Everest Expedition 2024

    The Everest Expedition is a difficult and thrilling adventure that involves ascending Mount Everest, the world's highest mountain. The trip usually begins in Kathmandu, Nepal, when climbers make final preparations and get the appropriate permits and equipment. The expedition then continues to the Everest area, where climbers walk through stunning landscapes and lonely settlements to reach Everest Base Camp. An Everest Expedition is not just a personal challenge, but also an opportunity to connect with nature, immerse oneself in the rich Sherpa culture, and experience the awe-inspiring majesty of the Himalayas. It is a voyage that necessitates reverence for the mountain, meticulous planning, and a dedication to safety.

      Notes: The flight from Lukla to Kathmandu is redirected to Ramechhap due to traffic congestion and a high influx of tourists during the high season. The high tourist season in Nepal is spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). In the season of tourism, there are many international and domestic flights operating in different sectors which is more than capacities of the small Tribhuban international airport. Due to this reason, there is the problem with air traffic and delays in Lukla flights too. Lukla flights are only in the morning time and it does not fly during day time due to heavy wind and foggy weather on the way to Lukla. If the flights are from Ramechaap, there is no issue of air traffic and flight duration is also less than from Kathmandu. Flight to Ramechhap will add 5 hours approx. to your journey. It seems like an added inconvenience but let’s see the brighter side
