Hike to the doorstep of the world’s highest mountain, which is arguably the highlight of any journey to Mt. Everest. This Everest Base Camp trek takes even the most novice climber on a strenuous but friendly exploration of Nepal’s magical Khumbu region, allowing for close-up views of dozens of Himalayan giants without the dangers and technical requirements of an actual summit. Sleeping mainly in tea houses along the path, ease into the vibrant Sherpa culture, pose alongside friendly herds of yaks, breathe in the aromas of hedgerows and Rhododendrons bursting to life, and run your fingertips through the rush of glacial water as you approach that most illustrious of giants, Mt. Everest.
