The best months for this luxury trekking experience, considering the best weather, are October, November, and December. The second-best month in the spring season is March, followed by April and May. The monsoon season starts in Nepal in mid-June and ends by mid-September, so during these three months, the weather is not great. The trekking season begins in September, which means there are fewer hikers on the trail.

Hello Pasang,
Thanks for your email after our return home. We reached home and would like to thank you a lot for all the best service you have provided during our Nepal trip. We had a awesome vacation in Nepal. Every little service was handled well. Your guide, Rinji, is perfect and the porter is very helpful. The lodges you have booked are very nice. The helicopter ride back after the trek was enjoyable and it was nice to return to Lukla by helicopter rather than walk back the same route.
Thanks for all your great service. It was a great trip.
Sincerely,
Robert

I’ve wanted to do the Everest Base Camp trek for a long time, but I was specifically looking for a shorter and more comfortable option. After some research, I found that Nepal Trekking Tours offers a 12-day Luxury Everest Base Camp trek with a helicopter return to Kathmandu – and it was exactly what I was looking for!
To be honest, the trek wasn’t easy – we faced some bad weather conditions, and our flight to Lukla was canceled. But Pasang acted immediately and arranged a shared helicopter to Lukla, saving us precious time since my schedule was tight. His quick thinking and excellent organization truly made a difference.
Our guide, Pema Dorji, was fantastic – passionate, caring, and always attentive. Our porter stayed close behind us throughout the trek, always ensuring we were doing well and had everything we needed.
The lodges during the trek were top-class luxury, just as promised in the itinerary. The food and drink options were excellent – I could choose whatever I wanted, and there was always plenty of it. Every detail was thoughtfully planned to ensure maximum comfort.
Even before the trek began, Pasang was incredibly responsive – always quick to reply with accurate information and helpful planning tips. He personally welcomed me at the airport and hosted a wonderful welcome dinner on the first evening.
This trek was everything I hoped for and more. I highly recommend this 12-day luxury EBC trek with helicopter return to anyone looking for a shorter, high-comfort trekking adventure in Nepal.

To be honest, this was the most expensive Everest trek I’ve done, but also the most comfortable. I've been to Nepal five times, and this time I chose to trek with Pasang – and it was the right choice.
I always prefer rooms with private bathrooms and hot showers, and this trek delivered that for most nights. While Lobuche and Gorakshep (above 5,000m) don’t have hot water, the lodges are still the best available. Lodges up to Deboche were very comfortable, and Dingboche was nice, though not the top.
The luxury lodges, excellent meals, and top-class hotel in Kathmandu made it all worthwhile. Our guide Mingmar and the porter were both fantastic.
Pasang is a true expert in organizing luxury treks in Nepal, and I highly recommend his company to anyone looking for a premium experience.

Namaste Pasang and Team,
After completing our Everest Base Camp trek in October 2024, we are now back to work, but the memories of our journey in Nepal are still fresh in our hearts. On behalf of myself and my wife, we want to say a big thank you for your wonderful hospitality and excellent trekking services.
The Luxury Everest Base Camp Trek with helicopter return was the perfect choice for us. Our guide Mingmar and assistant guide Norbu were both young, kind, caring, and extremely helpful throughout the trek. Our porter was also incredibly supportive and friendly.
The hotel in Kathmandu and all the lodges on the trail were exactly as described in your itinerary – clean, comfortable, and welcoming. We especially appreciated the helicopter return after reaching EBC and Kalapatthar – it was a fantastic option, particularly for my wife, as we were quite tired by then. It made the end of our trek much easier and more enjoyable.
Overall, we had a truly amazing experience, and we’re already thinking about coming back for another adventure with your team.
Thank you once again for an unforgettable trek in Nepal!
With best regards,
Alex, Australia
