Overview
Everest Base Camp trekking is a famous type of adventure trekking in Nepal. This trek will changes your views on reality. The tour will offer you spectacular views of Mt Everest and other snow peaks in a charming and adventurous style.
What to Expect

On this Everest Base Camp Trekking will give us massive pleasure to introduce you to an amazing Mt. Everest view of the world's highest peak. Perhaps in viewing Everest in this way, you will be satisfying a long detained wish. Without hesitation you will never be quite the same again. Forever since the days of early climbing Everest expeditions, this 8,848m mountain has had a lure of its own, drawing climbers to scale it and trekkers to look on its icy faces. It easy to see why the trek to the base camp of Mount Everest has become one of the most well-liked trekking routes in Nepal.

We begin our trek from Lukla after a 30 minute flight from Kathmandu. When we land at that miniature airstrip of Lukla, the adventure really begins. During trekking, we spend several days moving through the homelands of the Sherpa people, and will see Buddhist monasteries in Tengboche, Panboche and close up views of Mt. Everest and adjoining Ama Dablam, measured by many to be among the most attractive mountains in Nepal. We spend two nights at Namche Bazaar, the bustling market town in the heart of Sherpa country, and at Pheriche see a cluster of houses set among the high summer grazing pastures of the region. We spend the time in Namche Bazaar exploring and acclimatizing, which is an important factor in your enjoyment of the trekking.

People who have fully acclimatized may trek to the Everest Base Camp but without doubt, for many people the main highlight will be the brilliant views of the Mt Everest, Pumari which clarify from the summit of Kalapathar - the extradinary ice sculptures of the Khumbu Glacier, Nuptse and the south-west face of Everest.
