Itinerary

Everest Base Camp stands as the holy grail for trekkers worldwide—a challenging trail that promises both thrill and awe in equal measure. This 12-day Everest Base Camp trek in Nepal leads you into the heart of the Himalayas, where every bend reveals snow-draped peaks against vibrant blue skies, and each village offers a glimpse into Sherpa culture. Tailored for adventurous young adults and seasoned travelers, this tour strikes the perfect balance between exhilaration and expert support, ensuring your journey is both rewarding and safe.

Your expedition begins with a scenic flight from Kathmandu to the legendary Lukla airstrip, the gateway to the Everest region. From there, the trek follows the iconic Dudh Koshi river valley, passing through vibrant Sherpa settlements such as Namche Bazaar, Tengboche, and Dingboche. Along the way, you'll encounter Buddhist monasteries, fluttering prayer flags, and yak caravans—each step immersing you deeper into the mountain way of life.

Climbing to a peak altitude of 5,545 meters at Kala Patthar, you’ll be rewarded with jaw-dropping vistas of Mount Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, and Makalu—four of the world’s six highest peaks.

A dream come true

I did Everest base camp trek in the month of April 2023 with the support of this local travel specialist and it was one of my favorite treks. The view of the mountains were incredible throughout the journey. Most importantly view from Kala Patthar view point was spectacular. Overall my Everest base camp trek was remarkable.

A dream come true

We travelled to Nepal this November for Everest Base Camp trek. The communication with the manager of of our local tour operator was very smooth. His was always efficient and professional. Pricing was reasonable too. We met our guide and left for Lukla. Our whole trekking experience was perfect, all thanks to our excellent guide. He knew everything about the trek and was always willing to discuss different options. The trek was truly customized to meet our needs. We did not have to worry about anything at any stage of the trek. Everything was sorted out for us, so that we could solely focus on the atmosphere, scenery and tranquility of Himalayas. Our guide was had vast knowledge regarding local culture, religion and history. He answered all our questions - in fact, we spent several hours talking about different aspects of life in Nepal. During the trek we were also able to observe other guides and I have to say that we were very lucky. The experience, professionalism and communication skills of our guide was just perfect.

Best trip to the Himalayas

Booked 12 days Everest base camp trek in 2020 and successfully did it in the autumn season of 2022. Due to the covid, we postponed our trip for two years. We were 6 friends from Malaysia. Their price is very reasonable and they are professional too. Our guide and porters were experienced and well equipped. Throughout our 12 days Everest trek, we were commenced by our guide from Kathmandu and met our porters in Lukla and then walked through Phakding, Namche, Tengboche, Dingboche, Lobuche and EBC via Gorakshep together. We also hiked Kala Patthar early in the morning for breathtaking Everest view. At the end of the trek, we stuck 2 nights in Lukla due to the bad weather. Eventually, we were able to fly back to Kathmandu after two days of bad weather. Lastly, we would like to thank your entire team for your top-notch Everest trek service. It was a brilliant trip in Nepal.
