I had the incredible opportunity to embark on a once-in-a-lifetime journey to Everest Base Camp, and I cannot express enough how amazing the experience was, thanks to Bhoj, and the entire tour service. From start to finish, Bhoj went above and beyond to ensure my trip was safe, comfortable, and unforgettable.

Bhoj took care of every detail, from the moment I arrived in Kathmandu until I returned after completing the trek. His attention to my needs was exceptional—he arranged guest houses, meals, and even helped me get a local SIM card so I could stay connected with my friends and family throughout the journey, even at the highest points of the trek. His thoughtfulness and dedication made me feel supported and cared for every step of the way.

The porter Bhoj arranged for me was equally incredible—strong, reliable, and always ready to assist. His strength and hard work made the trek significantly easier for me, allowing me to focus on enjoying the breathtaking views and the journey itself. Together, Bhoj and the porter made an unbeatable team, and I couldn’t have asked for better companions on this adventure.

Thanks to Bhoj’s expertise, professionalism, and kindness, I was able to fulfill a lifelong dream of reaching Everest Base Camp. He truly made my bucket list dream come true, and I am forever grateful for his guidance and support. If you’re planning a trek to Everest Base Camp, I cannot recommend Bhoj and this tour service enough. They are simply the best, and I would not hesitate to travel with them again. Thank you, Bhoj, for an unforgettable experience!
