The Everest Base Camp Trek starts more than one place like: Jiri, Salleri and Lukla. Most of people start from Lukla afterfly from Kathmandu but if people have enough time then they start from Tradition route Jiri or Salleri after long drive from Kathmandu. By flight tourist become bit worry about bad weather and highsickness due to lack of acclimatiztion.
If you are self confident then you can do on your on way to Everest Base Camp Trek by your own risk. But it is very worthey to do with professional guide for the safety and successful trip.
In mountain region weather would be very unpredictable as well..most of time weather is weather very challanging so limited time for EBC trek is riskey so using plane is hard as well .If you have time then better to do trek without using plane is very good during monson time.
One sharing potter is provided for two guests who carry 20 to 25 kg in the high altitudes during the Everest Base Camp Trek. If one guest need a guide and potter then we provude we provide one person who works both job guiding and carring in same budget and he can carry 10 to 12 Kg backpack of the guest. if guest demand seprate guide and potter both then need extra payment.
During The Everest Base Camp Trek Trek, normally you need two type of bags. One smal personal bag is carrying by yourself putting your important things like; passport, money, mobile etc and another big bag is giving to potter putting necessary trekking gears. which is maximum 10 to 12 kg of each person.

Altitude sickness is medical condition that can happen when you get rapid altitude gain then there is imbalance between atmospheric pressure and blood pressure. We get less amount of Oxygen when breath than lower altitude then our body get trouble to adjust in this altitude and this is called High Altitude Sickness. Headache, loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting, dizziness are the common symptoms of high altitude sickness that is call (AMS) and getting seriously worsen call (HAPE) and (HACE) which can be life threatening as well, if we do careless. Recognizing symptoms in time and descending to lower elevation is the key of the solution. Generally above 3000 m people start to feel altitude sickness so we should drink more and walk slow.
You should follow and respect all cultural rule while doing trekking in the mountain.
You shouls take permission before take picture of local people, cultural place and ceramoney, alwyas walk clockwise while walking in the temple and monastery, take up shoes before enter temple and local house, don't give money and cholacte to children without permission during trekking.
During the Everest Base Camp Trek, you should better to have vegeterain food because all meet suply from lower part by potter which has already affected by virus and vecteria so it is not really higine, eate at same tourist guest house and drink safety and mineral water and stop alcohal until complet trek and bring some emergency dry food as well.

Excellent Tour/Trekking Company
I have just arrived back after my second time with Hari and the Holiday Hiking Team. I can not recommend Holiday Hiking Team enough. Very easy to organise a trek with them and everything is handled and set up in an expert manner.
I have done the Everest region and Manaslu with Hari and both treks were great. I am even considering a 3rd trek in the future, and I will be using Holiday Hiking Team again for sure!

Once in a Lifetime Trip & Amazing Guide!
Our guide, Hari, made our trip to easy even from the planning stage so we could focus on having fun and get the most out of exploring Nepal. When we arrived in Kathmandu he helped us out at the airport right away and even gave us a few extra city tours the days before our trek! It really doesn't get better than traveling with a local, and Hari was the most friendly guide and willing to answer all our questions and teach us some of the language that we got to use on the rest of the trip! I would recommend Holiday Hiking Team to everyone! If you're reading these reviews, take my word for it that they really go above and beyond and your trip is in the best hands! We used them for the Everest Base camp trip, but it was so amazing I would go back and use them again for my next trek! Thank you Holiday Hiking Team!

Great trip to Everest Basecamp
Hari organised an A+ trip for us from start to finish to Mt Everest Basecamp. He arranged a great price for a guide, flights and accomodation, and went to great pains to ensure that the small details were right. I was greatly impressed by the care that he showed us when we had a few illness-related speed bumps along our hike, and I would recommend him to all of family and friends. Stick with Hari for a great trip!

Everest Base Camp Hike
This was my first ever solo travel experience and I had the most wonderful time! It is a 13 day trip to Everest Base Camp, walking through some of the worlds most breathtaking scenery. Hari sorted everything for me, from airport pickup to Lukla flights, meals and accomodation in the tea houses, he had it all organised. He even acted as a porter for some of my gear. It was all covered in the extremely reasonable price! Hari is also very knowledgeable about Nepalese culture, politics, religion and history so he answered all of my questions. I would definitely recommend him and am already planning my next hike with Holiday Hiking Team 😀

EBC
Just finished a trek up to Everest Base camp with Holiday Hiking Team. Hari was our guide - super helpful in all respects (before arriving until leaving), knew everything there was to know on the way, and does everything in his power for you to have the trip of a lifetime. If I am ever coming back to Nepal for a trek I will for sure give Holiday hiking team a call again.
