13 Days Everest base camp trek will give you immense pleasure to introduce you to a stupendous view of the world's highest peak. Perhaps by viewing Everest in this way, you will be fulfilling a long-held desire. Certainly, you will never be quite the same again. The Everest Base Camp trek has been a popular trip for all adventure seekers since the very first expeditions to the Nepalese side of Everest in 1953. Since the days of early expeditions, this 8,848m/29142ft. the mountain has had a lure of its own, drawing climbers to scale it and trekkers to gaze at its icy faces. The trek commences with a 35-minute flight from Kathmandu to Lukla which is adorned with a tiny airstrip from where the trek really begins. The trek passes through the homelands of the Sherpa people and will enjoy Buddhist monasteries and close-up views of Mt. Everest and neighboring peaks, considered by many to be among the most beautiful mountains in Nepal.

        Kailash Manasarovar Yatra June 2024
        We had an unforgettable experience with our Kailash Manasarovar Yatra organized by Ram Kumar Ji. We are a private group of 12 people from USA. Since our first contact with Ram Kumar Ji to numerous zoom calls to personally meeting him in Kathmandu prior to the start of our journey and through out our journey he was always responsive and patiently answered all our questions. The journey was arranged flawlessly.He was able to accommodate Charan Sparsh when we asked him late in the planning process.All the accommodations were as promised . The food was excellent . We had fresh food, unlimited tea, coffee and drinks through out our journey . The staff - both Nepali and Tibetan are truly amazing - every single one one of them truly care for you and take such good care of you - it is because of them that we could complete the journey - Samir, Tikaram, Mangal, Tamdin, Dawa, Bhute . They were able to accommodate a last minute change in the itinerary also and bring us back safely to Kathmandu . Please look no further - you are good hands. Ram Kumar Adhikari Ji and his team do a fabulous job of arranging the Kailash Manasarovar Yatra! Om Namah Shivah🙏🏽

        Kailash trip(Kora Trek), July, 2024
        Our Kailash trip was great overall.Everything went as planned without a hitch. Initially i was bit sceptical and nervous about what to expect as i was travelling alone from Malaysia but Mr. Ramkumar and his crew members made the process smooth and seamless. I had an absolutely fabulous time with US people and i never felt alone. We are all happy that we did it and i'd strongly recommend it to anyone. The crew members were amazing.. Such a kind people they are..We are all so appreciative of everything you and your team members did for us❤️

        Great experience.
        Using Alpine Eco Trek & Expedition, our group travelled to the Kailash Manasarovar Yatra. The top team of Mr. Ram Kumar's staff was offered. Throughout our journey, they looked after us by preparing delicious meals and acting as our porters and guides. At the end of our vacation, it was difficult to say goodbye because we felt so connected to them. Ram Kumar's preparation and leadership made the entire trip a success. Each of us received individual attention from Mr. Ram Kumar. He is patient and quite modest. He set up a trip for me to Mukthinath and provided a good guide, so I personally owe him a great thank you. ensured my comfort and sense of safety.

        Great Experience
        Did Kailash/Mansarovar yarta with Alpine Eco Trek in early May 2024. Ram Kumar (the owner) was very helpful in answering the questions and resolving any issues that came up. During the yatra the whole team was very helpful and made sure everyone was comfortable and safe.

        Blessed Kailash-Mansarovar Yatra
        Our Kailash Mansarovar trip took place from May 14 to May 29, 2024, and we arranged it through Alpine Eco Trek. Our experience with Ram Kumar Adhikariji, the owner of the travel group, has been amazing from the very beginning. He was always very responsive and patiently addressed all our queries. Our group consisted of 12 people, and he ensured that everyone was comfortable embarking on this holy but tough pilgrimage. Ram Kumarji's team was equally exceptional and made sure we were comfortable throughout the journey. We kicked off our holy yatra with a fantastic six-day stay at the Kathmandu Business Hotel. This place set the perfect tone for our trip, and the staff went out of their way to make us feel right at home. They even personalized our meal menus and catered to our love for 'kadak chai'. Prakriti, Sanjana, Rajendra, Sachin, and the rest of the team made sure we were comfortable throughout our stay. Praveen, our tour guide in Nepal was also very informative and helpful. Our group followed a well-planned itinerary that included intermittent adjustments to higher altitudes for climate acclimatization. When it came to the trek, the team led by Ram Kumarji, along with our awesome tour guides Sameer, Tikka, Mann, and Tam-Din, along with others, played a crucial role in the success of our Kailash yatra. These gentlemen were always around, ready to serve with a smile. From preparing mouthwatering meals to ensuring everyone's tea or coffee preferences were remembered, they looked after us. They even helped us navigate the tough terrain with steep inclines and declines. Some of our group members felt the effects of the high altitude and needed to be moved to lower altitudes. Thanks to Tam-Din, our point of contact from China, these members were taken care of and attended to personally. His caring and attentive approach put everyone at ease. Ram Kumarji provided us with detailed information about what to expect on the trip. We felt well-prepared and in good hands with the team members. Ultimately, they became part of our group and felt like extended family. Ram Kumarji extended all courtesies to our group, including after-hours laundry service and his humble nature made it very easy to interact with him. He was also very receptive to feedback and made adjustments as needed. Our Yatra was blessed in that we had perfect weather throughout the parikrama and clear darshan of Mahadev's home, till the very end! We highly recommend reaching out to Alpine-Eco Trek for any trekking needs, especially for the Kailash-Mansarovar Yatra. If we are fortunate enough to visit Kailash again, we will definitely reach out to Ram Kumarji.

        Amazing trip to Kailash and Manasarovar
        The Kailash trip organized by Alpine eco tours owned by Ramkumar Adikari and team was an amazing experience. It was a seamless integration of multi country tour and kudos to the team for making it work. I have no hesitation in recommending this team

        Amazing Mt. Kailash Experience
        In September 2023 I traveled to Mt Kailash and Mt. Everest Base Camp with Alpine Eco Trek and Expedition. I couldn't have asked for a better person arrange this trip than Ram. I spoke to him several times before the trip and he adressed all my questions and concerns. During the trip anytime concerns arose he also patiently addressed everything. If you are planning on visiting Mt. Kailash or another destination serviced by Alpine Eco look no further. I am very confident you will be happy you selected this agency for your pilgrimage or hoilday.

        Amazing trip - great guide
        Tibet, China and Mt Kailesh custom tour/pilgrimage. The trip was incrediable. Was able to join a small group at the last minute and visited the highlights of Tibet- Mt Everest, Shigatse, Lhasa, Lake Manasarovar and Mt. Kailesh entering from Nepal on a customized tour. Alpine Eco Trek and Expedition was amazing getting everything organized, visas, info on Nepal and Tibet. Ram's attention to detail and personal touch before, during and after the trip was great. The guide Kul in Tibet was wonderful, English was great and he provided great insight to Today's tibet and places we visited. He took care of everyone’s health when needed and made sure we were entertained during the long car rides. For the pilgrimage he was very attentive and kept us focused on the trek, helping us reach 5600 meters and the rest of the pilgrimage. Would highly recommend Ram and Alpine to arrange Tibet and Nepal trips.

        My Memorable Kailash & EBC Trip
        If you are planning for Kathmandu and Tibet trip, I would recommend Alpine Eco Trek & Expedition. Mr. Ram arranged the best trip for me that included EBC, Lhasa, Lake Mansarovar and Mt. Kailash. He tailored his standard trip to ensure that I got to spend the right amount of time at every place. Another advantage of working with Mr. Ram is that except for the advance payment to book the trip, one does not pay the rest till everything is confirmed for the trip. Other tour organizers want all the money ahead of the final confirmations on things like China allowing tourists to arrive in Tibet. I have lost my money with another tour company in Nepal years ago when the whole trip got cancelled due to the 2015 earthquake. Mr. Ram’s arrangement for the Tibet section was flawless. We had a great guide, Mr. Dawa and a very good driver, Mr. Lopsang. They were both very professional, friendly and accommodating. I am already recommending them to my family and friends for any trip in Nepal & Tibet.

        Kailash Kora perfect experience
        Ram made our dream to trek Kailash Kora come through! The whole tour was organized excellent and we always felt everything was arranged and planned in advance. We spent couple of days in Kathmandu prior to leaving for Tibet, as we needed to wait for visa and permits. These couple of days went by easily, all was organized as agreed and he also took us out for diner! Due to heavy rains and landslides we took his advice and decided to go with helicopter to the border. Ram supported this and introduced us to a wonderful guy, pilot who took us to the border with one stop due to bad weather. Though it was m y first experience in the helicopter, i really felt i am in safe hands. Ram joined us as well and that also made the whole trip even better! Organization of our transport and support in China was also excellent. We wanted to do some changes in the itinerary of our return to Nepal, Ram organized all within couple of minutes! Amazing! Doing the Kailash Kora was an amazing experience, both physical and spiritual. Having Ram for support, allowed us to fully grasp the beauty of Kailash and not waste any time or energy on organization! I am sure that if life ever takes me back to Nepal I will ask Ram to organize the trip!

        My Perfect Trip to Tibet and Mount Kailash
        My wife and I did a combination tour to Tibet/Everest Base Camp and Mount Kailash. Ram Kumar and his staff did a perfect job organizing this trip and making sure that it ran smoothly. He also found us a great Tibetan guide (named Dawa) who not only guided us through Tibet, but also attended to all of the security and administrative concerns related to traveling through that region. I have traveled to many places and used many tour services and Ram Kumar and his staff are probably the most professional and friendly group that I have ever dealt with. Regards, Absylom (New York)

        Firstly my sincere bow down to Mr ram whom patiently crafted my visit with so much passion and devotion in heart ❤️ with only focus to make my 13 years fasting and sadhana to come through despite massive challenges ...it happen because of only his determination. His team Mr binay Nepalese and ms dorka tibetian , understand my state of being and corporate the most suitable needs for my travel. A GOOD TOUR COMPANY LIKE ALPINE ECO , MAKE YOUR JOURNEY VERY MEANINGFUL FROM THE START. TRUST AND CARE is their main focus. They delivered and they equally shared my prayers and fulfillment to complete my KORA in kailash. SHIVA SHAMBHO lived in each one of them through out my KORA . The freedom they gave me to be myself and paid utmost attention. Well done guys , I will not think twice to visit again for my inner kora and explore more of nepal & himalayan range. This company must be addressed by board of tourism and appreciate Mr RAM & TEAM. My sincere gratitude ..-Sara - MALAYSIA -

      Such an unforgettable experience with gorgeous scenery, great food, and good company. Ram helped us the entire way even through our stay in Kathmandu- our itinerary was sent to us beforehand so we knew what to expect. During the trek we had the best guide as well who made sure our experience was flawless, he was instrumental in getting us good places to stay upon arrival at each town, and was very flexible also when the itinerary had to change a bit. It is crucial to have a good guide and a good company organizing this trip and I couldn’t recommend Alpine Eco Trek enough!

      Alpine Eco Trek & Expedition are amazing!! They gave our group of four an incredible experience on every level. The Khumbu region is no joke and our guide Sujan made sure we were taken care of every minute of the day. He is truly an amazing guy, and I hope you get to meet him. A lot can go wrong when you’re trekking at over 5k meters elevation but Sujan was prepared for every eventuality. Laid back and every bit an expert mountaineer, Sujan really went above and beyond to help provide our group with the trek of a lifetime. I should also mention that everyone we encountered in the company was outstanding: from Ram, the owner, to our 4x4 driver, and of course our intrepid and exceptionally kind porters, I can’t say enough good things about Alpine Eco Trek & Expedition. Book with them. “Zam zam!”

      In late September this year (2023) I took a 15 day (14 night) overland trip from Nepal to Tibet...and return, including EBC and Mt. Kailash kora .
      As I had previously visited Tibet in 2018, I was initially planning to go with the same Tibetan agent I had then used, but unfortunately their trip dates didnt suit my schedule.
      Therefore, I randomly searched here on TA for some Nepal based agencies with excellent reviews, as I could then combine my regular trip to Nepal with another visit to Tibet.
      Ram Adhikari's agency 'Alpine Eco Trek & Expedition' really stood out against the others and I contacted him via his Whats App phone number.
      I also noted the itinerary they offered gave additional days for acclimatisation in Tibet, and the price was very reasonable.
      Some regular conversations over several months followed, where Ram would address all my questions in a very prompt and informative manner, either by phone call on WA or email.
      I particularly liked the itinerary Ram and his agency provided, allowing our small group of 6 to experience the full moon at Lake Manasarover before driving on to do Mt Kailash kora. The late September/early October dates delivered us perfect weather throughout our trip of 15 days.
      I returned to Nepal and met Ram in person and I immediately felt at ease and confident with my choice of agents.
      As a regular to the country, and therefore wishing to make my own arrangements for accommodation and time spent in Kathmandu, Ram was more than happy to adjust my tour price accordingly.
      All aspects of the visa and permit process for China/Tibet were handled by Ram in a smooth, stress free and efficient manner.
      We drove in 2 jeeps from Ktm and were met at the border on Tibet side by our wonderful kind, gentle, caring and knowledgeable Tibetan guide Tashi and safe and careful van driver Mingma.
      At all times I felt safe in our van as Mingma expertly negotiated winding high passes and 1,000's of km's of good roads within Tibet.
      Tashi was absolutely amazing and so fun to be with, patiently dealing with personalities and anything that came up along the way.
      Ram followed our progress closely from Kathmandu, available at all times if anyone needed to contact him.
      Our group had mixed fitness levels, and some chose the option to ride a horse on the kora. Tashi would one minute be up the front checking on the fastest walkers, the next checking on those behind........to make sure everyone was doing, and more importantly... feeling well. He must have walked at least double, if not triple the 52km kora route. lol
      We had some flexibility in our itinerary along the way and everyone was happy with the arrangements and adjustments we made as a group.
      We saw and did so much without feeling too rushed, and the accommodation choices that Ram had made for us exceeded our expectations.
      In Lhasa I personally wished to stay at the hotel I had stayed in on my previous visit and Ram respected my choice and organised that option for me.
      Without hesitation I can thoroughly recommend Ram Adhikari and his agency
      'Alpine Eco Trek & Expedition'.
