16 Days Everest Base Camp Trekking with Luxurious Accommodation including 5 star Gokarna Forest Resort is offered to travelers who are keen to be a part of a legendary and the most classical trekking trail in Nepal with luxurious accommodations all around the trip including 5 stars Gokarna Forest Resort. This trekking trip is completely distinct from other normal trips to Everest Base Camp. We primarily emphasize on convenience and luxury of the travelers. The most pursued dream of trekkers, when they choose to visit Nepal, is to see the top of the world, Mt. Everest (8848m). Trekking through Namche Bazar via Tengboche to Kalapatthar and Everest Base Camp is an exhilarating moment for the trekkers. Every step of your trek will be invaluably historical for you if you choose to make your trip to the Khumbu region where the world's tallest giant peaks are proudly welcoming trekkers and adventure seekers. The thrills of being in Everest Base camp are just awesome. Most important, having an insight into the Sherpa kingdom and experiencing Himalayan flora and fauna in Sagarmatha National Park will be another splendor to this trekking.
