Trekking to Everest Base Camp without flying was a unique and rewarding experience! Instead of dealing with flight delays and cancellations at Lukla, Haven Holidays arranged a comfortable drive to Salleri, allowing us to explore the lower Solu region before connecting with the classic EBC route. The trek had everything—lush forests, traditional Sherpa villages, and stunning mountain views. It was more challenging than the standard route, but the gradual elevation gain helped me acclimate better. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights about the culture and mountains along the way. If you want a less commercialized and more adventurous trek to Everest Base Camp, this is the perfect option. Haven Holidays made sure everything was seamless, and I would absolutely do it again.
Avoiding Lukla flights was the best decision I made for my Everest Base Camp trek! Haven Holidays organized everything perfectly, from the jeep ride to Phaplu to the well-paced itinerary. The extra days of trekking before reaching the main trail made a huge difference in my acclimatization and overall endurance. What stood out the most was the incredible service—our guide and porters were professional, friendly, and made sure we had the best experience. The trek was challenging but rewarding, with breathtaking landscapes, welcoming Sherpa villages, and awe-inspiring views of Everest and its surrounding peaks. If you're looking for a well-organized, hassle-free trek to Everest Base Camp without the stress of flying, I can't recommend Haven Holidays enough.
I recently completed the Everest Base Camp Trek without flying with Haven Holidays, and it was an incredible experience! The trek started with a scenic drive to Salleri, allowing us to experience Nepal’s stunning countryside and avoid the unpredictable Lukla flights. While the trek was longer than the traditional route, it provided a more immersive experience with fewer crowds in the early days. Our guide was outstanding—knowledgeable, patient, and always making sure we were comfortable. The teahouses along the way were well-chosen, offering great hospitality and warm meals. The gradual ascent helped with acclimatization, and I felt much stronger reaching Base Camp compared to my previous trek where I flew to Lukla. For anyone looking for an alternative way to reach Everest Base Camp while enjoying more of Nepal’s beauty, I highly recommend this trek with Haven Holidays. It was an adventure of a lifetime.
I traveled with a group of fellow pilgrims, and the experience was beyond what I had imagined. Haven Holidays handled all the formalities with Tibetan and Nepalese authorities, ensuring a hassle-free journey. The accommodations were comfortable, and our guide provided great insights into Buddhist and Hindu traditions associated with Mt. Kailash. The highlight was undoubtedly walking the three-day Kora trek—tough, but life-changing. If you want an organized, safe, and spiritually uplifting journey to Mt. Kailash, don’t hesitate to book with Haven Holidays.

Haven Holidays went above and beyond to make our Mt. Kailash Overland Tour smooth and comfortable. They ensured we had proper acclimatization days, nutritious food, and well-managed transport across the Tibetan plateau. The guides were extremely helpful and knew the terrain well, which made us feel safe despite the high altitude. The Kora was physically challenging but spiritually fulfilling. Seeing Lake Manasarovar and doing the holy dip was an unforgettable moment. A heartfelt thank you to Haven Holidays for their excellent service. I would definitely travel with them again!
