As implied by its title, the Everest View Trek offers a spectacular view of Everest. Our journey kicks off in Kathmandu with tours to UNESCO World Heritage Sites, followed by a trip to the most sought-after region in Nepal. As part of our trek, we visit the Tengboche Gumba, positioned at an altitude of 3,867 m and renowned as the largest monastery in Nepal’s Khumbu region. This location grants us breathtaking views of Nepal’s Himalayan range, including Tawache, Nuptse, Lhotse, Ama Dablam, Thamserku, and of course, Everest.

The Everest View Trek incorporates a plethora of Nepalese mountain vistas as well as deep and engaging cultural experiences with the Sherpa community, clearly linked to Buddhism. This trek provides an ideal opportunity for anyone desiring to absorb the awe-inspiring beauty of the Nepalese Himalayas, especially Everest, while participating in a manageable trek.

• Please note that often the Kathmandu-Lukla-Kathmandu flight gets delayed by a few hours or may even be canceled for one, two, or more days due to unfavorable weather conditions. Such conditions may arise even in the best seasons. Hence, in such cases, you must be prepared for long waits either at Kathmandu or Lukla airports, as this can happen either at the start or end of the trek or even both! We will do our best to avoid such delays, and arrange the next flight for you. We also organize Helicopter rescue in such conditions, if it is available and upon request by our clients. The helicopter charges around USD 3500 and it can lift 4-5 persons per flight. Still, we suggest you to be prepared for possible delays/cancellations, and if possible to come with some extra buffer days (1-2 days) at the end of the trip to accommodate such delays. If everything runs smoothly and you still have a few days of your buffer days left then you may even engage yourself in optional activities which can be arranged by Himalayan Glacier upon request. The optional activities may include visiting places/landmarks of your choice, adventure sports, shopping, etc. In case the flight delay/cancellation happens at the start of trip and it goes so long that it disturbs your onward travel schedule, you are free to choose an alternative trip such as a trek in the Annapurna, Langtang, or any other region. If you are not interested in the alternative trip and would rather wait for your original preferred trip, you are welcome to wait in Kathmandu for as many days as it takes to get a flight to Lukla. However, please note that there will be no refund, if you lose time waiting at the airport and do not take an alternative tour or you only do a short trek later due to time limitation. If the cancellation happens before the trip, we will provide you accommodation and lunch in a guesthouse in Kathmandu. In case of the flight delay/cancellation after finishing of the trek, you will be responsible for all your expenses. Please also note that you will not be entitled to any refund for the services (such as hotel, transport, flight, etc.) included in the package that you would not use later.

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
