Day 1. Kathmandu
Arrival in Kathmandu, introduction, check-in at the hotel. You will have the opportunity to relax after the journey, and then we will go to dinner at the famous historical restaurant at the Yak and Yeti Hotel. Evening walk around Kathmandu and off to bed - we have an early flight tomorrow!
Day 2. Flight to Everest + Gokyo
Today we have an amazing day - we are waiting for a flight to the highest peak of the world, the grandiose Everest. We'll fly through valleys and inaccessible rocky canyons, through several climatic zones, to reach Sagarmatha National Park and then to the majestic Khumbu Glacier. We will have several disembarks, first stopping at the panoramic Everest View Hotel for breakfast and coffee overlooking the “Roof of the World”. Then we will fly to the top of Kala Patar, from where one can see almost the best view available to a person without special mountaineering training. From there you have a stunning view of three eight-thousanders: Everest, Lhotse and Nuptse. From the examination room they will all be at your fingertips. Then we get into the helicopter again and fly over the Cho La pass (5420 meters) and go to the incredible turquoise lakes of Gokyo. Above them rises the peak of Gokyo Ri, from where you can see the fabulous colors of Lake Gokyo and another eight-thousander - Makalu. We go down, have lunch and head back to Kathmandu to digest these incredible emotions.
Day 3. Flight to Annapurna
The second famous location of our tour is the Annapurna Sanctuary, the legendary abode of the Hindu god Shiva. This place is located in a beautiful mountain amphitheater, surrounded on all sides by gigantic snowy peaks. We will walk between the peaks of Annapurna, each of which will take your breath away. We will see the divinely beautiful Machapuchre peak - along with the Matterhorn in Switzerland, considered one of the most beautiful peaks on the planet. We will visit the stupa installed here, dedicated to the famous Soviet climber Anatoly Boukreev. Then we leave Annapurna Base Camp and fly back to Kathmandu through evergreen jungles and dense tropical forests.
Day 4. Flight to Manang
Our third flight is to the famous settlement of Manang, located at an altitude of 3400 meters above sea level. It offers some of the best views in the Himalayas. You will have a few hours in Manang, and the opportunity to spend time based on your physical fitness. We will climb to an ancient stupa rising on the rocks above the village. There lives an old ascetic nun who will bless us on a safe journey. From her home, where we will be treated to herbal tea according to the old Nepalese tradition, incredible views of the Annapurna massif open up. For those who are not ready for a long climb, you can organize a visit to the oldest Buddhist monastery in the region, located 30 minutes on foot from the village. After lunch at one of the guest houses in the village, we head back to Kathmandu. (*In case of bad weather on one of the days, the routes of the 3rd and 4th days can be carried out on the same day, since these locations are located next to each other. The time spent at the locations does not decrease!*)
Day 5. Spare day in Kathmandu
Today we have a spare day in Kathmandu in case of bad weather and non-flights. The most interesting places in the capital of Nepal await you - we will go to the city of ancient masters Bhaktapur, famous for its unique wood carvings and temples, climb to the Swayambhunath temple on the top of the hill, which offers stunning views of the whole of Kathmandu, and then go to watch the sunset in a cafe above the stupa Buddhanath is the place where, according to legend, Siddhartha Gautama, the last Buddha, is buried. In the evening we head to Third Eye, a restaurant serving amazing local and Indian cuisine, to celebrate the end of our adventure.

Overnight stays will take place in Kathmandu in a comfortable hotel.
In order to get to Nepal, you will need to buy a plane ticket to the capital of the country - Kathmandu. We will meet you at the airport and take you to your hotel, where our tour will begin.
You need to arrive no later than the morning of the first day of the tour. You can fly to Kathmandu the day before the start of the tour, if you wish. The earlier you arrive, the more time you will have to rest after the flight, since on the second day of the tour early in the morning we will already have a departure to the protected area. You can fly back on the last day of the tour at any time convenient for you.
A visa is required, but there is no need to obtain one in advance. You will issue it directly at the airport upon arrival in Nepal.
No special equipment is required. But you need to take suitable clothing with you to make you as comfortable as possible in the mountains. You will find a complete list of equipment below on the page. You can purchase equipment either in advance or already on-site in Nepal, there are very good prices for these products.
Yes, in Nepal you can purchase SIM cards from local operators, which work quite well in the mountains. And most lodges have wi-fi, although not very fast.
We organize treks in Nepal during the high season - spring and autumn. At this time the weather is the best possible. All transitions, as a rule, are carried out in the first half of the day, since at this time there is little probability of rain or bad weather. Temperatures vary greatly during the day and at night - it is quite warm during the day up to noticeably higher altitudes. As the sun sets, the temperature drops sharply, so it is imperative to have warm clothes with you, which we indicate in the equipment list.
To make a reservation, you must make a prepayment of $600 per person from the cost of the tour. The remaining amount can be paid on the spot. Also for registration I will need from you: 1. Full names of all participants 2. Passport number 3. Email of all participants 4. Contact phone number of all participants
In case of refusal, a refund of the prepayment is possible if we find a replacement to take your place.
