Trip Detail.

"Everest Base Camp" is a term that is used to describe two base camps, each on opposite sides of Mount Everest.South Base Camp is in Nepal at an altitude of 5,364 metres , and North Base Camp is in Tibet at 5,150 metre. The Everest Base Camp trek on the south side is one of the most popular trekking routes in the Himalayas and is visited by thousands of trekkers each year. The Everest Base Camp trek is the classic Himalayan trek taking you to the foot of the earth’s highest point and nearby magnificent mountain peaks, where warm Sherpa hospitality awaits the adventurer.Everest’s daunting summit soars so high that trekking to its base camp (17,590') is still an adventure of the highest sort. Join us for a 14-day Himalayan trek to Everest’s Southern Face Base Camp through some of the world’s most spectacular mountain scenery. Spend two days discovering the historic treasures of Kathmandu. Stay in villages set against soaring, jagged pinnacles; get to know the unique culture of the Sherpas; and walk trails lined with mani stones, engraved with Tibetan Buddhist prayers.
