Review of Mountain Eco Treks & Expedition
Ram is a first class English and Arabic speaking tour guide based in Kathmandu
Ram is prepared for any eventuality and conducts his tours seamlessly throughout the Nepal region
Our group enjoyed a wonderful spectacle of seeing Everest base camp and surrounding countryside
An area not to be underestimated for its beauty and dangerous weather conditions
Ram makes sure his clients are always well fed and ready for the days adventures
Mountain eco tours will be the company I choose again if I return to this majestic area
Thanks Ram for a wonderful two week experience
Date of experience: October 2018

Would totally recommend Ram and our tour guide Bakktha to everyone. We did the three passes trek in the Everest region and it could not have been a better experience.
Organization was super smooth with Ram, and you could feel that he really tries to make this a grwat experience for you. For example, when stuck in Lukla due to weather conditions, Ram (and our guide Bakktha) really tried everything in their hands to get us back to Kathmandu fast and spent the whole day basically on the phone. Successful, in the end, and I believe we would have been stuck for another 2-3 days if it was not for them :)
Bakktha was a very kind and helpful guide that enriched our trek with grst organization and a lot of interesting information on the region. And he loves to play cards, which was great for us :)
All in all, I would always organize it again with Ram and Bakktha

I loved the three passes trek. Great 18 days with awesome views and nice walks. And ram with his organisation and our guide bakktha did everything to make this trip unforgettable.Planning our trip was easy because email and telephone communication with ram was perfect. He told no lies and talked honestly about the costs and challenges of the trip.
The lodges were as good as possible up there at the trek.
Even when we had problems with our flights to and from lukla because of bad weather or technically problems with the aircraft ram and bakktha did hundreds of phone calls to manage that we didn't lose so much time.I would totally recommend the organisation. They are very nice, honest and speak good english.
