Amazing Alternative Route to Everest Base Camp with Eco Holidays Nepal
I’m from the USA, and I always thought flying was the only way to start the Everest Base Camp trek. Thanks to Eco Holidays Nepal, I discovered there’s another option going by vehicle from Jiri and it was such a fantastic experience. Traveling by road gave me a chance to see more of Nepal and made the journey feel even more special.
The trek was perfectly organized, and the team at Eco Holidays Nepal provided excellent service throughout. I truly enjoyed every moment of this unique adventure. Highly recommended!
