  Had a wonderful 16-day Everest Base Camp experience through my trekking operator Himalayan Planet Adventures. I traveled alone during monsoon season (May 28 to June 12, 2013) and still got to see amazing views of the Himalayas despite the clouds and occasional rain. The whole trek made me fall in love with Nepal--awesome scenery, friendly people, delicious food.
  
  When I was researching on Everest Base Camp (EBC) trek packages as early as January 2013, what made me choose Himalayan Planet Adventures was the promptness and quality of communication I had with them from the very start. Naba was always quick to answer my numerous questions about the trek and he tremendously helped me in preparing for my trip and in deciding on the package I wanted.
  
  I've always felt I was in good hands with Himalayan Planet Adventures from start to finish. Madan, my guide, and Dhan Kumar, my porter, took excellent care of me during the 12 days we were together; I feel like I've really made such good and lasting friendships with them. All my concerns during the trail were taken care of, and Madan was always making sure that I was in good health (with Naba calling us now and then to check if I was feeling any altitude sickness!). Really top quality client service; I never had to worry much. Even when I was delayed in Lukla for a day (for my flight back to Kathmandu), both Naba and Madan were making sure I had a helicopter option should my flight not push through. I even had welcome and farewell dinners with the people of Himalayan Planet Adventure, and it was nice meeting all of them in their office in Thamel.
  
  A lot of trekkers choose to just hire a guide and a porter when they reach Nepal and then just pay for the accommodation and food along the way for 12 days. When I was computing for expenses before the trip, I found that the package Himalayan Planet offered me was much more cost-effective. It was such a good decision just to pay for everything on the spot when I reached Kathmandu; while I was on the trail, all the food, hot drinks and accommodation were already taken care of by Himalayan Planet. I didn't have to trouble myself by bringing along a huge wad of cash and paying for everything along the way.
  
  Teahouse accommodations were basic yet good; I always had a good night's sleep. Meals in the teahouse were of great quality. The servings were huge (I could hardly finish them), and I was always looking forward to delicious garlic soup and hot drink at the end of the day. The hotel in Kathmandu that came with the package is Hotel Shanker (which deserves a separate review)--wonderful location, hotel service and rooms.
  
  Such a great experience with Himalayan Planet; I would definitely contact them again when I visit Nepal next year for another trek! Feel free to message me for any questions about EBC and Himalayan Planet Adventures.

  I used the Internet to help me choose a company in Nepal to help me in my quest to hike in the Himalayas, since I don't know anyone in Nepal. I chose Himalayan Planet Adventures from the agencies I found. It turned out to be a successful trip, from the time I landed into their capable hands, until I got back to the airport to leave. They know their country, and their staff were most capable. I had a great time.

  A well organized trekking company in the central Thamel, Kathmandu, Nepal. They organized our volunteers group for Annapurna region trekking and our team is 100% satisfied with this company. They also provide best service with competative price and the experienced team make joyful to us. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company anytime. Superb trekking agency in Kathmandu.
