Client Reviews

It is my first ever trekking trip and the ABC route is challenging yet stunning. We started our tour in late March, with slight showers in the afternoon and snow up in the base camp. The view is absolutely breathtaking and I recommend everyone to visit it at least once in a lifetime. Nonetheless, we are happy to have Man Kumar as our guide, who is cheerful, friendly, and experienced. The itinerary, accommodations, and food are all well arranged;) Will surely come back! On a side note, remember to train yourself up a bit before the trip for an easier life haha

I went climbing the Mardi Himal trek as my first experience of properly climbing a mountain and it was awesome! The trek offered beautiful views along the way as well as the top. A truly amazing lifetime experience! And honestly makes me wanna explore more treks.

I also went for Chitwan Jeep and river safaris after the climb. We were lucky we got to see many animals in their natural habitat, such as wild rhinos, bears, deer, and crocodiles. It was a great experience too!

Props to Halesi Treks as our local guide for arranging both trips and assistance during the trip. The team from Halesi are very nice, helpful, and knowledgeable in facing the terrain in the mountain. Looking forward to another trip and thank you!

This was actually my very first experience to climb a mountain.
Previously I was only go one-day-trekking in Indonesia, but then I was doing mountain trekking for 5 straight days, moreover it was in Nepal!

Mardi Himal is really a hidden treasure. It is a less popular trekking route compared to ABC (Annapurna Base Camp) or Annapurna Circuit, but it didn't disappoint at all.
You can get views without the crowds. Stunning forests and rhododendron blooming along the way, and expect magnificent views of the Annapurna Mountain Range, including the fishtail of Macchapucchre peak!

Even more unforgettable were all the wonderful guides that helped make this experience come to life.
Special shoutout to HALESI TREKS who did very well in guiding us. With Dai (Brother) Man Kumar as the guide and two porters (Dai Jangbu & Yam), we got very enjoyable journey. They were so nice and helpful and always ready to assist us. They waited patiently when we needed to stop to catch our breath, and they were in tune with our needs the entire time.

Doing the Mardi Himal Trek can be a challenge, but I'm sure everybody can do it as long as you are fit enough. The difficulty level is easy to moderate, so it's a beginner-friendly trek route.
Even some elderly people went there, so you can do it too!
3,5 days going up and 1,5 days going down was not difficult compared to the worthy experience and majestic views.
I truly recommend it!

My wife and I did the Everest Base Camp trekking starting from Kathmandu on November 12 2022 and ending in Kathmandu on November 22 2022, the Halesi Treks team accompanied us during the trip.

During the trekking from Lukla and back to Lukla, Man Kumar Tamang as the leader of Halesi Trek provided the information and support needed for this hike. As foreigners who do not know local information, information support and the Halesi Treks network allowed us to make the EBC trekking smoothly and safely.

Information support from Halesi Treks relates to all aspects of trekking, for example the distance and time of trekking in one day, where to stay, food conditions and so on.

Halesi Treks has an extensive network, especially related to aviation. On day four, one of our team members had pneumonia, requiring emergency evacuation and Halesi Treks was able to arrange for a helicopter to pick him up. Our friend was picked up in Dingboche and driven to Lukla so as to avoid further risks.

Likewise, when we needed a helicopter pick-up from Lobuche to Lukla after ending the EBC climb, Halesi Treks was able to bring in a helicopter on time to take us to Lukla.

In addition to technical information support, Halesi Treks also provides personalized support and simple, uplifting services. For example, when in Namche I had gastric problems due to an ulcer, the Halesi Treks team managed to find the right medicine so that the stomach ulcers could be treated. My wife and I are very grateful for the personal support from the Halesi Treks team.

I can feel and tell you that the Halesi Treks team provided sincere and wholehearted service so that we could complete the EBC trek successfully, for that my wife and I would like to thank Halesi Treks, especially Man Kumar Tamang for all the support given so that we could make the trekking for 10 days safe and sound.

Thank you Halesi Treks.

Bucket list EBC trekking with my wife and a group of 8 great people we track almost 100 Km from Lukla to Everest Base Camp for 12 days. It was a journey of a lifetime. The majestic view of the Himalayas, the culture, the way the locals still use Yaks, Mules, and horses to transport goods, and the way it's been done for millennials. It was a strenuous journey that required us to be humble to nature, or it will beat us. Kumar and the team from Halesi treks made sure we were safe, well informed, and on the best route and accommodation. After a strenuous journey to the EBC, on the way home Kumar was able to pull a magical trick, and able to get us fly directly from Lukla to Kathmandu, which safe us a 5 hours bumpy road by bus!!! The team from Halesi Treks was phenomenal. They were essential to our safety and success to reach EBC with the best of memories. I would recommend them to anybody interested in makin this journey.. Thanks, Kumar, Santa, and the Team!!!

Halesi Treks is a partner of the Indonesian tour agency Halo Nepal. During our trip to ABC, Mr. Kumar, the founder of Halesi Treks, and his team managed the 7-day trek really well, by ensuring all participants (8 of us) arrived at the destination safely with secured accommodations and meals. Mr. Kumar has also been very helpful in helping us to fly down by helicopter and fly back to Kathmandu by plane, although these changes were not part of the plan. Overall, we would recommend Halesi Treks for your traveling experience in Nepal. Risa and Ikong
