Unforgettable experience in Upper Spring

This is the second time with the team of the World Alpine Treks in Nepal, walking up the mooring pond route. The landscape is beautiful (but there is also a lot of sand), the upstairs and downstairs are a lot, feeling a bit exhausted, fortunately, the leaders carefully took care of our food and accommodation issues.

Best Hikes Ever

I had a wonderful experience with World Alpine Tours. They treated me like royalty. They were prompt in picking me up and dropping me off at the airport. I had a wonderful guide Buddiraj Rai who was energetic, full of life and so much fun. I also appreciated his knowledge of the mountain and the local people.

We got into some snow trouble near base camp and World Alpine Tour took amazing care of giving me an extra day at no cost and then rearranging the helicopter ride, etc. I would highly recommend them for anybody interested in going to base camp at Everest.
I was 100% satisfied.

Best trekking experience ever!

Incredible from start to finish! Our ABC trekking with World Alpine Treks exceeded all expectations. The landscapes were jaw-dropping, and the team’s expertise made every step worthwhile. Our guide Deepak was knowledgeable and endlessly kind, and all our porters were a constant source of strength and positivity. This trip has truly enriched our lives, and we can’t recommend this team enough!
