Camp Beneath the Stars on the Roof of the World
This is more than just a trip—it’s a once-in-a-lifetime journey to Mount Everest Base Camp and the heart of Tibet. Stand before the mighty Himalayas, spend the night under the stars at Everest’s base, and connect with Tibetan locals over shared tea in their homes.
Begin your adventure in Lhasa, exploring the awe-inspiring Potala Palace, sacred monasteries, and colorful markets. Travel across breathtaking landscapes—turquoise lakes, rolling grasslands, and vast mountain plateaus—and visit a Tibetan children’s art school to witness the region’s creativity and resilience firsthand.
The trek itself is suitable for all experience levels, though a basic level of fitness is recommended. Pre-trip exercise is encouraged, and those unable to complete the trek should note that fees are non-refundable due to the nature of high-altitude travel.
If you’re looking for an unforgettable journey that combines spiritual heritage, epic scenery, and the rare chance to camp on Mount Everest, this Tibet expedition is calling your name.
