The Everest Base Camp Trek is the closet thing you will come to actually climbing the 8,850-meter behemoth.
No wonder, why Everest Base Camp Trek has captured the imagination of so many intrepid travelers around the world.

Be a part of this epic 15-day guided journey to Everest Base Camp with us and fulfil your bucket-list dream.
Our adventure begins with a scenic flight from Kathmandu to Tenzing-Hillary Airport in Lukla, the starting point of the trek. From Lukla, we will follow the popular Everest trail, through mountain valleys, villages, forests and streams. We will reach Everest Base Camp on Day 10 of our itinerary.

Along the way, we will make stopovers in various mountain towns and villages. There, we will get to acquaint ourselves with the lifestyle and culture of the local Sherpa community.

Namche Bazaar, the gateway to the Everest region; the ancient Tengboche Monastery; the mountain villages of Dingbouche and Lobuche; Khumbu Glacier; Gorakshep, a small settlement on a frozen lakebed; and Kala Patthar, which affords the best known view of the Everest massif and the surrounding peaks will be among the many highlights of our journey.


Note: We highly recommend that you employ the services of a porter, as trekking in the Everest region for up to six hours a day while bearing the weight of your backpack could be exhausting.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about this tour.
  • How much money do I need to bring with me?

    Your personal budget obviously depends on your spending habits and what is included in your trip cost. If accommodation is included, but meals are not, we would suggest that you bring around 30 USD per day per person for meals. Having a hot shower or charging your device sometimes costs extra. There are also sometimes small crafts/souvenirs to buy along the trekking route which you may want to bring extra money for. Also, consider whether you would be staying in Kathmandu or Pokhara before or after your trek.

  • What is the weather going to be like when I travel to Everest Base Camp?

    The weather in Nepal varies by season. For example, November to January is the dry season with sunny days, clear skies and usually no rain. However, on Everest Base Camp, the temperatures at this altitude will be cold, particularly at night. February to May and September to October is the most popular time to travel to EBC, with usually fairly dry and stable weather, although there may be the occasional shower. June to August is monsoon season in Nepal, but once you pass 3,000 meters altitude there is less and less rain. Check out our guide on the best time to visit Nepal for more on specific monthly climate and seasons.

  • Is quarantine in Nepal in effect for arriving visitors?

    There are no quarantine requirements in Nepal for arriving visitors at the moment.

  • Are there bag weight restrictions for the small aircraft flight from Kathmandu to Lukla?

    Yes. The baggage weight allowance on the flight from Kathmandu to Lukla is 10 kg for checked baggage plus 5kg for hand baggage for a total of 15 kg. Bags overweight will be charged approximately USD 1 per kg over the limit.

     

  • How much should my backpack weigh?

    A properly packed backpack (not including your day pack) should ideally not weigh more than 13 kg. It is also important to note that if you are taking a flight to the start of your trek, many smaller aircraft have weight restrictions. For example, if you are flying from Kathmandu to Lukla, you are only allowed 10kg of checked luggage, and 5 kg of hand baggage. Thus, in case of a small flight, you should ideally pack a 10 kg backpack for checked luggage, and then add 5 kg in your hand baggage. You can then re-shuffel the weigt once you start your trek at the trailhead.
