Everest Basecamp Challenge Tea House Trek  - 13 Days Trekking
   

Visiting Nepal in itself is an amazing experience due to the people and it's cultures but to trek to the foot of the highest mountain in the world makes this trip one of a lifetime!

It is a journey of discovery and constant amazement which will leave you with fantastic memories for many years.

Raising money for charity is a truely rewarding experience and one where many individuals benefit but to do it in a third world country the local communities greatly benefit from the much needed income generated by our trekking clients.
