Awesome time!
My wife and I were looking to do EBC in April (6 days hike + helicopter down). The trip started off with some hiccups (fog delay) but Mani was able to solve the issue almost immediately. After that we stayed at some popular tea houses. Our guide and porter were also very nice. Overall couldn't be happier with this decision. Thank you!
Response from the operator: Dear Guest Good evening and Namaste from Mani Thank you very much for choosing our company for your holiday and appreciate your value of time to write us review. With Best Regards Mani

Father/Son Everest Base Camp Trek
I truly want to thank Mani (Owner/Operator), Binod (Our Guide), and Suray (Our Porter) for an incredible trip to Everest Base Camp, Chukkung Ri, and Kala Patthar. The memories created will be with my son and me for a lifetime. Everything from the initial contact and planning to the day to day support on the trail to getting us from Kathmandu and back was flawless, allowing us to make the most out of this epic trip. I highly recommend Mani’s business, Great Adventures. And I highly recommend our guide and porter. They made the time on the mountain an incredible experience for my son and me.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Everest Base Camp Trek 16 Days: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kathmandu.
How much does Everest Base Camp Trek 16 Days cost?
+
Prices start at $1,538 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 Everest Base Camp Trek 16 Days 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 Everest Base Camp Trek 16 Days worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 89 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 115 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Kathmandu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Everest Base Camp Trek 16 Days?
+
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 Everest Base Camp Trek 16 Days 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 Everest Base Camp Trek 16 Days?
+
Around 40 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 Everest Base Camp Trek 16 Days 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 Everest Base Camp Trek 16 Days?
+
Included: Private transportation. Not included: Dinner; and Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Everest Base Camp Trek 16 Days include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 40 listed pickup locations in and around Kathmandu. Be ready about 120 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Everest Base Camp Trek 16 Days offered in?
+
It is offered in Chinese, Japanese, English 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 Everest Base Camp Trek 16 Days?
+
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 Everest Base Camp Trek 16 Days wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap; and Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
