The Everest Base Camp Panoramic Tour, despite being one of the highest treks in the world, does not require mountaineering skills. This trek takes you as close to the summit of Everest as many non-climbers can go for. This outstanding adventure is an incredible journey to the Base Camp and even higher up to 6,340m. as well as the base of the North Col. via the east Rongbuk Glacier.

Mt. Kailash in Tibet being the destination of this trek, the journey through Humla, Nepal’s highest northern most and most remote district is also culturally & scenically rewarding. As this area covered by this treks encompasses two countries and numerous ethnic groups and religion most places have two names.

After a one hour flight over Mt. Everest to Lhasa, we drive to Shigatse, Mt. Kailash and Lake Mansarovar westward through the Tibetan plateau. Driving across the Chang Tang Plain, we follow the trails of the ancient salt caravan route. At the foot of Mt. Kailash, we will perform the ancient rite of circumambulating known as “Parikrama”- a full circuit of the peak. After visiting Lake Mansarovar and traveling southward to Khasa, we return to Kathmandu via the Zhangmu border.

The breathtaking trans-himalayan flight from Kathmandu to Lhasa and the overland route from Lhasa to Nepal offer truly spectacular views of the Himalayas, mountain passes, ancient monasteries and fortresses from a bygone era. We begin our tour by exploring fabled Lhasa: the majestic Potala Palace towers over the entire Lhasa Valley. The Drepung monastery is the largest monastic university in Tibet; the Jokhang is the central cathedral; and the surrounding Barkhor market is bustling with pilgrims and traders Then we drive along the Yamdrok Tso Lake and Turquoise Lake to Gyantse to the Kumbum Stupa, a unique and magnificent 6 storey stupa consisting of 112 chapels, a Buddhist hall and a prayer hall.
