There are so many interesting things to do in this 18 days’ Everest Base Camp – Cho La (pass) and – Gokyo Valley trek. It includes two main valleys of the Khumbu Region to explore each with spectacular mountain scenery, lifetime experience of three glaciers walks, visit to some of the biggest Sherpa villages and pay a visit to the most respected Buddhist monastery in the area. This trip brings you to see the place where the Mt. Everest stands up at and how mightily it rises all the way to the summit. We also see the top of Mt. Everest from the closest possible view point but without technical climbing. The extended section of Cho La (5420m/17783ft) can give you an adrenaline check along with another new vistas opening up before you. And this part is much more lovely with the great views as well as spiritual as it has the presence of lakes! If you are fit and better acclimatized, you may be able to do in within 15 days also without hurting the motto of entire trip. The trip is started taking a flight from Kathmandu to Lukla (2830m) – Phakding (2640m/4hrs) with your guide. An exciting trans-Himalayan flight (just of 30 min) with morning glorious views over the snow mountains, jungles, waterfalls, hills, dunes etc. etc. Landing at Lukla, meet your porter and start the trek.
