In General, Everest is mistakenly regarded as the ultimate trekking destination: a place that must be visited at the end of life, that puts an end to the cycle of adventure cravings, or something as liberation from the world of adventure. But it is a false idea that started of nowhere, without a rational ground, and ended up being the most popular marketing quote.
In fact, trekking on Everest is a beginner’s adventure. It is the journey of life that teaches us to be patient and hard-working, which is required in every single phase of our entity. You will pass by the cascading waterfalls, thunderous rivers, soul-piercing glaciers, dramatic animation of the mountains, pristine and icy blue glacial lakes, bizarrely narrow stone stairs, quaint farmhouses, and intoxicating monasteries to finally step into the unparalleled base camp of the Mt. Everest, under the roof of the world.
Plus, trekking on Everest is the art of defeating one’s own fear and standing on top of our goals and aspirations. You will battle with the icy winds, jagged trails, low oxygen and rigorously pressurizing altitude to finally arrive at the destination. How can a traveler implement these inspirations into something noteworthy in his life if he is trekking in the Everest during the end of his life’s adventure?
Therefore, try the Everest Base Camp Trek as a beginner and gain something noteworthy in your life.
With this package, you can explore Everest in a short time: safely and adequately.

(2,610m to 3,440m)
To help your body adjust to the higher altitude, today is an acclimatization day. You’ll take a short hike to the Everest View Hotel, which offers a stunning panorama of Everest and surrounding peaks. This hike takes about 2-3 hours and helps with altitude adaptation. After the hike, you can explore Namche’s markets, bakeries, and museums, immersing yourself in the Sherpa culture.
