Trekkers have the chance to visit Lhasa 'The Forgotten City', the famous Potala Palace and the fascinating Bakhor Bazaar before moving on to Xigatse and the Tashilumpo Monastery.  You will stay in Zegar for two days to acclimatise and then move on to Everest Base Camp.

As you travel across the Tibetan Plateau you will have a chance to see the extraordinary and wonderful temples of this country's Lamaist monks.  Although many were damaged during the 1965-1968 Cultural Revolution, a fund has been set up by the Tibetan government to restore and protect the country's heritage.

You can spend three nights at Base Camp which has incredible views of Everest and the surrounding peaks and where you are well looked after by our Sherpas.  Alternatively, you can spend an extra five days at this camp so as to visit Advanced Base Camp.

The return trip from Base Camp is across the spectacular Nyalam Thongla Pass by road, along a beautiful Nyalam gorge and into the town of Zangmu near the Nepalese border. You then cross the border and return to Kathmandu.
