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. People have been drawn to the region because of the beautiful scenery and adventurous trekking and hiking trails.

The national park is home to several endangered animals and birds as well! With our 14 days Everest base camp luxury trek package, you can stay in luxurious hotels within the national park. Isn't that wonderful? You can now accomplish the EBC trek in luxury, sleeping in comfortable beds and eating whatever food you like. The luxury chain hotels right there on the lap of Everest will be a comfort in your solace.

Kala Patthar and the new face of the Everest

Are you aware that we can't see the full face of Mt. Everest from its base camp? But don't worry; a short trek from Gorakshep will lead you to Kala Patthar, a rocky ridge that serves as an excellent viewpoint for Everest.

The sweeping panoramic image of Everest and Ama Dablam from the top of this rock is one of the most stunning mountain views in the world. In addition, the sunrise vista of Everest peaks as the light rays touch the summit during sunrise is spectacular!

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. From bakeries to temples to museums, the Namche bazaar's narrow lane, shared by yaks, monks, Sherpa traders, and locals, offers something different around every corner.

You may take brief hikes through Namche Bazaar, shop for unique mountainside Tibetan goods, or even buy trekking equipment while you're there. You can spend your time watching local business people or Sherpa people go about their everyday life and even interact with them, even if you don't wish to shop.

Everest Base Camp, the ultimate destination

The main purpose of the journey is to reach Everest Base Camp. The base camp is enlivened by colorful tents and stories of adventure and passion told by mountaineers aiming to reach the pinnacle of the world.

After trekking for days to reach Everest Base Camp, why would you turn around and leave in a matter of hours? Spend time at Everest Base Camp and sense what an Everest Expedition is like. Without question, the time spent in Everest base camp is the most inspiring in the overall adventure!

However, you can't stay the night at the Base Camp. Because the base camp does not have any teahouses, you must return back and stay in Gorakshep when visiting the base camp.

Everest Base Camp Luxury Lodge Trek Brief Itinerary

Including your arrival and departure days to and from Nepal, Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek takes 14 days in total to complete. The trek then starts by following the classic EBC trail to Phakding first and then to Namche the next day. In Namche Bazaar, you get a rest day to adjust to the increasing altitude and acclimate. The trek to Everest Base Camp continues through Tengboche, Dingboche, Lobuche, Gorekshep, and Pheriche with another acclimatization day at Dingboche. From Gorekshep, you trek to Everest Base Camp and then return to Gorekshep, and keep contineu to Lukla, and flight to Kathmandu or Ramechhap.

The next morning, you hike to the Kala Patthar viewpoint. The sunrise over Everest and the surrounding mountain peaks look mesmerizing! You hike back to Gorekshep for a catered meal. The luxury Everest trip is available all year, so hurry up and book your date. Also, if the stated itinerary does not fit your convenience, we will be pleased to tailor-make the trek for you.

Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek Cost

The standard cost of a Everest base camp luxury trek package for a group of 8 persons is around US$ 2097. Similarly, the package costs US$ 2225 for a party of 2 - 3 people. If you are a solo trekker, it might be a bit on the higher end, with a total cost of US$ 2995. The Everest base camp luxury trek package can be adjusted to suit your needs. However, depending on your changes to the schedule and services, the overall package price may increase or decrease!

If you wish to upgrade the trip for the most luxurious experience, we can help you with that. This would, however, raise the package's budget. Similarly, you can request a helicopter flight from Gorakshep to Lukla or Kathmandu as well, and then board a regular Lukla flight to Kathmandu instead of a heli ride from Gorekshep to Kathmandu. This would lower the overall cost of your package. If you have any other ideas, please share them with us so we can adjust your itinerary. We want you to know that we will make every effort to ensure you the trip of your lifetime.

Today is the first acclimatization day in this 14 days luxury EBC trek. Namche Bazaar, situated at an elevation of 3,440 meters, is perfect for acclimatization not only because of its altitude but also because of its lively ambiance. You'll be surprised to see the modernization in Namche. This tiny Himalayan town is well-equipped with nice hotels, cafes, restaurants, bars, ATMs, trekking and mountaineering gear stores, and so on. You'll also get to observe local Sherpa life in Namche. 

For better acclimatization, you can take a short hike up to the Everest View Hotel or Khumjung Village. Both locations offer spectacular sceneries of snow-capped mountains. On your return to Namche Bazaar, you'll stop at the Everest Photo Gallery and the Sherpa Culture Museum to observe the spectacular images of the Everest region and learn more about the ancient culture of the Sherpa people.

The place is named after the oldest and biggest monastery in the Everest region, Tengboche Monastery. You can visit the monastery and learn about the Buddhist culture and religion.

The hike takes you to Imja Khola, a small river that you'll cross using the suspension bridge. You'll trek past a long Mani wall to reach Pangboche. The trail continues through summer pastures to Dingboche, where you stay for the night.

Day 7 marks another day of acclimatization. Dingboche, at the height of 4410 meters, is just the right altitude for 2nd acclimatization day. Dingboche, also known as the Summer Valley of the Khumbu region, offers stunning views of the snow-capped peaks such as Ama Dablam, as well as the Lhotse and Nuptse ridges. Rest days, however, should include a short hike in the surrounding areas for better acclimatization. You can explore the village and go for a short nearby walk to get the most out of the rest day.

Today is the day you've been waiting for all along. You'll step your foot on the base of the mighty Everest today. The hike begins early morning from Lobuche. It's going to be a difficult hiking day as compared to the previous days due to the higher altitude and a challenging trail through the rugged moraine and a glacier route. You first reach Gorekshep, which is the last habitable place on the EBC trail, and then finally arrive at your ultimate destination, Everest Base Camp.  Take in the grandeur of the mountains, all covered with snow, from the base camp.

Unfortunately, you'll have to return back to Gorekshep to sleep, so enjoy the achievement all you can. Click pictures, make videos, and take every moment to enjoy yourself. It's not every day you get so close to the world's highest mountain peak.

While some parts of the trails are relatively straightforward, there are some portions where you need to be careful. After a couple of hours, you should arrive in Lobuche, where we will catch a quick break and have lunch. As you move forward, you will arrive at the village of Thukla before crossing a wooden bridge and heading towards Pheriche.

Today is the longest day of trekking, and we recommend you get an early start. After breakfast, you will depart Pheriche to begin your journey and make your way through small village settlements. You will gradually lose elevation throughout the hike today as you descend downhill. After walking for 5 km, you will arrive at Pangboche, where you will enjoy a well-deserved rest.

After checking out from the tea house, it is time to hit the trail again. You will walk down stone steps from Namche Bazaar and follow the trail towards Lukla. From here, the path will head downward and lead you to a suspension bridge. You will then hike alongside the river and descend through the terrains at a gradual pace. Eventually, you will arrive at Phakding, going through dense forest. The path ahead will be simple, but you must deal with numerous incline and decline sections. You will pass small villages before you finally arrive at the outskirts of Lukla.

Although Everest Base Camp is the trek's intended destination, that is not the highest point we reach. The maximum altitude of this luxury trek to Everest Base Camp is Kala Patthar, which is located at a height of 5545 meters above sea level. We hike from Gorekshep to Kala Patthar the following morning after visiting the EBC in order to catch a beautiful sunrise vista of Mount Everest and its surroundings. In contrast to the base camp, Mount Everest can be seen in its entirety from Kala Patthar.

Trek Difficulty

The standard EBC trek can be moderately difficult. However, our 14 days luxury Everest Base Camp itinerary in the Everest region makes it easier. You skip the entire return hike from Gorekshep to Lukla, making it easier for your knees. With the luxury trek, you also get comfortable beds to sleep in, letting you rest and recover well at night.

This trek might be more challenging for first-timers, particularly on the rugged Himalayan trail. Keep in mind that you have to walk for 5 to 7 hours every day on average. The path is steep and difficult, with multiple ups and downs, and the increasing altitude makes walking even harder. So, make sure that you're in good health and shape before beginning the trek.

But don't you worry about the trek's difficulty ruining your experience? There would be trekking guides available to assist you at all times. If there are no challenges to overcome, is it really worthwhile to embark on a trek? Your journey will be even more memorable if you successfully overcome a challenge. We've seen people of various ages, sizes, and forms complete the journey while smiling!

Transportation

we use a commercial, domestic flight in Dorniers and Twin Otters to get the Lukla from Kathmandu or Ramechhap and If are you interested to fly on a helicopter from Gorekshep to Kathmandu or Lukla on your return, you may have to pay additional cost. So, there's no need to worry about frequent flight delays and cancellations. In Kathmandu, all your airport transports are carried out in a private vehicle.

Accommodation in the EBC Luxury Trekking

Unlike regular EBC trekking packages where one would have to spend the nights in simple teahouses, mountain lodges, or guest houses, our luxury trekking package offers high-quality hotels and lodges even while hiking in the Everest region, other than a few places like Dingboche and Gorekshep, where there's no availability of such high-end facilities. However, we'd book the best luxury available accommodation, even in such places. You'd get spacious rooms with comfortable beds and attached bathrooms. Don't worry about having to squat to use the washroom as well; the rooms are equipped with western toilets for your convenience.

While you are in Kathmandu, we will accommodate you in a 4-star hotel that offers breakfast.

Meals While on the Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek

Being one of the most established trekking areas of Nepal, the Everest region offers a variety of food options. Hotels and lodges you'll be spending the nights at offer multiple cuisines with detailed menus. We carefully choose the greatest eateries, making sure that the food is wholesome, delicious, and nutritious. We promote eating local foods and specialties since they are far more hygienic than frozen foods and meat products that must be transported to the trails over long distances.

Your body will need a lot of carbohydrates and proteins because we'll be trekking at high altitudes around the tallest mountains in the world. Hence, we suggest Daal Bhat, a Nepalese cuisine that provides your body with enough protein and carbohydrates. You'll get plenty of protein from the lentil, bean, and pulse soup, and rice's carbohydrates will give you energy. Additionally served will be seasonal vegetables, which will give your body additional nutrients. However, you can switch between Nepalese and other cuisines.

We strongly advise drinking liquids to combat altitude sickness at high altitudes, such as green tea, lemon tea, hot lemon, ginger, and garlic soup. We strongly encourage you to stay away from dairy and cheese products, as well as alcoholic and caffeinated beverages, as these are not recommended for high-altitude treks.

Drinking Water on the EBC Luxury Trek

We firmly believe in eco-tourism and strongly advise all of our visitors to travel responsibly. Instead of paying for throwaway bottled water at the tea shops, bring a bottle and fill it with hot water at the place you stayed or at the tea shops on the way. For the same price as bottled water, you'll get hot water. In order to make your water safer to drink, you may also add some filtering pills.

Carrying a bottle with built-in filtration so you can fill it up with fresh water along the way is the best option. You can also get hydration bladders to make it easier to drink water as you hike for frequent hydration.

Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek Guides and Potters

Trekking in Nepal, except for the Everest region, requires a mandatory trekking guide for the traveler's safety. Although a trekking guide isn't compulsory for your luxury EBC trek, trekking with a guide makes all the difference. They are well-trained to lead the trek in the right direction, inform you about the places you visit along the way, and respond adequately during emergencies. Outfitter Nepal offers knowledgeable native guides who are informed about the topography, traditions, and weather patterns of the region for your Everest luxury trek. The guide's pay is included in the price of our package. However, tips are expected.

We also assign physically fit local potters to carry your essentials. Hiring potters is still advised even if you're an experienced hiker because of the difficult trekking track in the Himalayas' high elevations. The package cost includes the potters' wage as well, excluding the tips.

Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek Permits

To begin this Everest Base Camp adventure, you need two permits from the proper authorities. In the Everest region, decentralization has led to the requirement for a new permission system. Consequently, having a Trekker Information Management System (TIMS) Card is no longer necessary. We take care of the permits, including the cost, so you don't have to go through any hassle of issuing them.

To enter the Everest region, you need the following two permits:

  • Sagarmatha National Park Entry Permit for NPR 3000 (issuable in Monjo or Kathmandu)
  • Khumbu Pasang Lhamu Rural Municipality Entrance Permit for NPR 2000 (available only in Lukla)
FAQs
Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek - 14 Days frequently asked questions

The trek can be completed at any time of year. However, the best months are March to May (spring) and September to November (autumn/fall). Spring and autumn are great seasons to travel because it isn't too hot or too chilly. As the sky during these times is clear, trekkers ascending the base camp have better visibility.

Trekkers have a high appreciation for the winter season in this situation, as the entire region is buried with snow, not because the weather is overcast. Even though it's colder at higher elevations, the trails aren't as slick as they are during Monsoon season. In the winter, Everest has a lot more to offer, such as wildlife and flora. On the other side, fog and mist can hinder views of the mountains and valleys.

With that being said, you can do your luxury EBC trek any time of the year with experienced guides and porters from a reputable trekking company.

Cardio workouts such as walking, jogging, swimming, and cycling help your body learn to perform better with less oxygen. When trekking at a high altitude, this will allow you to keep your breath and concentrate, allowing you to enjoy the adventure much more. When you're tired and want to quit, remember why you're doing it and gradually increase the difficulty and duration of your workouts.

Hiking is the most effective way to prepare for your trek to base camp. Find some nearby trails, take a walk through town, or just take a walk. Get used to taking long walks. Find out where your body has trouble and how far you can push it. You'll be surprised at how far you can go once you've gotten used to pushing through the first wave of pain.

While trekking in the Everest region, electricity is readily available. The lower parts are powered by hydroelectricity, and the upper parts are powered by solar energy. You can charge your electronics at the hotel you stay or at any tea house on the way for an extra $1–$2 per device. Some hotels have charging points in the rooms, while others offer communal outlets in the dining area or close to the front desk for charging electronics. We advise getting power banks for the best use.

The major cities of Namche and Lukla have Wi-Fi. However, it may cost $1 to $2. To access internet services in all significant areas of the Everest region, you can get an Everest Link prepaid internet card. Each of the guesthouses sells it and lets guests use it.

If you purchase a mobile phone SIM card in Kathmandu, you will occasionally receive a 4G service in Namche and a 3G service in Tengboche. Prepaid SIM cards from NCell or NTC are inexpensive and will give you service up to a certain point. At greater altitudes, phone networks are inaccessible. As a result, people depend on Everest Link's Internet services.

The only ATM on the entire trek is in Namche Bazaar. The ATMs in Namche, however, are unreliable because they frequently stop working due to power failures or simply running out of money. The ATMs also feature a 500 rupee ($5) withdrawal fee and a 10,000 rupee ($100) maximum withdrawal limit. The bottom line is that since it is the only form of payment recognized in the area, you should bring cash in Nepalese rupees from Kathmandu.

Because there isn't enough oxygen at elevations of 3000 meters or more, the human body isn't built to thrive there. You should be aware of how your body responds to being at a high altitude as you ascend. Some of the symptoms of altitude sickness include headaches, a loss of appetite, trouble sleeping, blurry vision, nausea, difficulty breathing, a fast heart rate, and weariness. It's recommended to take the day off if the symptoms persist. Additionally, you ought to drop to a lower altitude if the situation gets worse. Acclimatization is important for preventing AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness), as is eating right and staying hydrated at all times.

Because the EBC trek is an adventurous journey in the high Himalayas with inherent risks, travel insurance is required. In the event of an accident or illness, such as acute mountain sickness, a helicopter is the only way to get you back to Kathmandu or adjacent cities. Therefore, it would be wise to have emergency evacuation covered by travel insurance.

Yes, the only form of payment accepted on the route is cash in Nepalese rupees. Although the package includes three meals and lodging, you might need some extra cash to pay for snacks or beverages while trekking. Prior to departing, be sure to bring some currency from Kathmandu.

You can definitely go on the hike with your family and kids. Children are just as susceptible to altitude sickness as adults are. No evidence suggests that kids are more prone to altitude sickness. If your children are physically and psychologically competent in an altitude trek, go with them. They should be able to walk at a high altitude for 5-7 hours daily. It is better to bring children over the age of 13. However, even younger children are allowed to try the hike.

Nepal is a peaceful nation. Tourists are treated like family by the welcoming people of Nepal. Female tourists may trek to the Everest Base Camp securely, whether they are traveling in a group or on their own. We go above and beyond to make sure that our female trekkers have a safe and enjoyable experience.

Excellent Experience

NG and Raj set up an excellent trip for me. Then they paired me with a guide who went above and beyond my expectations, Kapil. The trip was a life changing experience. Outfitters is very conscientious relative to your comfort, saftey and enjoyment of your trip. I tested this even further once I got to Gorekshep where I succumbed to altitude sickness. Once the decision was made that I needed to get back to Kathmandu, they pulled out the stops...
