Our recent trek to Everest Base Camp via Gokyo with Ace the Himalaya was nothing short of extraordinary. From start to finish, they demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise.
Our guide, Pasang, was a great support. His knowledge of the terrain and unwavering commitment to our safety made every step of the journey feel secure. As a Sherpa, Pasang’s insights into the region’s culture and surrounding mountains added depth to the experience, making it more enriching.
I’m also grateful to our porters, Gopal and Jivan, whose strength and cheerful support were invaluable throughout the trek. They went out of their way to ensure the trek was a success for us and even went as far as carrying our day packs on the more challenging days.
The 14-day trek (17 days total) was well-planned. Although accommodations were basic, they exceeded expectations (considering where we were). The scenery, especially from Gokyo Ri and Kala Patthar, was breathtaking, while challenges like Cho La Pass added excitement. Although it’s more challenging, I would highly recommend the Gokyo to EBC trek for better views and for travelling off the beaten path.
Ace the Himalaya’s organisation and communication were excellent, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish. Overall, I give Ace the Himalaya, our guide (Pasang) and Porters (Gopal and Jivan) a perfect 10/10 and highly recommend them for anyone seeking an unforgettable Himalayan adventure. Thank you, Ace the Himalaya and team, for an unforgettable journey!
