Tibet & Lhasa
What Our Client Says?
"I was so blown away, I made it my career"
Trekking to Everest Base Camp was a very long held ambition which I finally achieved three years ago. I was so blown away by my experience that, when I came back, I changed careers and joined Nepal Guide Treks & Expedition- the trekking company that I travelled with.
Now I spend my days talking to people about trekking holidays in the Himalaya, looking at photos from treks to Everest Base Camp and helping other trekkers achieve this fantastic goal. Of course, there are many other classic walks around the world but the Everest Base Camp trek remains the most iconic and desirable of all.
Now there are several variations on the classic route that can take you not only to Everest Base Camp, but also into the more remote areas of the Khumbu.
For that reason, it seemed like a good idea to set up a website to share my passion for the Everest Base Camp trek and the others in the region, along with useful information, helpful tips and some stunning images. So, now there's no reason for you not to put on those walking boots and start planning for the trek of your life.

Tibet Kharta Valley Trek
Trip Facts:
Activities : 15 day tibet lhasa tour with sightseeing and 3 night's accommodation with kathmandu city sightseeing.
Destination : Lhasa, Shigatse, Kharta valley, Pola Valley, EBC, Cho Oyu base camp
Trip Duration : 18 days
Group Size : Min. 2 / Max.20
Best Season : February, March, April, May, June, September, October, November & December.
Trip Grade :
Daily walking Hour: Approx. 4-6
The highest of the great mountains of the world seems to require single gesture of mastery in order to establish as the queen of them all, immense in its solitary and unrivalled supremacy. The remarkable spectacles offered by the icy mass of Everest, which loom over the desert highlands of Tibet are as enchanting today as they did since centuries.
Exploring the Kharta Valley was how Mallory's 1921 Everest Reconnaissance Expedition eventually realized how to climb Everest. They trekked from Sikkim, instead we drive to the last villages, beginning in the dry Kharta Valley and climb into lush scrub camping by alpine lakes. Over the first pass the panoramas open up, HUGE mountains litter the horizon. More pleasant trekking brings us to in your face Everest views and we actually stay at the normal Everest Base Camp as well as visiting Dza Rongphu (Rongbuk) Gompa.
