A highlight is the Dumji and Mani Rimdu Festival at Tengboche Monastery, held annually in October or November. This vibrant celebration features sacred dances and colourful ceremonies, providing insight into Sherpa culture.Buddhism, a central pillar of Sherpa culture, is beautifully woven into the fabric of the Trek. It's evident in the monasteries, prayer flags, and Mani walls that dot the route. Visitors are not just spectators but can actively participate in Buddhist rituals, fostering a deeper understanding of Sherpa spirituality and their profound connection to nature. In their harmonious coexistence with nature, Sherpas practice sustainable living through eco-friendly methods, including the use of yak dung as fuel and effective waste management. These practices, born out of necessity and deep respect for the environment, are a testament to the Sherpas' ingenuity and their role as responsible stewards of the land. It's a practice that inspires respect and admiration. People and Hospitality:Nepal is a country where warm hospitality and incredible values are not just customs but deeply ingrained parts of its culture.

This tradition of hospitality, deeply rooted in Hinduism and Buddhism, as well as traditional customs, views guests as blessings and treats them with utmost respect, generosity, and kindness.The Sherpa people, an indigenous ethnic group with a unique blend of Tibetan Buddhism and ancient Bon rituals, embody these values. Residing in the upper Khumbu area, they welcome guests with a distinct warmth and an unwavering spirit of hospitality, marked by their renowned honesty and loyalty.Advantage book with Asiana Treks and Tours: Private transportation for airport transfers to and from your hotel.Feel free to connect via Facebook or online if you'd like to discuss the trip.Last-minute booking at your hotel at a suitable time after your arrival.Easy booking and reservation system.Multi-channel communication via Email, WhatsApp, Facebook, Viber, Skype, and 24/7 phone communication at +977-9851076270Free excess luggage storage during the TrekOximeters measure blood oxygen saturation, enabling early detection of altitude sickness at high altitudes.Medical kits along the Trek and hot airbags are available in winterArrange sleeping bags, duffel bags, down jackets, and walking poles if you don't have your own.Trekking Start: If you miss the regular trip briefing, don't worry.

Only NPR is accepted in Nepal, so it's best to bring cash to facilitate transactions more easily.

We also recommend carrying a small backpack for your valuables and important documents. You can leave extra Luggage at our office for free and at a hotel in Pokhara, Namche, etc.Accommodation:Accommodation during the Everest Base Camp Trek varies. Along the trekking route, you'll stay in guest houses, commonly known as teahouses. These basic lodges offer rooms, dining areas, and toilets. The quality of guest houses varies, but they remain affordable and convenient for trekkers. Rooms typically feature twin or bunk beds, and shared bathrooms are available. Blankets and pillows are also provided. Our company can offer a sleeping bag if you don't have one. You'll spend nine nights in lodges along the trekking route and three nights in a hotel in Kathmandu. Some places and lodges have attached bathrooms, while others offer simple yet clean rooms with shared facilities. We can arrange a solo trekking service if you're travelling solo. During the high season and in certain areas, availability may be limited; however, we do our best to accommodate you. In Kathmandu or Pokhara, your hotel room will have excellent amenities, including TV, 24/7 hot water, electricity, and laundry service.Meals during the trip:Eating well is essential since the EBC Trek takes you through the Himalayas. You'll have plenty of nutritious meals in the trekking regions, although the options won't be as varied as in the cities. You'll get fifteen breakfasts, eleven lunches, and ten dinners during the Trek. The menu includes local, Asian, and Western dishes, but it gets more straightforward as you climb higher. Try popular Nepali foods like lentils, rice, curry, dumplings, noodles, Spaghetti, and many more. We highly recommend consuming fresh vegetables and drinking liquids such as green tea, lemon tea, hot lemon, ginger tea, and garlic soup, especially at high altitudes. While non-vegetarian options are available during the Trek, we suggest avoiding them for hygiene reasons. It's also best to avoid dairy, cheese, alcohol, caffeine, and hot chocolate. Personal expenses, such as alcoholic beverages, additional drinks, and cafes, aren't included in the package.Meal TypeDetailsTotal Meals Provided15 breakfasts, 11 lunches, 10 dinnersCuisine OptionsLocal Nepali, Asian, and Western dishesCommon MealsDal Bhat ( lentils, rice, curry ), dumplings ( momos ),noodles, spaghetti, soupsRecommended FoodsFresh vegetables, garlic soup, energy - rich mealsRecommended DrinksGreen tea, lemon tea, hot lemon, ginger teaFoods to AvoidNon-vegetarian items ( for hygiene reasons ),dairy, cheese, caffeine, alcohol, hot chocolateMeal SimplicityMore variety in lower altitudes,simpler options at higher elevationsExcluded ExpensesAlcoholic drinks, extra beverages, speciality cafésDrinking water:Staying hydrated on the trail is essential, as dehydration can contribute to Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS). You should drink at least three litres of fluids daily.Using bottled water while hiking generates waste and reduces financial resources. Reusable water bottles are a more affordable and environmentally beneficial alternative to plastic bottles. You can now use them after filling them with hot water from the teahouse.Mountain water is generally pure, but it's always best to be cautious. Consider using a bottle with a Steripen or an in-built filtration system, such as LifeStraw. Water purification tablets are another reliable option. With these precautions, you can drink mountain water with confidence, knowing it's safe.Using chlorine or iodine tablets may change the taste of the water. To help mask the unpleasant taste, you can add flavoured electrolyte powder, which is easily available at a medical shop in Kathmandu. These powders enhance the flavour and replenish essential minerals like sodium, potassium, and magnesium, keeping you healthy and energised during your hike.Teahouses offer boiled drinking water for an additional cost, which increases as you climb higher. The kitchen staff will treat you and boil drinking water during the climb.Extra Personal Expenses:Your Trip covers most expenses during the Trek; however, you will need to spend money on additional accommodations and meals in Kathmandu, souvenirs, and beverages. We estimate that the cost of miscellaneous expenses is approximately USD 15-25 per trekking day. However, personal expenses depend on your Income, habits, and style.Toilet Facilities in Everest Base Camp Trekking:Most teahouses have Western-style flush toilets during mountain treks, especially at lower elevations. However, as you ascend, you'll find simple squat toilets along the trails and at teahouses at higher altitudes. These toilets usually have water or toilet paper, but it's a good idea to bring your toilet paper just in case. You can also use restrooms at nearby teahouses or find a private spot along the trekking routes.Internet Connectivity:While trekking in Nepal's Himalayan region, it's also a good idea to stay in touch with your family and friends. You can find internet access at teahouses and lodges, but it may be available at an additional cost. The signal may be weak due to the remote location. You can also get internet access using a local SIM card and data packages available at Kathmandu airport or nearby shops in Thamel and Pokhara. You'll have a passport-sized photo and a copy of your passport to get a SIM card. It's a good idea to compare prices and data packages from telecom companies like Ncell and Nepal Telecom before making a purchase. Knowing about the teahouse connectivity. Our guide will suggest connections for you. Electricity voltage and plugs:However, as of May 29, 2023, 95% of the Nepali population has access to electricity. Almost all popular trekking routes, teahouses, and lodges have electricity. However, some isolated and solo trekking tea houses in the jungle don't have electricity; most tea houses let travellers charge their devices for a small fee. The average electrical voltage in Nepal is 230 volts, with plug types like Type C, Type D, and Type M. Travellers should bring a suitable adapter and, if needed, a voltage converter for their electronic devices.Communication:The guesthouses in the trekking regions offer internet access. You can buy a SIM card at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu and Namche. However, the signal may need to be more assertive at high altitudes. Our office maintains regular contact with all trekking teams through the trek guide, checking in at least once daily to ensure everything proceeds as planned.Trip Extension:Suppose you have extra days in Nepal after the Trek. In that case, we can arrange a tour that includes an overnight stay at Nagarkot Balthali or any other location around Kathmandu and Chitwan, as well as activities such as jungle safaris, paragliding, rafting, canyoning, or other treks. Do not hesitate to inform us. We will create the best for you.Trek Difficulty:The Everest Base Camp trek offers a moderate yet challenging and enriching adventure. Your enjoyment of the trip will largely depend on your level of fitness. We recommend building stamina at least two weeks before the Trek. Activities include jogging, running, swimming, or taking long hikes for the journey ahead.Completing this Trek is achievable even if you're a beginner, although you must maintain a reasonable fitness level. Prior trekking experience is advantageous, although it is optional. All you need is the readiness to hike steadily for 4-8 hours, navigating tricky terrain.Suppose trekkers have pre-existing medical conditions, such as lung or heart diseases. In that case, they are advised to consult their physician before booking the Trek to ensure their safety and well-being throughout the journey.Trip Safety:We highly give top priority.

The tour gradually ascends from Kathmandu’s relatively low elevation (1300 meters) to the Everest Base Camp area (approximately 5200 meters on the Tibetan side), giving your body time to adjust and reducing the risk of altitude sickness.Key altitude points on the itinerary include:Kathmandu (1300 m) – Start at a comfortable, low altitude city.Lhasa (3650 m) – The first major stop, allowing time to acclimate.Gyantse (3950 m) and Xigatse (3900 m) – Moderate altitudes where further adjustment occurs.Tingri (4100 m) – Gateway to Everest, higher but still manageable with proper care.Ronbuk (4980 m) – The highest overnight stop, near Everest Base Camp.Everest Base Camp (5200+ m) – The pinnacle destination, reached by vehicle and brief walking.The gradual ascent profile is designed by Asiana Treks and Tours to ensure your body can adapt naturally. Staying hydrated, eating light meals, and resting during the initial days are emphasized. Guides monitor everyone for symptoms of altitude sickness and recommend slow movement and rest days if needed.Important altitude tips:Avoid alcohol and smoking at high altitudesDrink plenty of fluids and eat carbohydratesInform guides immediately if symptoms occurUse altitude medication if prescribedUnderstanding this altitude progression helps travelers prepare mentally and physically for a safe and rewarding journey.Why Choose Everest Base Camp Tour From Tibet?Choosing the Everest Base Camp Tour from Tibet with Asiana Treks and Tours offers several unique advantages compared to other Everest adventures. First, this tour makes the Everest Base Camp experience accessible without requiring the weeks of rigorous trekking that Nepal’s southern route demands. Instead, you travel by well-maintained roads and comfortable vehicles, making it ideal for travelers who want to experience Everest’s majesty without extreme physical strain.Another compelling reason is the cultural richness of Tibet.

The blend of breathtaking natural landscapes with deep spiritual and cultural experiences sets this tour apart.Additional reasons to choose this tour include:Experienced local guides fluent in English and knowledgeable about Tibetan cultureComprehensive package including flights, accommodation, permits, and transportWell-planned itinerary that balances adventure with rest and acclimatizationSmaller group sizes for personalized service and safetyOpportunity to see the less crowded north face of Everest and Tibetan plateauBy selecting Asiana Treks and Tours, travelers are assured a well-organized, enriching, and safe adventure to one of the world’s most iconic destinations.Preparing for Everest Base Camp Tour From TibetProper preparation is essential for making the most of your Everest Base Camp Tour from Tibet. Physically, while the tour requires less trekking, it does involve spending time at high altitudes, so cardiovascular fitness and overall good health are important. You don’t need to be an athlete, but regular walking, light hiking, and aerobic exercises in the weeks before the trip will help your body adjust more easily.Packing the right gear is also crucial. Essentials include warm, layered clothing suitable for cold mountain climates, sturdy walking shoes or boots, a good-quality sleeping bag (some accommodations may be basic at higher altitudes), sunglasses, sunscreen, and a hat. Trekking poles can help with balance on uneven terrain, especially near Everest Base Camp.Other preparation tips:Consult your doctor about altitude sickness medication and any health concernsArrange travel insurance with high-altitude coverageBring a good camera or smartphone to capture stunning landscapesPrepare mentally for variable weather and the remoteness of high-altitude regionsFamiliarize yourself with Tibetan customs and etiquette to enhance cultural experiencesAsiana Treks and Tours provides pre-trip briefings and detailed packing lists to ensure travelers are fully prepared and confident for the adventure ahead.What to Expect on the 11–13-Day Everest Base Camp Tour From Tibet AdventureThe 11 to 13-day Everest Base Camp Tour from Tibet is a blend of cultural exploration, breathtaking mountain scenery, and moderate high-altitude travel that leaves a lasting impression.
