We
did Everest base camp trek for 14 days after the two major earthquakes in
Nepal. Before the trek, I was thinking about to cancel my trek like any other
travelers, but the 50 % amount was already paid for our trek.
We also receive suggestions from the company
where we booked our trek (Nepal Planet Treks and Expedition). The owner of the
company, sanjib himself was always replying and very quickly responding to all
our emails and concerns. He assured us that 100 % amount will be refunded, if
incase we would have to cancel our trek due to the broken trails resulting from
the major earthquake. Our ticket was already booked and confirmed for Nepal and
we heard the media spreading the news that Everest trail and many other
trekking trails were fully destroyed. But that was NOT TRUE at all. We decided
ourselves to fly to Nepal and self check then decide for the trek during our
stay in Kathmandu.
Taking the suggestions of the company, we started
our trek at the beginning of June. Guide sanjib from Nepal Planet treks was
extremely helpful throughout the journey. We hardly met 25 trekkers in our
whole 14 days trek.
The camp 'Phiriche' was affected and many tea
houses were damaged. Even in Namche and Lukla, few tea houses were damaged in
every camp. I met two trekkers on the way and they repeated to us that (second
time to the Everest Base camp) they found all the trekking trails exactly the
same as before and not even a single damaged was noted anywhere. We finished
our trek successfully without any problem but many hoteliers and people from
Khumbu were worried because the rest of the world was thinking that the trail
of The Everest Base camp is destroyed. NOT TRUE. AS WE DID THE TREK BY OURSELF
AND SAY IT IS SAFE AS BEFORE.
Thank you Sanjib and the team of Nepal Planet
Treks and Expedition for helping us make our dreams come true even in such a
critical situation. We will be back gain and join your company for the next
trek. See you soon.
