If you have trekking experience anywhere in the world then you can trek to Everest Base Camp. There is no such experience required. If you can walk up to 6-7 hours a day then you can easily trek to the base camp. It is better if you start taking energy boosting diets and doing some physical exercise a month before the trek. All you need to have is strong willingness and ability to overcome the challenges.
All meals are provided during the trek. Breakfast and dinner will be provided on our stay to the next destination where as we will have our lunch during our trails. We will also provide tea and coffees where we will have rest.

If you are travelling with us then you don’t have to worry about carrying your stuffs. Our porter will carry all your stuffs. We will provide you porter who will carry up to 15- 25kgs.
Travel insurance is compulsory for all our clients traveling with our company. The Nepalese Insurance company doesn’t have travel insurance for foreign people so we recommend you to bring the legal documents with you while coming to Nepal. Your travel insurance must cover the loss due to theft, injury, delay; inconveniences or any other and the company should not have any liabilities for your personal loss.
In some of the lodges and trekking houses they provide you the facility to charge your phones and cameras by taking a very small amount of charging fee. But some of the areas might have electricity problems so, we suggest you to bring extra batteries.
There isn’t any age limit to trek to Everest Base Camp. If your physical condition is good and if you have ability to walk for few hours for several days then you can easily trek to Everest Base Camp. It is better if you start preparing for the trek few months earlier by doing some exercises like running, skipping, jogging etc and also by taking some healthy and energy boosting diets. We also suggest you to consult to your doctor once before the trek.
The weather forecast of Lukla is beyond prediction. Thus, due to bad weather flight might be delayed for several days sometimes. If it disturbs your trip at the beginning then you are free to choose any other alternative trips. We will look for the best alternative for you taking into considerations of the whole group if it occurs during the trip. 15. Can I get a shower along the trek?There are shower facilities in guest houses and lodges. They have gas and solar heating systems. But in some of the villages they use fire wood to boil waters and provide buckets as shower facilities.
You can communicate with your friends and relatives. You can purchase local sim cards such as NTC, NCEll and use them to communicate and also you can use the internet. Only some of the areas might have network problems. Some of the lodges also have Wi-Fi facilities.
It is not compulsory to have a guide but it may not be safe at the higher elevations to travel alone. So, we recommend you to hire a guide and a porter. If you do so there are less chances of getting lost and you will get to know more about the places well. The guide will help to rescue you if you fall sick or injured during the trek.
Tipping is a way of showing gratitude and appreciation. Though it is not compulsory in Nepal. Your small appreciation to our guides, porters, drivers and other staffs will give some positive vibes towards their work.
If you travel with our guide then there is very less chance of getting lost. But if you are planning to travel alone then you might miss the way. There are so many confusing trials where we have to follow our guide carefully.
ATM machines are available in Lukla and Namche Bazaar. But we suggest you to carry some amount of cash with you because sometimes the machines might be out of service.
You will also get trekking instruments on rent in Kathmandu. But we think it is more convenient to use our own instruments. So we suggest you to bring your own instruments if possible or you can also purchase it in Nepal.
The documents and paper that are required to trek to Everest Base Camp are heath certificate, travel insurance, and PP size photos to obtain the trekking permits like TIMS (trekking information management system).

We contacted Kedar from Thailand a couple of days before leaving for Nepal to do Everest base camp trek. Based on the testimonial we saw on his website. Kedar was every bit as professional and helpful as we expected him to be. He took care of us while in Kathmandu helping us to buy whatever gear we need making arrangement of our ticket to Lukla as well organizing for us a porter to carry Shweat’s backpack.
Our experience with Balaram was very good. Shweta was a slow trekker, and Balaram was always patiently walking behind her. He would also call upfront to the next destination for the day and ensure that we have a room to stay. He was also very informed about mountains in the Everest region and serve as a Guide as well. Often times he would have a different opinion from us about the course of action for the day, but he did not impose it on us,. Also unlike several of the others porters we heard, about, balaram was an honest worker who always had interest at heart, at all times. We got a stock in Lukla for 05 days at the end of our Trip, and balaram stayed through it all (even though his contract had expired with us) till he sent us off from Lukla airport. We really appreciate having Balaram with us during the Entire trek. He was invaluable.
We would strongly recommend the Service from Balaram who work for Actual Adventure Pvt. Ltd with Kedar Neupane. For entire trekking in Nepal.
