Mission Summit Treks will provide the following luxury hotels in the Everest region:
You will also have a night stay in tea houses in Gorakshep (5140 m) and Phortse (3,950 m), the places where luxurious facilities are unavailable.
The tea houses in the trekking route provide the facility to charge our phone, camera, and other gadgets throughout the trek, but as we go to higher altitudes, it becomes more expensive to charge our phone. Charging will be available in the dining hall only, and we should pay an extra charge for charging the gadgets.
Dependency on solar and inverter for electricity is the reason behind the extra charge for charging the gadgets.
Taking a shower at a higher altitude will be risky, as the temperature will be very low. The frozen water at higher altitudes sometimes makes it difficult to take a shower. Hot showers are available up to Lobuche only.
The company will provide breakfast, lunch, and dinner in the Everest Luxury Trek package. We can get Tibetan, Nepali, Chinese, and Indian food varieties in the Everest region. The food of your choice can be chosen from the menu. The best food we prefer is Nepali Thali (dal, rice, curry, pickles, salad, and papad), as it contains a complete, balanced diet. You can also get pizza, spaghetti, momo, chowmein, noodles, Tibetan bread, and eggs in your meal.
Breakfast includes tea or coffee, Tibetan bread, egg, curry, jam or butter, porridge, muesli, or other items of your choice from the menu. At lunch and dinner, you can also choose food from the menu. Most of the menu in each hotel includes Nepali thali, chowmein, momo, pizza, spaghetti, bread items, pasta, popcorn, fried rice and many more.
The company will provide mineral water throughout the trek. A water bottle is essential for each person, and one should remember to fill the bottle before leaving the hotel in each resting place. At a higher altitude, we may have to pay an extra charge for hot water.
During times of emergencies like acute altitude sickness or a natural calamity, you might have to immediately depart in a helicopter. The cost of such evacuation is covered by travel insurance that needs to be purchased before you start the trek.

Leaving the beauty of Phakding, we will start our hiking towards Namche Bazzar after having a delicious breakfast. Walking through the rhododendron forest, suspension bridges, including the Hillary Suspension Bridge (the highest suspension bridge), Monjo village, Jorsale, and the Pine Trail, we will reach Namche Bazaar. The trekking route to Namche is moderately difficult, with more ascents. We will take a tea break, lunch break, and rest on the trail after getting tired. We will start early so that we can walk slowly and enjoy the nature. Our guide will follow your walking pace and suggest walking at an easy pace to maintain comfort.

Mount Everest, Nupste, Lhotse Shar, Ama Dablam, Tabuche, Cholache, Kusum Khangaru, Khangteka, and Thamsherkhu standing in alignment give a wonderful scenario.
After around 2 hours of walking, we will rest in the Everest View Hotel.
Night stay in the Everest View Hotel.
We will leave the Everest View hotel and trek towards Debuche after having breakfast. The trail follows neither steep downhill nor difficult uphill; thus, the trail to Debuche via Tengboche is considered the best trail of the Everest base camp trek.
The rhododendron forest, the flowing river on the base of the mountain, and the mane and chorten on the path make our eyes busy viewing its beauty. The view of the white mountain ranges, along with Mt. Everest, becomes closer as we walk forward.
We will reach Debuche after walking for around five hours, passing Kaynjuma, Phungi Thanga, and Tengboche—one of the oldest and most powerful monasteries in the Everest region.
Night stay in Rivendell Lodge.
Today we will cross 4000 m altitude and reach to new destination, Dingboche (4410 m). After having breakfast, we will descend downward to a small spring and cross the suspension bridge. Uphills with junipers and rhododendrons of small height fascinate our trail. The greatest permanent Sherpa village, named Pangboche, became our resting zone after walking uphill for a few hours.
We will reach Somare by walking through Pangboche and crossing the Imja stream. As we walk forward, the Himalayan view of Nuptse, Lhotse, and Ama Dablam attracts us and demands photographs and videos.

We can enjoy yak farms, prayer wheels, and stone-decorated Dingboche.
Night stay in Summit Hotel.
As we will be at an altitude above 4000 m while reaching Dingboche, our body needs enough rest. To acclimatize the body against increasing altitude with decreasing air pressure and prevent altitude sickness, we will stay in Dingboche. Thus, on the eighth day, we will have a rest in Dingboche. After having breakfast, we will have a short trek to Nagarjun Hill to view the beauty of Mt. Makalu,, Ama Dablam, and different peaks of the Everest region.
After having lunch, we can walk a few hours to Chukhung or stay in a hotel to get enough rest. Chhukung is near the base of Island Peak, so if you have an additional day in Nepal, then you can also climb Island Peak and create memories.
Night stay at Summit Hotel.
We will carry our backpacks and walk towards Thukla. After walking uphill for a few hours, we will reach Thukla and have lunch. The trail from Thukla is easy; we can enjoy the view of the yak kharka, and the Himalayan cow yak makes the place more beautiful. The grazing yak, mountain goats, and Himalayan range attract our attention. After having lunch in Thukla, we will reach the Thukla pass, where the monuments of climbers who lost their lives during the Mount Everest expedition remind us of their adventure. The rocky trail to Lobuche is comparatively easy. We should walk slowly to prevent altitude sickness.
Finally, we will reach Lobuche, enjoying the nature of the Khumbu region.
Night stay at the Himalayan Eco Lodge.
After having breakfast, we will head towards Gorak Shep, the last resting place before reaching base camp. The beauty of the place and excitement to reach the base of Mount Everest add energy to us.

Changaste, Mount Pumori, Mt. Everest, and Lobuche Peak, we will reach Gorakshep (5140 m).
After having lunch in Gorakshep, we will rest for a while and walk towards Everest Base Camp. Around a two-hour walk from Gorekshep takes us to our dream destination. The long journey started in Kathmandu will reach its final point as we step onto Everest Base Camp.
The low temperature will not allow us to stay long at base camp. Thus, after spending about an hour, we will return to Gorekshep.
Night stay at the tea house of Gorekshep.
We will wake up very early in the morning to climb Kalapatthar and view the sunrise. The wonderful scenery of Mount Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse, Pumori, Lhola, Khumbuste, Changuste, Amadablam, and Lobuche Peak from Kalapatthar will be great to capture on our gadgets. After capturing the sunrise view and mountainous scenery, we will return to Gorekshep.
The trek towards lower altitude will begin as we check out from the tea house in Gorekshep. We will start our walk on the same path through which we came to Gorekshep. The mountainous view remains behind us and becomes far more distant as we move ahead towards Pheriche.
After walking for around 5 hours from Gorekshep, we will reach Pheriche. We can have a wonderful view of Mt. Amadablam, Lobuche Peak, Tabuche Peak, and Cholache Peak from Pheriche.

The Everest base camp trek is a moderate trek. The difficulty you may face in Everest Base Camp is altitude sickness. Your trekking starts from Lukla (2840m) and reaches up to Everest base camp (5,364m) within 8 days. The rising altitude from 2840 m to 5364 m is maximum and considered the main reason for altitude sickness.Physical fitness and proper preparation for a trek before 2 or 3 months are essential to tolerate altitude sickness.
