With the demand of the trail and flow of trekkers, the domestic airport to Lukla has been renovated with multiple airlines operating early morning flights to Lukla and also local and federal government promoting the local Sherpa community to host lodges and tea houses to welcome foreign travellers.

Apart from all these, there are police check-point and military bases in the Everest region to check illegal activities and also to help trekkers in the time of natural calamities, avalanches, etc. so that they are safely rescued during an unpredictable emergency.

There is multiple notice board to give detailed information about the trial and also a possible danger that might occur.

To welcome trekkers multiple lodges and tea houses exist and the staff is well-trained with numerous dishes of trekkers' choices. ATM, Banks, Bars, Restaurants, Wi-Fi, Hospitals, Post office, etc also exist in multiple overnight spots. All these facilities make Everest Trek a safe and fabulous trail into the Himalayas.

Is Budget Trek to Everest worth trekking?

The first question which might arise here is why budget Everest trek at a reasonable price. This is mainly to give you freedom of choice for all your expenditure on the mountain.

Budget Everest Trek is a new concept of Discover Altitude and in a short span of time gained popularity with multiple trekkers preferred to select this program because it provides every individual trekker to select dishes of their choice, this may be of budget price or expenses.

Trekking into the Himalayas with a guide-specified food menu might be boring to many, eating Dal-Bhat every day throughout the trek might not be your interest. So, to provide you freedom for all foodies, we give you freedom of selection throughout the trial.

Where to stay during Budget Everest Trek?

Some decades ago trekking into the Himalayas of Nepal was not an easy thing to do mainly during the peak trekking season. This was due to limited numbers of lodges and tea houses, as during high trekking season many trekkers were not able to find room to stay.

Now, this is history, there are a sufficient amount of Tea houses and lodges throughout the Everest trek. Trekkers will have multiple choices of rooms and lodges as well.

Apart from this, in Lukla and Namche Bazaar, there are superb hotels with attach-bathroom facilities along with different restaurants and bars with live music to entertain travellers. Along with ATMs, hospitals, Banks, etc. many tea houses and lodges, restaurants, and bars do accept credit cards as well.

So, nothing to worry about where to stay and the possibility of the scarcity of room.

Trip to Everest Base Camp

This was my first trip to Nepal ...heard lots of exciting stories from my parents who have been to Nepal for the Annapurna base camp trek in 2008...Kumar was their guide ...now he has been operating his Trekking agency named Discover Altitude Treks.
With my parent's advice, I booked a solo trip to Nepal for the Everest base camp trek...
Kumar personally came to pick me up at the airport...had a lovely typical welcome from him... the evening we had dinner and he briefly told me everything thing related to my trek and the gear required..
Was excited to be with kumar for the trek...next day had a wonderful experience at the dangerous airport of Lukla...
Although I was worried about Altitude sickness...but was lucky as kumar told me do's and don't in high altitudes.
Finally, I made it to the base of Mt Everest and also Kalaphattar...now back to home in Australia...
Thanks to Kumar and his team of Discover Altitude for taking care and making sure that my dream of being at the base camp is accomplished.
Many many thanks and highly recommend these guys...and thanks to my parents for the best advice.

Everest base camp trek

I along with 5 other friends wanted to visit Nepal for Everest Base Camp Trek and with google, we found Discover Altitude as popular trekking and tour operating company run by experts. We decided to choose their expertise and we were right with our choice. Finally, we booked our EBC trek for August's first week. We were warmly welcomed at the airport in Kathmandu. Experienced fantastic city sightseeing with Kumar and started our dream journey to Everest with a fantastic guide and one of the founders of Discover Altitude Mr.Narayan.he was superb with his knowledge about the Himalayas and very well experienced and renowned with the local dwellers. He helped us a lot in such an altitude and took great care of us no matter how small it was. He wanted us to reach the base camp of Mt.Everest in an easy and relaxing way without any health issues and we did. Thanks to the entire team of Discover Altitude for their effort, help, and support..highly recommended this guy. and we will never hesitate to take them the second time for the Manaslu trek.

Highly experienced and superb team

I was looking for the trip which is far from the manmade concrete forests and so-called developed city and culture. After some research found Discover Altitude a local based travel company and had short and sweet inquiries with the MD Kumar Lamsal excellent in understanding our interest and recommended us to do Everest Base Camp Trek.
We accepted but with some hesitation and worrying about high altitude we flew to Kathmandu and Kumar was there to welcome us. The very next day we had excellent city tour guided by Kumar himself and we were Enlighted with the culture history and religion of Nepal. Never to miss this, highly recommended. We flew to Lukla and started our trek with Narayan as our Guide. We had excellent experience and reached EBC with 2 extra days of acclimatization.
Throughout the trek we had the magnificent view of the Himalayas, flora and fauna, Sherpas hospitalities, religion, culture. Narayan was the fantastic trekking guide with almost two decades of experience, he has huge knowledge about the Himalayas and helped us by providing comfortable lodge and tea house. And he was more like a mother he took care of us and made sure we were physically fit with the altitude.
Thanks to Discover Altitude and the team, we will be back for the next trip very soon.
Highly recommended Discover Altitude as a travel consultant.

Amazing trek, best guide and team

If you are thinking of trekking in this part of the world look no further than this company formed by our guide from our Everest base camp trek, Narayan and his partners.

We met Narayan in 2018 and couldn’t have been luckier with our choice of guide, his knowledge, skills, love and respect of his country and its inhabitants is amazing and it really made our trek, his attention to detail in making sure that each of us were comfortable at all times was very reassuring.

He and his team walked with each of us at all stages, medical checks, food, accommodation, safety, nothing left out, he even assisted other parties and was training some of his porters to be guides at the same time!

The trip really was one of the best things I have ever done on my travels, and yes Narayan, Annapurna is still in my list so I will be in touch again soon, wishing you all the best with your new company, I am sure you will make it a success, take care my friend, love to your family. Rich

EBC with Discover Altitude, perfect adventure

Discover Altitude was extremely helpful from start to finish!
Friends of ours suggested using Narayan and his services and after completion of the trip we are happy to say: it was perfect!
You can tell that he has 20+ years of experience trekking up to the EBC aa he knows EVERYTHING from lodges, cafes, and the surrounding places
Being fluent in English, he would give every detail of the mountain peaks, their heights, and how and when they were first summited.
What is extraordinary was the way Narayan looked after our group and provided extra services that aren’t easy to get in those remote locations.
He went out of his way to make sure we were well cared for and it was an experience of a lifetime we will never forget.

Trekking to Mt. Everest Base Camp is neither too hard nor too easy. It is a moderate hike with a steady-going uphill into the Himalayas with some acclimatization days. It takes 8 days to reach the base camp from the main city of Kathmandu with 2 extra days to acclimatize.

Q3. Do we need special training for EBC Trek?

If trekkers are physically fit for 5-7 hours of hike every day, we don’t need any prior training for the base camp trek. Physical exercise like swimming, jogging, hiking, etc will definitely help to increase stamina for the base camp trek.

Q4. Is Wi-Fi available in EBC Trek?

Yes, Wifi is available in major areas of the base camp trek but in some areas, we won’t be able to find Wifi, mainly in the high camp areas. Trekkers can use mobile data to use the internet and sim cards are easily available.

Q5. Do we have internet access in EBC Trek?

Wifi is available in many areas, some lodges provide free Wifi and some charge nominal fees. As we ascend higher Wifi is not possible but we can use mobile data to operate internet access.

Q6. How are foods in EBC Trek?

Foods in the base camp trek are hygienic with multiple choices from the menu. Food varies from Nepali to Indian to Continental to Chinese to Italian etc. trekkers can choose foods according to their interests and budget

Q7. Can we drink normal water during EBC trek?

Drinking normal water is not recommended in the EBC trek, but local guides and porters do. It depends upon trekkers' immune power to digest the snow-melted water. So, to get rid of any contaminated water diseases it will be best to use water purifying tablets to purify water before drinking.
