Traveller's Review
Desde Cañete, Chile a la Magia del Everest Base Camp con “Nepal Visual” El sueño de alcanzar el Campamento Base del Everest se hizo realidad para Luis y yo, Laura, al partir de Cañete, Chile el 30 de septiembre de 2025. Tras el viaje, aterrizamos en Katmandú el día 2 de octubre, donde la calidez de nuestro guía, Prim, nos dio la bienvenida. Al día siguiente, comenzó nuestra épica caminata. Antes de escribir estas líneas, estuve revisando la logística que Nepal Visual proponía para el viaje, debo confesar que fue superada con creces. Todo salió perfecto, demostrando un nivel de profesionalismo y atención al detalle que nos permitió concentrarnos únicamente en la belleza de la montaña y la experiencia, ellos se preocuparon de todo. El Jepe (como le decía Prim al jefe, cálido, cercano, hizo todo para que nos sintiéramos bien), Prim nuestro Guía en español que no nos tenía fe cuando nos vio, después reconoció lo fuerte que éramos. Ram nuestro Porteador un hombre fuerte, con su sonrisa y humildad y Rajat que nos mostró la historia de su capital KMD, muy documentado. En el hotel “Capital Boutique Hotel” los recepcionistas Anupama y Devendra, nos sorprendieron una mañana saludándonos en español. Nuestras sinceras felicitaciones y admiración a todos por su trabajo, “Todo un Equipo”. El servicio de Nepal Visual hace que esto sea mágico; caminata segura, hoteles, comida suficiente, acompañamiento en las compras de souvenir, a impregnarse de la cultura, de su espiritualidad y de la conectividad. Recomendamos a Nepal Visual a todas las personas que estén buscando una experiencia inolvidable, mágica y, sobre todo, sin contratiempos al CAMPO BASE. Son un verdadero equipo que entrega su corazón en el servicio y lo mejor en español. Además Nepal es muy seguro. Gracias Nepal Visual, son realmente un equipo. ¡¡¡Gracias Totales!!! Firmado: Laura y Luis. (Desde Cañete, Región del Biobio-Chile)
Everest Base Camp Trek with Nepal Visuals (Oct 7–19) We booked our Everest Base Camp Trek with Nepal Visuals from October 7th to 19th, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish! Communication from Resh was very prompt and professional throughout the planning and during the trek. We were warmly welcomed at the airport by CEO Resh himself, which was a very nice personal touch. Our guide, Rupesh, was knowledgeable, caring, and always made sure we were comfortable and safe. Our porters, Tara and Ratna, were incredibly hardworking and kind — they not only carried our duffel bags to the next destination ahead of time but even returned to help us with our daypacks. Truly amazing teamwork! All our lodges were comfortable, and the food (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) was well arranged and as described. The overall logistics were smooth, and we felt well taken care of throughout. At the end of the trek, Nepal Visuals organized a farewell dinner at an authentic Nepalese restaurant, which was the perfect way to conclude an unforgettable journey — the icing on the cake! I would highly recommend Nepal Visuals to anyone planning their next trekking adventure in Nepal. They go above and beyond to make the experience memorable.
“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.

“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 & guiding us before the trek and took good care of us right from the day we landed in Kathmandu till we left for back home. We recommend Nepal Visuals to all our friends & will definitely use them when we plan our Annapurna trek.
Incredible experience
I recently went on an incredible trek to Nepal with Nepal Visuals, and the experience was outstanding. The team took care of every detail, making the trip smooth and stress-free. A highlight was the unforgettable birthday celebration they organized for my husband at Everest Base Camp—such a thoughtful and magical touch! Our guide Prakash and helper Kiran were amazing, ensuring we felt safe, supported, and enriched by the local culture throughout the journey. I highly recommend Nepal Visuals for anyone seeking a personalized and unforgettable adventure in Nepal.
EBC Trek, November 2024
In November 2024, I had the opportunity to make use of Nepal Visuals to plan a trek to Everest Base Camp. Communication was great with the planning, accommodation, itinerary and trek information before I left. When I arrived I was met by the team in Kathmandu and they really did a great job in looking after me, including a welcome dinner and briefing session. They had everything arranged, including the flights to Lukla and back, as well as a really experienced, English speaking guide and a friendly capable porter. The trek went without a hitch, teahouse accommodation and 3 meals a day were provided. There seem to be hundreds of trekking and expedition companies in Nepal, however, I would be careful to do your research and make sure you choose a experienced company like Nepal Visuals. I will definitely be back to do another trek soon and would have no hesitation to make use of them again. Thank you Nepal Visuals for the fun, memorable experience.
