An English-speaking guide meets you at Tribhuvan International Airport and stays through the return flight. The minimum age is 13. 📋 Key Details Days: 8 days from Kathmandu Ages: 13 and up Flights: Kathmandu to Lukla and back, about 40 minutes each way Nights: Lodges in Phakding, Namche, and Lukla Pickup: Tribhuvan International Airport 🥾 What to Expect 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. 📍 Location 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. ✅ Prerequisites 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. 💛 Why Choose Us Short Khumbu weeks still need a guide who can hold a Lukla morning w… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included English-speaking guide Airport pickup and departure transfer Kathmandu hotel nights on days one and two Lodge nights in Phakding, Namche, and Lukla Kathmandu to Lukla return flights Valley sightseeing on day two Meals as listed on each day Farewell dinner with a cultural show ### What’s not included International flights and Nepal visa Meals on day one Hotel nights after you fly back from Lukla Trail snacks, extra drinks, and tips Travel insurance and emergency evacuation ### Kit list Walking boots Warm jacket and rain layer Daypack and water bottle Sun hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen Passport ## FAQs ### How is the eight-day trip paced? 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. ### Where do we sleep? You sleep in a three-star hotel in Kathmandu on the first two nights. On the trail you sleep in lodges at Phakding, Namche Bazaar (two nights), and Lukla. Lodge rooms are simple: a bed, blankets, and a dining room. Namche sits high enough that the evening is cold. Bring a warm layer. The last two nights in the city are not included after you fly back from Lukla. ### How fit do I need to be? The minimum age is 13. You should be happy walking six to eight hours on a mountain path, then sleeping in lodges for four nights. You do not need previous high-altitude trekking. The acclimatisation day in Namche is there so your body can settle before you walk down. Tell us about any heart or lung condition when you book. ### Are the Lukla flights included? 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. Lukla flights depend on visibility. If cloud sits on the hill, your guide will hold you in Kathmandu or Lukla and move the departure when the pilots can fly. ### What will we see in Kathmandu and Namche? Day two is a guided drive to Pashupatinath, Swayambhunath, Boudhanath, and Kathmandu Durbar Square. Day five is an acclimatisation walk in the villages around Namche Bazaar. Namche is a Sherpa town at the gate of the Khumbu, with gompas served by lamas, monks, and nuns. You'll have time in the lanes and viewpoints above the bazaar. ### Which meals are included? Breakfast is included on the hotel and lodge days after arrival. Lunch and dinner are included on the trail days. Day one meals are not included. The farewell dinner in Kathmandu, with a cultural show, is included after you fly back from Lukla. Trail snacks, extra drinks, and tips are your own. Tell us about dietary needs when you book. ### What should I pack? Bring walking boots, a warm jacket, a rain layer, a daypack, water, sun protection, and your passport. Layers help in Namche in the evening. Keep luggage light for the Lukla aircraft. A small daypack holds water and a spare layer on the walking hours. ### Can I cancel? 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. ### Where do we meet? A representative meets you at Tribhuvan International Airport on day one and takes you to the hotel. The last morning is a transfer back to the same airport. Have your flight details ready when you book. If you are already in a Kathmandu hotel, tell us so we can collect you there. ### Is a certificate included? This is a guided lodge walk with Kathmandu sightseeing, not a qualification course. You will not receive a trekking award. 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. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/0b66e444-a1cd-4617-b67c-d07247902404-1.jpeg - **Gallery image count**: 4 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
