Itinerary
For trekkers seeking to escape the crowds of Everest but still experience the grandeur of the Himalayas, the "Ama Dablam Base Camp Trek" is an exceptional choice. This eleven-day, private guided trekking tour starts in Kathmandu and takes you via Lukla and Namche Bazaar to the base of Mount Ama Dablam—one of the region’s most iconic peaks. Along the way, travel through peaceful Sherpa villages, ancient forests, and trail sections that reveal sweeping views of Ama Dablam, Everest, Lhotse, and Nuptse. The unique selling point of this trip is its off-the-beaten-path route, offering a pristine trekking experience with the same breathtaking vistas as the classic Everest trail, but with fewer crowds and deeper cultural immersion.
