    Amazing Everest Three Passes with Green Valley

    We did a 16-day trek of the Everest 3 passes including Everest Base Camp/Gokyo with Green Valley Nepal Treks and thoroughly recommend them to book your trek through. Arjun and his team were fantastic with their service from email communications to sending out a happy smiling driver to pick us up at Kathmandu airport.

    We went with Green Valley as we were astounded at the $$ difference between booking with offshore companies and going local. We decided to go with a local Nepalese company and we're glad we did despite any anxieties some have over sending a deposit prior to your trek. It was considerably cheaper but also your money is going directly into the local economy.

    We came across large groups through the offshore trekking companies - one having a staggering 31 tourists in it - and decided that we were on to a winner when it ended up being just myself, my husband, and our awesome guide Jommy(Jami) plus porter Korrigan.

    Green Valley delivered on everything promised, we had airport transfers, a day's touring around Kathmandu, the trek itself including airport transfers, flights, meals, accommodation, and a great meal with Arjun at the end to discuss our trek and what we did and didn't like.

    We were overawed by the scenery and we've done a lot of back-country trekking in New Zealand. The 3 passes are hard but hugely rewarding if you want to get off the beaten track in some parts - go with a guide and porter - it makes it so much easier and gives you time for photographs and to absorb the sights. Jommy ensured we were acclimatizing properly and would make sure he constantly monitored our health as we got higher. We always felt like we were in safe hands.

    He was constantly smiling and full of knowledge of all the flora and fauna in the region and always had our best interests at heart when it came to teahouses, meals, and ensuring we got good rooms.

    I cannot say enough good things about Jommy - even though we were feeling low, he was a constant source of inspiration, and his infectious laugh and general attitude kept us going. The world needs more people like Jommy.

    Both Jommy and Arjun recommended we not eat meat while we were trekking and amazingly neither of us go sick. Sticking to the rest/acclimatization days we did not suffer any effects of altitude.

    We stayed at one of the company's hotels, Hotel Florid. It is right in the heart of Thamel, clean and the shower is a welcome return after your trek. It also has a lovely lush garden oasis where you have meals.

    Thanks, Arjun and your fantastic team for a great trek, we will be singing your praises to anyone heading to Nepal!

    Three High Passes Trek!

    Green Valley organized an awesome trip for me to do the Three High Passes in the Everest region. Unfortunately, I had to come down early due to altitude sickness, but Green Valley was with me every step of the way. Raj met me at the hospital and helped smooth over things so that I could get discharged as soon as possible. I had no intention of spending the night in the hospital while on holiday. He even picked up my medical records for me later in the week since I had moved on to Pokhara. Highly recommended Green Valley!
