Anapurna circuit and everest base camp with gokyo- great experience and very well taken care of!!!
We did both treks within 40 days with some rest days in pokhara in between and a relax getaway at the end in nagarkot… Everything was very well taken care of by Jiban! Even before and after excursions in kathmandu! Our Guide Tony gave us a peaceful and worryfree experience. Reliable trekking company ready to make last minute arrangements with success!
Response from the operator: Thank you! Heina s for sharing your wonderful experience and completing both the Annapurna Circuit and the Everest Base Camp trek with us. Hope we will see you again in Nepal.

What can we say? Absolutely Amazing from start to finish. Delayed Planes for the first three days however the team and Tony, our amazing guide - came up with Plan B with no drama. An alternative drive was a little unexpected however interesting to experience. Other than this alternative start - the rest of our trip went smoothly and truly breathtaking. Tony explained and guided us information on route - his knowledge was second to none and if he didn’t know, he found out for us. We can not fault the process, the tour and the service throughout even before the trek - the home visit for our kit check etc. All accommodated to our needs! We sure shall remember our EBC Trek for many years to come. As we live here in Nepal, attached to the British Gurkhas Nepal, we shall be embracing many more trips during our two year stay. Thank you kindly to you all for making our experience a wonderful and memorable one. Jodie and Roly

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Everest Base Camp Trek - Hiking to Mt Everest: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kathmandu.
How much does Everest Base Camp Trek - Hiking to Mt Everest cost?
+
Prices start at $1,500 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 - Hiking to Mt Everest 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 - Hiking to Mt Everest worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 16 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 Everest Base Camp Trek - Hiking to Mt Everest?
+
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 - Hiking to Mt Everest 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 - Hiking to Mt Everest?
+
Around 6 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 - Hiking to Mt Everest 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.
