    The trail will be slightly uphill when you journey from Phakding to Namche Bazaar. But as you reach Jorsalle, be prepared for a steep uphill hike.

    Walking for an extended period can be challenging if you’re not used to it, so preparing beforehand is critical. A month or two before the trek, try running, walking, or jogging for 4-5 hours at a stretch to get your body used to it and make it easier.

    Best time for the trek

    Everest View Trek is an enjoyable experience all year round. Still, its beauty can be fully appreciated during the springtime (March to May) when the hills are richly covered in lush green shades.

    Another good time for this trek is autumn when the magnificent sight of snow-capped peaks and colorful foliage is a stunning contrast that will take your breath away. October and November are the perfect months to witness this spectacle as the leaves transform into unique hues.

    Professional Tour Operator

    The pure mood of the trek was extraordinary while trekking from the lap of the world’s tallest peak. Throughout the trek, the guide had all of the essential equipment and a thorough understanding of the environment in the Everest region. I felt melancholy when trekking across the meadows of the Himalayan region. With the variety of alternatives included, dinner was on another level, and breakfast was delicious. Our tour representative “Pradip” handled our permits and domestic flight tickets, and we felt extremely fortunate to know that it was part of the package. Overall, our Everest view trek was a complete success. We want to express our sincere gratitude to the Peregrine team for looking out for us professionally throughout the trek.

    Excellent Trekking of Khumbu Region

    During the autumn season, we made reservations for our trekking. The weather was great, and we thoroughly enjoyed the expedition’s first few days. The guide was excellent, and he took us on a tour of the Everest region. The picturesque Monjo and Khumjung valley were great to explore. The accommodations were fantastic, and the staff was kind and helpful. We could take in the sweeping Himalayan vistas of eastern Nepal while on the Everest View Trek. Everything was well-managed, and we were able to have a fantastic day. The whole Pegrerine Treks & Tours staff deserves praise for making this happen.

    Impressive Trekking Package of Everest

    In July, after packing everything, we flew across the Himalayas from Italy and landed in Nepal. The Peregrine tour operator met us at the airport and drove us to the hotel in a private vehicle, which was beautiful. With its variety of amenities, Kathmandu’s lodging services were excellent. We had the Lukla trip earlier in the morning, and after 30 minutes of spectacular flying and savoring the aerial view of the Alpine region, we cautiously landed at the Lukla. Our modest guide led us to the spectacular Everest region’s attractions. The teahouses were impressive, and the foods were superb throughout the trek. The expedition’s conclusion was equally great; we took full advantage of every part.

    Memorable Trek

    The entire Peregrine staff was full of professionalism, and I recommend that everyone embark on an experience in Nepal with this tour organization. The guide was highly competent and spoke English well, which helped me comprehend everything he said along the trek. The monasteries in the Khumnjung valleys were exceptionally picturesque, displaying a rich fusion of traditional Buddhist arts and crafts. The Everest View Hotel has a spectacular view of the Himalayas to the north and pleasant, comfy rooms to sleep in. Thanks to the guide, I also saw the Thamserku from the Namche Bazaar in its raw form. Overall, the Everest view trek was indeed a memorable experience.

    Excellent service from beginning to end

    The booking procedure was straightforward. We had six members in our group, and each of the two members had one guide. The porters were friendly and assisted us with our heavy backpacks from Lukla to the Khumjung. Luxurious hotels are another major highlight of the Everest Region. The view of the majestic Himalayas was heavenly. The guide even carried the first aid toolbox, which helped me a lot to prevent the infection of the insects and leeches while crossing the dense forest through the Sagaramatha national park area. We were so happy to do this expedition with the Peregrine team. The services were excellent, and the gesture from the guide and the tour representative was wholesome.

    Great service of Peregrine

    The booking process was quite simple. In our group of six, there was one guide for every three people. From Lukla to the Khumjung, porters were helpful and pleasant, helping us carry our bulky baggage. Another essential draw of the Everest Region is the luxurious hotels. The view of the beautiful Himalayas was breathtaking. While traversing the deep jungle via the Sagaramatha national park region, my guide even brought a first aid toolbox, which helped help me avoid getting any infections from insects and leeches. We were ecstatic when we chose to embark on this excursion with the Peregrine crew. The services were superb, and the gestures from the guide and tour representative were genuine.

    Fantastic Trek

    Even though I didn’t put in a lot of training for my adventure, getting to the destination took significant effort. The guide kept me inspired throughout the trek and monitored my every movement. I had a very great time on the entire trek. It was great to pass through Namche Bazaar. The sherpa population in the Monjo hamlet was relatively modest, and from their settlement, they had a stunning view of Cho Oyu, Makalu, and Everest to the north. We were in constant contact with the peregrine tour representative throughout the trek. The Everest region has a fantastic atmosphere because of its bustling population and excellent accommodation options.

    Everest View Trek with Peregrine

    The natural beauty of Nepal’s eastern Himalayas was unforgettable. One of my favorite feelings was crossing suspension bridges in the high chilly air above the Dudh Koshi. I vividly recall trekking across the Khumjung Village’s countryside with yak and sheep. The Tengboche monasteries were stunning. The pleasant energy I sensed while being around Tengboche was marvelous. The adjacent monks were gracious and even educated me about some of the critical components of meditation. Snacks, dinners, and all of them together were delicious and satisfying. I recommend you do the Everest view trek with Peregrine since it was a very refreshing experience for me.
