Kamal and Lila) were incredible. They kept us on a good pace to avoid altitude sickness and kept track of our oxygen to make sure we were still good to continue. Kamal and Lila were also very patient in answering all of our many questions during the 4 days.

I’d definitely recommend using Base Camp Hike for any trekking experiences.

I would highly recommend this company. Jayaram arranged everything smoothly before leaving. He also replied very fast. I got very fast response from Jayaram. So I booked trek with his company.

Vishnu, our guide was amazing. He always made sure we were okay and had a very good spirit, always making jokes and taking care of us. Nonetheless, he also taught us Yoga. A very sympathetic man, always laughing and flexible to the itinerary.

View during Trekking to Mardi Himal Base Camp was also amazing. Every day we were rewarded with great Annapurna view.

It was the best trip I ever had.

Thanks all of Base Camp Hike for everything.

It was my first trekking experience in Nepal( Mardi Himal Trekking). It was amazing, I enjoyed every single day of our trekking. I did this trek in November 2021 with guide Kamal from Base Camp Hike company. Our guide and porter were great. A professional guide, friendly porter, and clear weather made this trip simply beautiful and unforgettable.

I’m very grateful for the good organization of this trip. Thank you so much and see you again soon for another trip. I will definitely come again to Nepal for Everest Base Camp Trekking.
