An unforgettable adventure visiting Everest Base Camp
Visiting Everest Base Camp for the first time is an unforgettable adventure, especially if you are new to trekking. The journey takes you deep into the heart of the Himalayas. Where every day brings new landscapes, new challenges and new rewards. For an inexperienced trekker, the Everest Base Camp route can feel demanding, with steep climbs, long walking hours, and high altitude. That’s why joining a professionally guided 12-day excursion is the safest and most enjoyable way to experience this iconic trek. You travel with someone who understands the terrain, the weather, the altitude, and how to keep you safe while helping you make the most of the journey.
Your adventure begins with a scenic flight from Kathmandu to Lukla. One of the world’s most thrilling airports. From here, the trek officially starts.

The itinerary is designed to help your body adjust safely, with two acclimatisation days included in Namche Bazaar and Dingboche.
