When is the best time for Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek?

We make arrangements for Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek any time of the year. However, the best time to visit this region is from March to mid-May and September to mid-November.




In the Spring and Autumn seasons, the weather is calm and stable. This helps to reduce any delays or cancellations of flights.




During these months, clear skies and stable weather conditions offer the best views of Mt Everest alongside Manaslu, Lhotse and Ama Dablam peaks.

What are the facilities and services provided on Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek?

During the Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek, you’ll spend your nights at the best hotels along the route that includes Yeti Mountain Home and Mulberry Hotel. Standard lodges, fine dining, massages, spa treatment, and WiFi services are provided in this package.




Yeti Mountain Home provides the highest standard of accommodation, featuring comfortable rooms, en-suite bathrooms with hot showers, and western-style toilets. You can enjoy soothing massages accompanied by delicious food and drinks.




Besides this, you’ll also stay in some of the best available lodges during the trek. These lodges provide comfortable accommodation with hot shower, WiFi and other amenities.

How difficult is the Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek?

The Everest Base Camp Luxury Lodge Trek is an easy to moderate level trek. When compared with the standard EBC trek, the luxury trek offers better facilities and services. Also, there is the added benefit of helicopter tour back from Kala Patthar (5,643 meters), the highest point in the trek.




Therefore, a fit and healthy body and a few weeks of cardio and strength training would be sufficient to go on this trek.

Do I need to train for Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek?

The Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek is not a very challenging trek. However, if you are a novice, we recommend a few weeks of basic cardio and strength training.




Best cardiovascular training includes running on an inclined treadmill, swimming, and cycling. Start your training with shorter sessions and gradually extend them to longer sessions. This will help improve the efficiency of your body to utilize oxygen.




Carry a rucksack, focus on your lower body, and perform one-legged squats, stair climbing, and running exercises. This will help boost up your strength and prepare you for the weight you need to carry while trekking.




Try flexibility training to keep your muscles loose and relaxed. Stretches are important too as it helps to avoid injuries during the training sessions.

Do I need to carry Diamox?

The highest point in the trek is Kala Patthar at an altitude of 5,643 meters above sea level. It is better to take preventive measures than to face severe illness. So we advise you to carry Diamox.

Our 10-day trek is designed focusing on the resting time required for an average individual to acclimatize to these heights. But in some rare cases, trekkers might suffer from altitude sickness. In these cases, Diamox helps to minimize risks and even save a person’s life.

Diamox is a diuretic drug that increases the secretion of bicarbonate in the kidneys, which leads to a decrease in the pH of the blood. This results in extra breathing, increasing the oxygen intake and concentration of oxygen in the blood.

Do I need to carry oxygen supplements?

No, you do not need to carry oxygen supplements for the EBC trek. In case of emergencies, you can get the oxygen supplements in the Everest Base Camp itself or most of the stops en-route to the Base Camp.

Do you provide Travel Insurance?

No, we do not provide travel insurance. However, we recommend all the trekkers to get travel insurance. This is very useful in case of any injuries during the trek. The insurance will help cover the medical expenses during your travel.

How long does it take to reach Everest Base Camp?

You can reach the Everest Base Camp even in a single day if you take the 1-day Heli tour. However, this 10-day Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek takes you to the Base Camp on the 8th day.

With proper acclimatization schedule and luxury hotels to spend comfortable nights in, this is the best way to explore the Everest Region.

Do I need to book early?

It depends upon you whether you want to book early or not. It is always a good thing to book early.




In the peak trekking month of October, a large number of trekkers might overflow the trekking routes, and the accommodations might not be available if you book late. So we advise you to book your trek as far back as possible if you are trekking in trekking seasons.

Can I buy the required trekking gear in Nepal?

Yes, you can buy the trekking gear required for the Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek after landing in Nepal.




You can buy almost all the gear that you may need in Kathmandu and Pokhara. If you lose a thing or two during your trek, you can also get shopping opportunities in Namche Bazaar, the highest trade center in Nepal.




Note that the things you buy in Nepal might not be of the same quality as the ones you buy from your country. But that doesn’t mean these trekking equipment aren’t usable. You can get a comfortable and enjoyable trekking experience with the gears available here.

Can I extend my trek?

Yes, you can extend your trek, but you will have to notify this to us before the trek starts. Your cost might also change depending upon the extent of your package.




In case of emergencies during the trek, we can extend the trek depending upon the situation

Do I need to tip the guides and porters? How much?

It is not mandatory to tip the guides and porters because the travel agency pays them. However, tipping displays appreciation for the service provided by a worker. So, you can tip if you are satisfied with the services rendered by the guides and porters.




While trekking in groups, trekkers tip 10 to 15 USD per day to the guide. While trekking solo, trekkers tip 3 to 5 USD per day.




Porters usually receive 5 to 10 USD per day while trekking with a group of trekkers. As with solo trekkers, they receive 2 to 4 USD per day.




There is no set rule on how much to tip your guide and porter. It depends upon you, and on the services you receive.

Best Time For Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek

The Spring and Autumn seasons are the best seasons for Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek. These seasons encircle months from March to mid-May and September to mid-November. 

In Spring, the temperature averages to 15 degrees Celsius in the daytime and -14 degrees Celsius during the night. 

While in Autumn, the temperature averages to 17 degrees Celsius during the day and -10 degrees Celsius at night. These are favourable temperatures for a great trekking experience.

During this time, there is a very low possibility of rainfall and the weather conditions are stable. The clear blue skies make sure you catch the best views of Mt Everest and the surrounding Himalayan Range.

The stable weather also reduces the chances of flight delays or cancellations.

A skilled and professional trekking guide will supervise your entire journey to the Everest Base Camp. The guide will have had proper training and experience for safely escorting you from Kathmandu to EBC and back to Kathmandu.

The guide we provide will also have undergone various training that includes Trekking Guide Training, Eco Trekking Workshop, and English Language Training. 

The guide will manage the number of porters required for the trek. The number of porters that will accompany your journey might differ depending upon the number of trekkers and the luggage. We recommend packing your luggage bags under 15 kgs. 

These porters are well treated and well paid. In the case of any illness or emergencies, porters receive equal medical attention as every other team member. We support the International Porter Protection Group (IPPG) and the work it’s doing to improve the lives of porters.

Acclimatization

Our 10-days Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek emphasizes the requirements of acclimatization for an average individual. The ascents to higher altitudes are gradual, thus providing enough time to acclimatize to the increasing elevation.

On the fifth day of the trek, you reach Dingboche. This is at an altitude of 4,410 meters. The following day, you will rest for the entire day at Dingboche. This gives sufficient time for the trekkers to acclimatize in the high altitude. 

In rare cases, a person might suffer from altitude sickness. In such a case, we have oxygen supplements and medicines like Diamox to provide quick relief to the victim. 

Depending upon the condition, a victim may or may not be allowed to continue the trek further.

Internet, WiFi and Network Information

Most of the hotels and stops en-route to the Everest Base Camp offer WiFi services. But using these WiFi services may be subject to additional charges.

As for cellular connectivity, if you have international services on your cell phone, you can get network coverage throughout the EBC trekking trail.

If you use Nepal’s Network Communications that include Ncell and Nepal Telecom, you can get 3G and 4G network coverage along the EBC Trekking trails. You could also use these networks to access the internet. The cost of using these services may vary depending upon the network you choose.  

Travel Insurance

In the event of any medical issues or accidents, a victim might require emergency medical attention like oxygen supplements, helicopter rescue, and hospital fees, which might end up being quite costly. 

In such a situation, insurance helps cover your expenses. That is why we recommend getting travel insurance. 

But note that we do not provide insurance services.

Training and Health Requirements

An average person with a fit and healthy body can comfortably complete the Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek. A novice who has never gone on any trekking might require a few weeks of basic cardiovascular and strength training.

A few weeks of running in an inclined treadmill, swimming, and cycling should improve the efficiency of your heart and lungs. Start with shorter sessions and increase them to longer sessions.  

As for strength training, carry a rucksack, focus on your lower body, and perform one-legged squats, stair climbing, and running exercises. This will help build the strength required for comfortably walking long hours on the trek while carrying your daypack.

Also, perform some flexibility and stretching training to keep your muscles loose and relaxed.

    Hi, First I should thank for the hospitality.It was excellent.There were ten members in our team Mr.Raj the guide gave individual attention to each and everyone of us.And also I should say that he did his best on his side when two members of our team felt sick.That I appreciate alot in him,because that is all what we expect when we are in a foreign country.so thank for everything. Thank you Mr.Mukti and Mr.Raj for the wonderful support during our trek to EBC
  2. We just retuned from the 9 Day Luxury Mt. Everest Trek. Our guide, Raj, could not have been better. He paced the hike to our speed and we took several breaks throughout the daily hike for tea and lunch making the difficult hike enjoyable. He arranged all of our meals and we had the best possible accommodations. Coming back we had a delay due to the weather in Lukla. Mukti, the owner, was able to arrange a helicopter from Surkey when it looked like the airport was not going to reopen soon and had flights arranged for us when we returned so that we could continue our trip in India as we had planned. This is a fantastic company and their attention to detail made it a great trip. I would recommend it to anyone.
