Kathmandu: 3 star hotel, twin share

On Trek: Cozy teahouses with twin sharing rooms; attached bathrooms available in Lukla, Phakding and Namche; shared bathrooms in higher altitude villages.

Group Size: 8-16 adventurers, small bough to connect but big enough for camaraderie.

The trip starts and ends in Kathmandu (Tribhuvan International Airport)

• Arrival: We strongly recommend arriving at least one full day before the trip starts (Oct 14). International flights can be delayed, and arriving early gives you time to reset, adjust, and pick up any last minute trekking gear in Kathmandu. Extra nights at our Kathmandu hotel can be arranged for you.

• Departure: The trek ends back in Kathmandu on Oct 28, with final departure on Oct 29. However, flights to and from Lukla are highly weather-dependent and can be delayed or canceled. Because of this, we suggest adding 1-2 buffer days in Kathmandu after the trek before booking your international flight home. If all goes smoothly, you’ll have extra time to relax and explore Nepal! A win-win!

This schedule ensures you get the full experience without missing any activities.

When you arrive in Kathmandu, you’ll be given a duffle bag to use for the trek. Here’s how it works:

• Duffel Bag (10kg limit): This is the bag that porters will carry for you on the trek. You’ll pack all your trekking clothes and gear into it before leaving Kathmandu.

• Daypack (5kg limit): You’ll carry your own backpack (around 30-35L) each day with water, snacks, layers, camera, and personal essentials.

• Extra Luggage: You can absolutely travel to Nepal with a suitcase. Any extra belongings you don’t need on the trek can be safely stored at the hotel in Kathmandu until you return.

We will of course share a full packing list in preparation for this adventure.

This isn’t just a vacation, it’s an adventure. The Everest Base Camp trek is a bucket list journey, but it does come with challenges that make reaching Base Camp so rewarding.

Here’s what you can expect:

• 🏔️ Physical Challenge: We’ll be trekking for 10 days straight, averaging 4-7 hours of hiking per day on rocky, uneven trails. The altitude makes everything feel tougher, even if you’re fit!

• ❄️ Cold Weather: At higher elevations, daytime temperatures can drop close to freezing, and nights can get as cold as 14F (-10C). Warm layers are a must! Luckily, Oct is one of the best months weather wise for the trek.

• 🛖 Basic but Cozy Lodging: We’ll be staying in teahouses (local guesthouses). They’re charming and welcoming, but simple - think twin beds, limited electricity, and bathrooms that may be shared. Private bathrooms are only available in lower villages. Hot showers are available in some places for a small fee, but not guaranteed.

• 🌿 Simple Daily Life: Meals are hearty and yummy but basic. WiFi and charging may be available at times, but not everywhere. This is a chance to unplug and live simply.

• 💪🏽 Mental Stamina: The days are long and the altitude can be tough, but reaching Base Camp (and Kala Patthar for sunrise) makes everything feel tougher step worth it. The sense of accomplishment is unmatched.

If you’re looking for luxury, this isn’t the trip. But, if you’re craving a true adventure, breathtaking Mountain Views, cultural immersion, and a once in a lifetime sense of achievement, then this is 100% for you.

A $199 deposit is due to secure your spot. The rest can be split into monthly payments with the final payment due 90 days before the trip start date!

Yes, all travelers (except Indian nationals) need a tourist visa to enter Nepal. You can get this on arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu. It’s your responsibility to check visa requirements and what you need prior to travel, and we recommend doing so well ahead of time. Make sure your passport is valid for at least 6 months beyond your trip dates.

Vaccination needs can vary depending on your nationality, medical history, and recent travel. We strongly advise consulting a doctor or a travel clinic at least 6-8 weeks before departure for personalized guidance.

The EBC trek is a challenging, high altitude adventure, but with the right preparation it’s achievable for most people with good fitness.

Here’s how to get ready:

• Build your endurance: Aim for long hikes (5-6 hours) on hilly or uneven terrain, carrying a daypack with some weight.

• Strength Training: Focus on legs (squats, lunges, step-ups), core, and overall stamina.

• Cardio: running, cycling, swimming, or stair climbing will help train your body to perform with less oxygen.

• Practice with your gear: break in your hiking boots and get comfortable carrying your backpack before the trip.

• Altitude Mindset: no matter how fit you are, trekking at high elevations is tough. The key is pacing yourself, staying hydrated, and listening to your body.

We’ll also send you a detailed training guide once you’ve booked to help you feel confident and prepared.
