This 15-day trip begins from the buzzing town of Kathmandu. The noisy crowd in the capital city is completely different from what you will experience in the Base Camp, Chola pass, and Gokyo Lakes. An exhilarating flight to Lukla takes you to the Khumbu region of Nepal. As you hike up along the Dudhkoshi region, you enter into Sagarmatha National Park and move ahead to Everest Base Camp via Namche. The trail again leads us into a valley with turquoise colored Gokyo lakes. Bask in the splendor of Ngozumpa glacier, the Gokyo lakes from Gokyo RI and the thrill of crossing the icy trail along Cho La pass.
Come along and join us in experiencing the isolated mountainous communities and scenery in its own undisturbed habitat. We will make your journey a memorable one!

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.

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.
- Do I need a porter?

Do I require a porter for carrying water?
On most popular treks you can expect plenty of places where you can refill your water bottle, meaning you don’t need to carry a huge water supply with you. Bring an extra bottle of water if you are concerned. If you already have a porter, you can ask him/her to carry water as long as it is within the weight limit. Another option is to carry water purification tablets or LifeStraw, both of which can be found in Kathmandu.
