Travel Map

Day 1: Arrive Kathmandu

Upon arrival in Kathmandu, you are met and transferred to Dwarika's Hotel.

As the largest city in the country, Kathmandu feels like another developing-world city rushing into a modern era of concrete and traffic pollution. Take a walk in the backstreets, howeve...

Day 2: Fly To Lukla (2,800 M) And Trek To Phakding (2,610 M)

After breakfast, we are escorted to the domestic terminal of Kathmandu airport for an early morning flight to Lukla, where our trek begins.

After an adventurous 40-minute flight above the breathtaking green and white mountains, we reach the Tenzing-Hillary Airp...

Day 3: Trek To Namche Bazaar (3,446 M)

Today we trek to Namche Bazaar.

We are on the trail for upward of 5-6 hours with an elevation gain of just over 800 metres. It is a beautiful yet somewhat demanding day and given the increase in altitude, it is important that we take it easy and stay hydrated.

Upon arrival in Namche Bazaar, we check into the Yeti Mountain Home Namche, where we stay for two nights.

Day 4: Khunde Loop

Today we acclimatise with a morning walk on the Khunde Loop via the Everest View Hotel. Situated at 3,880 m it is the highest located hotel in the world and commands a spectacular view of Mt. Everest.

In addition to Everest, the hotel offers views of many other...

Day 5: Trek To Deboche (3,710 M)

Today we will pass through the village of Tengboche (3,865 m) on our way to Deboche (3,710 m). We will spend roughly 5-6 hours on the trail. Tengboche is the cultural and religious centre of the Khumbu, from where the views are spectacular – the jagged peaks of Thamse...

Day 6: Pheriche (4,240 M)

Again today we spend roughly another 5-6 hours on the trail through to Pheriche (4,240 m). Pheriche is famous for its high altitude research centre where world-renowned physicians acquire data to analyse the effects of high altitude on human physiology. With an altitu...

Day 8: Trek To Lobuche (4,910 M)

This morning we set off on the 4-5 hour trek to Lobuche. Situated on the flank of an old lateral moraine of the Khumbu Glacier, as the trail winds through the high tundra and glacial moraine to reach Gorak Shep (5,158 m), Lobuche is the last inhabited area before Ever...

Day 9: Trek To Gorak Shep (5,140 M)

The trail today leads us further up the Khumbu Glacier. It will take us roughly 3-3.5 hours to reach Gorak Shep. As we ascend higher, the environment becomes ever starker. That said, the scenery is strikingly beautiful.

As we near Gorak Shep, we will find snow-...

Day 10: Climb Kala Patthar (5,550 M) & On To Everest Base Camp (5,364 M)

Today is the climax of our trip, as we climb Kala Patthar and head on to Base Camp. The ascent to Kala Patthar will take roughly 1.5-2 hours. From the top a stunning Himalayan panorama unfolds; this is truly one of the most majestic views in Nepal.

Whilst we ar...

DAY 11: Kathmandu

Today, we helicopter back to Kathmandu. We check-in to Dwarika's Hotel and the rest of the afternoon is at leisure. This evening we will enjoy a farewell dinner and no doubt recount the many stories from our adventure.

DAY 12: Depart Nepal

Today we bid farewell to Nepal. After a leisurely morning, we are transferred to the airport where we check-in for our onward flights home.
