Namche Bazaar
Namche Bazaar the modern Sherpa capital, is the nerve center of upper Khumbu: from here the trails branch out to explore at least four separate high valleys. It’s a cosmo Politan little village, a good place to pick up tips on trails and conditions from descending trekkers. The village is located on crescent shaped mountain slopes that offer stunning views of the mountains across the valley. Food prices skyrocket above here since all supplies must be carried in from a distance; budget extra for this trip.
It is the entrance to the Everest region Situated in the lap of the Khumbu Himal range, Namche Bazaar is about 24 km from Kathmandu and the distance is generally covered within 15 days by trekking. This place is the home of the legendary Sherpas, who have won international re known as the world’s most sturdy climbers with an indomitable will to scale peaks. One can fly from Kathmandu to Lukla and Syangboche in the Everest region. At Lukla, accommodations are available in Sherpa huts and lodges Lukla is the most popular base for trekking in the Khumbu region, especially for altitude acclimatization, and is the gateway to the high Himalaya. The town has a number of lodgings and stores catering to the needs of visitors. Exploring the tiny shops in the bazaar and the local museum with exhibits of the flora, fauna, and history of the Everest region.
It is the main gateway to Everest base camp trek. You will have a spectacular view of Everest, Lhotse & Amadablam. You can also participate in an optional hike to some of the Sherpa villages of Khumjung, which will take 2 hours to reach.

The Spring is also a good time to visit Namche.
Detail Itinerary
Simply put “WOW”.
Simply put "WOW". I have never met more responsible people in my life. They made sure every step of the way was taken care of from the drivers, tour guides, trek guides, porters and hotel accommodations. I highly recommend this company for its hard working, responsible and friendly people. The people make a company. Special thanks to: Anuja "the planner", Chitiz & Ashmir "the ultimate trekking guides" and finally Robin "the enthusiastic jungle bird watcher".

Plan Holidays did a fantastic job on our whole trip! We did the trip that included time in Kathmandu, Pokhara, Chitwan National Park and a 5-day trek around Annapurna. From the moment we stepped off the plane, we had guides showing us around and everything was perfectly planned for us. Maila, our trekking guide was amazing and had so much knowledge!

I had a wonderful experience
I recently booked a tour with Plan Holidays, and I had a wonderful experience. Anuja scheduled the tour, and it was comforting to have our trip covered without any concerns. Our guide Shiva took us through Kathmandu, and showed all us the highlights of the city and provided us with the cultural and historical background. We also did the Poon Hill Trek with guides Chitiz and Ashmir, who provided a peaceful hike through the Himalayas. On our last two days, we spent time in Chitwan National Park, where our guide, Robin, took us on adventures where we saw crocodiles and rhinos. The entire package was affordable, and our guides met our every need; they went out of their way for us on many occasions. It was comforting to get off the bus and see our guides waiting for us with our name tags. I would highly encourage anyone to book a trip through this company. I promise that you will have an amazing experience--five stars!
