My First Trek In Nepal
I and group of friends from malaysia recently finished the Everest Base Camp trek with Sali Trekking, and it was an absolutely incredible experience thanks to their outstanding service! The team went above and beyond—our guide Ishwor and porter Ramesh were amazing, and everything was perfectly planned and executed. The whole journey felt seamless and enjoyable, with every need thoughtfully met. At Gorakshep I was nearly giving up but my guide motivate me and ask to move slowly, as I was so tired. Yey, Finally I made it. If you’re considering a trek, Sali Trekking is the way to go—I’d recommend them to anyone without hesitation!
