Summits May Be Steep, But The Rewards Are Beyond Measure. Keep Climbing, Keep Believing!

A very strong and professional team! Had a very nice climb together to Island Peak and Ama Dablam, 100% success in our team!

I believe that the success of an expedition depends not only on good equipment but on good human relations. That is why on my expeditions in Nepal I choose 8k Expeditions.

At 8k we have not only a good structure, but excellent professionals, cordial, attentive, kind, and very competent. On each expedition, I come back with more friends. So I leave here my testimonial and thanks to Pemba, Lakpa, Lakpa T, Tshering, Raj, Kunga, Ashok, Pasang, DK, Nima, Sukra, Suman and many others.

Climbed 7 x 8000-m peaks with this company. Excellent sherpa support and great logistics on the mountains. Highly recommend as your high-altitude climbing outfitter

On the 19th of May 2024 I summited Mount Everest with 8k Expeditions. Before I booked this trip, I carefully compared different providers. Finally, I chose 8k because:

- of their professionalism (they showed me a detailed program with a sound schedule, a gear list and preparation tips)
- they were honest and delivered what we agreed on
- they showed a positive hands-on attitude.

I have never regretted this decision. Climbing Everest with 8K Expeditions was a breathtaking once in a lifetime experience.

Summited Mount Everest with the help of 8K Expedition. Great Basecamp with fantastic kitchen staff and food. (Also they had a cafe in basecamp with great coffee).
Lakpa (the leader) was present at basecamp and organized it very well.
All togheter , i had a great experience with 8K Expedition, professional team.

My Everest summit journey with 8K was wonderful. Before Everest I did EBC trek, lobuche climbing and manaslu climbing with 8k and made the success under their experienced organisation, responsible guidance and improving management. Everytime if I have any problem or query, the management and the team helped to get them resolved in a timely manner. They indeed listen to the client’s voices. And the whole Sherpa team is funny, optimistic and helpful, which made the life in the base camp not boring.Lakpa as director has been stayed in the base camp during the whole expedition of Everest and Manaslu for onsite management. He chose the strongest Sherpa and compensated them well. The leading Sherpas show the strong leadership in mountain which made the expedition less risky. I would say thank you to the whole 8K team for organising, to my guide Halung and mingma for next guidance, without my guides the summit is impossible. Meanwhile, I would like to thank Tsering Pemba, Pema chhiring, Tendi, and Tenji Sherpa who kindly helped me in mountain, and Mr. Pemba, Lakpa T and Yogendra who always do the perfect and timely ground works for we climbers. 🙏

I climbed Everest in 2024 spring with 8K Expeditions and they helped me to achieve my dream. Humble and great leader, good service, professional and skilled team, including sherpas and general staff in the base camp. Would recommend them any time!

Infact found him always nearby whenever needed not only in KTM but also till the top. He is 24 x 7 available with his energetic, enthusiastic team members once you book yourself for your dream projects in the mountains. He takes best decisions after knowing one's strength and weaknesses. Feels the days at base camp & camp 2 the memorable days of my life where I was cared, supported, motivated, nurtured by Lakpa Dai & 8K family members. Found everyone of them very dedicated & commited for their clients. Will always cherish the memories with 8K family members. If anyone ask my advice for best company in mountains will always recommend name of 8K Expeditions Pvt Ltd, the perfect dream finisher to everyone.

Thanks Lakpa Dai & the entire 8K family for supporting me in my dream project & also giving me the feel of being at home for 2 months in my Mount Everest journey.

The service is very familiar, you get good advice from eight thousand experts for expeditions and Trekking. Reasonable prices, highly recommended. Ahh, you are always in good hands!!!

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness

I evaluated a lot of expedition companies and then decided to engage with 8K Expeditions for all my climbing expeditions for the next 3 years. It’s a very professionally managed company, has the best guides and climbers in the industry and I felt the team as family members.

Lakpa, one of the founders was my mentor for my expeditions this year to Lobuche and Himlung. An awesome human being and great leader.

I would recommend 8K Expeditions to amateur climbers like me and also to experienced mountaineers.

I just successfully summited Mt. Everest in May 2024. The expedition was organised very professionally by 8K Expeditions. What I liked about 8K was that the co-founders were at the helm of expedition operations and were supervising it themselves on the field be it at the Base Camp or at Lukla or even at Kathmandu. Plus they had a very good team of strong and experienced climbing Sherpas incl. mine. They are among the top expedition companies in Nepal. Highly recommended.

8k, Super équipe.
Super organisation, de la prise en charges à Kathmandu le 5 avril 2024, puis Lukla, les 65km de marches jusqu’au Base camp… puis l’ascension, camp 1, camp 2, camp 3, camp 4 et puis le sommet le 19 mai 2024!
Sherpa ( Pasang) super guide Pro. Sécurité avant tout.
Un peu plus de tentes ⛺️ au camp 3 pour l’équipe saurait été parfait pour nous 👍🏻
Merci beaucoup à toute l’équipe 8K

8k, Great team.
Great organization, from pick-up in Kathmandu on April 5, 2024, then Lukla, the 65km of walks to Base camp... then the ascent, camp 1, camp 2, camp 3, camp 4 and then the summit on the 19th May 2024!
Sherpa (Pasang) great Pro guide. Safety first.
A few more tents ⛺️ at camp 3 for the team would have been perfect for us 👍🏻
Thank you very much to the entire 8K team

Amazing Team with a very experienced guiding services at top most. Been engaging them for years now for my expeditions in Nepal. One of the highly recommended Travel Agency for adventures in Nepal. My previous climbs for Mera Peak, Yala Peak, Chulu Far East has been one of the most amazing experience with 8K Expeditions Team.

For those who wish to hike, trek or climb peaks in Nepal 8K Expeditions services is highly recommended. Can't wait for my next expedition to Island Peak with 8K in April2022.

We had such a great experience with 8kexpedition!
Upon arrival they waited for us at the airport and after that we had a shuttle straight to our beautiful accommodation, located right in the city centre. Also with a magnific view over the city. I felt very spoiled, which is a super plus considering the effort that followed, so it was a great start of the trip.The name of the hotel is Aloft and I totally recommend it, great facilities and kind staff!!
After 2 nights we started our trip to Lukla and meet our sherpas and porters. Pmba Chhiri, Gombu and Ngimadawa were so careful with us. Always smiling, always carrying.. I would dare to say that we had the greatest Sherpas on our way to Island Peak!!!
Food was also good. Huge thanks for your infinite support and the great skills you have.  Keep going with great work! Maybe we ll see again!

Organized trip to Everest base camp for 8k, an expectacular reception, supervision and follow-up, trained guides and very attentive to everything, without any kind of detail in the air, without a doubt I will repeat with them, both kunga and Yangchen sherpa They have everything under control at all times, something very important at that altitude, without a doubt the best agency in Kathmandu, from the reception and processing of documents before the trip to the last day, a 10 to 10 in everything.

8K has great service to their valued clients with great attention to details, safety and excellent value for their clients hard earned money. Excellent success rates for their trekking / climbing clients and when I was with them to climb Everest 2022 we were eating like we were at a 5 star hotel but in basecamp. I am talking chicken sizzlers and chicken Cordon bleu just to name a couple and every night was different and delicious. We also had very comfortable large personal box tents with thick comfortable mattresses and sit toilets for much comfort. Their customer service is equivalent to that of companies who charge more than $80,000 USD for Mt Everest but at half this cost. Not only all of this but 8K Expeditions pvt is leading the way in supporting and helping suffering disadvantaged children in the remote Himalayas. I am a very happy customer and this is the only company that I would recommend and highly endorse as I worked in customer service for many years and I am very detail oriented. Simply put, 8K is number one!!! D B Bethell.

8K Expedition the climbing company which i associate to Climb Mt.Everest(8848.86). My experience with 8k Expedition has been overwhelmingly positive. As the company gives me a very excellent Facilities, a good leadership by Lakpa Sherpa Brother, Luxurious Accommodation at Basecamp,Quality Foods, Friendly Kitchen Staff,Ample resources, and competent climbers from 8k Expedition have the highest level of success.” I Personally Highly recommend 8k Expedition probably the best Expedition company from Nepal. Now, it’s your trun to see the world in a totally new way, explore the true wildernesses of the world, and learn some new skills in the process, push yourself outside from your comfort zones, both mentally and physically. Thank-you so much!

Regards
Chhiring Sherpa

Despite atempting Ama Dablam unsupported, we sitll need help to arrange  climbing permit and base camp support. 8kexpedtions has done an excellent job, and we are so grateful for you letting us stay 2 nights in the  Everest Base Camp and do some glacier training with your 2022 Everest Team.

Una agencia muy profesional, todo bajo control, sin cabos sueltos, con una atención exquisita desde el momento de recogida del aeropuerto hasta el final. Muy agradecida!!!!! Repetiría con esta agencia para otro trekking en Nepal. Impresionante la labor de Yangchen, Chandra, Lakba , Kunga.... Gracias a tod@s de corazón?❤

(Translation) A very professional agency, everything under control, without loose ends, with exquisite attention from the moment of collection from the airport until the end. Grateful!!!!! I would repeat with this agency for another trekking in Nepal. The work of Yangchen, Chandra, Lakba, Kunga is impressive... Thanks to all of you from the bottom of my heart ?❤

My experience with 8k was perfect, i’ve been on lobuche and ama-dablam, and i can say that everything, was great, stuff, kitchen, lodges. Thank you very much, hope to join 8k, on everest 2025.

Climbed Himlung Himal with 8K Oct/Nov 2021 along with five Icelandic friends and the smile is still stuck on my face. The food in BC was out of this world really given the circumstances and location and believe me the importance of good food on trips like that cannot be overrated. Top-notch guiding, top-of-the-line equipment, excellent facilities at BC, and all in all great experience from the moment we landed in Kathmandu till the moment we left Nepal.

Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value

8k expeditions is lead by Lakpa Sherpa whom i know personally and have worked with him in 2020. He is an absolute professional with amazing knowledge and skill and craft in mountaineering, a great leader and a kind human being. I can totally recommend him and his services, you cannot go wrong with him. 
I am planning another expedition with lakpa  dai and 8k expeditions this September 2022, will share my experience after its over.

One of the best expedition and trekking company in Nepal. Specially it's whole staff and Pemba, the director! Really professional guides and climbers. Thanks particularly to Kunga, Chandra and Yangchhen. Amazing people

Definitely the best expedition company to go with in Nepal! Did Ama Dablam with 8k back in April 2024. Amazing experience and service from the entire team. 5 stars service from the moment I landed in Kathmandu until the day I came back to my country. Highly recommended for expeditions!

I did Everest base camp and Summit Lobuche East Peak 6119m with 8k expeditions, and I had the best experience ever. Highly recommended!!!

8k have great People and a perfect crowd. You will have a lot of fun with this group and you will feel safe. I will be back!!!

I did the Everest Three Passes with this company! Perfection on top of perfection! I highly recommend it! A dynamic, friendly and efficient company! Honestly, I don't have a negative point to give about the 24 days I was accompanied by 8K!

I was with the company on ebc and imja tse. Polcema 10000%. Professionalism and commitment. Full care throughout my stay in Nepal. Dorje Sherpa Guide super. Shout out to the whole 8K crew and Base Camp Chef Imja Tse!!! Greetings to Tomek POLAND

A great team made up of professionals who allowed me to realize my dream of climbing one of the peaks of the Himalayas. I was very satisfied with the level and kindness of the agency's guides and porters. A big hello to you from Algeria

We can Just say thank you to Nima, Kipa and Pemba, to lead us to summit of Island peak. We always feel safe and staying in the best lodges. At the end of the expedición Pemba made the impossible to bring us to KTM despite the bad weather. Hope Next year we can climb Ama Dablan,? thanks for everything. Spanish Group.

Going trekking or climbing mountains in Nepal? I recommend 8K Expeditions because of their professionalism. They are not there for the hype and fame, they really do love Nepal and mountains. They helped me to make my dream come true - to live paint paint at the base camp! Thanks for that I gifted one of the paintings to 8K owner Lakpa. I also had the best guide while trekking - Shekhar Tamang. Really nice and helpful guy, so I recommend asking him as your guide.

One of the most important recommendation from me is to do your homework, read about altitude sickness A LOT so that you will know what's going on with your body. This way you can be confident in yourself and not be bothered too much if some of the symptoms appear.

So glad that we choose 8K, very professional and fast respond when something bad happen. Although i didn't finish the trek cuz my condition not allowed me, but i really enjoyed the journey, so amazing with spectacular views. So much thankfull to our excelent guide Nirmal (always stay behind me and look after me) and Raj, and Yangchhen (she's the best 👍🏼) for the fast respond evacuation and manage everything from afar, me and my friends arrived safely at kathmandu. I hope i can go back there with better condition 😊

I loved my expedition with 8k this autumn, normally on expéditions we loose weight but we gained weight because of a great cooker ! I loved the ambiance, young and dynamic teams, the managers try to do their best, try to deal with everything, listen to you and try to find a solution at everything even if sometimes the conditions are not easy ! their priority is safety first ! I recommend !

Embarking on the unforgettable journey to Everest Base Camp on April 22nd with 8K Expeditions has been an extraordinary experience. Their team of experienced leaders, including Pemba, Ashok, and Shekar, along with their dedicated junior staff Tenzing and others, have been incredibly kind, helpful, and knowledgeable throughout the trek. The reasonable prices offered by the company make it accessible to all adventurers. Furthermore, having the chance to meet directors like Lakpa and Pemba Sherpa, who embody a customer-first attitude, truly enhances the overall expedition experience. Their commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction sets the tone for the entire company, making every moment of the expedition memorable and deeply appreciated.

Hospitable and Humble mountaineering gurus who'd go the extra mile in every single thing they do with their trade!

Wish them, Most and More in their all endevours l! ?

Very good agency!
We did EBC and Island Peak, 100% succes for my group.
Very good organization, sherpas always kind and careful to our needs.
The best lodges and food we could have.

Had very cool experience with 8K in EBC trekking. First of all it is your trip without any headache. And it does not matter what it's about - plane or heli flight, lodge or info about town and summits. You will get all in time and with a great quality.
Second - a great people, who are 8K. Very professional, attentive and friendly.
Special thanks for Nawang (my guide) and Yangchhen.
Will be back soon))))
