We (a couple from USA) did the Everest base camp trek in late November- beginning of December 2012. It was great! November is the end of the main trekking season, but we still had really nice weather and nice days in the mountains. We flew into Lukla and hiked for a total of 12 days. Our original plan was 13 days of trekking, but due to bad weather we were delayed for one day on our way to Lukla. Since we missed one of our acclimatization days, our trek became one day shorter and we did not make it to Kala pathar or Everest base camp. If it is important for you to reach base camp, you have to make a deal with your travel agency in advance; otherwise you will not be able to reach your goal without the risk of getting altitude sickness if you are short on days. On our way down we walked to Khumjuung and visited Khunde, which we really liked and recommend. We used the guide book “Trekking the Everest Region” by Jamie Mc Guinness, and we really enjoyed to read it during the evenings. Our trip was organized by Mr.Sanjib and his “ website ” www.nepaguideinfo.com. For approximately 1050 USD per person he met us at the airport, arranged and paid for our room at hotelnapalaya . The price also included the plane ticket Katmandu – Lukla –Katmandu, a very nice Sherpa guide and a porter. During the trek, all food (but not drinks) and accommodation was also included. We recommend using Sanjib and his services, he met all our expectations and we are very happy with our trip.
