The Everest Base Camp Trek with Taiwan Trek Nepal was the most challenging yet rewarding thing I’ve ever done! The team organized everything perfectly—from our Lukla flight to the daily tea house accommodations. Our guide, Rajan, was a true professional—he kept our group motivated, informed, and safe throughout the journey. The views of Everest, Ama Dablam, and surrounding peaks were surreal. Reaching Base Camp was emotional and exhilarating. I can’t thank Taiwan Trek Nepal enough for this once-in-a-lifetime experience. Highly recommended to anyone dreaming of standing beneath Everest!
