Why Choose Holy Kailash Tours for Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek
Everest Base Camp hiking normally involves staying in tea houses that only offer cold showers and sharing a small room (bunk) with people who snore! On our Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek, we have designed our itinerary to bypass some of what I just said! Over the last eleven years, Holy Kailash Tours have been conducting treks in the Khumbu area, and we are registered with the Nepal Tourism Board so that we are not resellers who do not have direct relations with their bookings.
It is the same mountain path that a couple of thousands of trekkers hike every summer, except that instead of staying in basic lodgers, our clients get to enjoy accommodations of hotel level with hot showers and private room (most nights) plus meals that are varied and not just dal bhat on regular basis.
Our trekking guides we have trained have been in the Khumbu region for a long time. They are familiar with the trail and can give accurate reports about weather as well. The lodge owners, whom they can name half of, are really close friends.
We keep groups small, normally to less than 12 travelers, so they can provide sufficient attention to each tourist in the group, and they know when someone is not doing well altitude-wise. You can choose to have a helicopter pick you up from Base Camp instead of hiking back to Kathmandu, which will only save you two days.
The cost of the luxury trek will be fixed at the time of your booking with no additional cost to be charged at the end of the hiking for permits. We can guarantee that throughout your entire journey you are getting a top-quality service from the Kathmandu office.
Not only during your booking, but you can also access them any time while you travel. It remains the same snow-capped mountain, and one can get the same panoramic views but with much better comforts; you enjoy yourself much more.
