Mt. Everest Expedition - North Col (Tibet)

I was in Everest expedition with Makalu adventure who provided the BC services perfectly, great food and assistance and a very fast and professional team to organize and find our unique needs.

I've known and worked with Mohan and Makalu Adventure for nearly 15 years. In that time I've led many treks and high altitude expeditions to Nepal (15 expeditions over 8000m and counting). His company provides an excellent service and a welcome that I look forward to every season. The Thamel Eco Resort is a center of tranquility in Kathmandu and the perfect place to start and finish the Himalayan Adventure. The staffs are now like family and I hope to return for many years with the guarantee of safety and security that he offers in the mountains.

“I have used Makalu Adventure as my in-county agent for the last twenty years and recommend them most highly. The staff are knowledgeable, well trained and go that extra mile to make sure all is well. These are just some of the trips I have done with Makalu Adventure: Jiri to Everest Base Camp Trek - Phapulu to Everest Base Camp - Annapurna Base Camp - Annapurna Circuit with Tilicho Lake Trek Annapurna - Circuit of Dhaulagiri - Circuit of Manaslu - Rolwaling to Everest - Humla to Mt. Kailash - Everest ABC Tibet - Makalu Base Camp - Makalu Sherpani Col Pass Trek - Kangchenjunga Base Camp - Langtang Valley - Parchamo Peak - Dolpo - Mera Peak.

I worked with Makalu Adventure to get the trip all set up back in 2018 and it was great. The expedition was dealt with very well on my end and everyone on the team was really well experienced. I had good time getting to know the staff. The cook on my trip was fun and the climbing guide too. They really made the trip memorable. The company members were also pretty good, especially handling the logistics and providing what we needed.
I feel confident that you will have a good time working with them.

I was part of the Everest expedition from Tibet side in 2018 along with three others on the mission to the top of the world. It was a successful expedition and that is indeed because of Makalu and its experienced staff. I will not bore you with too many details but I will list out all points that I personally think you should know. 

From the moment you arrive till the day you leave, you can really tell that they care about their clients. The team, especially Mohan who is the director and Phurba Wanchhu Sherpa who was the climbing sherpa were clear with the goals and objectives from day one which made us all comfortable throughout the expedition. They provided all the gears necessary for the expedition (O2, tents, etc.) which were all well maintained. Their base camp service was amazing and the staff spoke English well too. Specially base camp and advance base camp food was excellent. Overall I recommend Makalu Adventure and the amazing services provided by Mohan and his team in Nepal. Having had a few expedition experience in my lifetime, I can confidently say this is one of the best companies and I have met.

There are a lot of companies to choose from but here are my two cents on that. Personally, I find it that local companies often have the same, if not better service compared to big-name companies. Moreover, foreign companies often use local companies to operate in countries like Nepal and charge a premium for their foreign leaders. Having has experience with both, I would prefer working with local companies as the level of service is the same and I save money too. 
Good luck with everything!

I successfully climbed Mt Everest from the Tibet Side back in 2016. The climbing was much adventurous and challenging than other peaks I submitted before. Well it was definitely dangerous and thrilling but what made it easier and worth it was Makalu Adventures. I'm so glad my friend recommended me Makalu Adventure. The whole trip was so well organized, the sherpas (Phurba Ongel and Wanchhu) guided us all the way to the summit making the journey smooth. I had a lot of fun and the accommodation along with the food was great even in the higher altitude which I did not foresee. It was an experience to remember for a lifetime. Thank you Makalu Adventures for a great adventure. Great services
