Tour Overview
The trek is also a good chance to learn about the unique Sherpa culture in the hidden mountain valleys. Witnessing Lama, nuns & monks praying in monasteries in pin-drop silence & balancing on suspension bridges – that cross the same river five times on a single day’s trek – which gets you each time a bit higher. Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa were the first people to climb Mount Everest on May 28, 1953 and from the 70’s the trekking route ( Everest Trekking Tour) was established. In this Everest base camp trekking tour – you will be following the steps of those legends. Trekking tour starts after an introductory tour of Kathmandu valley. Kathmandu is the capital of Nepal and also a hub of history of Nepal. Most of Nepal will be introduced in a day tour, by our local guides. Insights of the city tour and trekking in the remote mountains – towards the basecamp of tallest peak in the world; certainly makes an awesome trip indeed. Hidden valley to Khunde & Khumjung villages, Manni walls and Stupas, and especially Mt. Amadablam along the trail will be some of the many interesting subjects to talk about with your guide.

From domestic terminal of Kathmandu airport you will fly to Lukla through the beautiful mountains. It takes about 30 minutes to get to Lukla from Kathmandu on a very small aircraft. Once you get near Lukla, on a clear day you can see Everest for the first time, and other surrounding mountains are awesome to look at during the entire flight. Once you get to lukla, your trekking guide will brief you about the trail in short and you will start walking for about 3 hours towards Phakding. Phakding is small riverside village, inside the river valley. Your first night at Everest region will be at altitude of 2600 meters in a tea house at Phakding. Though the flight to Lukla, also infamous for being the worlds most dangerous airprt, shortens your trip and saves your energy for coming days, an option for a die-hard trekking lover is to trek through Jiri to Namche bazzar adding a few more days of trekking through the jungles and beautiful landscapes.
Day 4 : Trek From Phakding To Namche (3440M/11283Ft).
Location: Namche Bazar
Amazing curvilinear valley facing Mt. Tamserku, Mt. Kusumkangeu and Mt. Khongde on the right of the Namchhe Bazzar is awaited destination of Everest trekking. Today’s walk is nice and the view is changing from jungle to bushes. Once we get to the village Namche you will be stunned with the size of the mountains you see around. Walk from Phakding to Namche is long in distance but more than half of the distance is easy and flat, only the end just before Namche is uphill. Overnight at Teahouse in Namche
Day 5 : Rest Day In Namche (3440M/11283Ft).
Location: Namche Bazar
Today is more for acclimatization. The theory of acclimatizing is to trek high and sleep low. We do the same this day, there are plenty of options to hike for the entire day. If you visit the National park museum you will witness Everest Mountain range view for the first time. (Explore Everest View hotel, Sagarmatha National park & Khumjung/Khunde Village or Hidden Valley Called Thame). Overnight at the same tea house as you are acclimatizing.
Day 6 : Trek To Tengboche (3870M/12694Ft) (Here You Will See Region's Old Monastery)
Location: Tyangboche
This day of the Everest base camp trek will embed the magnificent view of Mt. Amadablam, along with the spiritual and cultural aspects. Tengboche is a small village just with 5 tea houses and a huge monastery. Landscape is nice, the village is located at the end of a ridge and monastery is to the very end of the ridge. Walk today is short but towards the end of the day you are climbing for two hours or more. The climbing part is after lunch break, thus you will have good energy and walking through the beautiful rhododendron forest keeps you going. Once you get to the top of Thyangboche, Everest will come even closer and Mt. Amadablam will be really beautiful. Do not miss to watch stars during the night. Overnight at local teahouse at Thyangboche.

Day 8 : Rest Day In Dingboche [4350M/14268Ft] And Acclimatization Hike Up To Nangkarsng Peak (5080M/16662Ft).
Location: Dingboche
As we reach the altitude above 4000meters we need another acclimatization day; we take a break for an extra day here and make sure we hike high and sleep low. Nangkarsang peak is right on the nose of Dingboche valley; we start early in the morning to climb the hill ridge. Dingboche is deep in the mountain valley and you don’t see that much of the mountains from the village, but when you start walking higher up you will see more mountains and get closer to them. To the North you will see a glacial lake called Chola Lake; and three eight thousand meter high peaks; Lhotse, Lhotse Shaar and Makalu at the far end. Overnight at the same tea house we stayed last night.
Day 9 : Trek To Lobuche (4930M/16170Ft) Making Everest More Near But We Don't See Everest. (Still View Of Mt. Nuptse Is Nice)
Location: Lobuche
Today’s hike is tough in comparison to other days as you will walk above tree line with less oxygen. It is 5 hours hike today but everybody will walk in slower pace and make sure they feel good. Go slow, save your energy to get to the base camp. Today we pass through bunch of memorials of the people who died on Everest expedition. The memorial place is right after a small village called Thukla. From Thukla you will walk straight uphill for 200 meters, walk around and find memorials of Rob Hall, Scott Fisher, BabuChiri Sherpa and many other climbers.

Location: Kala Patthar
Lobuche to Ghorakshep is just 3 hours hike but today is long as we are also doing a hill top hike up to Kalapatthar at 5545meters. Walking to Ghorakshep is walking through and by the side of the world’s longest glacier “Khumbu Glacier”. Today’s scenery is unbelievably nice, although many trekkers are starting to feel the effects of the high altitude. To hear people coughing is common; so make sure you stay warm and hydrated. Your guide is making sure you are alright. Overnight at Teahouse at Ghorakshep
Day 11 : Trek To Everest Base Camp [5364M/17594Ft], And Get Back To Gorak Shep.
Location: Everest Base Camp
Todays is the day of achievement for Everest Base Camp Trek: you will go to the base camp! It takes about 3 hours to hike to the base camp and 2 hours to come back to Ghorakeshep. Todays hike is on the side of Khumbu Glacier so you will be walking on the top of big boulders most of the time. Once you get back to Ghorakshep, celebrate your achievement and relax tonight at Ghorakshep.
Day 12 : Trek Back To Pangboche [4000M/13120Ft]
Location: Pangboche
We start descending today, which is a lot easier and you will see the scenery from another perspective. Walking down, make sure you have tightened your shoes properly to avoid blisters. Pangboche is the last original village in this region. The village we stay in will be lower Pangboche, there is also upper Pangboche like 30 minutes away from this village. Small Sherpa settlement with stone fenced farming land is beautiful in contrast with surrounding mountains. Overnight treat yourself at local tea house in Pangboche.
