Climb High Himalaya was the only company that understood what I was looking for
I had never been on a trek before so I did not know anything about preparing or planning for a 22 day trek to Gokyo, EBC and Island Peak.
There are a lot of trekking companies in Nepal so finding the right one can be overwhelming. I met with several companies and Climb High Himalaya was the only company that understood what I was looking for. The team at Climb High was both professional and incredibly kind.
On my trek, my guide Chwangba was incredible. I always felt safe and knew no matter what issue would come up, Chwangba and Climb High Himalaya would take care of it. Thanks to Climb High Himalaya, I had the trek of a lifetime, reaching the top of Island Peak and seeing the beautiful
Everest region. I plan on doing more treks and climbs in Nepal, and Climb High Himalaya will be my company of choice. I fully recommend Climb High Himalaya to anyone looking to explore the majestic Himalayas.

Excellent Trip over 6 passes
We did a quite hard trekking in a group of two people over 6 passes in Everest Region. We crossed Renjo La, Cho La, Kongma La, Amphulapcha La, Mera La, Zatrwa La, went to the Everest Basecamp, Kala Patthar and climbed Lobuche East.
We did the trip with Climb High Himalaya and they offer us an absolutely fair price. The office is located in the heart of Thamel and you are always warmly welcomed there. Amber who is the owner of the company gave me all the information before we travelled to Nepal. He organised this special trekking exactly as we wished, he speaks English well and he is very professional and helpful. During the trekking he also informed our family at home that everything is fine.
Chongba was our trekking and climbing guide. He was always very friendly and we had a lot of fun with him. He took care of us every day and provided us perfect service in lodges and during camping. He made a lot of nice pictures for us.
We were lucky and had perfect weather for three weeks. The service was excellent from the beginning to the end. I highly recommend Climb High Himalaya for trekking or mountaineering. Thank you very much! We will never forget this fantastic and perfect trip.

Fantastic Experience Trekking Island Peak
My friend and I used Climb High Himalaya to organize an attempt on Island Peak during October 2014. Before arriving in Kathmandu, neither of us had heard about the various ‘Trekking Peaks’ found throughout Nepal. After reading a snippet in a Lonely Planet guide, we were convinced that we had to give it a shot and set out to meet with each of the five or so climbing outfits recommended in the guidebook. Since neither my friend nor I had any previous climbing experience, it was very important to us that we did our homework and found the most reputable agency. After meeting with each of the groups to discuss cost, timing, logistics, etc., Climb High was the clear choice. The price for a three day climb of Island Peak was comparable to the other groups we spoke with, but the level of service and professionalism was far superior.
We dealt primarily with the owner, Amber, who was a pleasure to work with and who consistently exceeded our expectations. Since Climb High’s offices are located right at the heart of Thamel, we found ourselves meeting with Amber quite frequently in the days leading up to our departure, asking not only about the climb, but really any question we had about Nepal generally. He was a fantastic resource and a genuinely caring person. We ended up going to dinner more than once — not just as clients but as friends!
If you are considering a trek or a climb in Nepal, you simply can’t go wrong choosing Climb High. It is a first-rate outfit run by sincere and knowledgeable guides who will go out of their way to look after you.
Everyone back home wants to hear about the trekking / Island Peak and I’m happy to share the story! It truly was an unforgettable experience and I’m thankful to Climb High. It was great getting to know Climb High — it’s a great group.

Really awesome.
I can’t say enough good things about our guide and porter and our base camp crew. I recommend Climb High over any western travel group and that is saying a lot as I usually travel with G Adventures or Intrepid. Climb high offers more flexibility in the itinerary and customizes each trip for each group. They keep the groups small (usually who you book with). The food and accommodation was great the entire trip.

Top Team Delivered during difficult times
I can’t speak highly enough of Climb High Himalaya. We happened to be out on the Mera Peak trip when the earthquake struck. Despite being a difficult time for everyone in Nepal, our trip was so well organised..
we managed to achieve what we had aimed to do, and on top of that managed to travel around, and from, the country with ease, where others were not so lucky.
In Kathmandu nothing was ever too much trouble for Amber who always managed to solve any problems we had with a calm, friendly, professionalism. On the mountain, the quiet but cheery Sangay was a patient and obviously skilled guide, who made some good calls that saved us getting into unnecessary trouble. The rest of the team all made us feel welcome and fed us up nicely!
I came away from Nepal with a genuine affection for the Nepalese people, and a lot of that is due to being fortunate enough to meet the Climb High team. I hope to be back soon and, if I was heading into the mountains again, there would be no reason to choose any other company.

I had the trip of a lifetime
A big thank you to Amber, Dawa and Chirring. I had the trip of a lifetime. They run a great outfit and I really enjoyed my time in Nepal. I am delighted to have summitted the 3 peaks and I hope to visit again someday and look to go a bit higher.
Again,a big thank you to Amber for helping make it such a successful and rewarding experience

Großartige Betreuung u. Organisation
Climb High hat die gesamte Tour vom ersten Tag in Kathmandu perfekt organisiert und freundlich betreut. Wanderung zum Mt.-Everest-Basecamp war super, Höhenanpassung völlig problemlos (und ohne Medikamente); Begleitung immer freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir haben alle Sherpas in unser Herz geschlossen und können eine Tour mit Climb High bestens empfehlen. Wir waren eine kleine Gruppe mit drei Paaren und es blieben keine Wünsche offen.
