Excellent
lifetime experience of Everest Base Camp Trek
My wife and I went for the Everest base camp trek, and our experience was exceptional. We couldn’t have asked for a better partner in this adventure other than Boundless Adventures. The team of Boundless Adventures always made sure everything was smooth and easy.
The accommodation provided was very comfortable, and the meals were delicious. The guide and the porters were knowledgeable and ensured we were comfortable throughout the trek. They were always available to answer any questions, and their expertise in the region was invaluable.
The trek was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and we couldn’t have made it to the base camp without the support of the Boundless Adventures team.
The breathtaking views and the sense of accomplishment we felt upon reaching the glorious Everest base camp are memories that will stay with us forever.
We highly recommend Boundless Adventures to anyone considering a trek to the Everest Base Camp. Their commitment to providing a high-quality, unforgettable experience shines through in every aspect of the trip.

Edventure Everest Base Camp Trek
We contacted Boundless Adventure while reaching Kathmandu. There were 2 of us who wanted to do the private trek to the Everest Base Camp Trekking at the last minute.
Luckily we contacted Dambar, and he arranged our Lukla flights, guide, porter, and accommodation briefly. We were so impressed by his professionalism.
Guide Kumar was so supportive and provided excellent service throughout the trekking. He made sure that everything went well during the trek.
My partner had breathing issues in Lobuche, but our guide quickly acted and helped him return to Pheriche. I joined in later after completing the Everest base camp and Kalapathar.
My partner made the trip by booking a helicopter from Pheriche to Kalapathar and back to Lukla. Mr. Dambar managed to rent a helicopter and took care of us impeccably. They are professional. We highly recommend them for your Holidays. Thanks
Małgorzata.
