Major Highlights of the Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek
Learning about the Sherpa people
Sherpas are, without a doubt, a well-known ethnic group. Be it their dedication to preserving an age-old culture or their contribution to mountaineering in Nepal, Sherpas are praiseworthy. Photographs of Sherpas taking clients to the summit of Mount Everest, one of the world's most perilous locations, have grabbed headlines.
Before the boom in adventure trekking, the Everest region was very distant. Like every mountain tribe, the Sherpas had perfected their ability to adapt to their isolation and hostile surroundings. They were farmers who subsisted on the trade from the Himalayan routes. Buddhism had a significant influence on their way of life, as seen by the innumerable chortens and gompas in the region. During your luxurious journey to the EBC, you can discover more about the Sherpa culture!
Luxury in the wilderness of Sagarmatha National Park
Sagarmatha National Park is bestowed with luscious vegetation, an array of biological diversity, and the beauty of the Himalayas. Since the 1960s, tourists have been pouring into the area.

Cultural hotspot of Namche Bazaar
Namche Bazaar is the cultural and commercial hub in the Sagarmatha Region. The Namche Bazaar is a vibrant jumble of homes, restaurants, hotels, shops, ATMs, and bakeries.
