Overview

Visit the lap of the world’s highest peak – Mount Everest (8848 meters/29,029 feet) – on this epic Himalayan adventure. The Everest region has been revered as somewhat of a mythical place since Tenzing Norgay and Sir Edmund Hillary summited the peak in 1953 – and rightfully so. The landscape of the Everest region is truly unique, unlike anywhere else in the world. Walk on the rooftop of the world, alongside glaciers, yaks, and the lovely local Sherpa people.

Receiving blessings from Tengboche and other monasteries, our energy is high and we traverse deeper into the mountains. Several more unforgettable days of trekking leads us to the famous Everest Base Camp (5364 meters/17,598). The following day, we visit Kala Patthar (5545 meters/18,192 feet). Kala Patthar offers a heart-stopping view of Mount Everest and the Khumbu Icefall.
