As you travel through Sherpa villages and take in the awe-inspiring views, you will want to come back again and again.

The trek, from Lukla Airport to Everest Base Camp is one heck of a challenge but more than achievable with the right physical and mental preparation. This trip provides some EPIC views of some the tallest peaks in the world, including Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Makalu and Cho Oyu. Not only this but experience the unique culture, traditions, rituals and lifestyle of the Sherpa people first hand whilst following in famous mountaineering footsteps.
A great trekking route, offering plenty of accommodation facilities with the special Sherpa hospitality making you feel well looked after. This trek is a serious and difficult challenge and upon reaching the end goal of Everest Base camp, it will be an emotional and satisfying experience. Take it all in and savour the moment. All of this makes the Everest Base Camp trek the next thing to tick off your list.
