Everest Luxury Trek
The Everest Luxury Trek leads to Hotel Everest View, the world's highest hotel located in the Khumbu region of northeastern Nepal. The '8-day trip' provides breathtaking vistas of Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world, as well as panoramic views of the surrounding Himalayas. It offers a peek of the traditional Sherpa customs, cultures, and history by visiting their villages and monasteries. Trekking in the temperate environment of Sagarmatha National Park's subalpine terrain affords the opportunity to observe the park's unusual animals.
The trek route leads to the beginning of the well-known Everest trekking trek. After a picturesque flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, the trek to Phaking Village commences. From there, proceed to Namche Bazaar, the centre of tourism in Khumbu. The Hotel Everest View, which holds the 2004 Guinness Book World Record for being the highest hotel, is accessible by a climb. After taking in the sights of Mount Everest and the surrounding mountains, retrace your way back to Monjo village and then Lukla to catch a flight to Kathmandu.
The Everest Luxury Trek is an easy to moderate trek that reaches a maximum altitude of 3,880 meters and takes an average of five hours per day to complete. It is designed for novice and seasoned trekkers who wish to enjoy the actual splendor of the Everest region in a limited amount of time while traveling in style.

Guest Reviews

My dad and myself did plan to trek the Annapurna Circuit from Jagat to Jomsom and booked the trip via Raj and Getaway Nepal Adventure. While organizing everything in advance went smooth from the very beginning, we were amazed by the organisation of the whole trip once we arrived in Nepal - starting with a pick-up service in Kathmandu airport, also wisely chosing our guide and our porter (Manisha and Dai) which both were a perfect match to accompany us on our trekking. Both were very thoughtful and we felt like a companionship from the very beginning, but also very professional when it came to all concerns regarding the hike, like proper acclimatisation, the daily hike and everything besides. Overall organisation has been extraordinary and there hasn't been anything where Raj was not able to support (even after the trip has finished).
This really has been a once-in-a-lifetime trip and we were so happy to have this with Manisha and Dai. If ever planning to do a trekking in Nepal again (and we would love to do soon) we definitely would book with Raj again and his company one more time.

Raj and his team are awesome. Especially after seeing how other travel companies in Nepal have functioned, not only are they on top of everything, but the guides and porters working with the company are treated really well. The morning we were meant to leave for Lukla, the plane kept getting delayed. By 9 am our guides had a chopper organised to take us, where we later chatted to people who only got on one at around 2 pm and ended up hiking in the dark. We also saw multiple porters carrying more than one duffle bag, however, this company limits it to one, for the wellbeing of the porters. I cannot recommend this company enough.
