Mount Everest Epic Adventure Itinerary

Day 1:  
Welcome to Kathmandu! You will be met at Tribhuvan International Airport and transported to your hotel. Explore picturesque downtown Kathmandu.

Day 2:
Full day tour visiting temples, rivers, stupas and monasteries that reflect the Hindu and Buddhist cultures that thrive side-by-side in Kathmandu.

Days 3-15:
This is where the real adventure begins! You’ll fly to the mountain town of Lukla in the heart of the Khumbu region. From this point on, you’ll spend your nights in Nepalese tea houses, simple lodges run by the authentic “Sherpas” whose native civilization hails from eastern Nepal. These warm and welcoming Sherpa families provide rooms, meals, and a chance to share their traditional ways of life.
 
The next twelve days you'll traverse the route the Dalai Lama named “the steps to Heaven,” a place where the mountains take your breath away, arriving at Everest Base camp on day eleven of your trip. Along the route, explore charming villages, experience the reverence of Tibetan monasteries, navigate rhododendron and pine forests and, of-course, admire the beauty of the region’s snow-clad mountains. Your trip ends with a return to Kathmandu where you prepare to leave Nepal with your memories-of-a-lifetime in tow.

Day 16:
Leave Nepal with your unforgettable memories.
