Everest Base Camp Trek
The classic walk through the Khumbu to the foot of the world's highest mountain. Sherpa villages, monasteries, and stone-carved prayers at every turn.
Private, fully customised tours across the Himalayas — Everest, Annapurna, Upper Mustang, Kathmandu and beyond. Designed around you, guided by locals, delivered with quiet precision.
Family-run, Kathmandu-based, proudly Nepali.
Nepali Private Tours was founded by a small circle of mountain guides who grew up in the valleys, ridges and high passes of Nepal. We set out to do one thing exceptionally well: design private journeys that feel personal, unhurried and genuinely connected to the country we call home.
Every itinerary we create begins with a conversation. Whether you have ten days or ten weeks, whether you dream of standing at Everest Base Camp at sunrise or drifting through the temples of Patan in soft afternoon light, our job is to shape the journey around you — not the other way around.
We handle the logistics quietly and precisely: permits, lodges, private vehicles, weather calls, altitude pacing, rescue planning. What you feel, instead, is freedom — the freedom to walk at your own rhythm, to stop when a view moves you, to follow a conversation in a tea house for an extra hour.
Each of these is a starting point. Every itinerary is adjusted to your dates, fitness, interests and pace before you ever leave home.
The classic walk through the Khumbu to the foot of the world's highest mountain. Sherpa villages, monasteries, and stone-carved prayers at every turn.
From subtropical rice terraces to the wind-raked high desert of Mustang. Cross the Thorong La and descend into the sacred valley of Muktinath.
Permit-restricted, otherworldly. Ochre cliffs, cave monasteries, and the last genuinely Tibetan walled city in Nepal — Lo Manthang.
Durbar squares, living temples, hidden courtyards, and the finest Newari cuisine in the country — guided by a historian, not a script.
Boats on Phewa Lake, sunrise at Sarangkot over the Annapurnas, paragliding, and quiet cafés in the foothills of the giants.
Jeep safaris, silent canoe drifts, rhinos at dusk, and a night in the jungle with the best naturalists of the Terai.
We deliberately keep our operation compact so that every journey stays personal — from the first email to the last transfer back to the airport.
You work with the same planner from first enquiry to final day. No call centres, no handovers, no generic templates.
Every guide on our team was raised in or near the region they lead. Their stories are personal, their knowledge is lived.
Oximeters, evacuation plans, oxygen at altitude, satellite comms on remote routes. The boring stuff, done properly.
Fair porter wages, no single-use plastics on trek, community lodges where possible, and a percentage of every tour donated locally.
A small, senior team of licensed guides, trek leaders and cultural specialists — most of whom have been with us for over a decade.
Born in Solukhumbu, Pemba has been guiding since 2004 and has reached Everest Base Camp more than 90 times. He speaks fluent English, Nepali and Sherpa, and considers altitude pacing something close to a religion.
Anthropologist by training, Kathmandu native by birth. Maya leads our valley heritage itineraries and holds an encyclopaedic knowledge of Newari architecture, ritual calendars and the best momo shops in every neighbourhood.
Anil grew up in Pokhara and has crossed the Thorong La more than 120 times. He is a certified Wilderness First Responder and has led our Upper Mustang journeys since 2015.
Everything was flawless — the pacing, the lodges, the way Pemba read the weather and adjusted our route without ever making it feel like a compromise. This is the most professionally run private tour I've ever taken.
Maya walked us through Patan for six hours and it felt like twenty minutes. I've travelled a lot in Asia — this was the first time a city truly unfolded for me. Worth every rupee.
We had two kids, a tight schedule and a lot of questions. Every single one was answered before we even booked. The trip itself was unforgettable — Upper Mustang especially.
