The Sagamartha (Everest) Base Camp trek
takes us into one of the most spectacular regions of
Nepal where the Sherpa culture thrives amongst the
highest peaks in the world. The Sagamartha massif as
seen from Thyangboche and Kala Pattar is a sight you
will never forget, and the hospitality of these tough
mountain people will remain with you for a long time.
This is the traditional trek to view Sagamartha,
following the historic trail and travelling in true
expedition style; it will appeal to those who wish to
retrace the steps of history to the base of the highest
mountain in the world. |

Day 02 :

explore Kathmandu, Patan, Bhaktapur and the
lessor known towns that dot the valley. The area
has an amazing range of fascinating highlights,
whatever your interest. Excellent bookshops,
extensive markets, novelty shops and handicraft
shops contrast with fantastic centres of
cultural and spiritual significance. Kathmandu
has more World heritage sites than any other
city in the world. A sightseeing tour is
organised for your benefit. |
Day 19 :
Day at leisure in Kathmandu. There are a million
things to see in Kathmandu and we recommend you
spend this day wandering around the town and
exploring the valley on bicycle or by taxi. The
old Royal Palace, Durbar Square, Swayambhunath
(the Monkey Temple), Pashupatinath (a major
Hindu shrine) and the giant Buddhist Stupa at
Bodnath are absolute musts. Our staff can help
you with arrangements or provide a guide and/or
transport should you wish, or you can head off
armed with a map and let the day unfold. An
optional Rock-climbing activity can be organised
for those who are interested - an additional
cost will be incurred for this option. |
