    Trek to Everest Base Camp

    Our 15-day trek to Everest Base Camp with Nepal Social Treks was an incredible experience from start to finish. A huge thank you to our amazing guide, Narayan. He kept us motivated, safe, and always in good spirits. Was such an awesome person to have guiding us. The itinerary was well paced, and the whole team including our amazing porters took great care of us throughout. Reaching Everest Base Camp was unforgettable, and we couldn’t have done it without them. Highly recommend Nepal Social Treks to anyone planning a trek in Nepal!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re really happy to hear you had such a great experience with Narayan and our team. Congratulations on reaching Everest Base Camp, and we hope to see you again for another adventure in Nepal! Warm Regards,

    Surreal Trip of a lifetime!

    My partner Noah and I, along with my parents just completed the 14-day EBC trek with Nepal Social Treks. This was a life-changing and surreal experience! Our guide, Narayan, was incredibly knowledgeable about the altitude, local and cultural context, and surrounding landscape. He was super hospitable, and respected the varied fitness levels ensuring that all of us were able to complete the trek safely and comfortably. When we wanted to amend plans due to weather conditions, Narayan was able to be flexible and create a new plan for us to reach EBC and return to Lukla within our schedule. Our porters, Bir Kaji and Bir Badur, were fantastic. Bir Badur was incredibly cheerful person who always had a smile on his face. While Bir Kaji was always there to lend a hand and give support. With there help it made the hike much easier. I admire their strength and hard-work. The Tea Houses, especially Namche Bazaar, were quite lovely. As you go up they do become a little bit more bare, however, the food was always amazing and such a variety for all tastes. The scenery—especially as we walked through Pangboche—was breathtaking. This was incredibly challenging and tiring in parts, but 100% worth it! If my partner and I come back to do ABC we will definitely hope to go with Narayan and Nepal Social Treks.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. We’re glad your Everest Base Camp trek was such a memorable and rewarding experience. It’s great to hear Narayan and the porter team supported you well throughout the journey and helped you complete the trek safely despite changing conditions. We’d be happy to welcome you again for the ABC trek in the future. Warm Regards,

    Trek to EBC

    Narayan our guide and our 2 porters where excellent. Highly recommend. . Some delay in the communication leading up to trip as the business operator Basu was away however, caught up in the weeks before the trip and all questions answered

    Response from the operator: Really appreciate your review! Great to hear everything went well with Narayan and the porters. Thanks for your understanding about the slight delay in communication. Warm Regards,

    Amazing lifetime experience

    We recently completed a private trek to EBC with Nepal Social. It was excellent. Our guide Narayan and our 2 porters Bir Badu and Bir Kaji made our trip such a great experience absolutely highlighted by getting to Base Camp to see the sun come out on Everest. Narayan was always so helpful, thought of every detail and made sure we had the best experience all the while doing it with the greatest sense of humour. He tried to accommodate all our requests and gave great ideas and alternatives which were sometimes even better than the planned itinerary. I would absolutely highly recommend Nepal Social.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re delighted to hear you had such a memorable Everest Base Camp trek with Narayan, Bir Badu, and Bir Kaji. We truly appreciate your recommendation and will be sure to share your feedback with the team. Hope to welcome you back to Nepal for another adventure! Warm regards,

    Nepal Social is the best choice

    I booked my trip through Nepalviaje (website in spanish) and from the first moment everything was perfect. Starting with Fernando that was answering really fast all our questions, when we arrive to Kathmandu the person waiting for us in the airport was absolutely fantastic, he wait over and hour for us cause it tooks a while to get out of the airport, the hotel for the first and last night is absolutely brilliant, when you arrive to the Office everything is super clear and they make you feel at home. The Trek is a experience of a lifetime, our guide Lhakpa IS the best guide ever and will not only guide you all the way to the base camp but show you things about culture and take care about every single details, lodges are always fantastic with a huge variaty of food. We made it with other girl and all of us reach EBC, Lhakpa will give you all the good advices to make it and the company will take care of everything, even the last day Basu(the manager of the company) call us to provide a helicopter service to come back to Kathmandu as the weather in Lukla was mean to be bad for a couple of days. 10/10 for this company and all the people involve on it

    Response from the operator: Dear David, We’re grateful for your review. Happy to hear our team made you feel at home and supported throughout the adventure. We’ll pass your compliments on to everyone involved. Congratulations on reaching Everest Base Camp. Warm Regards,

    15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kathmandu.

    How much does 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1,520 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kathmandu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek take?

    +

    Plan for about 360 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kathmandu is not rushed.

    Is 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 79 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 40 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kathmandu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 360-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek?

    +

    Around 14 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kathmandu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kathmandu and add a light layer if any part of the 360-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kathmandu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Kathmandu?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Kathmandu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kathmandu Sightseeing | UNESCO World Heritage sites Private/Group, Manaslu Circuit Trek, Manaslu Circuit Trek: Private Group & Discounte Price. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Kathmandu?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Kathmandu?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek?

    +

    Included: Two Way Domestic Flight from Kathmandu-Lukla-Kathmandu; Lunch; All Fees and Taxes; Dinner; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Unforeseeable Expenses incurred due to natural calamities and accidents; Personal Trekking gears and equipment; Personal Expenses; and Trekking porter. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek?

    +

    We will meet everyone at our office for trek briefing, however we can also pick up our guest from the Kathmandu airport or their hotels in Kathmandu as per request. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek offered in?

    +

    It is offered in German, Chinese, English, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.

    What do travelers say about 15 Days Private Everest Base Camp Trek?
