The Vijaya stupa is good for short hiking. It is 2hr from swayambhu as I travelled from here. This is peaceful place and not so crowded. Not recommended in rainy seasons.

I was blessed to encounter Nature Trail in order to do the trek I wished. Since the first moment they tried their best to fulfill my wish, and this was to do the three pass trek in the Khumbu region. I immediately told them I had a problem, and this was the short time. In fact I only had 13 days to do a trek that usually takes around 15 to 17. Without any hesitations they asked me how I felt, if I was fit and if I thought I could skip some steps in order to make my wish come true. While still in Kathmandu I met with the manager Bishnu in order to organize the trip to the best of my needs and he was extremely understanding and helpful. The guide that I walked with was Dhruba, an experienced, capable and fantastic person with extensive knowledge of the region. He was always making sure of my conditions and asking me if I felt like walking this much and arrive to this destination. It wasn't sure until day 13 which was the path that we were going to do, it was personalized according to my well-being and desires every day. During the trek some really big blisters came to my ankles but the guide was fully equipped to medicate it and after to put band aids and other bandages to prevent it from hurting while I walked. At the end I managed to do the whole three passes in the 13 days, but this was only possible thanks to the guidance of Dhurba. He also has extensive knowledge on the mountain names, the local culture and the area you are walking in. You are not going to miss out on anything!!! So what are you waiting for, contact Nature Trail to have an amazing experience!

This was an absolutely amazing trip. Pasang arranged all the details for smooth transport from the airport to my hotel, where he and my guide updated me on additional info for the trek. Transportation and accommodations were all safe and comfortable. Great food at each of our stops. Pasang and Nema are both welcoming, with a great sense of humor, care for safety, and awareness of different levels of support that participants require. This trek is doable with moderate fitness level and some basic training. Pack light! I also brought a water bottle with a built in filter, which made it easy to fill up at the water foundations regularly along the path. Pasang went above and beyond and arranged a quick tour through some of the must see sites and stupas in Kathmandu before I had to get to the airport. I only had a short time to stay in Nepal this trip, but would definitely come back for a longer and more extreme adventure with Pasang and his crew. Cannot thank you enough for making me feel safe and comfortable on this trek!

If you think you want to go to EBC or any trekking adventure in Nepal you must use Nepal Trekking Planner. From my first inquiry, Dipak was very quick to communicate and answer all questions. He took care of every detail of the trip from airport pick up to setting additional nights in a hotel to ensuring I was able to get COVID testing per country requirements on entry and exit--- he truly personalizes each trip to your needs. They even run trips on select dates even if you are a solo traveler with no additional fees. Ananta was my guide and since it was just me he also portered my bags. I certainly left Nepal with people who I now consider dear friends, and I am so lucky to have had someone to keep me laughing and positive while on the trek. Ananta was amazing, and I honestly wouldn't have finished the trek if it wasn't for him. When I came down with altitude sickness and wanted to quit, he assessed my symptoms and encouraged me rest and let me know it would be better tomorrow-- which it definitely was. He pushed me and encouraged positive thoughts only which is truly what got me through the trek. Things with the government and a lockdown d/t COVID happened quickly while I was there and both Dipak and Ananta went above and beyond to ensure I could get back to the US before all international flights were shut down. Ananta never left my side and kept me calm while he was dealing with all my tears because I thought I was going to be stuck in Nepal for an unknown period of time. He was also such a trooper--even with a sprained ankle after a fall, he never complained and was still faster than me getting down the mountain! These two are a great team! and EBC is amazing! You have to go! and you have to go with Nepal Trekking Planner!

We had a wonderful experience with Himalayan Social Journey. They were extremely helpful in helping us organize our visit and visas for Nepal. Our wonderful driver Dilip was waiting for us at the airport upon arrival to bring us to the accommodations they had organized for us. We did a lovely day tour of Kathmandu and enjoyed our tour guide Dip very much. The Everest plane tour was everything we could have dreamed of and more. Every part of our journey was seamless and pleasant thanks to Himalayan Social Journey and their wonderful employees. They were even kind enough to organize a covid test for us after the tour before our return home. Everyone made us feel welcome and at home. Nepal is truly a unique and wonderful country and their hospitality was touching. We can not wait to return for another tour.
