We offer expert-led, safe itineraries that will provide you with a memorable Himalayan trekking adventure down to the foot of Mount Everest.
The standard Everest Base Camp trek begins with the historic flight to Lukla (or Ramechhap), the Khumbu's entryway. Following a world-class Everest Base Camp trek itinerary, you will ascend to 5,364 meters via key sites like as the colorful Namche Bazaar, the historic Tengboche Monastery, and the famed Hillary Suspension Bridge. To assure trekker safety and proper altitude adaptation, our 2026/2027 programs highlight expert-led acclimatization days in Namche and Dingboche before the final pre-sunrise hike to Kala Patthar (5,545m), which offers the best panoramic views of Mount Everest.
We provide a variety of Everest Base Camp trekking programs (usually 12-14 days) intended for all ability levels, along with expert guides and a thorough Everest Base Camp route map for easy navigation. The difficulty of the Everest Base Camp hike is moderate, but with appropriate planning, it is highly possible. The entire cost of an Everest journey varies depending on the package chosen, with the optimum times to visit Everest Base Camp being in the spring (March-May) and autumn. These periods are characterised by calm weather, clear skies, and favourable conditions.
Adventurers seeking extended adventures beyond EBC, the Everest region provides good alternatives. Explore the high-altitude Gokyo Lakes Trek, tackle the challenging Three Passes Trek, or browse all of our Everest region treks. These strenuous experiences can be paired with the conventional EBC trek to provide a fully immersed and thorough Himalayan experience.
The EBC trek entails more than just reaching base camp; it is an immersive experience in Nepal's legendary adventure tourism. This full adventure includes visits to traditional Sherpa villages, discovery of historic Himalayan monasteries, and expertly guided high-altitude route climbing. The trek concludes with stunning panoramic views from Kala Patthar and standing at the historic foot of Mount Everest.

Sophia Martinez – USA
“The Everest Base Camp trek was an experience of a lifetime! And a knowledgeable guide like Sam was a definite plus. We learned so much about the Nepali culture. He took extra time to answer our questions and explain customs of the wonderful local people. All details were well worked out and logistics went smoothly. Sam was kind and gentle but also made the call when needed to get a horse for me to finish the last leg of the journey.”
★★★★★
Lorain – USA
“Sam is possibly the best trekking guide in Nepal if not the world. Guide, porter, medic, comidian, singer he does it all! Sam is very friendly and so easy to talk too. I found it very easy to bring up any issues I had (not that I had many) which helped to make the trekking experience the best it could possibly be. Sam is very knowledgeable about the mountains and the local culture and thought us so much. Sam also chooses the best local porters. Very friendly and very helpful. Couldn't have asked for any better. I couldn't recommend above and beyond trekking more highly”
