Short Everest Base Camp Trek
Trip Overview
The 7-day Everest Base Camp trek is a short, luxurious, and carefully planned experience in the Himalaya. Everest Thrill has especially designed this trip for those who want to experience Everest comfortably, quickly, and safely.
Instead of trekking all the way to Everest Base Camp, you will slowly and gradually trek only to Namche Bazaar (3,440 m) in about 3 to 4 days. This journey offers a beautiful immersion into Sherpa culture, peaceful trails, and hospitable villages.
Highlights Of The Journey
The main highlights of the journey include:
- Thrilling Lukla Flight with scenic mountain range views.
- Hiking through the sherpa village and dense forest.
- Experience local culture, people, and customs during the journey.
- Witness stunning landscapes and the Himalayas views.
- Helicopter ride to Everest Base Camp with a close view of Everest, Ama Dablam, and Nuptse, etc.
Journey Experience
This trip has wise acclimatization plans and village tours that will not only match your health concerns but also provide wide enrichment in remote Nepal. The trek is totally rewarding; however, your experience becomes even more exciting from Namche Bazaar.
This package then lets you take a private helicopter flight that flies smoothly over deep valleys, glaciers, and famous villages. The helicopter gently lands at Everest Base Camp (5,364 m) and shows you amazing panoramic views from Kala Patthar (5,545 m).

Everest Thrill ensures safety at all stages of the journey with great care and professionalism.

Flights are operated strictly under aviation safety regulations and only in stable and clear weather conditions.
Before each flight, the helicopter is thoroughly inspected and carefully maintained by certified aeronautical engineers. Weather forecasts are closely and constantly monitored, and flights are delayed, adjusted, or canceled immediately if conditions are unsafe.
Besides, several other passenger-friendly flight practices are carried out. The altitude is gained slowly and steadily to minimize physical stress. Landing times at Everest Base Camp are carefully limited to ensure your well-being.
