Common questions
Quick answers travelers ask about Nepali.
Do I need a guide for Everest Base Camp?
Since 2023, Nepal requires a government-licensed guide for trekking in national parks including Sagarmatha (Everest region). Enforcement is uneven — many solo trekkers still complete the trek — but at Namche checkpoint you can be retroactively required to hire one. Safest path: a porter-guide for the high-altitude segments.
What permits do I need for Everest Base Camp in 2026?
Two permits, both cash-on-arrival at trail checkpoints: (1) Sagarmatha National Park entry — NPR 3,000 at Monjo; (2) Khumbu Pasang Lhamu Rural Municipality permit — NPR 2,000 at Lukla. Total NPR 5,000 (~$37). The old TIMS card requirement was dropped in 2023 for this region.
How much does the Everest Base Camp trek cost?
Self-organised with a porter-guide: ~$1,600 inclusive of round-trip Lukla flights, permits, on-trail food and lodging, tips. Mid-tier agency package booked from abroad: $2,200-2,800. Premium all-inclusive: $3,500+. Plan for hidden costs at altitude — hot showers, wifi, charging, snacks all add up.
