The Adventure People Reviews 

Just returned from a trek to EBC with The Adventure People. Tika, Prabin, Himsange, Telcman and Ambir were superb and got me there and back with no drama. If this is on your bucket list, I would highly recommend The Adventure People, along with Iccicles Adventure Treks and Tours.

I did the Everest Base Camp trek at the start of October and it was absolutely incredible! Trip of a lifetime! The start of our trek was delayed 3 days due to bad weather and our Guide Raj Kumar Rai did everything he could to look after us and deal with the situation until we were able to travel to Ramechhape and Lukla. He planned out a new itinerary to make sure we could trek there and back within 9 days and his knowledge and experience of the mountains really showed! Raj, our assistant Guide Sudip Rai and porter Naba Raj Rai who were with us throughout the trek were absolutely amazing! They brought so much fun, humour, knowledge and energy to the trek and really took a genuine care to look after us and make sure we were all okay, it really was so special and I’m forever grateful for having them for the experience, it wouldn’t have been the same without them! Our porters Naba Raj Rai, Dinesh Rai, Bimal Rai, Nabin Rai and Phodindra Rai.. it’s fair to say we couldn’t have done it without them and they were always smiling! All the teahouses were great and where possible we had un-suite bathrooms, it’s a shame the porters don’t stay in the same ones and have to self fund their accommodation. Also, because we were delayed there wasn’t always room for the guides and they slept in their dining rooms, I felt awful for them - the least they deserve is a decent bed to rest up in, hopefully that was a rare situation! It’s the first trip I’ve done with the adventure people but I would defo recommend and look to do future trips with them - great service and employees!

It's been a month since we got back from our trek to Everest Base Camp with The Adventure People, and it was an experience of a lifetime!
The adventure people and Icicles adventure, the local tour company were brilliant from start to finish.
The Adventure People were quick to respond to any queries before the trip and very helpful on our return.
We found Icicles to be professional, efficient, friendly and always willing to help. Everything was wonderfully organised from the minute we landed in Kathmandu to the minute we left, we could not expect anything more.

The trek was breathtaking, but what made it so special was the people. Puja, our guide, was always on hand, friendly, calm, positive and reassuring all the way. Puja and her team were caring, organised and their energy was second to none. Their guidance made a challenging adventure feel safe, well-managed and deeply rewarding.

We’re so grateful for this incredible experience and highly recommend them to anyone thinking about taking on the Everest Base Camp trek or any other adventure.

I’ve booked many trips via the adventure people. Trustworthy, good prices and gives me a bit more piece of mind.

Overall an incredible experience, tour guides Grober, Warner and William very knowledgeable and approachable. Fantastic views and camps with great respect for the porters, cooks, waiters and guides throughout. However nearer the end of this experience awkward conversations regarding tipping whereby what the guides proposed was vastly different to what we had budgeted for (considering we had utilised the adventure people brochure to aid our tipping budget it was a shock how much more the guides proposed)

Great time in Croatia. Everything was straight forward and stress free.

I recently completed the Everest Base Camp trek, and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience. Raj, our guide, was amazing – not only incredibly knowledgeable and professional but also felt like a great friend throughout the journey. His support and sense of humour made the trek even more enjoyable.

The porters were so humble and a true pleasure to be around. Their hard work and kindness really made a difference every single day.

Booking with Adventure People has been fantastic. They’ve looked after us so well from start to finish, and I’ve genuinely felt valued as a customer. I couldn’t recommend them enough for anyone thinking about taking on this adventure – you’ll be in great hands!

Thanks

The trip to Everest Bse camp was excellent and we cannot praise your local firm Icicles Adventures highly enough! This was our 4th and last trek to EBC and we found Icicles to be professional. efficient, friendly and always willing to help. Whilst we won't be doing EBC again, we will be returning to Nepal at a future date and will certainly be using Icicles. We narrowly missed the bad weather which grounded all flights to lukla and were happy to enjoy a few days in Kathmandu while we read the horror stories of no accommodation available in Lukla or Namche and of people being stranded in tea houses or tents; it is always recommended to have a cushion of a few days at the end of the trip in case weather affects the scheduled flights! In all though, a superb trip.

I don't think this tour was value for money, I don't think it matched the advertising (I actually can't believe they sell the tour at this time of year), I think the movement through the locations/ events are in the wrong order. I think the accommodation and in particular food was poor for the money spent on the tour. The breakfast food was not adequate which was incredibly problematic for a tour that was intensely physical. A number of critical things were not included in the tour and therefor were additional costs when there was no alternative to completing the included activity without those inclusions. The local guide was very good and the people on the tour made it a great experience but I think there are some problems with the tour value, structure and facilities.

All involved went above and beyond the call of duty a finely tuned almost impossible operation ran unbelievably smooth with nothing but solutions a great team well done guides porters and chefs

I went to EBC in November 2025 and the guide Raj and the x2 porters went above and beyond.
Raj the guides local knowledge was spot on and added to the experience.
If you plan on booking EBC request Raj and his team.

Just at the end of our 14 day Gokyo Ri trip with The Adventure People. I honestly cannot find anything to criticise ( given that the weather is out of human control!). Our guide , Pooja, was always on hand, friendly, calm, positive and reassuringly always in communication with the rest of her team to update on safety of routes and planning the day ahead. She had a great relationship with so many people we came across on the trek and at Lukla airport which aided smooth transitions and a sense that she is really part of the mountain community. Our 2 guides, Ram and Deepen, were her perfect aids and transported out luggage efficiently and carefully and always ahead of us!! The support from the office in Kathmandu was faultless.

From start to finish The Adventure People were first class .5 star , from the ease off booking to there help booking flights , Always there to help , then the trip it self from Kathmandu to base camp , trip off a life time excellent staff from start to finish look after everything you need , Our lead guid Tika Dhakal was excellent his knowledge is unreal a legend off a man

Trekked with a fried to EBC starting 10/10. The Adventure People and Icicles were great from start to finish, helping us sort extra nights, flights, advice on kit etc. Raj our guide met us at the airport and was brilliant throughout, friendly, helpful, nothing was too much trouble and super knowledgeable about the area, history, people, culture etc. They were great when one of our group had to stay back due to illness, and helped the rest of us plan and get to EBC on the 19th October. I would book with them again and would definitely go back to the Himalayas to trek - especially if we could guarantee getting Rajindra as our guide again. Maybe I'll beat you at chess next time Raj! Dhanyabad!

Really well organised week-long walking trip. Terrific tour leader (thanks Filipe!) and a lovely group made for a great experience. Highly recommended!

8 day Vietnam Hanoi to Hoi An.
Unfortunately, heavy rain and flooding in Hue & Hoi An heavily impacted our holiday with On The Go Tours.
Most of the planned activities were cancelled and despite the unfolding disaster, they still chose to fly us into the affected town.
The main thinng they were concerned about, was recoupng the additional expense that they incurred due to change of plans. Very unscrupluous company.
Despite this we enjoyed Hanoi and Halong Bay Cruise.

I recently completed the EBC hike through The Adventure People agency reaching the EBC on 20oth Oct 2025, The Diwali Day!

This has been on my bucket list for years. This has been one of the most memorable, life-changing experiences of my life. The whole journey was fully supported, from picking up from the airport and the team brief meeting.

I was picked up by our guide, Sarala, from the airport and had had an immediate connection with her. She is just a bundle of positive energy, a happy soul who just loves mountains, very knowable, caring and informative with great sense of humour!
The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, but what truly made the journey unforgettable was the incredible team, our guide and our porters especially Chandra who accapnied us to Kapa Patthar Summit from 3:30 am and kept us safe.

From day one, our wonderful guide, Sarala genuinely cared about every person in our group and looked after every individual’s personal needs- whether health issue, attention to our food and drinks, time for photos / videos and also simple but important tasks of getting our phone charging devices sorted. Her encouragement, kindness, and expertise made all the difference – I felt safe, inspired, uplifted and motivated the entire way.

Sarala and the team – Indira and Parashu handled every detail perfectly, which allowed us to fully enjoy this incredible adventure without worry. They kept us motivated after every single achievement which was deeply rewarding.

I am so grateful for this incredible experience and highly recommend them to my friends, family and anyone thinking about completing EBC! This wasn’t just a trek; it really was a journey of self-reflection, self-transformation, inner growth, discovery, and connection with the Supreme!

Thanks a million, The Adventure People- esp Sarala, Parashu, Indira, Chandra and my two wonderful team-mates (S and K).

No problems at all with the organisation, efficiency and experiences.
However, was annoyed at the amount charged due to changes I made because of a medical emergency.

It was a brilliant tour! Jordan is a beautiful country with a rich history and incredibly friendly people. Our tour guide, Saleh, was excellent — his in-depth knowledge of the country’s history and traditions brought every stop to life. He was attentive and caring throughout, ensuring everyone in the group had a wonderful time. There was so many highlights, with the jaw dropping sights of Petra to the memorable camp stay in the Wadi Rum. Jordan is truly a must-see destination, and I would highly recommend this trip for anyone wanting a whistle-stop introduction to this fantastic country.

Had an amazing time on the Women’s Only EBC Trek. Our guide Sarala was absolutely brilliant - attentive, caring, and always looking out for everyone in the group. She made sure we were eating and drinking enough, kept the pace just right, and handled all our banter with a great sense of humour! I felt completely safe and supported with her, no matter how tough things got - and I couldn’t have done this without her.

Our two porters were incredible and did an amazing job - especially Chandra, who took us up to Kala Patthar.

Indira and Parashu Ram were also fantastic - friendly, organised, and ready to help.

Everything ran so smoothly from start to finish, and it was clear the effort that went into planning the whole trip. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
