*Caveat to the option above, my father and I trekked together (no teens).
We had a great time! This was my second time trekking with Himalayan Glacier, and with the most excellent guide, Babu. Himalyan Glacier did a great job making our trip go smoothly, managing all the logistical details so that we could focus on the fun stuff.
The Everest Base Camp trek is quite spectacular, from start to finish, traversing dramatic mountain terrain. Trekking with a guide and porter really elevates the experience. Both Babu (our guide) and Nikesh (our porter) were friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Both went to all lengths to make sure my dad and I had a fantastic trip--including tweaking our itinerary to our needs, and helping arrange for a helicopter ride when we were contending with a (non-life-threatening) injury.
For anyone considering trekking in Nepal, I would highly recommend Himalayan Glacier--they provide a great value. I plan to trek with them again whenever I get a chance to return to Nepal!
