Arrival in Kathmandu :
We strongly advise all participants to arrive in Kathmandu at least one day prior to the start of the trek. This allows sufficient time to:
- Attend the mandatory pre-trek group briefing
- Complete final gear checks and verify equipment
- Process and confirm all required permits
- Prepare for the early morning flight to Lukla
Arriving in advance also helps mitigate potential risks such as flight delays, baggage issues, or missed connections, ensuring a smooth and stress-free start to your trek.
Kathmandu to Lukla & return :
Important Note
The itinerary : including dates, locations, and trekking distances—may be subject to change due to unpredictable weather conditions in the Himalayas. Flights to and from Lukla are particularly sensitive to weather, and delays or cancellations are quite common.
Participants are strongly advised to keep buffer days in Kathmandu both before and after the trek to accommodate any unforeseen disruptions.
Travel Tip
To minimize the risk of travel disruptions, it is recommended to book your international return flight at least 2 days after your expected arrival back in Kathmandu, preferably in the evening.
Since Lukla flights are frequently delayed or canceled due to weather conditions, this buffer period provides flexibility and helps ensure you do not miss your onward journey.

the Everest Base Camp trek and explore a brief overview of what you’ll be doing each day along the trail.
DAY 1 – Tenzing Hillary Airport to Phakding
Lukla airport got the name of Tenzing Hillary Airport in the year 2008. And the reason is very obvious to all of us. To honor Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Sherpa,Due to the severe weather during the previous two days, we were unsure if we would be able to reach Lukla or not. When we got at the airport this morning, I noticed that check-in had already started. After checking in, we boarded the most perilous airplane of our generation, with only 12 seats. After a 30-minute journey, Team TTB arrived at the airport. The landing was amazing. Following breakfast and a trip briefing, we began our journey towards Phakding. We were traveling forward, past the Dudh Koshi River. The weather is beautiful, the trees are lush, and the air is clean at the commencement of the monsoon season.
Day 2 – Namche Baazar
Today we are going to the Namche Baazar, we have to cross a lot of uphill paths, on this part of the way there are several suspension bridges including the Hillary Bridge.Because the trail is uphill, everyone is concerned about what will happen in the following days, but it wasn’t a major worry after a short walk. Everyone was enjoying themselves as they walked along the trail, taking pictures. After a short hike, everyone saw Everest for the first time from Hillary Bridge. Everyone experiences an instant excitement and joy when they view Everest for the first time. Until you go to Namsij, you won’t believe that such a well-organized place can survive at such a high elevation.
Day 3 – Our acclimatization hike to the Hotel Everest View on the “Rest” day
Today we are going on a height gain, to reach the altitude in the hilly area, we go to a higher place to acclimatize ourselves to that place and spend some time there and then come back down, it is easier to acclimatize to that previous slightly higher place.
In the morning, after breakfast in Namche, we proceed towards Syangboche and from there we will go to Everest View Hotel, from where we can see Everest.
Day 4 – Tengboche
Our journey today may be a little difficult because the sky has not been very clear since morning.After a long uphill journey, we left Namche Baazar behind and headed towards Tangboche.The beauty of the path is wonderful to enjoy. As we have said before, this path is very green all around.
We saw very few animals since we reached Sagarmatha National Park, but it was well worth the effort. Fortunately, we were able to spot a musk deer wandering a short distance away. And we saw the Fire-Tailed Sunbird in the late afternoon light, in its short, dense canopy. We believe that we can appreciate many things if we can stroll around nature in a very peaceful manner.
Day 5 & 6 – Dingboche
The journey from Tengboche to Dingboche is one of the most beautiful and gradual climbs of the trek.
We start by descending through forests and crossing suspension bridges over the river valley, slowly losing altitude for a short while before the trail begins to climb again. The path takes us through small settlements like Deboche and Pangboche, with incredible views of peaks like Ama Dablam along the way.
Over the next few days, we will be ascending to an elevation of 5000 meters, therefore we will remain in Dingboche for the next two days. And you need esclematitis to adjust to that altitude. To adjust the body’s height We hiked in Dingboche from 4410 to 4800 meters above sea level. We trekked to the high ground and saw the stunning view of Mount Ama Dhablam.
Day 7 – Lobuche
After spending meaningful days climbing Nagarjun Peak and allowing our bodies to adapt in Dingboche, we step into one of the most powerful stretches of the journey.The trail ahead takes us across the raw and silent beauty of Thukla Pass on our way to Lobuche, climbing close to the 5,000 meter mark, where every breath feels earned and every step carries purpose.
Day 8 – Everest Base Camp
On this day, we’ll be trekking to Everest Base Camp, which is above 5,300 meters.
We’ll start early in the morning from Lobuche. As we walk, you’ll get to see beautiful peaks like Pumori and Nuptse along the way.
First, we’ll reach Gorak Shep. We’ll take a short break there, then carry our packed lunch and continue towards Everest Base Camp.
We usually reach base camp by the afternoon, where we’ll spend some time, have lunch, and celebrate this special moment together.
Day 9–10–11: Kala Patthar – Pheriche – Namche Bazaar
From there, we’ll trek down to Pheriche, and then continue towards Namche Bazaar over the next days.
After Namche, we’ll move towards Lukla.
Now, from Lukla, you’ll have two options:
- If you prefer, you can take a flight back
- Or, if you want a more adventurous route, we’ll continue trekking down to Surke
From Surke, we’ll take a vehicle and drive to Salleri, and from there, continue the drive all the way to Kathmandu.
