Climbing and trekking to Mount Everest Base Camp Trek

Everest Base Camp Trek with Overnight

Spend one night at basecamp and stand face to face with Chomolungma — the Goddess Mother of Earth

On this Ever­est Base Camp Trek our guides will show you an enchant­i­ng Nepal, a coun­try of hos­pitable peo­ple, beau­ti­ful scenery, and a large vari­ety of cul­tur­al tra­di­tions. This tour blends out­door adven­ture and cul­tur­al explo­ration and is a great way to expe­ri­ence the Himalayan Moun­tains — per­haps the world’s most impres­sive mountains.

Heli­copter flight back to Kath­man­du, sleep­ing bag, down jack­et, map, and duf­fel bag pro­vid­ed at no cost in addi­tion to all oth­er services

Our care­ful­ly craft­ed itin­er­ary ensures prop­er acclima­ti­za­tion, allow­ing you to ful­ly enjoy one of the world’s great treks and the non-tech­ni­cal ascent of 18,450 foot / 5624 meter Kala Pat­tar. Dis­cov­er why this has become one of our most reward­ing jour­neys and a Moun­tain Mad­ness Clas­sic, devel­oped by our founder Scott Fis­ch­er. You’ll enjoy our decades of expe­ri­ence in Nepal with the best pos­si­ble ser­vice and a time-hon­ored con­nec­tion to Nepal. 

Spring trekkers get close to base camp action and spend the night there elbow to elbow with the expe­di­tions from all over the world wait­ing for their chance to reach the lofty peak of the world!
