Review of Gokyo Valley Trek with Renjo La Pass

Excellent tour operator, all planned in detail, very fast reaction times when peparing, can accommodate all special needs. Perfect pick-up from the airport, nice hotel in the Thamel area next to the operator's office, we got all supplies easily (take some crampons even though you may not need them). We took the direct flight from Kathmandu to Lukla and back, which was great, due to weather conditions there can always be some waiting times. our guide Krishna did a perfect job, always very attentive and flexible. All thumbs up recommendation!

It was a great experience with Nepal Mountain Trekkers and our guide Krishna. I would definitly recommend doing the gokyo trek. Incredible views. I would bring crampons if I were you.

3 weeks we were traveling - and it was a wonderful experience!
Our destination was the Rolwaling trek over the difficult Tashi Lhapsa pass with the option of climbing the 6000 Parchamo.
When choosing the trekking agency, it was important for us to travel without German or Austrian “intermediaries”, but to book directly on site. And so we came across the website of Nepal Mountain Trekkers and had a very sympathetic contact with Ramesh, the boss, right from the first email inquiry. All our questions and requests for changes were warmly and patiently received and implemented.
The trip itself was perfectly organized from the airport pickup, via the central but very quiet Green Horizon Hotel, to the return flight from Lukla. Due to the many tent camps and the alpine challenges (ropes etc.) we had 5 porters, a cook (Sonam) and a guide (Ngatar).
The tour itself was indescribably beautiful, the porters incredible and Sonam and Ngatar always on hand when the porters had to be secured when crossing the pass.
Unfortunately we had to skip the summit due to complete icing (blue ice), but there was no deficit at all.
Since we were relatively fast, we had 5 days left, which we use as a couple to walk to Gokyo Ri and watch Everest & Co in the best weather. And here we were grateful for the incredible flexibility of Ramesh and his team: We said goodbye to the porters, Sonam and Ngatar, on an emotional dhal-bat evening and headed to Gokyo. We got the money we had saved in lodge and other costs from the brisk Rolwaling crossing and had wonderful two days before flying back from Lukla to Kathmandu.

We can only warmly and heartily recommend Nepal Mountain Trekkers for your next Nepal trip. This organization is actually different from the others: You feel the warmth and desire to make everything possible. The value for money is incredible and there is a company philosophy that is measured by customer satisfaction and never by pecuniary criteria.
Thanks again to Ramesh and his team for this absolutely unforgettable experience!

I did the Gokyo Ri trek and it was amazing!! They took care of every detail since I arrived at the airport. Krishna was the best guide, always asking how I was doing, making sure I was comfortable in every tea house we stayed in and during the trek. If I come back for another trek in Nepal I will choose Nepal Mountain Trekkers again, for sure!

Great trek.
Many people, mules, and dzopke the first two days to go to Namche Bazaar as lot of people are going to Everest base camp, but after that we see very few trekkers.
The day from Namche Bazaar to Dole is hard, while the rest is easier, with not much elevation gain after Dole .
Gokyo Rii is fantastic , great views all around of Everest, Lhotse, Cho oyu,...
Cold in late afternoon and early in the morning as rooms in guest houses are not heated and dining rooms are not heated at that time. (especially in Dole)
Always sunny skies in the morning with great view and visibility of the summits around.
Lodges were generally good , however i would not recommend staying in Tok Tok, it is more quiet but lodge service was not good . Better to stay in Phadking with more choices of lodges.
Thanks to our guides Ganga and Aypure and to our porters for your dedication and flexibility in making our trek so enjoyable.

Unforgettable people from Nepal Mountain Trekkers. They will take care of you as the closest friend. Ramesh has provided us with a great guide and Sherpas. Huge respect for Ramesh for professional organization. They will make the impossible possible.

It was another trek in the Himalayas with Nepal Mountain Trekkers. Another great experience. Everything is well prepared, since the arrival to Kathmandu, through flight to Lukla, during trekking. We only have to enjoy the views. If I go to Nepal again, I'm sure it will be trek with Nepal Moutain Trekkers.

Our first hike in Nepal and it was incredible!

Ramesh organised our itinerary for my husband and I based on the amount of time that we had. This included a personal airport pickup, our return flights to and from Lukla, a guide and porter for us, and also our accomodation in Kathmandu before and after our trek.

We set out planning to get to Tengboche, as our time was limited, but we were able to take it day by day depending on how we were fairing. As we hiked, we thought, this isn't as hard as we thought it would be - let's go further! Our amazing guide named Tika was obliging and set a new route for us mid-hike and we made it all the way to Ama Dablam base camp. Tika was always only a few steps ahead and was happy to tell us the names of all the mountains we could see along the way, the names of trees and plants, and the names of the villages across distant valleys. When we reached our destination each night he was always busy organising our meals, cups of tea, making sure our drink bottles were filled and that we were happy and healthy. He's a very polite, caring and experienced guide (with great english skills) who we'd definitely request for our next Himalayan experience and would certainly recommend to anyone else too.

We cannot express how satisfied and impressed we were with this company; a well run, honest business that really care for the customer's experience and safety. Nepal Mountain Trekkers allowed us to choose our own start and end date and plan the trek each day with no fixed or locked in agenda. This type of flexibility is something that you do not get in large group tours. It was our own private tour without the private tour price.

I had the joy of getting sick the day before we left Nepal and Ramesh organised for my care at a local hospital - complete with sorting our insurance and transfers to and from the hospital. He went above and beyond his duty as hotel manager and trekking company operator - he made a difficult time easier. Both Ramesh and our guide Tika came to the hospital to visit and make sure my health was on the mend.

There are many companies in Kathmandu that can take you on a breathtaking hike; but this one truely has the heart and passion for this exceptional place on Earth. 

We are already planning our next trip to Gokyo Ri with Nepal Mountain Trekkers - We couldn't recommend higher! Nepal Mountain Trekkers 100%

10 daagse trekking gemaakt regio Gokyo. Prachtig gebied. Onze gids TB was erg vriendelijk en actief om alles zo goed mogelijk voor ons te regelen. Ik zou dit bedrijf zeker aanbevelen. Het mailcontact voorafgaand aan onze reis was ook altijd vlot en duidelijk.
