An unforgettable expedition into the most mountainous corner of the world, the Nepalese Himalayas. Everest has traditionally been the ultimate goal for mountaineers and on this challenging expedition, we head towards the Everest base camp. Explore the mountains and valleys around the towering peak, while learning about the traditions and cultures of the famous Sherpa, also spending time in exotic Kathmandu.
An excellent launching point for the adventure ahead, vibrant and eclectic Kathmandu is rich in artistic and cultural heritage and full of fascinating sights. Early arrivals should stroll to Durbar Square, a great place to watch the world go by and home to the Kumari Devi - considered a living goddess.
Experience the adventure of a lifetime, trekking to Everest Base Camp. Surrounded by the world's most remote and breathtaking scenery, rest overnight in local teahouses and explore the diversity of Himalayan traditions and religion. Follow remote mountain paths, cross glaciers, traverse valleys and climb high passes to ascend to the foot of Mt Everest, acclimatising to high altitudes on the way. From Gorakshep, make a tough walk to Kala Pattar at 5,545 m for exceptional views of Everest, Lhotse and the other jagged peaks of this awe-inspiring region. Take it easy on the descent, calling in at Tengboche Monastery and the Sherpa Heritage Foundation, and farewell the mountain upon leaving its slopes.
The return flight from Lukla to the capital is short and rewarding, with great views back across the Himalayan slopes. Soak up more of Kathmandu's atmosphere with a spot of shopping among the network of street markets. Alternatively, take a trip over the Bagmati River to the adjacent city of Patan, a maze of temples and monasteries.
