We were a group of 9 people who completed a 7-day trek to Everest Base Camp, followed by a scenic helicopter return to Lukla on Day 8. This unforgettable trip was organized by High Pass Adventure, and it was truly an once-in-a-lifetime experience. Everything was perfectly arranged, and the team—Ganesh, Sundar, and Gyan—provided excellent support throughout the trek. Their deep knowledge of the trail and ability to adapt to the group’s pace made the journey enjoyable for everyone. The trek was exhilarating, with breathtaking views at every turn. Memorable places like Namche Bazaar, Dingboche, Lobuche, and Everest Base Camp left a lasting impression—made even better by the perfect weather during our trip from June 7 to 14, 2025. The helicopter ride back to Lukla offered a stunning aerial perspective of the Khumbu region like nothing else. Our return flight to Kathmandu was also smooth, giving me time to reflect on the incredible journey. Big thanks to High Pass Adventure and the entire team for their flawless coordination. Their professionalism and passion made this adventure one I’ll remember for a lifetime. Highly recommended to all!

Best Annapurna Trek - Ghorepani Poon Hill with Mardi Himal Trek
I have done the ABC, EBC, and Annapurna Circuit Trek multiple times with Purna. He took me on different routes, including the Ghorepani Poon Hill with Mardi Himal Trek, which was truly wonderful—I did it twice! Purna, the owner of High Pass Adventure, created the perfect itinerary for me, tailored to my needs. He guided me throughout the trek, making sure we were well, enjoying ourselves, and learning about the countryside and local culture. The food was absolutely delicious at every teahouse we stayed in, and the accommodations were very satisfying. We reached our destinations, and despite the weather, Purna timed everything perfectly so we could capture some of the most breathtaking views at Mardi Himal Base Camp and Poon Hill. I cannot recommend Purna and his company highly enough. Thank you for a life-changing adventure!
I completed a 15-day trek from Lukla to Amphu Laptsa Pass via Mera La, ending back in Lukla. I found the Amphu Laptsa Pass to be one of the most challenging passes in the Himalayan region of Nepal—but it was an absolutely amazing experience. There were two of us in the group, accompanied by one guide and four porters throughout the trek. We stayed in teahouses for most of the nights and camped in tents for three nights during the trip. The weather was extremely cold, with daily temperatures dropping below zero degrees Celsius from above Khare Camp all the way to Chhukung. There was no electricity available in the remote areas, so I used a solar charger to power my watch, mobile and camera. Thank you to the High Pass Adventure team for making this a memorable journey. Special thanks to our main guide, Rohit, and to Purna, the owner and organizer of the trip. Highly recommended to others!
I have just completed a 15-day tour and trek in the Upper Mustang Valley with Ganesh, the founder of High Pass Adventure. The service provided by Ganesh was truly first class — he is the best tour and trekking guide I have ever had, and I’ve traveled extensively over the past ten years. Ganesh is one of the most caring individuals you could hope to meet, especially when you're far from your comfort zone. The Upper Mustang is a very remote region, and as a first-time trekker, I felt completely safe under his guidance. The scenery was breathtaking, the mountains were steep, and the nights were cold — but Ganesh was always there with a warm smile at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Thank you, Ganesh, for an unforgettable life experience. I will definitely reach out to you again and wholeheartedly recommend you to my friends the next time I visit Nepal.
High Pass Adventure is a reliable and professional agency you can count on for trekking in Nepal and all tourism-related services, including events like the Everest Marathon. Ganesh is a man of his word—confident, flexible, and attentive to your expectations and needs. He knows the region well and takes care of everything, from your arrival in Kathmandu to your departure. We participated in the Everest Marathon, and Ganesh organized everything perfectly. He handled the collection of race bibs and kits and planned the entire itinerary around this event. Highly recommended to all!

Incredible Memories from the Annapurna Base Camp Trek
We did the ABC Trek with Guide Purna, the founder of High Pass Adventure, and he delivered on every promise from start to finish. He pleasantly surprised us by being the only one to offer a quote for hiring just a guide, which was exactly what we initially wanted. He was sincere, attentive, and scrupulous, looking after us every step of the way while also allowing us to enjoy moments of solitude—as if we were trekking alone through the beautiful Nepali valleys. We also shared many enjoyable and friendly moments together; at times, it felt like we were traveling with a close friend. I highly recommend him!

Langtang Valley Trek: A Remarkable and Rewarding Adventure
High Pass Adventure offers great flexibility in tailoring your Himalayan trekking experience in Nepal. The team behind this company is very open and accommodating, arranging the best options based on individual needs. This was perfect for us, as we normally travel as a duo and don’t usually hire guides. We had the pleasure of sharing the Langtang Valley Trek with one of the company’s founders, who guided us all the way from Kathmandu to the summit of Kyangjin Ri, nearly 5,000 meters high. Early April turned out to be an excellent time for the trek—less crowded and with beautiful weather. Ganesh, our guide, was a wonderful companion. More than just a guide, he shared stories and experiences with us, making the journey feel much more personal. He was always watchful and supportive while giving us the freedom to enjoy quiet moments on our own—striking the perfect balance between guidance and space. I highly recommend High Pass Adventure for the outstanding experience I had with their team. Their logistics and organization were flawless. Thank you!
I did the Langtang Valley Trek with my friends, and it was a great experience with our guide, Ganesh. The company pleasantly surprised us because it was the only one that offered us a quote for hiring just a guide, as we initially only wanted that. All the other agencies we contacted tried to sell us a full package. In the end, we decided to go with the full package anyway—and it turned out to be the cheapest yet most complete option. This may have been due to the choice of more basic accommodations, but it brought us much closer to the authentic Nepali way of life. The company paid excellent attention to our trip and showed great flexibility with our changing plans. We were always given the freedom to choose the route, destinations, and stops. Ganesh, our guide, was always supportive but also knew when to give us space, allowing us to enjoy moments of solitude as if we were trekking alone in the beautiful Nepali valleys. He had an incredible sense for understanding the different moods of our journey. We also shared some enjoyable, friendly moments together—at times it felt like we were traveling with a close friend. Highly recommended!
We, a family of four along with some friends, chose High Pass Adventure for our Kailash Mansarovar Trip. We began discussions with Mr. Purna Karki at the start of the year, and he was always prompt and helpful, answering all our queries very quickly. The accommodation provided in Kathmandu was comfortable, and the transportation to Rasuwagadhi and back was perfect—even though the road conditions were poor. Once we crossed into Tibet after Rasuwagadhi, the team led by Mr. Ganesh, cook Ramesh, and Chinese guide Tashi took complete care of us, providing delicious food and personalized attention at every step of the journey. Without the guidance and support of this hardworking team, it would have been difficult for us to complete the challenging 3-day parikrama and the entire journey. Overall, it was a very well-organized trip by High Pass Adventure. Highly recommended to all!
We had an absolutely fantastic trek to Kanchenjunga and can’t recommend High Pass Adventure enough—especially our incredible guide, Bibek, and porter, Ganga! From the very beginning, Purna was warm, friendly, and extremely helpful in organizing everything. His communication and support made the planning process incredibly smooth. Once on the trail, our guide Bibek went above and beyond. He was not only knowledgeable and experienced but also genuinely fun to be around—always ready with a helping hand and a friendly chat.

Twice in the Himalayan Mountains with High Pass Adventure
We have twice contracted the services of High Pass Adventure. There was amazing trekking moments in 2023 for Everest Base Camp via Gokyo (with guide Ganesh and porter Shiva) and in 2024 for Everest Three High Passes (with guide Gyan and porter Shiva, our mountain hero). The teams at the High Pass Adventure, in Kathmandu with Ganesh and Purna and during the trekking were very attentive, careful and respectful with us from beginning to end, presenting us with familiar environments with good accommodation and meal options, as well as program optimizations in case of need. Excellent service that I highly recommend! We would hire again at another opportunity.
I just completed the Pikey Peak Trek-5 days, and it was awesome! My guide, Purna, was incredibly kind and caring throughout the journey. He offered great flexibility in tailoring the itinerary to suit my experience and comfort level on the Himalayan trails. What stood out most was his ability to truly understand the different moments of my experience—whether I needed support, space, or encouragement. I also enjoyed genuine moments of conviviality, as if I were traveling with a friend. Highly recommended!
