The additional expenses deliver superior services along with decreased physical challenges that create powerful memory-oriented travel experiences.
Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek vs. Standard Trek
While following the same path, the Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek provides vastly different accommodation options alongside superior services and overall trek quality than the standard trek does.
Standard trekkers opt for budget-friendly accommodations in basic teahouses that provide shared facilities as they eat simple meals and perform minimal comfort-based treks.
Alongside standard luxury high-end lodges, people can find heated rooms with private facilities and premium dining facilities during luxury treks.
Along with luxurious services such as private guides and porter help, gourmet cuisine and helicopter transportation, the trek becomes more efficient and comfortable for trekkers.
Standard trekkers need between 12 and 14 days to complete which ends with returning to Lukla from Everest Base Camp. A luxury trek features helicopter service from Gorakshep, offering a stunning Himalayan flight and saving days of trekking.
The standard trek offers value for budget seekers but luxury trekking creates a perfect choice for travelers who wish to join convenience with personalized accommodations during their trip.
Even though the Everest Base Camp Luxury trek costs more it delivers both enjoyable travel conditions and premium service along with convenience through its premium facilities.

Travelers can use this high mountain pass to traverse between the Khumbu Valley and the scarcely explored Gokyo area. During the descent to Gokyo Valley one can admire the stunning turquoise waters of the highest freshwater lake, Gokyo Lake.
Trekkers who choose to climb Gokyo Ri will experience stunning views of Everest, Cho Oyu, Lhotse, and Makalu which gives them a special perspective of the Himalayas.
The trek back to Kathmandu becomes more convenient through a helicopter transport from Gokyo which avoids the prolonged route down to Lukla.
The smooth and time-efficient end to the trek combined with aerial views of glacier lakes and peaks in the Everest region becomes possible through helicopter transportation.
People seeking Himalayan adventures combined with luxurious comfort should experience the Ernest Base Camp Luxury Trek with Gokyo Lake and Cho La Pass.

Best trekking Company





Our Everest base camp luxury trek was the most memorable one. The team at Above the Himalayas did everything possible to make it the best experience. When visiting Kathmandu and the surrounding area, the tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable.
The hotel was super, and most of all, we had a great trekking experience. Thanks to our experienced guide and our friendly porter. We do not hesitate to recommend this company.
They are best for trekking in the Himalayas and visiting Nepal. They are well experienced, and the price was very reasonable for what we got.

Comfortable solo female trekker





I went on a trek through this company for my Everest base camp luxury trek. I was so happy with my experience! Puru was so quick to respond to our original inquiry.
Unlike all the other companies, my dad and I looked at, and were very responsive. All our many emails are full of questions from worried fathers and solo travelers.
My guide, Kamal, made me so comfortable. He made sure my accommodations exceeded expectations, and they did.
I will go back to Nepal and use Above the Himalayas again.

Above The Himalaya Trekking - Yes





Puru answered our 1,000 emails and adjusted our itinerary. He also organized so much for us when we made particular plans. We enjoy the program through the Everest base camp luxury trek with the high-end lodge.
Our guide, porter, hotel, flights, and everything for the trip. Afterward, we went on a tour of Bhutan, where you will get seamless airport pickups and drop-offs.
They provide us with comfortable accommodations. What more could you ask for? The Everest base camp luxury trek is our best trek so far.

Everest Base Camp Luxury best trekking holiday





I trekked with my father to the Everest Base Camp luxury trek at the beginning of Autumn Above the Himalayas. Puru could not have been more helpful before and during our time in Nepal.
He responded to all emails and was there to help us with anything we needed during our time in Kathmandu. The hotel he set us up in was comfortable and clean. I loved everything about our trek.
I couldn’t recommend enough our guide, the porter, or the Sherpa people. Our guide spoke English and knew so much about the trail. By the end of our trip, we were such a good team.
The tea houses were lovely, and the food was yummy! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would love to do it again in a heartbeat!

We had great hikes, and the accommodations were excellent and clean. I felt comfortable with the guides; they and the porters were helpful and part of our group. I will never forget my time in Nepal.

“Everest Base Camp luxury Trek Excellent”





Puru put together an excellent itinerary for us, and we had a fantastic time during the Everest base camp luxury trek. We booked our tour a few months in advance, and Puru was very responsive and helpful with our trip research.
Above the Himalayas, we picked up from the airport, assisted us with our supplies/gear rentals & had us thoroughly prepared to hit the mountains! Our 15-day Everest Base Camp Trek was spectacular.
They supplied us with a good guide and porter who were very kind, helpful, and accommodating.
Highly recommended

Amazing Everest luxury treking experience





Unique lifetime experience of Everest base camp luxury trek in a breathtaking environment.
Everything was well organized, and Mr. Puru was excellent and on top of the task for everything.
A great, experienced mountain guide, Mr.Suresh, guided us. And our big special thanks and namaste to our porters. We couldn’t do it without them since they carried our heaviest load.
We got their support along the way, making it safe and sound to Base camp. We can recommend them to all trekkers.

Everest base camp luxury trek and much more





“Finally, I fulfilled my dreams and visited the Himalayas. Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek was a logical choice. In November, a group of nine Croatian hikers organized the event.
Mr. Puru from Above the Himalayan Trekking was on top of the task. Nothing was impossible to organize, and everything was going so well. It was evident that Mr. Puru had a lot of influence and experience in this business.
During the 15-day Trek, they are joined by another experienced individual and his team. Our mountain guide, Mr. Suresh Adhikari, ensured everyone was well-acclimatized and safe.
In this group of nine, we all achieved our goals, and nobody was altitude-sick. Besides reaching EBC, we climbed two peaks above 5000 meters and visited many local attractions (museums, villages, monuments, historical and spiritual signs, etc.).
Thank you all for this once-in-a-lifetime experience. We recommend the Everest base camp luxury trek to everyone.”

Unforgetable Everest base camp luxury trek with Above The Himalaya Trekking





I have to give Mr. Puru 100% credit, as the owner & operator of this tourism business, for arranging a safe, comfortable, enjoyable, and unforgettable Everest base camp luxury trek.
I would recommend his company to any overseas tourist and trekker because Mr Puru is a reputable professional who offers the best value for money services.
He also can be trusted to flexibly deliver emergency helicopter evacuations, hospital admissions, capable & friendly guides, best porters, and suitable accommodation – all at reasonable prices.
Mr. Puru has access to a vast network of resources, which enables him to adapt to changes in trek plans, exchange foreign currencies at favorable rates, and arrange local tours without any difficulties.
We had no complaints and only benefitted from Mr Puru’s and his team’s high service standards. Thank you, and congratulations, Mr Puru.
