Day 3: Trekking to the Base Camp

Today, my team and I begin our trek from Kathmandu to the Everest Base Camp. A small plane will take us to Lukla, a neighbouring town and major destination for any tourist planning to hike to Everest.

From Lukla, we will travel on foot. There are many towns along the way where we will stay the nights.
 
The climate of the region is relatively moderate but get's progressively colder as we progress higher and higher above sea level. This is by no means an easy trek but adventurous tourists will feel right at home; for tourists seeking a worry-free comfortable vacation experience, Kathmandu alone has plenty to offer.
