Additional Information

Since its first sighting through mountain surveyors’ telescopes, Mt. Everest has been beckoning adventurers and mountaineers. The pathways ascending through the foothills of the world’s tallest peak continue to deliver some of the most demanding treks in Nepal. The Solukhumbu district is well-equipped for trekkers, boasting well-kept paths and ample lodging options. However, the trekking routes start and remain at higher altitudes, gracing the peaks of some of the most renowned mountains in the Himalayas.

The majority of trekkers commence their journey in Lukla, making their way steeply through the Khumbu mountains towards the Everest base camp or the holy lakes at Gokyo. Yet, hiking in via the paths from Shivalaya (located near Jiri) or Tumlingtar (near Hile) will improve your acclimatization to the altitude. As many treks exceed 4500 M, Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) poses a significant threat in this area. Therefore, it’s crucial to ascend at a slow pace and adhere to the suggested rest periods.

  • Everest base camp is suitable for all kind of people who are moderately fit, not any previous adventures experience is required. Some physical fitness activities such as running, swimming and walking are also recommended before your Everest base camp trekking. Persons suffering from a Pre-existing medical flaws must seek medical advice before considering the trek.

It was a dream comes true to be able to walk on the foot hills of Everest. - This is my second EBC trip. The first time I was with the group. Unfortunately I couldn't compete with the younger guys so I decided this time to solo with with one Sherpa. That was much better for me. I could walk my own pace and stop any time to take picture or rest. At the end trip cost wasn't much different than with a group. Suria took care of every details of the trip that I requested or needed, I was in good hand with him. The sherpa that he appoint to walk with me was great. Actually they all great people, very attentive very polite. Since we made last moment change in Sherpa, mine didn't have good English but at the end, we manage to understand each other. At the end I would highly recommend working with Suria, great guy, he is there to help you and you and he will fulfill or your need.

Wonderful Vacation to Everest Base Camp - I just came back from a wonderful vacation planned with the help of Surya at Global Holiday adventures. Planning a holiday to Nepal from the United States can be a little intimidating, not knowing who you can trust to make the arrangements with. After reading other reviews about this company, we contacted Surya to see if he could work with us for some special requests we had. We made the right choice going with his company. He was most accommodating to our special requests. The suggestions he made as to hotels were terrific. His staff from the driver and guide who picked us up at the airport, to the guide he assigned us to in the mountains were all kind and wonderful. I can’t say enough about their helpfulness. If your dream is to go to Nepal, to the Everest Base Camp and you are sitting on the fence, it’s time to call Global Holiday Adventures, you will not be sorry.

Everest Base Camp - If you are looking for an adventurous trip but don’t want to worry about the details, ha Surya at Global Holiday Adventures is the person who can do this for you.We just returned from the Everest Base Camp and are overwhelmed by the whole experience ! Every day was pure excitement! I was in contact with Surya using WhatsApp.I told him what we wanted to do, including some not so ordinary requests, such as flying into the Khumba Icefall, (which I had no hope of doing.) Surya made it happen. The hotels we stayed at were beyond great with fantastic views. The staff at them could not be more accommodating.Sitting around the fireplace at the end of the day, having mint tea and popcorn, and just relaxing is something I will never forget. There was a slight chill when we sat down, but the blankets which the staff brought to us helped until the fire began to warm us up.Surya would always check with us to see that we were OK. We never had to worry about anything. Our guide Dorchi was with us throughout the adventure , directing us where to go and when. We never had to think about anything other than having a fantastic time.We enjoyed ourselves from the very first day until Surya dropped us off at the airport to catch our flights home. With the help of Surya, we have made unforgettable friends and memories which will last for a lifetime.

Esperienza eccezionale: essere accompagnati nell'olimpo himalayano! - We are very happy with this experience! The organisational aspects were treated in a very professional way and we didn't have to worry about anything than enjoying our trekking. The guide was friendly, supportive and very professional at the same time, and both him and the agency have been always ready to answer our questions or provide new solutions when needed. The experience in itself was a little demanding in terms of energy and having somebody taking care of all the aspects like lodging, meals, tickets and porterà for the luggage has always been a relief. Great job Global Adventure!
