A challenging trek that takes you from lush valleys where the water roars right to the base of Mt Everest and the creaking Khumbu Glacier. Along the journey, you stay in Sherpa villages and learn all about these people and their fascinating Tibetan Buddhist culture. Schedule a call with our team to find out more.
Detailed Itinerary
Day 14: Trek to Namche Bazaar (6-7 hr)
Our hike down to Namche Bazaar (3,440 m) takes us along a very pretty part of the Everest Base Camp route, and we pass through a handful picturesque mountainside villages like Dole along the way. We should reach Namche in good time, so you might decide to visit any of the sites we weren’t able to fit in on the outgoing trek.
Day 15: Trek to Lukla (5 hr)
We're on familiar turf with today's trek, hiking the same route as Days 1 and 2 in reverse. Having built up you trekking muscles over so many days, as well as descending into more oxygen-rich air, you might feel like you have the strength of a star athlete today. We overnight in Lukla (2,860 m), ready for our Kathmandu flight tomorrow.
Day 16: Fly to Ramechhap
Today we say goodbye to Khumbu and fly to Ramechhap, then drive to Kathmandu. While it's a sad day in many ways, our hotel in Kathmandu is ready to comfort us with hot baths and plush towels. At dinner tonight we'll relive the adventures of the past two weeks. Those with the energy can explore Thamel a bit, perhaps taking a tuk-tuk ride around the district.
Day 17: Explore Kathmandu
Today you're at leisure to explore Kathmandu on your own or join our exciting city tour! Please note that the main reason for this sightseeing day is that you need a buffer day before flying out of Nepal in case you're delayed in the Everest region. It's really not unusual for flights out of Lukla to be postponed for hours or even a day due to bad weather. Remember that Lukla Airport is one of the trickiest airports in the world for pilots! So you 100% need this extra day before your departure just to be safe.
Day 18: Departure day
It's time to part ways today, and we drive you to Tribhuvan Airport for your flights home. But there's no forgetting the adventure we shared – such memories never fade!
