More Information On The Trek
The Poon Hill Sunrise ExperienceWhy does Poon Hill attract hundreds of trekkers daily during peak season?

We had a great experience on the Everest Base Camp trek with Nepal Visuals. Our guide Rupesh was very knowledgeable and patient with our many questions and many, many photo sessions during the trek. Resh, the CEO, was responsive and did a great job of taking care of our needs the entire time we were in Nepal. Wonderful experience overall, I would definitely book another trek with Nepal Visuals again.

“Nepal Visuals” planned the whole Everest Base Camp trek very well, they were always in control of different situations & the guide was very helpful, calm & explaining everything in detail. Resh was very prompt in answering all our questions before trek & took very good care of our family upon arrival in Kathmandu till we left. We recommend Nepal Visuals to all our friends & will definitely use them when we plan our Annapurna trek.

From Cañete, Chile to the Magic of Everest Base Camp with Nepal Visual The dream of reaching Everest Base Camp came true for Luis and Laura, as we departed from Cañete, Chile, on September 30, 2025. After the journey, we landed in Kathmandu on October 2, where the warmth of our guide, Prim, welcomed us. The next day, our epic trek began. Before writing these lines, I reviewed the logistics that Nepal Visual had proposed for the trip; I must confess that they far exceeded our expectations. Everything went perfectly, demonstrating a level of professionalism and attention to detail that allowed us to focus solely on the beauty of the mountain and the experience. They took care of everything. Jepe (as Prim called the boss, warm and friendly), Prim, our guide in Spanish, did everything to make us feel good. He didn't have faith in us when he saw us, but later recognized how strong we were. Ram, our porter, a strong man with his smile and humility, and Rajat, who showed us the well-documented history of his capital, KMD. At the Capital Boutique Hotel, the receptionists, Anupama and Devendra, surprised us one morning by greeting us in Spanish. Our sincere congratulations and admiration to everyone for their work, "A Whole Team." Nepal Visual's service makes this magical: safe trekking, hotels, sufficient food, assistance with souvenir shopping, soaking up the culture, its spirituality, and connectivity. We recommend Nepal Visual to anyone looking for an unforgettable, magical, and, above all, hassle-free experience at Base Camp. They are a true team who put their heart and soul into their service and speak Spanish to the best of their ability. Nepal is also very safe. Thank you, Nepal Visual, you truly are a team. A total thank you!!! Signed: Laura and Luis. (From Cañete, Biobío Region, Chile)
