Best time for EBC trek - I'm convinced our guide Ganga was the best guide on the mountain. Everyone on our team had an amazing experience trekking to EBC. Prakesh and team did a great job with all of the complicated logistics. It would not have been possible with a different trekking company or going solo.

Everest Base Camp tour - From our arrival to the end, Mr Prakash tended to all our needs. Nothing was a problem and he and his excellent team ensured that the trip was a safe and successful experience. I had so many questions before the trip and everything was answered promptly and professionally. Don't forget that you are at the mercy of mother nature and the elements, but what you expect when going 3/4 the way up the highest mountain on the planet? You will be advised what to bring, wear etc and rest easy that you have the best guiding team to make your dream come true. We were led by Mr Ganga and his assistant Mr Padam who took us from Namche bazaar to Base Camp. They know the mountains, nature and Sagamartha better than no-one else and we all loved the experience thanks to them. Memories forever and already looking forward to Nepalese return and this time to the Pokhara hiking areas. Namaste!

Amazing Experience and in great hands - Just finished the 13 day Everest Base Camp Trek and can say Prakash and team were spectacular from start to finish. Their business model allows the client to really immerse themselves into the experience while also having the confidence that they are in great hands. From airport pickup, accommodations throughout the trip, recommendations on what to do in Kathmandu, Prakash was a quick phone call away and extremely thorough. He even invited us to go to his house to celebrate Dashain which is the most important religious festival in Nepal. He really goes above and beyond for the comfort of his clients. I would highly recommend Prime Himalayas for trekking. The group leader Ganga and his assistant Podam are experts on the trekking trails and I always felt safe under their guidance. I would rate this experience a solid 10/10 and I am so glad to have picked an amazing company.

My 7 year Everest Base Camp dream fulfilled by a magical team - When genuine people come together, they deliver solutions in a magical way.. . Prakash and the Prime Himalaya team are always a step ahead planning in the client’s interest for the best possible experience. I had such a fantastic 12 days in the mountains fulfilling my 7 year long dream to see Mt. Everest and EBC. From promptly addressing pre trip queries, sorting airport transfers, hotel and accommodation, flights and heli transportation, and the all important 9 day trek led by one of the most talented expedition leaders Ganga and supported by fantastic Padam to see us successfully through the trail, preparing us for every challenge as the trail got more difficult and the body reacts adversely to higher altitude. Heartfelt gratitude for this amazing team on ground in Kathmandu and the ones higher up in the mountains, and the most important SupPorters without whom none of this would have been possible, the real mountain goats who transport your bags like ninjas between tea houses. I’ve made some amazing friends for life through this trek and look forward to reconnecting with them again through future adventures. 100% reliable, economical, experienced and talented.

Experience of a Lifetime - Once-in-a-lifetime trip that did not disappoint. I was traveling solo so naturally I was a little nervous about what I might encounter but everything from start to finish was well organized and exceeded my expectations. Prakesh greeted me upon all arrivals to Kathmandu and Ganga my guide along with the porters made sure it was a safe and comfortable trek. I was not expecting much when it came to the food and accommodations but it was great. The tea houses were all very comfortable and I felt very safe the entire time. Naturally weather plays a huge factor in the trek and even though we ran into some delays with it they took action to make sure we stayed on track with our itineraries. Our entire group made it to base camp and were surprised at the end with a fun champagne toast. I can't even describe the views you see on this trek and would recommend anyone with interest in booking with Prime. You will not regret it.

Incredible Trek to Everest Base Camp - One of the Most Amazing places on Earth, with the best tour agency for A Trek through The Himalayas to Everest Base Camp. Who could ask for more. The trek was incredible with views that pictures cannot do justice to. All our needs were met along the way by the Prime Himalayas crew and I can’t recommend them enough!

Everest base camp- Cho La Pass- Gokyo lake - I had the best experience of my life trekking the Everest base camp via Cho La Pass to Gokyo Lake. As a female solo traveller I was very worried at first, but Mr. Prakash kept on reassuring me not to be nervous about anything on the trek. My guide Padam and my porter Devendra were both exceptionally good and took great care of me. Especially crossing the Cho La Pass, my guide Padam helped me a lot, with his support I managed to cross it. I would highly recommend Mr. Prakash and his team to anyone doing this trek. They took great care of every little detail and I would certainly come back to Nepal for another trek with them.

Prime Himalaya is the best - We are a group of 11 hikers who completed a 11 day trek visiting Gokyo Lake, Chola Pass enroute to EBC. We were supported by Gunga as Trek Lead and Padam as Asst. Trek Lead who also carried 1 hikers pack while 5 other Porters carried 10 packs. Our tour operator Mr. Prakash of Prime Himalayas has worked with our lead in customizing our trek in such a way that it met all our requests and completed the tour in 11 days with choppers bringing us to Lukla on our return. I must say Mr. Prakash is the epitome of customer service.  Mr. Prakash listens to our requests fully and advised the best such that we were happy with the last minute changes. He also provided us with Welcome Dinner, Lunch at Everest View Hotel and a farewell dinner in Khatmandu. I do not know about other tour operators but I can confidently say that when you book your tour with Prime Himalayas you will get the best experience. Trek Lead Gunga is fully knowledgeable and very considerate of everyone's abilities or their lack of. He engaged with everyone at a personal level. Kadam is full of energy and is ready from morning till night, being the point on the trek and serving Tea, hot water and food whenever needed (mind you its not easy serving  11 fifty plus olds). I feel I am blessed to have these 3 people on this trek  and I highly recommend Prime Himalayas.

Splendid Experience of life time - Great company from the Guide(Ganga) and supporting guide(Padham). Ganga was inspiring. His love and passion for guiding, knowledge of his country and mountains are admirable. He who knows when to motivate one and understands the limits of every hiker along. Like eyes of Buddha on stupas - “He’s a silent guardian, a watchful protector” ;) Padham - go to guy. Cheerful, his Joyous smile hides so many hurdles, struggles. Always on toes to help and assist. Good companion with bag full of wits. Prakash- Motto is simple, get the hikers/tourist the best they can. Journey was one of kind, the gang, the guides made it all possible for each one of us.

Great experience! - I had a wonderful rewarding experience doing this hike alongside 10 other friends. Prakash and his team took care of us very well. Couldn’t have completed the missions without the guidance of guide Ganga and the relentless support from my brother Padam( Asst Guide). They both go above and beyond their duties to make hikers feel comfortable on the trail. Can’t thank and appreciate enough the efforts of supporters. Overall great experience and will recommend to anyone willing to hike Everest region . Keep up the good work. Will see you guys soon in another adventure.
