Nepal - Everest & Elephants

This is an exciting, varied and challenging 21 day expedition to the Himalayan Kingdom of Nepal.  We will explore the bustling streets of Kathmandu fly in a light aircraft flight over the mountains to Lukla, undertake classic trekking, including to   Everest Base Camp. 

This is one of the most exhilarating treks in the world! The views are breathtaking and become more dramatic as we get higher.  From the vantage of Kala Pattar we enjoy a spectacular view of Everest and trek into the famous Base Camp. 

The adventure continues with a thrilling day rafting on the Trisuli river before spending several nights in the jungle and enjoying elephant-back safaris, elephant washing and the dances of the Tharu people around the campfire.  The perfect adventure expedition to Nepal!
