Eight days in the Khumbu from Kathmandu give you a valley sightseeing day, both Lukla flights, and lodge nights in Phakding and Namche Bazaar, with an acclimatisation walk above the Sherpa town. An English-speaking guide meets you at Tribhuvan International Airport and stays through the return flight. The minimum age is 13.
A representative meets you at Tribhuvan International Airport and takes you to a Kathmandu hotel. The next day is a guided drive to Pashupatinath, Swayambhunath, Boudhanath, and Kathmandu Durbar Square. Then you'll fly about 40 minutes to Lukla and walk about three hours to Phakding for the first lodge night.
The following day is about six hours up to Namche Bazaar, the Sherpa market town at the gate of the Khumbu. You'll spend an acclimatisation day walking the villages and viewpoints around Namche so your body can settle, then walk seven to eight hours back to Lukla.
You'll fly back to Kathmandu and sit down to a farewell dinner with a cultural show. The walking stays around Namche rather than going on to higher Khumbu camps. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are included on the trail days, and both Lukla flights are part of the trip. Hold on to your passport; Lukla flights need a clear morning.
Namche Bazaar hangs above the Dudh Koshi as the Sherpa market town at the gate of the Khumbu, with gompas in the lanes and viewpoints on the hillside. Phakding sits lower on the same river. Lukla is the mountain airfield at each end of the walking.
Kathmandu is the hotel city for the first two nights and the farewell evening, with the UNESCO valley sites on the sightseeing day. You start and finish at Tribhuvan International Airport unless you are already in a city hotel. Lukla flights need a clear morning.
Mountain paths of six to eight hours should feel manageable, then four lodge nights in a row. Previous high-altitude trekking is not required. The acclimatisation day in Namche is there so your body can settle before you walk down.
The minimum age is 13. Bring a passport and broken-in boots. Tell us about any heart or lung condition before you come. Namche evenings are cold. Lukla flights depend on visibility.
Short Khumbu weeks still need a guide who can hold a Lukla morning when cloud sits on the hill. Lodge beds in Phakding, Namche, and Lukla, both air tickets, the valley sightseeing day, and the farewell dinner are arranged before you leave the city, with an English-speaking guide from the airport through the Sherpa town.
The same Kathmandu team has been flying walkers into Lukla for more than two decades. If the airfield closes, the plan moves with you rather than leaving you at the domestic desk without a next morning.
A representative meets you at Tribhuvan International Airport and takes you to a three-star hotel in Kathmandu. The rest of the day is free. Meals are not included. You'll sleep at the hotel.
Your guide collects you at the hotel and drives you to Pashupatinath, Swayambhunath, Boudhanath, and Kathmandu Durbar Square. Breakfast is included. You'll sleep at the same hotel.

The first two nights are in a three-star hotel in Kathmandu, after airport pickup and the valley sightseeing day. Rooms are simple city hotel rooms with breakfast on the second morning.
On the trail you sleep in lodges at Phakding, Namche Bazaar for two nights, and Lukla. Expect a bed, blankets, and a dining room. Namche evenings are cold. The night after you fly back from Lukla is not included; we'll take you to a hotel for the farewell dinner, then to the airport the next morning.
Eight days from airport pickup to the departure transfer. Two nights are in a Kathmandu hotel, then you fly to Lukla, walk to Phakding and Namche Bazaar, spend an acclimatisation day in the Sherpa village, walk back to Lukla, and fly home for a farewell dinner.
Walking days are about three hours to Phakding, about six hours to Namche, and seven to eight hours back to Lukla. The Lukla flights are about 40 minutes each way.

Yes. The Kathmandu to Lukla flight and the return are part of the trip, about 40 minutes each way. We'll take you to the domestic terminal in the morning.

You can cancel up to 24 hours before the trip for a full refund, in line with the Flexible policy.
If the Lukla flight cannot leave, we'll work with you on a new morning. Mountain weather still decides the airfield.

Your English-speaking guide stays with you from the airport through Namche and the return flight. Follow their pace on the climb into the bazaar.
About the centre
Kathmandu
We'll take you into the Himalaya from our base in Lazimpat, Kathmandu, with guides who have been running treks, day hikes, and mountain flights from this valley for more than two decades. You'll find short walks on the rim of the city, multi-day lodge treks toward Annapurna and Everest, and days on the water or in the air around Pokhara.
We'll handle permits, lodge nights, and hotel pickup inside Kathmandu so you can focus on the trail. You'll travel with English-speaking guides, and the kit you need for the activity is included. We're members of the main Nepal and international travel associations, and part of every trip supports community and conservation work in the hills.
