Combine rewarding community work with an incredible trek to Everest base camp for your complete Himalayan Adventure!
Starting in Kathmandu, the Himalayan capital of Nepal, you will spend your first week acclimatising, enjoying cultural visits around the city and most importantly, attending Nepali classes.
From Kathmandu you will travel into one of the rural valleys where you will work on the rural development project, before heading down to the Royal Chitwan National Park where we take you on an elephant-back safari to look for the endangered Bengal Tiger.
Trek to Everest Base Camp or Annapurna
On completion of the Training phase and the community projects we return to Kathmandu and the short flight to the start of our trek. For Everest, we use Government Sherpas and guides and head off from Lukla. Staying in Nepalese tea houses overnight we cross river valleys and trek through remote Nepalese villages, a unique opportunity to explore Nepalese Himalayas. The arrival at Everest provides the unique summit of this Expedition. The expedition concludes with a farewell feast back in Kathmandu.
