Highly experienced guides – going the extra mile

We are incredibly proud of all our team – from our porters to our kitchen teams and guides. They always go above and beyond. This year we are proud to say that our guide Tejan Gurung, TJ, completed his 14 peaks challenge! The former British Commando summitted all the highest peaks in under 2 years and five months, and becomes the youngest British male to do so, at just 29 years old. Also huge congratulations to Pasang Tendi Sherpa, who also completed his 14 peaks! They received a heroes’ welcome on their return to Kathmandu: read all about it here.

In this job our favourite part is always seeing our clients achieve! From treks to 14 peaks and beyond! Huge congratulations to Nimsdai Store Ambassador Nikol Kovalchuck who has now been on 17 expeds with us and conquered the peaks and the Seven Summits – she has just finished climbing Mt Vinson in Antarctica! Huge congratulations to all our clients – from Ama Dablam team to Kilimanjaro and our bespoke Lobuche Training Camp! It is always a pleasure to share these adventures with you all and share the Nepalese culture – from Puja Day to the very first team dinner – we are with you every step of the way!

From the foothills to the peaks – our top expeditions 2024

Treks are a brilliant way for people to experience the vibrant culture and heritage of the Big Mountains – this year we helped so many people take their first steps into the mountains, with treks including to Everest Base Camp, Three Peaks Pass and Annapurna Base camp.

 

Following this, our clients have been loving our trekking peak climbs like Kilimanjaro in Tanzania and Aconcagua in Argentina. These beautiful peaks are  the perfect first step up into the world of mountaineering. You can see our video about Kilimanjaro here, it gives a great insight into the trip and what you will experience.

Bigger and better for 2025.

Elite Exped is excited to announce two brand new expeditions for 2025. Firstly, our very first UK climbing experience at Ben Nevis.

Seven Summits and 14 Peaks – make 2025 your year to achieve!

Or if you have a record in mind, we can help you make it a reality. We offer the ability to work with our high-altitude camera team to capture your expedition – so if you want to create a documentary later – or want stunning footage for your social media, we can help.
