Adventure & Travel

  We had a great trip. Ace was fantastic to deal with. From start to finish the staff at Ace, from drivers to porters to our guide to the office staff... read more were wonderful. Their highest priority was making sure we had a safe and enjoyable experience. They were professional, friendly and a great group to work with. Traveling during COVID presents some hurdles, but Ace was there at every step to make sure all requirements were met and we were safe and secure. I would highly recommend Ace to anyone making a similar trip. We certainly will use them again if we get back to Nepal. Thanks Ace -- you guys were great!!!

  This trip was probably one of the best I've ever taken. My friend and I went on this adventure in April, what we thought was the tail end of COVID,... read more but we had every tea house and the whole trail all to ourselves. We booked with ACE a year before but it was cancelled due to the COVID outbreak. ACE was extremely easy to work with and rebooked our trip for us right away without penalty. They were supportive and available for questions from booking up until the day we flew out. We even had some issues with visa's but the whole team was quick to get paperwork together to get us in the country. We got very lucky and wouldn't have been able to get to Nepal without them! Our guide, Depace, was the best! Our porter, Kieran, was great company as well. Although he didn't speak much English, we were able to communicate enough and had Depace as our translator. Since it was just us on our trip, we often all played cards together after our trek and learned/taught each other our favorite games. We even learned some Nepalese words! Our team took great care of us and made sure we were having a good time, fed and fueled. They were a great support system to us when we were tired and wanted to break. One of the days, we even ventured a little further to get a couple extra miles in! Since it was just us, they offered to take us a little bit of a different route home if we wanted. We continued on the original route, but the fact that they offered made us feel special. We would definitely come back and book with ACE again. Easy from start to finish. Thank you, team!!!! …

  I took 10 friends to here 5 died on he way here YAAAAAAAA i didn't like them anyway one of my friends desisted to bring his dog when we... read more made it to camp we had a fun time then the rest of my friends got kidnaped and the kidnapper left me a not saying save the dog or your friends of course i picked the dog then me and the dog made it safely down i didn't like any of the friends i brought with me so i took them there so there will die hired a hit man and 5 just died now i got his dog YAAAAAAAAAA go here is if you want to kill you non friends or to have a good time

  I had a great experience with Ace the Himalaya on April 2021. I was inicially looking for a female guide, being a solo female traveler, but when I couldn’t find... read more one, I talked to Sajiya, from the Ace the Himalaya office and she assured me I wouldn’t have any issues with one of their guides. She was able to arrange for the trek to start the very next day and everything went smoothly. Both Madan, my guide, and Pream, our porter, were great and really professional. Pream made sure I always had a room with a great view and Madan was informative and attentive. We were lucky with the weather, and the pandemic, and made it safely to base camp and back, with amazing views along the way. I’m sure I wouldn’t have made it without their assistance. Madan even helped me get a flight to Pokhara right after the end of our trek and kept track of me when the pandemic started to worsen in Nepal. I had to cut my travels in the country short, but at least my whole experience on the EBC trek was perfect, much thanks to Ace the Himalaya, which I highly recommend.

  I had reached out/been working with Ace since 2019 - when I originally started planning our EBC trek honeymoon (initially booked for March of 2020). Sajiya and Prem were so... read more responsive and helpful (over the course of almost 2 years!!) - they answered all of my detailed emails and questions, and made us feel comfortable in proceeding with our trip. We had postponed our trip three times, and we had countless flight changes - Ace was always so accommodating and flexible - working with us and giving us guidance to continue forward with safely finalizing our travel plans during the pandemic. Sajiya/Prem alleviated any stress we had with organizing this trip.

Fast forward to March of 2021 - we finally got to Kathmandu to kick off our trip! Everything from pickup at the airport, the trek itself, and COVID testing at the hospital afterwards was seamless. Nimesh (our guide) picked us up at the airport and transferred us to our hotel (Thamel House - which was great location/a nice place to stay). He briefed us and brought us to Sajiya the next day for our predeparture meeting, Sajiya was very informative and gave us her number so we could reach out to her throughout the trip with any questions/concerns/changes to itinerary that she could help with. The fact that we traveled during COVID, it was just my fiance and I on the trek with Nimesh & Gopal (our porter). One of the benefits of traveling during COVID and trekking solo with our guide and porter is that they were able to customize the trip specific to our day to day progress (if we needed another day to acclimatize, or push us to further distance to start acclimatizing sooner/etc.). Nimesh made us feel so comfortable and helped us successfully complete this trek by being tuned into our health day to day and modifying the trek as he thought best for us to complete successfully. I can't say enough about Nimesh and Gopal - I don't think we could have done the trek without them. Nimesh was very informative throughout the trek and was honestly just a pleasure to walk and trek with over the course of two weeks. The tea houses and people we stayed with were so friendly, and exceeded my expectations (the food was delicious - we stuck to dal bhat, fried rice/noodles, and garlic soup). On acclimatization days/hikes - Gopal had tagged along to make sure he was there to help and always offered to carry our daypacks when he could tell we were struggling. The trek was a trip of a lifetime and I am honestly so sad to be sitting at home writing this review, since that means it is over! The trek flies by, so make sure to appreciate each day as it comes & don't take anything for granted - before you know it you'll be on a flight back to Kathmandu from Lukla blinking your eyes wondering where the time went!

For those of you reading this and contemplating this trek - hesitate no further, book Ace and plan your trip now!! A benefit of booking this trip now, is the fact that since we trekked during COVID - there weren't many people and we had the trails to ourselves. It was really magnificent to trek and see the views without dealing with traffic jams of people (only yaks :)). That said, the one thing to be prepared with if booking now is that since there are less tourists, the tea houses will be emptier and although this is the safer alternative during COVID - just be prepared that you will have more downtime and you may miss out on meeting and hanging out with other trekkers. I still think the pros far outweighed that one con & now this just gives us an excuse to plan the trek during high season with more trekkers in future years :).

Also, really - can't say enough about Nimesh - he went above and beyond and was always willing to help us however he could. Even upon completion of the trek, he came with us to the hospital for COVID testing to make sure we got all that was needed for a safe departure home and helped with getting our test results/etc.

All in all - great trip and the Ace team made it possible. Highly recommend - please book with them, they'll make sure you have the trip of a lifetime!

  My fiance and I had originally planned to hike to EBC for our honeymoon in March 2020, but because of covid everything got pushed back. We decided to move foward... read more with the trip a year later despite everything goin on and what a great decision it was. ACE did everything possible to make us feel safe and secure as far as covid 19. So there was no issue on that front. The trek it self was amazing from start to finish. Our guide Nimesh was very knowledgeable and friendly, it felt as if we were trekking with a friend. Our porter Gopaul was also awesome, carrying the bags and moving even faster then we were. Any questions we had , he had the answer to and even on days I was being sluggish, he gave me the confidence to keep going. All the arrangements he sent up from the tea houses were great. The food on the trip was surprising to me, I thought it would be bland but every meal we had was delicious. The del bhat, fried rice, garlic noodle soup, all quickly became favorites. If you are on the fence about going during covid i would say do it. On the mountain you have nothing to worry about, and you have the place to your self since there are limited amount of trekkers. I would highly recommend the trek and highly recommended nimesh as a guide if he is available.

  I had a great time with the Ace team. My guide Krish was just awesome. I can highly recommend it!!!! Trip of a lifetime. Everything was perfect.

  I cannot recommend Ace enough. Every aspect of this trip has been amazing. Not only the trek, but their assistance before, during, and after the trek was incredibly helpful (especially... read more during COVID). From the first time I contacted them, they were extremely responsive and informative - they helped ensure that my wife and I had all the requirements to travel from the USA to Nepal with all the covid related restrictions/requirements in place. They even helped with accommodations for our extra nights in Kathmandu (outside of the 14 day trek), as well.

My wife and I and were the only two trekkers on our trip. So it was us two, our guide Raj, and our porter Sauman. We were nervous going into this trek as we are pretty inexperienced. However, Raj and Sauman were extremely helpful and definitely helped us to reach our goal of making it to EBC. We couldn’t have done it on our own - their assistance, guidance, and entertainment were priceless. We truly had a great time with them and are so grateful for everything they did. They did everything they could to ensure we had everything we needed and that we were feeling good and thinking positive!

The entire staff at Ace is so kind and willing to go out of their way to help their clients. Traveling from the USA to Nepal (and back) during COVID was not entirely easy. Ace made the process SO much better and smoother.

Again, I don’t think my wife and I would’ve made it to EBC without the guidance and knowledge of Ace’s staff, especially Raj and Sauman. We are eternally grateful for everything they did making this the trip of a lifetime. We will never forget it!!

  Trekking to Everest Base Camp with Ace The Himalaya was an experience of a lifetime. Every single aspect of the journey was managed to perfection. Upon arrival at the airport,... read more our guide was waiting to pick us up. He took us to our hotel, got us settled, and informed us of our next steps. Before starting our trek, we met with the Operations Manager of Ace to discuss in detail the trek and what we should expect. She was extremely thorough and left us with every question we had answered. The trek itself was incredible. Our guide, Raj, and porter, Sauman, were the best. They were funny, knowledgeable, and were an absolute pleasure to trek with. They made sure we had everything was just right and went above and beyond to make sure our every need was met. If you get the pleasure to trek with Raj and Sauman you will have one of the best experiences of your life. After the trek was completed we had a post-meeting with the Operations Manager to discuss how the trek went. Ace even helped us set up transportation to and from the hospital to get a PCR COVID test needed to depart for our home country 5 days AFTER our trek was completed. I highly highly recommend Ace The Himalaya if you want a trek to Everest Base Camp that will leave you with an experience that was better than you could have ever imagined.

  This is my first time trekking, no experience. Mr Pasang Dawa Sherpa was helpful and an amazing guide. What really stood out for me was his caring attitude... read more he had when I had no more energy to walk. I felt extremely protected and cared for. Mr Pasang Dawa Sherpa is an enthusiastic, knowledgeable and experienced guide. I would trust him with my life any day. Special shout out to my “buddy” and porter Mr. Gharva Rai, thank you so much for the boost. Both gentlemen were very accommodating and encouraging on the trek. As a solo female trekker I have never felt more safe in my life. Both gentlemen has become part of my family, Love you guy’s! Accommodation and food were excellent. Never drank so much black tea in my life. Ace The Himalaya is a very welcoming company. Organized itinerary and very affordable. All the staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Highly recommending this awesome company.

  These guys are ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!

I can't believe that I could trek up to Everest Base Camp in 2020!! I made several calls, sent even more emails,... read more and they were the only ones who replied once Nepal opened towards the end of the year. They made it happen for me, and I couldn't be more grateful to them.

I had the opportunity to trek alone, on a deserted trail, and see Everest in all of its pristine beauty with nothing but peace and the great local people around. It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, and I knew it would be good, but not THIS GOOD!

My guide, Madan was THE MAN! Ask for him by name, but I'm sure he's booked up for a long time; he is that cool. He will keep you safe and entertained the entire time you are on the trail. He will show you the way and some of the out-of-the-way spots as well. My porter was great as well! Let me know if they have got any better at playing rummy! Oh, and try the frozen honey!

I couldn't have asked for a better trip at any time, but especially during a time when this was not supposed to happen. I thought my dream of doing this was going to have to be put to bed, but it happened in the small window I had left to do it and now I have a lifetime of memories to appreciate.

Look no further than Ace the Himalaya for any of your trekking experiences. Prem and his staff will make sure you are well taken care of.

  I completed this trek with Ace in December. During COVID! And I sort of booked it at the last minute too.

Everything about the experience was fantastic. From... read more the second I first reached out about going on a trek, Ace was extremely responsive and helpful. They were especially great in helping me figure out and organize all of the logistics around COVID. They continued to be super helpful and diligent when I arrived in Nepal. It was so nice not to have to worry about securing my own transportation to the hotel, to the COVID test or to the airports.

The trek itself was also incredible. Basically as soon as we started hiking I thought to myself "this is already one of the best experiences of my life". Because of COVID (and also because I went in December), the route was practically empty. I ran into only a handful of other tourists the entire time. It was pretty incredible to feel like I had the trail to myself. Because the trail (and also the guesthouses) were so empty, I felt extremely safe and comfortable from a COVID perspective. To be honest, I basically forgot that COVID existed the entire time I was trekking.

My guide and porter, Milan and Soman, were also just the best. They made me feel like I was hiking with friends.

  It was the first experience for my wife and me to hike to Everest Base Camp in October 2019. All the experience with Ace the Himalaya from our arrival, trek... read more and departure was so convenient and professional! They really took care of us during our stay and hike. We were way more than satisfied with their services. Specific shout out to Milan (our trek guide), Amin (co-guide / porter) and Sajiya (customer service) who we now considered as friends, not just our service providers. We miss you guys and really hope to return to Nepal in near future!

  I trekked to Annapurna Base Camp with my boyfriend in February and let's just say that I was nervous about it, having never done any trekking on this scale before.... read more But our guide Krish was brilliant and we were so well looked after. In the mountains I've never seen views like it, I can't recommend it enough. We also stayed in Pokhara for a night and I never wanted to leave! We were so lucky to get there before the lockdown, but we'll definitely be using the company again for our next adventure. Thanks a million.

  Travelled with Ace in January to Everest base camp. - fantastic from start to finish. krish was our guide and was an inspiration. What an amazing company.

  The Everest Base Camp Trek with Ace the Himalaya was one of my favourite trips of all time. Our guides (Bharat and Manoj) were incredibly professional and knowledgeable, which allowed... read more me and my family to fully immerse ourselves in this once in a lifetime experience. If you ever wish to visit Nepal or the Himalayas, be sure to go through Ace!

We completed this trek in 2011, and we have returned to Nepal several times since then to support Ace's partner charity, Sambhav Nepal, which is focused on improving the quality of education, healthcare and opportunities to people in the Gorkha region of Nepal.

  Had a great trip. A small group with very competent and experienced guide and porters. Raj the guide was extremely helpful to everyone in the group helping when we experienced... read more altitude sickness or had any other illnesses. Accommodation and food were excellent considering the locations on the trek. The porters Krishna and Dar Pan did a sterling job carting our packs always smiling and joking with us. Raj seemed to know everyone we met on the trek and always joking with us and the tea house staff. Also helped us immensely when Nepal closedthe borders due to Covid19 meaning that we got back to Australia safe and sound.
An excellent trip, looking forward to another with Ace perhaps next year. Five star plus.

  The magnitude of completing an EBC trek is not fully realised until days and weeks or reflection are absorbed.

Our Ace manager Sajiya briefed us comprehensively on trekking conditions... read more and our schedule prior to departing, and organised our resort accommodation (upon request) at our return. Her attention to detail is reassuring to say the least, we had absolute confidence in her helmsmanship of Ace from there on in. For our first experience abroad, in hindsight, we wouldn't change a single detail.

Picked up in the late evening from the airport by our plucky guide Deepesh, it became evident that his ownership of our Himalayan experience was personal. He sold the total package of EBC on his amicable, unflappable conduct. Throughout the entire trek Deepesh was right about wherever you needed him to be, whatever the requirement. His converse with the porters and hosts was on par, and he always negotiated an accord in our favour.

One of the Himalayan heroes was our porter Kumar, always making himself available as the personal host. Many times Kumar would return unladen from despatching our baggage at accommodation and assist a struggling group member by taking a daypack or offering stimulating support. Having being blessed with good fitness, some days I delighted in catching up to Kumar climbing a pass during the days trek which would draw a chuckle and a positive response.

In reflection our EBC advice is to go with Ace, go hard, go prepared and go without expectations. Because the real reward will come later, reflecting on your journey a lifetime away in the warmth and comfort of your humble daily existence

  Best choice for Everest base camp trek!!! Sajiya at the office is very responsive to all of your questions and concerns about any detail of your trip. My guide Jag... read more was amazing!! I highly recommend him! He is very professional and knowledgeable about all aspects of the trek!! Everything we did was to ensure that my health and safety were secure in order for me to reach the base camp. Also I was stuck in Nepal during the coronavirus lockdown and everyone from Ace was extremely helpful in helping with the logistics of of my extended stay as well as my eventual return home. I will definitely come back to Nepal one day to do more trekking and I won’t hesitate to book with Ace again.

  What an incredible adventure! We had an amazing trip with Ace the Himalaya and could not recommend them enough. From the minute we booked we were impressed with the communication... read more from Lokesh and the team who speedily answered all of our questions and provided us with a comprehensive pre-trek packing list.

When we arrived in Kathmandu, our trek manager Sajiya gave us a comprehensive outline of the itinerary and what to expect which prepared us for all eventualities.

We struck gold with Madan as our tour guide. Over the course of the two weeks he went from guide to friend to family. Madan having done over 200 treks had so much knowledge of not only the Himalayas but also medical knowledge on how to minimise the chances of altitude sickness, which none of us got. Because of him, we were able to achieve 100% success rate with all members of our group not only making base camp, but also making the difficult yet rewarding trek up Kala Patthar.

Madan kept us laughing, even when we were altitude trekking in -17 degrees! He kept us humble with the number of times he beat us at UNO, and always reminded us to stop and admire the view. He was constantly checking for altitude sickness so we felt safe and well cared for. He even brought up a pulse oximeter to check our oxygen levels. His passion about preserving the beauty of the Himalayas and caring for its people was infectious, and he helped us recognise the importance of sustainable trekking.

Our wonderful Porters Raj and Dhan made the trek much easier for us and were always there if we needed help. We couldn't have done it without them. Dhan especially was like a second guide and joined us for acclimatisation treks and the trek to base camp.

Overall this was the a trek of the lifetime. Going with Ace the Himalaya made it the perfect trip.

  Everyone in this company is super professional and helpful. We had Deepak Neupane as our guide and he was great. We probably wouldn't reached the base camp if it weren't... read more for him. He was very patient with me especially, since I had experienced some difficulties during the trek. At one point, he even carried my backpack for me. Overall, I could see why this company had won so many awards. They helped make our trip easy breezy. Definitely will choose them again and again in the future.
