We just returned from a 12 day trek to Everest Base Camp with Norsang Lama from High Camp Trekking. We had an incredible experience and I highly recommend Norsang and High Camp Trekking. Norsang is careful with the planning and scheduling so that you have time and treks to acclimate to the the altitude, which is very important if you want to be successful and reach EBC. We joked about all the things that Norsang did for us to make our trip a success and incredible once-in-a-lifetime experience, and started making a list.
Not only was he a competent guide, but also served as:
– Teacher
– Server/waiter
– Psychologist
– Lab Tech – checking our blood oxygen levels
– Cheerleader
– Photographer
– Comedian
– Mentor
– Businessman / Manager
– Climber
– Nutritionist
– Naturalist
– Stove Tender
Norsang, and his assistant guide/porter, went out of their way to serve us, always looking out for our needs and our best interests. They are men of integrity and strength. The trip was well organized and communication was prompt and thorough. If you are considering a trek in Nepal, I highly recommend Norsang and High Camp Trekking!
