THE RAW HIMALAYAN EXPERIENCE

Our minimalist approach to the Everest Base Camp trek puts you in control of your experience while keeping costs down.

We focus solely on providing experienced Sherpas and porters instead of profiting off additional inclusions like flights, accommodations, and meals into a package, allowing you to customize the rest of your journey to fit your needs and budget.

By stripping away unnecessary costs, we ensure that more of your money goes directly to the Sherpas and porters who make your trek possible, while giving you the freedom to plan the adventure that suits you best.

YOUR ADVENTURE, YOUR WAY
GUIDED BY SHERPAS, INSPIRED BY TRADITION

Our team of expert Sherpas hails from Lukla and other regions of the Khumbu Pasang Lhamu—areas that have shaped generations of skilled mountaineers.

Growing up in the shadow of the mighty Himalayas, our Sherpas are intimately familiar with the terrain, weather, and challenges that come with trekking to Everest Base Camp.

It’s an opportunity to immerse yourself in the rich culture of the Himalayas with the custodians of the region’s centuries-old traditions, Buddhist heritage, and deep spiritual connection to the mountains.
