Perfect organization of the climb, they took care of us so well…thank you Namas, we hope to come back one day.
Nepal is a wonderful country to visit, highly recommend & you have found the right company to go with.

Himlung Himal 7126M Expedition (2022)

Namas Himlung Himal Exped October 2022. Wow, what a trip. Really enjoyed it.
Bisesh always answered the never-ending pre-trip queries speedily and adequately. Suggestions were taken on board seriously and creatively. Lakpa's help in Kathmandu with equipment, hotel and transport was excellent.
The rental equipment was first class. I loved the Kailas sleeping bag, very warm and comfy. All equipment on the trip was good quality with a good size private tent for each at basecamp.
The smooth-running engine of the expedition was the 5-man sherpa team, headed by Kami Temba Sherpa. His English is excellent, he is a good communicator and organiser, insightful, and creative when bad weather seemed to put a spanner in the wheels at the start of the expedition.
We had 1:1 sherpa support and they were all great, with a smile on their faces, a good sense of humor, and unfailingly helpful! Without hesitation, I can highly recommend Namas.

From the first email until the end of the expedition, Namas Adventure team was extremely helpful, flexible and easygoing. Every single question got answered before the trip (and there were many!) and replies were prompt. The Sherpa team was very professional and friendly and although they worked hard they did it with a smile on their face.
Rental gear was high quality, I was particularly happy with the sleeping bag. Very warm and comfy!
Everything was organized well and although we faced some delays and changes of plans due to bad weather, I felt like everything was under control and there was always at least plan b and c ready.
I highly recommend Namas Adventure!

I climbed Lobuche East and Island Peak with Namas Adventure.
My questions before the trip were always answered very quickly. Our guides were very experienced and very kind, they made this trip an unforgettable experience.
I can recommend Namas to anyone who wants to have a good time in Nepal.

The first Baruntse expedition in years to reach the top via the normal route.
It was a privilege to be part of this well-organized expedition. Base camp was very comfortable. Nice group of experienced, driven, and skilled Sherpa’s with countless 8000-meter climbs to their name. The attitude of founder Bishesh (for this occasion participant and expedition coordinator) was very casual, flexible, and pleasant. Would definitely recommend Namas.

"Namas organised a brilliant two weeks for me in Nepal. I'm very grateful to Bisesh for speedily answering my never-ending questions before leaving, and also to Lakpa and Pega for facilitating and ensuring a seamless experience during the trip. The local guide's expert level of knowledge and friendly nature made for a thoroughly enjoyable summit of Mera Peak. I will certainly re-book with Namas the next time I head to back to the Himalayas. Huge thanks to everyone involved!"
“The jacket is great! It was certainly a comfort early in the mornings in those chilly Tea Houses! I will definitely be using it in London too. It's cool that it's a new brand and made in Nepal.”
“ I've certainly got the bug for high-altitude mountaineering and will be back.”
“Thanks again. Honestly, I can't fault Namas at all; it's been fantastic!”

Baruntse and Mera Peak Expedition (2021)
Our expedition to Mera and Baruntse was an amazing experience in every way, even when things didn’t go to plan. The itinerary was complex, taking us off the beaten path into some really remote country and attempting two different mountains. The Namas team organized it all flawlessly. They consistently hit the sweet spot between luxe and local, providing high-quality logistics while keeping things very Nepalese. And true to their ethical commitment, it was clear that they dealt fairly with the locals, who all seemed happy to be working with us.
On the trail Bisesh was a fine cultural guide and an easy traveling companion. Lead guide Noor was endlessly thoughtful and kind, as well as a super-solid technical leader with full IFMGA certification. Our basecamp cook was a master, and even our young porters we hope to see working up to guiding roles soon.
But while we were at altitude the pandemic was catching up to Nepal. Kathmandu was in lockdown, all international flights canceled. When an infection scare affected another team we had to break camp and change plans. The team proved very flexible and open in handling the uncertainty and delays that followed, as we waited it out in the mountains, then made a run for Kathmandu. Bisesh was critical in getting me out of the country, from working personal connections to secure seats on a charter flight, to lining up covid tests and the necessary paperwork.
Throughout these ups and downs Bisesh and the team were supportive, communicative, collaborative, and calm, as well as good company. I’d recommend them without hesitation, and personally I’m looking forward to returning soon for further adventures.

“ The website was user friendly which made the whole booking process easy to follow and was quick. An experienced member of staff from the company also met me in person prior to my trip to answer all my questions. I was well received and looked after during my stay in Kathmandu. The Sherpa guide was very experienced, friendly and caring. I felt very comfortable, reassured and enjoyable during my trek.
Overall I had one of the best trekking holidays in Nepal with Namas. This was my first time with Namas but won't be the last. Highly recommend! ”

“Thank you Namas Adventure and Uncle Lopsang for an amazing lifetime experience trekking to Everest Base Camp! Bisesh Dai was a very patient leader and our tour guide, Uncle Lopsang was very approachable and knowledgeable, They both took great care of the group and encouraging on tough days.
Lots of updates were provided in the lead up to the trip and my sister and I were taken care of from when we arrived in Kathmandu until we flew back to London.
Getting to Everest Base Camp was not easy but definitely worth it and I made new lifelong friends along the way. I would definitely recommend going with Namas Adventure to reach Everest Base Camp! ”

“ We trekked to EBC in April 2019. The Namas team was incredibly organised. There were some changes to the flights to Lukla but they made sure we were informed of our choices and made travel changes accordingly to fit everyone's schedule.
This trek was hard for me personally. We had two guides, Uncle Lopsang and Bisesh Dai.
They were both very patient and understanding. As the trek became more difficult, they kept assessing my ability to continue and encouraged me to keep going. I made it to EBC at the end but only because they looked after me very well.
The itinerary changed a little bit in order for us to get more rest on some days. That was very thoughtful and I really appreciate the extra time in Namche.
Both guides were entertaining, full of facts and very helpful during the trek and made sure everyone was looked after well. I am very glad we chose Namas Adventure because they helped me achieve something that I thought was impossible.
Bisesh Dai spoke a little about the Company's plans to increase pay for the porters who did a lot of the hard work. I am glad Namas Adventure is a social conscious company and look for ways to be fair to those involved in the experience.
I highly recommend Namas adventure to everyone and I look forward to more trips with them! ”

“ I trekked to Everest Base Camp with Namas Adventure. From the onset, all the planning and organising was completely handled by the team. Any changes to plan due to unforeseen circumstances were communicated promptly and alternative plan advised on a timely manner. Both Bisesh Dai and Uncle Lopsang were not just guides to show us the way, but were there every step of the trek providing us all much needed encouragement and confidence to ensure everyone had the best chance to make it to EBC successfully. Thanks for your support and helping me accomplish this challenge!! ”

“ Tashi delek!! The Everest Base Camp trek was an amazing experience that I was able to complete thanks to Namas Adventure! I got to experience the culture of the Himalayas with close friends and new found friends, and everyday was a different challenge that I was able to tackle with the help of our guide Lopsang Sherpa Uncle and support Bisesh Gurung dai. I would definitely recommend this adventure to anyone new to trekking and who wishes to challenge themselves to learn and develop personally whilst seeing the beauty of nature. The process was very easy and the Namas team are very approachable, especially when you want to ask tonnes and tonnes of questions! ”

“ I had an amazing experience with Namasadventures. They took care of us since we landed in Nepal, ensured we were comfortable and enjoyed experiencing the route to Everest Base Camp to the fullest. Lakpa dai was a star, going that extra mile and also our guide, Dhiraj Dai for putting up with our shenanigans throughout our trip. I was very sad to leave Nepal and I dearly miss our Namas mountain family. ”

“ Everest Base Camp trip was the best experience ever! I will never forget this trip and I would highly recommend to all my friends to book their ticket asap.
I really enjoyed the cultural dinner on our first night in KTM, even being Nepali it was really interesting to see the different cultural dances from across the country and the food was amazing. It was a really good start to get to know the guide, the Namas contact in KTM and the rest of the team members.
Throughout the trip, we were looked after really well by Dhiraj dai and is team, it felt like we were all friends going on the same trip rather than a guide looking after us and it was really nice to relax when we all went out as a group on our Namche Bazaar return. Dhiraj dai was really professional, looked after every team member well, knew all the answers to our questions no matter how silly they were.
Overall it was a really good experience and would like to thank Namas Adventure for a trip I will never forget! ”
