Everest Base Camp 14 days Trek Weather and Accessibility
Everest Base Camp is at an elevation of (17,600 feet/5380 meters), and the overland route to arrive is additionally high. This implies it's never truly 'warm' in the Khumbu Region, yet there are still dramatic contrasts in temperatures, precipitation, and snowfall consistently throughout the year.
The Everest Base Camp 14 days trek weather can vary significantly depending on the season. The best times to trek are during the pre-monsoon (March to May) and post-monsoon (September to November) seasons. During these periods, trekkers can expect stable weather, clear skies, and moderate temperatures, though nights can be quite cold. Winter treks (December to February) offer fewer crowds but colder temperatures and snow, while the monsoon season (June to August) brings heavy rainfall, making the trails slippery and less predictable. Proper preparation and gear are essential for handling the diverse Everest Base Camp 14 days trek weather conditions on the trek.
Spring and Autumn:
The best months for trekking in the Everest region are March, April, May, mid-September, October, and November, as these months are the point at which the conditions are truly the best. The spring and autumn (pre-winter) in general offer temperatures that warm the heart, with clear blue glimmering skies, almost no showers, and less possibility of dangerous snowfall.
Furthermore, these months are when the trails are busiest and clogged with hordes of backpackers; however, in case you're looking for the best climate conditions, which are a bargain you will need to cope with them if you expect quieter trails with more tranquility.
Winter:
The winter (December, January, and February) isn't an 'awful' time to trek to EBC; however, it's surely a slower time of year. Temperatures can get incredibly cold, so you should be well-layered and steady for freezing conditions. In any case, the skies tend to be clear in winter, which means superb mountain views. Also, you won't need to jostle for space with different trekkers because the trails are less crowded.
The Monsoon:
With the arrival of monsoon rains by mid-June, the trails see much fewer trekkers. The early part of the month usually marks the end of the Everest climbing season, so climbers and other expedition members retrace their steps along the 14 days Everest Base Camp trek route and back to Lukla. Here's what to expect in the Everest region in June and onwards:
If you’re thinking about trekking Everest Base Camp during monsoon, it may be one of the best decisions you’ve ever made in a while.

Although this is the main problem while trekking in the monsoon season, various aspects will make you want to trek in this season even more. Here’s some information regarding why you might want to trek in this season:
Fewer people:
Yes, since it is considered off-season, there won’t be many people to trek and the trails will be relatively empty. You can have all the trails and tea houses to yourself.

Wouldn’t you like that?

Detailed Everest Base Camp Trek 14 Days Itinerary
Day 01: Arrival Kathmandu Airport (1360m)
Our office representative will be on standby with our vehicle to Meet and greet you at the airport. You will see our display board with your name written inside a heart with ‘Unique Adventure International’ distinctly displayed. This is the only display board of its kind among a whole lot of others. You will be transferred to your hotel. Depending on your arrival time, you may have the opportunity to get familiar with the area of the hotel surroundings and get acclimated to this happening medieval city. Alternatively, you may prefer to recover from your journey by relaxing beside the hotel pool and getting rid of all that jetlag. Your guide will later provide you with an informal briefing about your trip in the days ahead. Later in the evening, it would be good to have an early supper and get to bed so you could get up early the next day to begin your 14 days Everest Base Camp trek route. Overnight at your hotel in the valley of temples, some say it’s the most on earth.
Day 02: Fly to Lukla, trek to Phakding (2,651m/8,700ft): 8km, 3 - 4 hours trek
We will need to wake up before the birds and depart the hotel at around 2-3 am for a drive to Manthali (Ramechhap) airport to catch our flight to Lukla. During this time of day, there is usually light traffic, and the drive ought to take something like 3-4 hours. Roads in Nepal are not of the same standard as in the West, there may be potholed areas and the last section is pretty roughshod. We fly to the mountain airstrip of Lukla (2,800m); and relish what we see on one of the most beautiful air routes on earth, which stunningly concludes on a sharp ridge surrounded by high mountainous peaks. Lukla is a gateway to the Khumbu region and our trek begins from hereabouts. We meet our other crew members and start sorting out our equipment with help from them. We then hit the trails for a brief leg of our trek, heading northwards up the valley of the Dudh Kosi (or 'Milk River' known so because of the gushing streams that look white and milky). We descend from the small plateau, down into the lush forested valley. The trail offers some teasing views before reaching the small settlement of Phakding at (2,652m), where we spend our first night in a Tea-house lodge (our sleeping altitude is 2,652m)
Day 03: Trek from Phakding to Namche Bazaar (3,438m/11,280 ft): 11km, 5 - 6 hours
After a hot breakfast, we head out of Phakding and follow the Dudh Kosi northwards. Today's hike takes us through splendid forests with lovely vistas of the mountains ahead. We criss cross the river several times by airy bridges as we pass through the villages of Benkar, Monjo, and Jorsale. The last bridge brings us to the foot of the sharp climb to Namche. Halfway up this ascent, we are likely to get our first views, if the clouds are kind, of the summit of Everest which appears regally behind the great rim of Nuptse-Lhotse. The last 300m of climbing brings us to Namche Bazaar, the Sherpa capital, and the main town in the area. Namche is a flourishing Sherpa town and an ancient trading center.
It has a weekly market on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning but the town buzzes every day with trekkers, coffee shops, bakeries, ATMs, internet cafes, government offices, a bank, great restaurants, and stores selling all kinds of trekking and climbing gear as well as Tibetan souvenirs. You will have enough time to stroll around and bargain for something you like. We will bunk out in a hotel or teahouse lodge (our sleeping altitude is 3,440m)
Day 04: Acclimatization Day - Namche Bazaar: (3,440m/11,284ft)
After breakfast, we begin our acclimatization hikes. It is important to walk to higher altitudes during your two-day stay in Namche Bazaar. There are options here to trek to Khumjung where you can visit the local school and hospital or to Thame village, home to Sherpa Everest expediters, namely, the great Everest climber Tenzing Norgay.
We can also hike to the airstrip in Syangboche at (3720m), above the airstrip is the Everest view hotel, which was set up by the Japanese to bring affluent tourists into the region for a prime view of Everest. Acclimatization should be a factor of concern as Everest Base Camp 14 days trek altitude can cause altitude sickness.
For much of the walk, we have great views of Ama Dablam and other Himalayan giants. We walk back down through Khumjung to a monastery. Sadly, it was damaged in the earthquake but is now being repaired. Inside is a small box and after paying the entry fee (which goes towards the repairs) - we will be shown the only Yeti skull in the world! Descending the main trail we spend the night at Namche
Day 05: Namche Bazaar to Tengboche (3,870m/12,694ft): 10km, 5 - 6 hours
This morning after breakfast, we descended to the river line and crossed it at the small settlement of Phunki Tenga at 3,250m, then climbed steeply through the forest to Tengboche at 3,870m. We ought to arrive here by lunchtime and at noon we will visit the famous monastery. The sunset and sunrise on these unbelievable panoramas of mountains we behold is something we will never forget for some time to come - Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse, and Ama Dablam provide a spectacular backdrop to our teahouse. As we hike we look out for Himalayan Tahr in the lush forest surrounding the monastery. We crash out in our tea house (sleeping at an altitude of 3,870m)
Day 06: Tengboche to Dingboche (4,350 m/14,300 ft): 9km, 5 - 6 hours
After breakfast, we descend and hike through dense forests filled with abundant trees – birch, conifers, and rhododendrons. This walk wonderfully rewards us with fabulous views of Mt. Everest, Lhotse, and Ama Dablam. The quaint trail dips down to Deboche, crosses the Imja River, and takes us to the pretty village of Pangboche. The upper Pangboche trails welcome us with more immaculate views of the big peaks and the old Pangboche Monastery, one of the oldest in Khumbu. The hike then goes ahead towards the Imja Valley, and Lobuche River and finally begins clambering up to Dingboche. At Dingboche, we see a fine display of fields surrounded by stone walls to protect crops of barley, buckwheat, and potatoes from the cold winds and grazing animals. We spend the night here in a tea-house lodge (sleeping at an altitude of 4,350m)
Day 07: Dingboche: Acclimatization
Dingboche is a well-known haul-up point for trekkers and climbers making a beeline to Mt. Everest, Ama Dablam, or Island Peak [Imja Tse]. The chocolate box village is attractive with an assortment of fields surrounded by stone walls to protect precious crops like barley, buckwheat, and potatoes from strong winds and grazing animals. We hang around for a day at Dingboche to get used to the thin air we will experience in the days ahead. We take day hikes to Nagarjun Hill or Chukhung Valley for great views of Makalu, Lhotse, Cholatse, Tawache, and Ama Dablam. Those adapting well to the altitude can climb Nangkartshang Peak at 5,100m. There is the option to climb halfway to the peak or for the energetic it takes about 3.5 hours to the top. Everest Base Camp 14 days trek difficulty is worth the effort because of the amazing views. We bunk out at the same altitude for the night.
Day 08: Dingboche to Lobuche (4940 m/16,207 ft): 7km, 5-6 hours
After breakfast, we set out on the trail as it climbs steeply out of Dingboche past a chorten and ascends the valley gradually to Dughla at the end of the terminal moraine of the Khumbu Glacier. We haul up hereabouts for a tea break and munch on some snacks before the sharp climb up to Chupki Lhara, a beautiful, yet touching place where you will find a line of memorials in honor of the climbers who died on Everest and from where we have views of the peaks lying on the Nepal-Tibet border. Our trail then cools off as we go by the valley to Lobuche, a pretty little hamlet with a few teahouses. Late afternoon we get options to hike up onto the lateral moraine of the Khumbu glacier to witness a breathtaking sunset on Nuptse which you will not forget in a hurry. We then spend the night in a tea-house sleeping at an altitude of 4,940m).
Day 09: Lobuche to Gorak Shep (5,170 m/16,961ft), visit Everest Base Camp (5,364 m/17,594 ft): 13km, 6-7 hours
Today after breakfast, we must be prepared for a grueling, challenging day and hit the trails very early. We head for the Khumbu Glacier northwards to Gorak Shep. The trail goes up and down the moraine with some short steep sections. The path is stony as we are now on the lateral moraine of the Khumbu Glacier. We take something like 2-3 hours to reach Gorak Shep where we haul up for a breather and something to eat. Between base camp and back no lodges are available, so we will fill our water bottles and carry some snacks for the journey to Everest Base Camp. We start by walking across a grimy flat at Gorak Shep and climb onto the lateral moraine of the Khumbu glacier. The trail ascends the side of the glacier for several hours before finally descending onto the rocky glacial moraine itself. The trail winds up and down through interesting ice seracs to the area we call Everest Base Camp. In spring, we might see in the distance some of the expedition teams gearing up to climb the mountain. From the Base Camp, we get stunning upfront views of the Khumbu Icefall as we understand how difficult it is for the climbers to negotiate a route through the huge blocks of ice. Nuptse towers above us and Pumori rears up behind us.
After a brief halt to get some great pictures by the Base Camp rock, we retrace our steps to Gorak Shep. We stop here for a night in tea-house lodges sleeping at an altitude of 5,170m.
Day 10: Gorak Shep - Kala Pathar [5545m] - Pangboche [(3985m/ 13,070 ft):]: 8 - 9 hrs
We get set for an early morning departure, real early at the break of dawn in darkness and cold temperatures (-10 to -14 C). Plus, we must brace up for biting winds which are quite common. Familiar peaks such as Lingtren, Khumbutse, and Changtse tower to the east even as Everest begins to reveal itself. Nevertheless, it is upon reaching Kala Pathar that we get to see 360-degree close-ups and gripping, breathtaking views of Mt. Everest. Our video cams go on overdrive; we enjoy the glorious mountain panorama, and then return to Pangboche via Pheriche for a well-earned night's rest. The early afternoon is used to descend to Pangboche for a good night's rest. Pangboche is a great village to spend the day because of its ancient monastery.
We also interestingly get to know that all the ice doctors who prepare Everest summiteers for the big climb hail from this pretty village. We spent our night at a teahouse lodge sleeping at an altitude of 3985m.
Day 11: Pangboche to Namche Bazaar (3,440m/11,280 ft): 20km, 6 - 7 hours
After breakfast, we begin our trek down through a ridge carpeted by rhododendrons and juniper trees. After crossing the airy prayer-flag festooned bridge over the Dudh Koshi River, our trail clings to the Dudh Koshi gorge descending rapidly, but pleasantly through pine forests. While in the forest, we may come across colorful pheasants and mountain goats. The route finally reaches Sanasa from where we can enjoy views of Ama Dablam, Thamserku, and Nuptse mountains. We also pass meandering trails and cut through a forest before reaching the bustling Namche Bazaar. We do an Overnight in Namche Bazaar at an altitude of 3,440m.
Day 12: Namche Bazaar to Lukla (2,860m/9,186ft): 19km, 6 - 7 hours
This is our last day on these lovely mountains which have been home to us all these days!
Today the trail descends sharply downward so we need to take care as our tired wobbly legs continuously navigate the rock-strewn terrain. After crossing some airy suspension bridges over the gushing Dudh Koshi and its tributaries, the trail gets a bit easygoing and natural. When we finally touch down at Lukla, we relax our aching legs and reminisce on the wonderful experiences of the last couple of weeks. We arranged for a special celebration because this is our last day in these mountains that have given us so much joy all these days. We then go to bed after a wonderful day in Lukla.
Day 13: We fly out to Kathmandu
We hop an early morning flight to Kathmandu after our almost 2 weeks mountain odyssey. On reaching Kathmandu, we can rest or do some last-minute souvenir shopping. If we want to participate in any other activities of ancient Kathmandu, we may do that today. Our guides can help you with some shopping or sightseeing.

We are what we were from the very beginning: Read on to know us the way we are…
At Unique Adventure International, We do not pretend to be what we are not, ours is a simple ethic, hospitality straight from the heart. When doing trips with us, you will soon find out excellence with us is not just a norm, it’s more a habit.
We have walked the length and breadth of the Himalaya across Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan for over two decades…and still counting, we have enjoyed all of it so much; right to the hilt. We love our mountains and enjoy it so much when we tread its trails with our trekking guests, who also love these mountains as much as us or maybe even more. We have much knowledge of the land and meticulously plan things so our guests get the utmost from their sojourns with us; we know how chaotic it can be for our guests when they organise holidays so far from home…keeping this in mind, we sort out for the long haul and ensure our guests do not only have fun on the way but also get value for money with purposeful journeys. We know and understand that this may probably be a once in a lifetime holiday where you will explore a world not too familiar and its binding for us to make doubly sure you are completely safe throughout the whole course of your expedition when you are in Nepal. With each trip we do with you, we are constantly searching for ways to improve our services so that your expectations of us are met beyond what you could have ever expected on all fronts. We want that you go home with a happy heart and unforgettable memories of an odyssey well done. With Unique Adventure, this is central to all our thoughts when we meet you.
A small business with big ideals…
We are a small outfit with big ideas and we know how complex human nature can be; its only but human to understand your weaknesses and respect your strengths, both of which will be put to the test on the punishing trails of Nepal, but it’s always our mission to understand you and make your journey as calm as possible.
This is the whole reason why we get repeat clients who never seem to get drained with the Himalayas and enjoy the way we guide them throughout the trip…
We know how worrisome it can be when you choose to live life on the edge… so we go the mile to make sure your holidays become more purposeful, more significant…
We do not push you, no matter what the circumstances…
We know you want it slow and easy the moment your plane hits the tarmac in Kathmandu. We understand your instinctive curiosities and ensure you are left alone with enough space to do what we have planned for you – ‘your way’’. You call the shots – it’s your trip – and we provide you enough freedom to make your own decisions in harmony with your group. We help you to become friends and bridge gaps; it’s a matter of pride for us to mention here that we created some of the best friendships where some morphed into lifetime partnerships and this is how things shape out with us when you assemble in our country. And when we are out with you in the country at high elevations, we ensure that our crew leads you in ways comfortable to your body and physical needs.
Our ‘True-to-Life’ practical itineraries…
Our itineraries are meticulously planned and based on the way you see it when your trip commences. Our themes are hands-on and we take you to some difficult but extraordinary places where some would likely pass by. We know you thirst for the unknown and interesting; your search for things that will ignite your emotions and imaginations, seeking for the ‘whys’, how’s and when’s’ into the mountain culture, lifestyles and traditions that you witness in territory you have never been familiar with. We put in a lot of effort to create astonishing one-off experiences which would make great notes for memorable stories to pass down to the coming generations. Each trip we design opens up new avenues to a whole new world that you are not familiar with…and when you discover the answers, it could be a life changing experience you would have never expected.
Trips to match your time frames…
We are flexible in the way we operate our trips based on your exclusive needs. We understand the kind of pressure ridden world you hail from and know you have worked hard for your dream holidays. Our programs are typically designed to give you the most and the best based on your time limitations without any blemishes on the joys that come with your venture.
You could be planning a budget trek or a luxury tour, maybe even a trekking peak; whatever the choice, we give you an extension combo so you have a scintillating mix of history, the outdoors and even jell in a jungle safari into the potpourri so you have varied experiences within the timeframe you’ve chosen. Our website is programmed to give you a host of options to make you smile…
Accommodation: They say Home is where the Hearth is…and yes, the Pillow!!
We are extra wary when arranging your accommodation before you enter our country. We know we’ve got to give you something that’s closest to home. After consulting with you and being twice as sure about what you’re expecting when it comes down to that most important part of life: resting your body and mind at night, we make sure we give you the best accommodating facilities available at a hotel that’s not only comfortable but also a place that is spanking clean with fresh linen and staff who understand your needs and go the length in making sure you feel at home, no matter what the length of your stay with us.
This also includes the sanitized conditions of the food you are served. Even when on the trails, we go the mile to make sure you find a cosy teahouse with no dampness and enough ventilation to keep you healthy and warm with food that’s organic and clean. We know how important the hearth is wherever you stay. With us, be sure that all your personal needs are taken care of well. Ours is the kind of hospitality that comes straight from the heart…
Safety and Security: This is mandatory and imperative…
Our safety and security arrangements for all our inbound guests cross all boundaries; from the moment your jet hits the tarmac at the airport in Kathmandu. This is a process that begins prior to your arrival in Kathmandu, when we design your itinerary based on the program you have chosen. It begins with choosing the right team for you, especially if it’s a trek. We make sure your crew is primed for any contingency when at altitude. We believe in following firm standards with focus on risk assessment knowing mountain climbing is always a risky business despite the excitement it offers. All the planning is done prior to your arrival so you have a carefree, footloose and fancy free journey, without any hassles.
We always advise our guests to go through medical routines in their home countries before embarking on trips above 3000m. We also encourage our guests to get insured before coming to Nepal.
Your entire stay in Nepal is monitored from day one, especially when you are on the mountains. We take nothing for granted, nature can be a monster when least expected. When booking your trip through ‘Unique Adventure, you are not just a client – you are more than all that - you are a parent, a brother/sister, a close colleague – in a word – ‘family’; and all our safety precautions and personalized services are purely based on this relationship.
We Respect and Care for the local folks and Love the Environment we operate in…
We are conscious in the importance of preserving the natural beauty and culture of Nepal, so that future visitors can also enjoy the wonders of this beautiful but fragile environment. We are sensitive and devoted to responsible travel with minimum impact on the environment and local communities. The planet is large enough for everyone to explore and it’s the curiosity of human nature to explore and discover the unknown. We are always careful about the ecosystems that surround us when we are on the mountains, but we don’t let this spoil the spirit for adventure. We seek to enjoy in ways beneficial to others and wish to respect this beauty that God created for us to appreciate; and we want to keep it that way. Equally important, we instruct our crew and travellers to be aware of the values of responsible travel, by: respecting people, cultures and local environments, in creating goodwill; with cross-cultural sharing and experiences; and helping make sustainable development practical, where we put in efforts to give back more than we take.
Our Trekking crews are Principal to the Company…we’re Family…
One paramount issue for trekking companies in Nepal are employees directly connected to guests when trekking in the Himalayas and this is key to any trip conducted anywhere on the Himalayas. Our staffs in general receive fixed monthly salaries and our trekking crews get special rates as defined by the Ministry of Labour in consultation with the Ministry of Tourism - Government of Nepal.
This also includes the provision of Social Security for mountain workers as per government directives. In addition to this, we also provide climbing training to new comers listed on our payroll. All our seasoned guides are well trained in the use and application of First Aid in the event of any unexpected injuries that may occur in the course of the journey when at altitude.
Field Employees are constantly upgraded for personal development, delivered via courses in English, about nature, history, and ongoing training as mountain guides with techniques based on safety precautions...along with this, our mountain crews are insured and covered against any eventualities. The insurance package covers the cost of health care if injured or sick and provides a lifetime gratuity if any employee is physically disabled. We treat our employees as valuable assets. We know their security and happiness is vital to ensure yours throughout your stay in Nepal…
Innovation: We are constantly juggling new Products…
Ours is a constant search for new trails in the great wilderness. We’re always innovating new areas for travel within and around the city limits and out on the mountains. Nepal has so much to offer in her ancient heritage cities and within the vast expanse of her Himalayas. We ceaselessly research new products in order to give our old clients new thrills; this has always been part of our company’s policies for giving more value for money. We know that many of our guests rarely get time to travel and when they do, they’d sure like to make the best of it; besides Nepal, we even cut across borders giving our guests unbelievable historical and cultural highlights of Tibet, Bhutan and India. We even design divine spiritual tours for the holy who’d sure like to hike down footsteps of ancient ancestors along the Mount Kailash Mountains so that they could come face-to-face with the gods. You even get opportunities to stroll down the cobbled stone Squares of Patan and Bhaktapur and slip into the Forbidden Temple of Pashupatinath. Beyond the spiritual of Kailash in Tibet, our programs take you to the highest region on earth, at an elevation of 4,900 meters (16,000 ft). Very much noted as the ‘roof of the world’, Tibet is symbolic of a mesmerizing culture seeped in spirituality and nature. From superb temples and tranquil monasteries to the Yangtze River and adorable Pandas, our products are molded in a way that ensures you experience a whole new world of amazing discoveries that tells you about God’s gift of a wonderful planet we all live in.

We give you Mountain Yoga
The Mountain Yoga we offer on the trail is an earthy, friendly and unassuming space, dedicated to healing and transformation as your mind battles the vagaries of nature while on your journey in the wild. When you decide to holiday on the mountains; it’s like a calling into the high and wild to experience Mother Nature at a higher level and to explore her true beauty. But there’s another calling that wants you to find release from your inner demons. It might be seen as the feeling that there has to be more to life than our day-to-day routines in the machine of modern day society. As you go higher above the tree-lines, our certified yoga guides give you the kind of alignment helpful to your body’s needs when adjusting to the thin air at altitude. They are compassionate, knowledgeable and guide you with postures and breathing exercises that promote physical fitness at higher elevations, keeping the mind calmer, making your self-awareness more acute, and help you get more balanced, while preventing you from having any problems with altitude mountain sickness. Yoga is an ancient practice known for thousands of years to clean out even the deepest mental grooves and rigid mindsets which may hamper your trip and spoil the fun on your trek.
We are the only adventure company in Nepal offering our guests mountain yoga which enhances hassle free trips and keeps our guests safe from common altitude problems.
Our Success Ratio…
We’ve been through it all – the ups and downs have been full and plenty. The series of earthquakes of 2015 affected us bitterly; however, we kept the faith. We knew this was nature at its best and worst. We do not take anything for granted when it’s a tryst with Mother Nature, especially in the wilderness above the tree-lines. We knew we would still need these mountains more than they need us...These mountains teach us so much about life. It was Almighty God that created these mountains with all its stark beauty, but then a natural calamity can be lurking somewhere around the bend, and we must always be aware of the environment - and this comes with respect, consciousness and faith.
Despite the hurdles and hiccups, our Success Ratio has been over 98%, why? Because experience has taught us the hard way to Love God, respect the mountains, to learn from our mistakes, and to always, at all times, be Honest with our Guests…and let God do the rest.
Everest North Side Advanced Base Camp - (6500m)
My friend traveled with Unique Adventure several years ago. So, it was an easy choice for us, when we decided to reach Advanced Base Camp (ABC), 6500 m, on the North side of Everest. We just contacted Khum.
Unique Adventure is a Nepalese company. To arrange trekking in Tibet, the company collaborated with the Tibet Kyunglung Travel Service, making sure that all necessary logistics is in place. With their well coordinated efforts, we became legal in Tibet and smoothly crossed the Chinese border in both directions.
We had a Tibetan guide, Paldin, responsible for booking and transportation in Tibet. We also had a Nepal Sherpa guide, Tenging, who arranged a permit to the ABC 6500m on the North Face of Everest and with his small crew and yaks helped our successful trekking (see everest6500.com), while providing us with food and comfort to the degree possible above 5,000m.
Thank you, Khum, Paldin, Tanging!

Trekking to Everest
Dear Mr. Khum Bahadur Subedi;
At first, I would like to express my gratitude to you, and Mr. Rinjee Sherpa.
You and your staffs always supported me during my trekking. And thank you for giving me your nice souvenir.
I enjoyed the trekking very much.
You may know I added the tow passes to the your company original route after starting trekking, I am very happy that I succeed in trekking the two great view point peaks and the three great passes in 15 days at my 68 ages. Especially the Kongma La is very sever route and I trekked 12 hours. The success of this time trekking will be my greatest memory in my life. I will never forget. I believe that due to the support of the nice guide by Mr. Rinjee Sherpa in your Company, I succeeded in these very heavy and deep severe trekking. If Mr. Rinjee Sherpa was not my guide, I could not made the great, wonderful and beautiful memories. Please transfer my best regards to Mr.Sherpa. I have a plan of Langtang trek next year.
I hope you have a happy new year.

Big group from Palestine - EBC
We trekked from Lukla to EBC in 6 days. The group was 28 people all of them from Palestine. All the team made it to the BC with no problems. Our guide was Mr. Lakpa, an experienced and helpful guide who never miss any opportunity to support us in all means. I choose Unique Adventure as an operator and organizer for our climb. I know Mr. Khum the directory for a long time... I climbed with his company in 2013 Mera Peak and Island peak, my guide was my friend Lakpa. IThe hostels and food were good along the path, and we enjoyed every minute of the trip. I hope to see you again my friends in Nepal... a wonderful country and people. I will organize new trips with Unique Adventure in 2022... I highly recommend them ... they are lovely people Rgds, Samer Palestine

Everest BC trek
The Everest Base Camp trek is a classic trek to the base of the highest peak in the world, Mount Everest (8,848 meter). Apart from Mount Everest, you will also get to see Mt. Lhotse (8,516 meter), Mt. Makalu (8,463 meter), Mt. Nuptse (7,861 meter), Mt. Pumori (7,161 meter), Mt. Ama Dablam (6,812 meter) and many other Himalayan giants. Moreover, you will get to visit several Sherpa villages along the amazing Everest Base Camp trail. Thus, besides taking you to the foot of the world's highest mountain, this trek also gives you a great insight into the local Buddhist culture and lets you experience the famous Nepalese hospitality firsthand, including meeting with the famous Sherpa people.

Great Nepal experience with Unique Adventure
Unique Adventure International provide an excellent end-to-end service including transfers, accommodation and trekking arrangements but also trip to Chitwan National Park which was as interesting as trek. Chris ensured that our holiday went smoothly and to plan. He was able to arrange even impossible means transportation during election day. Our guide, Praveen, took great care of us and saw to it that each day on trek was memorable and enjoyable. Praveen was responsible for our accommodation each and made sure that it was ready for us at the end of each day by sending the porters ahead with all our luggage. All aspects of our trip were fantastic and I would highly recommend Unique Adventure International to anyone contemplating trekking in the Himalaya and any other place in Nepal.
Kornelia Saft
An excellent experience all round
I used Unique Adventure International 3 times to do various treks and each time was a fantastic experience, very knowledgeable and friendly guides, great places to stay and always sights to see. Every experience I had was a one in a lifetime and I would strongly recommend using them if you are considering doing a trek in Nepal. Khum and Hari were fantastic people to meet and trek with and made each experience that bit more memorable, very friendly and made each trip special from the airport pick up to the drop off.
Simon Payne
It was the perfect adventure
Unique Adventure is definitely worth recommending. Nice and extremely helpful people. Good organization, very customer focused and flexible. Without them, our trekking would not be so nice.

Experience of a Lifetime
Our Everest Base Camp trek with Unique Adventure International was an experience of a lifetime. The company looked after us well in Kathmandu and we met the owners of the company. On the tour, our guide Megendra was exactly what we wanted. He kept us up to date with the days plans, gave us different options for routes, found great tea houses for eating and stays. Plus we shared many laughs and had a great time. Highly recommended!
Todd Carswell
Experience of a lifetime - Unique
I had the privilege of doing the EBC trek during the month of Oct 2022. It was absolutely mind-blowing, given that it was my first to the Himalayas. Right from the time I landed at Lukla till back to Kathmandu, it was a ride that will give memories of a life-time. The breathtaking views, the long walks along forlorn mountains, the immersive experience of local cultures and cuisines and finally the first peep at the Mt. Everest; each worth every page in my diary, every GB in my phone that I will cherish carrying forever. But none of this could have been made possible without the wonderful trekking company that I associated myself with. Given that it was my first, I spent hours researching online, speaking to friends who’ve been there before to plan the trip. Eventually, after looking at the reviews, I chose Unique Adventure International as my trekking partner. I could not have been more correct with my choice. One of the biggest assets is Krishna, who manages the firm owned by his brother. My first message to them on WhatsApp elicited a response within 5 mins and that has been the norm throughout my journey. Umpteen queries and doubts were answered without a hint of frustration. Made me wonder if I was the only customer, but having spoken to others during the trek, I know that’s a customer service which is available to everyone. A few examples of going out of your way and “Customer delight” Bad weather led to us waiting for 2 days at the Ramechhap airport - Krishna kept me updated on the weather almost every hour and the chances to fly. At the end of 2 days with no end in sight, I was ready to cancel the trip and do the Annapurna Base Camp trek instead. He immediately arranged to change plans, booked bus tickets to Pokhara and sent a car to my Airport (which is 4 hrs by road from Kathmandu). Voila - the weather suddenly cleared and I instead flew for the EBC trek instead. Not a dime asked for the changes. For some reason - my cards didn’t seem to work in Lukla and I needed some money having not planned for the delays at Ramechhap. Krishna arranged for some money to be given to me through a hotelier. All I had to do was to pay Krishna back after I return to Kathmandu. He works on trust and providing an issue-free trip to his customers, which goes a long way in making a difficult trek pleasant. Nuwang Sherpa was my guide and once again, I lucked out. A down-to-earth, simple, rustic man born and brought up in the same mountains, he was the guide in the truest sense of the word. He ensured that I have a comfortable trek by arranging accommodation at the best hotels on the trek, guiding me on the dos and donts, customising the trek based on my strengths and abilities, and providing insights all along on the culture, cuisine around the valley. If you are a first-timer, you have no clue what awaits you on the trek. You would love to have someone who can guide you through those uncertainties, yet let you have an experience that is unique for you! Nuwang was just that guy! There are many guides available, but please do ask for a Sherpa (the true locals) to guide you; in particular, ask for Nuwang Sherpa and you will not be disappointed!

Kind hearted and caring peoples
I did the everest base camp trek...i had altitude sickness at dingboche...my guide megendra was caring enough to take care of me all the way till the helicopter took me away....mr khum was present at the hospital to make sure im okay..n hes there again to make sure im properly discharge...they realli are kind hearted souls...
Nur Allfian
EBC splendid views and trek
Great trek. Sometimes challenging from a physical and mental perspective, but absolutely rewarding. Panoramas by day and by night are literally... over the top! Even if you are an experienced trekker, prepare for altitude sickness and go! Ruplal (guide) and Gopal (porter) were extremely careful of all the aspects of the trek, including distances, food, accommodations, clothes, backpacks, water, etc. Their experience is invaluable from a safety perspective and Ruplal has been able to arrange tiny flexible changes to the itinerary if/when requested. Khum was helpful end-to-end, with airport or hotel pickup, clarifications, etc. Nothing was left to doubt. All good.
Pasquale Campitiello
Once in a lifetime experience
It was the second time I travelled to Nepal and I used the services of Unique Adventure and similar as previous time, they continued to surprise me with their professionalism and hospitality. From the moment we booked the trek, to the very nice airport welcoming done by Khum in person (the owner of the agency), the care and support our guide (Ramesh) provided to us during the entire trip… everything was great. All the trip was extremely well organized, Khum was very responsive and supportive all the time, while Ramesh was the best guide we could have had. From the moment we meet Ramesh, until the moment we left Kathmandu he did everything to make us feel good and comfortable. I appreciated a lot his care during the trip - he checked all the time our health and how we are feeling, he gave us good recommendations regarding what to do to reduce the altitude sickness as much as possible (I highly recommend to listed to his advice), he supported me when I felt extremely tired and unable to move forward and thanks to him I succeeded to reach the EBC and to see the Mount Everest. I also liked that every time it was possible, he offered us the best accommodation option, as well as the fact that he was very careful in selecting places to eat - to avoid any unpleasant moments that might appear due to food that we might not tolerate. All in all, I would like to thank Unique Adventure and especially to Ramesh for their kind support in offering a unique experience in Nepal on the EBC trek.

Are you a fun of mountain trekking and you looking for some adventurous vacation, then you should go to Nepal and look for Unique Adventure! These guys will do the best they can to make your dream come true. Khum, the owner of the company, runs his business having as a priority the customers’ satisfaction. He welcomed us at the airport l, he answered exceptionally to all our questions, and introduced us to Nepal world. Ramesh was the best guide that we could have, he advised how to stay healthy throughout the entire trip, explained to us what we have seen, offered safest places to eat and best accommodation; he was shadow during the whole trip, doing everything he could to make our experience memorable. All in all they succeded to offer us a Unique Adventure!!! Thank you and keep up the good work!

Fantastico
Parto gol dire che non dimenticherò mai tutto ciò che ho vissuto. Ringrazio tantissimo l’azienda (Unique adventure international P. Ltd.) che mi ha permesso di vivere tutto questo. Ho prenotato il tour di 12 giorni del base camp Everest dall’Italia, sono stato seguito ogni secondo, il servizio è stato fantastico, tutto è andato alla perfezione. Sono rimasto colpito dall’attenzione e dalla cura di ogni particolare. Sono rimasto molto contento, la guida che mi ha permesso di arrivare all’EBC è stata fantastica, fin da subito si è instaurato un bel rapporto. Appena ho raggiunto quota 5640m mi sono sentito sul tetto del mondo, è stato magico. Grazie mille, vi consiglio di prenotare tramite quest’agenzia, penso sia la migliore di Katmandu.
Simone Lo Schiavo
Right from pick up to drop off, all services including hotel stays and food was met to expectations. The trek in itself is a once in a lifetime experience.

From the moment we decided to embark on this adventure, the booking process with Unique Travel Adventure was seamless and stress-free. The staff was incredibly helpful, promptly addressing all our inquiries and ensuring we felt well-prepared for the trek ahead. Our guide, Kamal, was an absolute gem. His expertise, enthusiasm, and genuine passion for the region made our trek all the more enriching. He not only navigated the challenging terrain with ease but also shared fascinating insights into the local culture and history, adding a unique dimension to our journey. The level of organization demonstrated by Unique Travel Adventure was exemplary. Accommodations along the trek were comfortable, meals were delicious and nourishing, and the entire itinerary was well-paced, allowing us to acclimatize properly while still enjoying the breathtaking landscapes. What stood out the most was the personalized attention and care we received throughout the trek. The team's dedication to ensuring our safety, comfort, and enjoyment was evident at every step.

We wholeheartedly recommend Unique Travel Adventure to anyone seeking an unparalleled trekking experience. Thank you once again for making our Everest Base Camp trek an adventure of a lifetime.

Well worth the trek
I'd been wanting to do the Everest Base Camp for a long time. Unique Adventures made sure everything went smoothly from start to finish. There were four of us on the trek, with two porters who did a fantastic job of carrying our bags from one stop to the next, leaving us with just lighter daypacks to carry, and our guide Nuri who did an excellent job of showing us the way and keeping us all safe. The scenery was spectacular, from pine forests and clear rivers that ran through ravines, to ice covered slopes as we neared base camp. Much recommended.
