would you be able to tell me what to bring? i dont know what to pack. also, i would like to arrive a few days before the start of the tour, Its a really long flight and i would need a few days to recover from jetlag. Would i be able to come on the 23rd? How hard is it? I have hiked extensively in Europe but the highest mountain I was on was 2000m. Is altitude sickness a big problem?

It is not that much hard. I did it many time. Only one hour is challenging around the pass. It is not a big problem but more or less 1% people suffer from altitude sickness. I would like to request with you to be a positive. It is nothing forget AMS. This doesn't make a trouble for you.

Is there an additional fee for solo travel? Please clarify where nights will be each night during trekking, at a lodge? I would like my own private room at Kathmandu, and while trekking If available- ok if not while trekking. Also, is there storage for my luggage at Kathmandu?

During the trekking all the accommodation is in the tea house. Hotel. If. You want private room in Kathmandu and during the trek there is the private room fee of USD 280. You are able to store your luggage at the hotel or my office thamel.

I did the Everest Base Camp, Threes Passes Trek. Since I was traveling solo my guide was able to change route to a more flexible and interesting trek. I came here to see the great mountains but the villages, monasteries and people were just as magnificent as the high peaks. We had some very challenging weather and without my guides expertise and loyalty I would have been in some serious trouble. The tea houses were welcome at the end of the day with their stoves and foods. The nights are cold but bringing a warm sleeping bag makes it good. The weather is the weather and can’t be changed, the company knows this and truly does everything in their power to make the trip a successful and memorable one. Mine was!! Shout out to my guide Bishnu, he said his name means god, and he was mine.Show more
