Stepping it up from our classic 3 Peaks expedition, enjoy the best the Khumbu has to offer by upgrading your trip in line with our Executive programs.

This option includes the classic 3 Peaks offerings plus:

  • Skip the long trek back down valley & instead enjoy a scenic helicopter flight out of Island Peak all the way back to Kathmandu (allowing you to shorten your trip or take advantage of some more time sightseeing in Nepal; check out the options on our Nepal Extensions  page)
  • Five star, single room accommodation in Kathmandu
  • Upgraded single room teahouses along the Everest Base Camp trek (think Yeti Mountain Homes)
  • Deluxe, spacious, standing room tents and cots at Lobuche Base Camp & Everest Base Camp
    (Please note for High Camps and Pokalde & Island Peak regions you will rejoin the normal program as luxury facilities aren’t accessible in this region and on the mountain tent sharing is for safety and warmth)
