Everest Base Camp Trek has everything that any adventure lover would go for. The trekking adventure, also poplar as EBC Trek, offers a picturesque view of the Himalayas with the dense forests covered by a blanket of Red Rhododendrons. It offers warm and caring Sherpa families, and an adventure of a lifetime. So, trekking to the Everest Base Camp is a combination of adventure and cultural experience.
The most common way to get into the Everest for the trek is to take a flight to Lukla either from Kathmandu or from Ramechhap. Most of the flights to Lukla during high trekking seaons go from Ramechhap airport which is about 4-5 hours drive from Kathmandu. If you have a longer holiday and want to trek longer in the region, you can drive to Salleri and start trekking to the base camp. Check this package here for the details.
During the Everest base camp trek, we walk through the same trail that was once stepped on by Tenzing Norgay Sherpa and Sir Edmund Hillary on their ascent to Mount Everest. Your sheer presence on the trail is an experience of a lifetime. The similar flow towards the summit of the majestic peak gave rise to various possibilities among the adventure-seekers.
Trekking to Everest base camp has become an absolutely perfect adventure for those who are seeking closeness with nature, fun, thrill, and adventure at the same time in the wilderness of the mountains.
As the trek progresses, you can see the majestic view of Mount Everest, in addition to other mountains, towering right infront of you. You will also find other attractions like the ancient Tengboche monastery, the famous Everest Base Camp, the beautiful Khumbu Icefall, and Kalapatthar. Kalapatthar is one of the best viewpoints in the Everest region.
If you want to go on a short Everest base camp trek, this is the ideal package for you.
Although Everest Base Camp Trek is doable throughout the year, the most favorable seasons are autumn and spring. The Spring season in Nepal falls in the months of March to May and the autumn season falls in the months of September to November.
During autumn, one can experience excellent weather and breathtaking mountain sceneries while during the spring, varying species of wildflowers, especially Red Rhododendron, make the trekking trail surreal. We have several Trekking adventures in Nepal but the Everest base camp trek is the most popular one.
Everest Base Camp Trek uses Lodge accommodations along the trail. Nice lodges have been established in different places in the region. You can choose accommodation to suit your interests. Whether you want to do it in luxury or on a budget, you have the option available. You can choose whether to stay in luxury lodges or simple lodges during the trek.
There are plenty of local lodges and tea-house on the way to the Everest Base Camp trek. As a popular trekking trail, you can get different choices of food on your way toward the base camp of the highest mountain on earth.
You can find the menu with varieties of food choices from Western, Indian, Italian, and local food. From Dal Bhat to Pizza, you have it all.
Although the walking hours differ every day, we can sum up the average walk to be around 6 hours every day. The walking hours are certainly only a tentative measurement. It doesn't reflect exactly the same for everyone.
The trek to Everest Base Camp certainly involves difficulty and challenges. You will have to go through several challenges on the trek although it is just a moderately difficult trek. Although it is a difficult trek in the Himalayas, you don't need any technical skills like in the climbing adventures.
You can read a blog about how difficult trekking to Everest base camp is here. .

However, some trekkers also choose to go through Gokyo Lakes and Cho La Pass and reach the base camp eventually.
Some of the trekkers also choose to start the trek from Jiri instead of Lukla. Starting a trek from Jiri is what people used to do before the airport in Lukla was established. Thus, people call this trek also by the name classic Everest base camp trek. The adventure needs an additional week to what you need to start the trek from Lukla.

I and my friend trekked to Everest base camp with this company and we were dumbfounded to go through the experience. It was not only the view of the mountains and nature but the service we received was beyond our expectations. From day one in Kathmandu, we felt welcomed and comfortable with the company. Basu explained what to expect so well that we were confident enough to start the trek and quite sure that we were going to enjoy the adventure. And it turned out to be much more than our expectations.
Our guide and porter were friendly and professional and knew what they were doing. We felt safe and comfortable in their hands. So lovely people they were.
We thoroughly enjoyed the trek and it is a memorable experience that we will cherish. And we can't recommend it enough to others to choose Basu and his company to organize your trek in Nepal.
