A little about Everest Base Camp
Everest Base Camp is the logistical campsite used for the climbing expedition to Mount Everest that occurs every year in Nepal. It opens the route to Everest via Khumbu Icefall and several advanced high-altitude camps of the summit.
It is also a final destination for the hikers who only like to see Everest very closely and ascend the Kala Patthar.
It is located in the vast territory of Sagarmatha National Park in the Khumbu region of Nepal at an altitude of 5364 m and is known as the south base camp beneath the south face of Everest.
There is also another Everest base camp in Tibet at 5150 m altitude that lies at the base of the Rongbuk Glacier. In comparison, the Everest Base Camp in Nepal is a popular destination because of its authentic trekking experience, natural wonders, and cultural encounters, making it suitable for both new and experienced hikers.
As of now, many celebrities (national and international) have already stepped into the Everest Base Camp, including ManishaKoirala, David Beckham, Mandy Moore, Facundo Arana, Bear Grylls, Martina Navratilova, and Josh Gates.
How does our Luxury Everest Base Camp trek begin?
Our luxury Everest Base Camp trek will begin with an adventurous mountain flight to Lukla, after which your trekking trail will wind through the beautiful old caravan trail of the Sagarmatha National Park of the Khumbu Valley.
You will walk through deep, dense forests, stunning villages of the DudhKoshi and Imja River Valleys, and sleep in traditional Sherpa villages. Thus, you will have a chance to meet the Sherpa tribe, who originally came to Nepal from Tibet and still follow the age-old Tibetan Buddhist customs.
Before reaching the Everest Base Camp, you will sleep two extra nights at Namche Bazaar and Dingboche, where you will engage in peaceful acclimating climbs to Everest View Hotel, and Khumjung in Namche, and the almost 5100 m tall Nagarjun Peak in Dingboche.
You will ascend to the 5364-tall Everest Base Camp, where you confront the formidable height of the Khumbu Icefall. However, our luxury Everest Base Camp trek doesn’t end here.
Your next destination is Kala Patthar at 5644 m that offers you the bewitching views of Everest (8,848.86 m), Lhotse (8516 m), Cho Oyu (8188 m), Pumori (7161 m), AmaDablam (6812 m), Khumbila (5761 m), Thamserku (6608 m), Kangtenga (6782 m), Nuptse (7861 m), Changtse (7543 m), Khumbutse (6639 m), and many more.
The next stage of our luxury Everest Base Camp trek will then retrace along a circular path back to Kathmandu via Lukla.

Luxury Everest Base Camp Trek Related Information
Best Season
There are two best seasons for the luxury Everest Base Camp trek: spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). In spring, daytime heat can reach up to 20 to 25 degrees Celsius, with the trail beautifully decorated by the blooming rhododendrons.
At EBC, you will be able to admire a colorful tent city that you often see in postcards. In autumn, EBC will not be as bustling as in spring, but in terms of weather, air clarity, and temperature, it is the best season for the luxury Everest Base Camp trek.
In summer (June to August), the monsoon arrives in the Himalayas, and in its absence, the days will be intensely hot with high humidity. In Winter (December to February), the trail to EBC will have massive snow, low temperatures, and limited accommodations.
Difficulty Grade
Our luxury Everest Base Camp trek, although comfortable, is by no means an easy feat. In fact, it is a level II medium mountain hike that lasts 14 days, with the requirement of determination and patience.
Along the route, you will have to overcome many moderate passes, cross numerous high steel bridges, and tackle many sharp, steep climbs. However, no past hiking background or technical skill is needed for our luxury Everest Base Camp trek 14 days trip.
Still, to endure the long hours of daily treks, you will need to have good physical health, fitness, and preparation.
One of the challenges of the luxury Everest Base Camp trek is the high altitude and the length of the trail (130 km in total). Thus, it is not suitable for those with respiratory and heart conditions.
Altitude Sickness/AMS/Acute Mountain Sickness and Acclimatization
The high altitudes of the mountain trekking, such as our luxury Everest Base Camp trek does carry some risk of AMS. To eliminate its threat, proper acclimatization is essential, for which we have placed rest days in Namche and Dingboche, followed by gradual ascents.
Still, mild symptoms of AMS may occur in some of the hikers, which include headaches, trouble sleeping, nausea, fatigue, and dizziness. In such a case, you must slow down and let your body get used to the new altitude.
The best way to avoid AMS is to drink plenty of electrolyte-rich fluid, climb slowly, and take enough rest. Our guide will supervise your physical well-being, and if you have any of these symptoms, he will quickly transfer you down to a safer altitude.
Diamox is also helpful if you like a symptomatic treatment of AMS and have a quick acclimatization to high elevations.
How to prepare for long hikes of the Luxury Everest Base Camp Trek?
For the lengthy hike involved in the luxury Everest Base Camp trek, your legs and back should be strong, and your heart should also be in good health.
Engaging in activities like walking, running, cycling, swimming, yoga, or playing sports will help you gain the necessary strength. Practice these activities three times a week, one month before your travel date.
You should also prepare yourself to carry a light backpack on a regular basis by weight lifting or carrying your shopping bags and then walking instead of driving.
You can then engage in a long or short hike as your preparatory trek before the actual luxury Everest Base Camp trek. Wear your hiking boots, and break them in while walking on the forest or mountain trail.
Charging, Communication, and Internet
All the premium lodges included in our luxury Everest Base Camp trek will have a constant electricity supply through either government power or solar energy.
Each room will also have a personal electric outlet, so you can charge all your electronic devices easily. In Lobuche and Gorakshep, however, you will need to charge your devices at the shared facility in the common dining room, where you will have to pay a small fee per device on an hourly basis.
For mobile communication, Namaste/NTC will offer better signal strength along the Everest route. You will also have easy access to the hotel and lodge WiFi.
However, in Lobuche and Gorakshep, the lodge WiFi may not be very dependable, so if needed, you can either use the 4G data internet from NTC or purchase a 10 GB prepaid WiFi card from AirLink or Everest Link.
