Everest Base Camp Trek

Retrace the steps of pioneering adventurers as you walk the classic trail to Everest Base Camp. Led by English-speaking mountain guides from the Himalaya region, we navigate the most illustrious range on the planet, staying in traditional teahouses and visiting atmospheric Sherpa villages. It’s a challenging trek but one made a little easier with our built-in acclimatisation day, our high staff-to-traveller ratio (1:4) and the never-forgotten reward of seeing Everest in all its glory.Expedition departures: Spend two nights at Everest Base Camp in spring, when the climbing parties are preparing for their summit attempt.
