رحلة فاخرة إلى قاعدة إيفرست – 15 يوماً من المشي الموجه

The €2,200 price covers a fully guided 15‑day trek with an English‑speaking guide, all accommodation in the advertised luxury lodges, the internal flight from Kathmandu to Lukla and the return flight, Sagarmatha National Park entry permits, the pre‑trip briefing, entrance fees to the Kathmandu heritage sites listed in the itinerary, and a farewell dinner in Kathmandu. Meals, personal expenses, travel insurance, visa fees and optional activities are not listed as included.

No. The tour price only includes the domestic flight between Kathmandu and Lukla. Travelers must arrange and pay for their own international flights to and from Kathmandu.

Yes. Extras that are not covered include personal meals not provided by the lodge, tips for guide and staff, travel insurance, Nepal visa fees, optional side trips or equipment rentals, and any personal purchases or souvenirs. It is advisable to budget additional cash for these items.

Travel insurance is not listed as part of the €2,200 price and is therefore not included. Most operators strongly recommend (and sometimes require) that participants purchase a policy covering high‑altitude trekking, medical evacuation, and trip cancellation.

The exact meeting point is not listed, but most Kathmandu‑based tours convene in the Thamel area, often at a partner hotel or office. The pre‑trip discussion and trek briefing are usually held there before the group proceeds to Tribhuvan Airport for the Lukla flight.

Specific luggage limits are not provided. Lukla flights typically allow a cabin bag of 7‑8 kg and a checked bag of 15‑20 kg. Trekking gear is usually limited to a 15‑20 kg backpack. Verify the exact allowances with the operator and the airline before departure.

Most nationalities require a tourist visa for Nepal. Visas can be obtained on arrival at Tribhuvan Airport or at Nepalese consulates before travel. The visa fee is paid in USD, and the visa is typically valid for 30 days, which is sufficient for the 15‑day trek.

You will need a passport with at least six months validity, a passport‑size photo, and the visa fee in USD for the Nepal visa. The Sagarmatha National Park permit and the Lukla flight permit are usually arranged by the tour operator, but you should carry a copy of your passport and any confirmation they provide.

The trek involves 5‑7 hours of walking most days, with altitude reaching 5,545 m at Kala Patthar. A moderate to high fitness level is recommended, including prior experience with multi‑day trekking at altitude. Regular cardio, strength training, and a few practice hikes with a loaded pack will help prepare you.

The itinerary involves high altitude (above 5,000 m) and long daily walks, which can be challenging for young children. While the operator does not state an age limit, most providers advise against taking children under 12 on the Everest Base Camp route for safety reasons.

The Kathmandu portion includes a guided tour of Durbar Square (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), a visit to the sacred Hindu Pashupatinath Temple, a stop at Swayambhunath (the Monkey Temple, also a World Heritage Site), and a visit to Boudhanath, the largest stupa in the region.

Key high‑altitude highlights include crossing the Hillary Suspension Bridge, entering Sagarmatha National Park, the sunrise trek to Kala Patthar with panoramic views of Everest, reaching Everest Base Camp, visits to Tengboche Monastery and the historic Phulung Karpo campsite, and trekking on the Khumbu Glacier moraine.

Yes. The trek combines a cultural introduction in Kathmandu with the classic Everest Base Camp route, all supported by an experienced guide and comfortable lodge accommodations. For first‑time visitors who want a structured itinerary, safety support, and a mix of heritage sites and high‑altitude trekking, this tour is well suited.

Booking the guided trek handles all logistics: flight bookings, park permits, accommodation reservations, and daily navigation. A guide provides local knowledge, language assistance, and emergency support, which reduces risk at altitude. Independent planning requires more time, permits must be secured personally, and you would need to arrange transport and accommodation on your own.

Travelers who value comfort, safety, and cultural immersion while avoiding the hassle of arranging permits, flights, and lodging benefit most. This includes first‑time high‑altitude trekkers, those with limited trekking experience, and people who prefer staying in higher‑standard lodges rather than basic teahouses.

Prepare layered clothing for cold nights, a waterproof jacket, trekking boots, a 30‑40 L backpack, a sleeping bag rated to –10 °C, water‑purification tablets, a basic first‑aid kit, and any prescribed altitude medication after consulting a doctor. Physical conditioning, a valid passport, travel insurance, and a small amount of cash in Nepalese rupees are also essential.

The €2,200 fee includes a guide, internal flight, park permits, luxury lodge accommodation, and most logistical arrangements. If you organized the trek independently, you would still need to pay for the Lukla flight, permits, accommodation, guide (if desired), and transport, which often adds up to a similar amount plus the time and risk of arranging everything yourself. Therefore, the price is competitive for a fully supported experience.
