We were a family of three taking on the challenge of trekking to Everest Base Camp, and what an unforgettable journey it turned out to be — all thanks to Sherpa Expeditions, our incredible guide Phu Rinji, and our amazing porter Balaram. From day one, Phu Rinji made us feel like we were in the safest hands possible. With his calm presence, deep knowledge of the region, and genuine care, he guided us not just with his experience, but with his heart. As a family, it meant everything to know that someone was looking out for each of us — checking on our health, adjusting the pace when needed, and always encouraging us with kindness and patience. Balaram, our porter, was simply incredible. His strength, humility, and constant smile lit up every stop along the trail. He treated us like family, not clients. What truly touched our hearts was when they surprised us with fresh fruit — not just once, but several times during the trek. In such a remote and rugged environment, having a variety of fresh fruits was a luxury we didn’t expect — and it showed just how thoughtful and caring they both were. As we made our way through high altitudes and changing weather, we always felt safe. Every step was supported. Every concern was heard. They created a space where we could enjoy the beauty of the mountains and the strength of our family bond, without worry. Reaching Everest Base Camp as a family was emotional in itself, but sharing that moment with Phu Rinji and Balaram — who celebrated with us like old friends — made it even more special. Their happiness was sincere, and we’ll never forget that feeling. This wasn’t just a trek — it was a journey of trust, care, and deep connection. We are so grateful for everything they did to make this experience safe, comfortable, and unforgettable. If you are planning to trek as a family — especially to Everest Base Camp — we wholeheartedly recommend Phu Rinji and Balaram. They are not only professionals, they are kind, genuine people who will treat you like their own. Thank you, Phu Rinji and Balaram, from our whole family. You’ve given us memories that will last a lifetime.

MTA's itinerary enriched my spiritual experience of India at major religious sites throughout northern India. The guides were all knowledgable and helpful. I'm particularly grateful to my excellent drivers Shahid Kahn, on the Spiritual India tour, and Vimal Kumar, on the extension I requested to Jaipur and Agra, who kept me safe, secure and comfortable day after day in India's insane traffic.

Best places to start your Himalaya Mountains tour
Most Himalayan journeys start from Kathmandu - we've got 77 tours beginning there. You can also kick off from Paro in Bhutan with 11 different departures, New Delhi with 4 options and also Leh with 2 tours. Looking at our booking patterns, it's smart to lock in your trip about 4 months ahead (124 days to be exact), especially if you're aiming for October-November or March-April when conditions are just right and the trails get busy. Our travelers often mention loving spring treks in March-April when rhododendrons paint the hillsides pink, while October-November brings stable weather and local festivals that add something special to the journey. The tea houses along popular routes work well for most people - they're basic but welcoming, offering that perfect mix of comfort and local character. Just remember to build in some rest days; your body needs time to adjust to the altitude for a comfortable trek.

Best time to visit Himalaya Mountains
- Winter 2025 / 2026
Winter brings something special to Himalayan treks - you'll get clear mountain views without the usual crowds, though you'll need proper gear for the cold and might find some facilities frozen up high. Our travelers often mix their winter trips, starting with Kathmandu's city life before heading to Chitwan National Park where rhinos and tigers roam the warmer lowlands. The Everest Base Camp route stays open through winter with guides who know exactly how to handle the conditions. Many guests choose shorter treks near Pokhara, splitting their time between trail walks, cozy teahouses and also local activities like learning to make momos.

Spring covers the Himalayas in rhododendron blooms while offering perfect trekking weather. The Annapurna Circuit really comes alive March through May - our travelers love how it starts in lush forests down low and climbs up to snow-covered peaks. Everest Base Camp gets busy this season since the weather stays stable and the views run crystal clear. Many guests mix their spring treks with stops in old towns like Bhaktapur, where warm days make wandering through medieval squares and temples even better. As the snow melts, tougher routes through Manang Valley open up, letting you reach remote Buddhist monasteries and mountain villages right as the alpine flowers start showing.

- Summer 2026
Summer opens up fantastic routes through the Himalayas, and our travelers keep coming back for the Everest Base Camp treks. You'll stop at cultural gems like Tengboche Monastery, catch the soft morning light from Kala Patthar and dive deep into local life. The complete Nepal tours span 13-14 days with monastery explorations, Chitwan wildlife encounters and also rapids on the Trisuli River. The Ghorepani trek takes you through dense oak forests and traditional Gurung settlements, leading to sweeping mountain vistas. For summer hiking, the Annapurna Circuit delivers varied terrain, from green valleys up to the high passes at Thorong La. These routes blend physical challenge with authentic experiences, as you learn momo-making in local homes, join monastery meditation sessions and enjoy village performances when evening falls.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Fall hits the sweet spot for Himalayan trekking - our October and November trips fill up first every year. The Annapurna Circuit shines with clear skies that make crossing Thorong La pass easier, plus you'll find traditional village life along the trail. Many clients pick Everest Base Camp in autumn for the reliable weather and lively atmosphere when climbing teams head out. Poon Hill works well for shorter treks, giving you amazing sunrise views over the Annapurna peaks without needing technical skills. Our guides say fall brings the most dependable conditions for mixing high-altitude treks with cultural visits to places like Bandipur, Pokhara and also local festivals.

What Makes the Himalayas So Special?
The Himalayas are actually one of Earth's youngest mountain ranges if you can believe it formed by this incredible ongoing collision between Indian and Eurasian plates that's still happening today. They're growing about 0.5-2cm every year which might not sound like much but it's pretty remarkable when you think about it. What's really fascinating is how these mountains house over 15000 glaciers basically serving as Asia's natural water tower and they're so massive they actually influence weather patterns across the globe including those big monsoon systems. And of course there's Everest standing proud at 8848.86 meters making it the highest peak you'll find anywhere on Earth.
What Kind of Local Experiences Can You Join in the Himalayas?
When you're in Kathmandu you can actually learn Thangka painting from local artists it's this beautiful sacred Buddhist art form that tells amazing stories. The food scene is incredible too you can cook traditional Nepali dishes right alongside local families learning those century-old recipes like Dal Bhat which is this really hearty lentil soup. If you're heading to the Everest region don't miss joining a prayer ceremony at Tengboche Monastery it's quite a spiritual experience. For something really authentic try a homestay with a Gurung family in Hemjakot where you'll get to experience their traditional culture and architecture firsthand in the Annapurna region.
Where Are the Best Natural Areas to Explore?
You've got to check out Chitwan National Park in Nepal it's UNESCO listed and for good reason with its incredible wildlife including Bengal tigers and one-horned rhinos. You can explore by jeep canoe or even elephant rides and the birdwatching walks are fantastic. Then there's Sagarmatha National Park home to Everest itself where you might just spot the elusive snow leopard if you're really lucky. The best way to experience these parks is through organized treks with experienced guides who really know their stuff.
Which Hidden Gems Should You Not Miss?
There's this beautiful trek to Tango Monastery near Thimphu in Bhutan takes about 2-3 hours and the 13th-century monastery at the end is absolutely worth it. The Khamsum Yuellay Namgyel Chorten in Punakha Valley is another gem with this lovely hike through rice fields to reach it. For something more challenging but totally worth it head to Mardi Himal Base Camp in Nepal where you'll get these incredible views of Mt Machhapuchhre at 6997m and the whole Annapurna range.
What Local Food Should You Try?
You absolutely need to try Dal Bhat it's this amazing lentil soup that's basically the backbone of Himalayan cuisine you'll find it everywhere especially in those cozy teahouses along trekking routes. Momos are another must-try they're these delicious steamed dumplings filled with veggies or meat that you'll find all over especially in Kathmandu's street food scene. When you're in Kirtipur make sure to sample some authentic Newari cuisine like Choila which is this spicy grilled buffalo meat and wash it down with some Aila their traditional rice wine.
