Highly Recommend Gokyo Lake and HST

I and other family/friends have trekked with Hari many times over the last 15 years. He and the team are fantastic- low key, organized and everything runs like clockwork. Feel lucky to have seen so much of Nepal with the HST team. Cannot recommend highly enough!

For our EBC journey in 2018, Hari Bahadur Gurung is an extremely knowledgeable and skilled tour guide. He has all the knowledge necessary to lead you and gives you all the information you need to climb or trek the EBC (such as information on altitude sickness, medications, meals, emergency evacuation via helicopter, and other topics). We finished the EBC journey in 11 days with a group of 11 persons, including two children who were 9 and 11 years old. He is also an approachable and reliable person. Will hire him and his staff as our tour guides for our upcoming trip to Nepal. Happy New Year!

Everest base camp trek. An incredible life-changing experience. I was with a small group which I found enhanced the experience and make it more personal. My guide and my porter were some of the nicest people I have ever met, after the trek, we shared a meal at both their places which were magical and I am still in touch with my guide Hari. Coolest guy! Planning my next trek soon for sure.

I’ve just completed a trip to Gokyo Lakes with Hillary Step Treks, and am happily reflecting on what an amazing experience it was. From the start, Hari guided us with itineraries, packing lists, and other ways to make the hike a success. We chose to visit in the off-season; December brings colder weather, but crisp blue sky days and uncrowded trails made it worthwhile! The Gokyo Lakes trek is magnificent- once you reach Gokyo, you have two days of panoramic views of Everest and surrounding peaks. The scenery throughout the walk is breathtaking, as you ascend and descend through valleys buttressed by imposing mountains. Our porter, Bikas, was instrumental in helping transport our gear, and keeping us amply hydrated. Hari kept us on track with his local wisdom and a great sense of humor, which are both necessities in the Himalayas. I can highly recommend both Hari and Hillary Step Treks to organize your trip of a lifetime to Nepal!
