    Luxury hike to Namche Bazaar

    Fly into Lukla, trek from here through the Sherpa villages into the Phakding village then up to Namche Bazaar. Trek back to Lukla and fly back to Kathmandu. With overnight stays in Phakding, Namche and Lukla. This was a fantastic trip for us, we enjoyed every day. The lodges in this trek are surprisingly comfortable and luxury. The food was great all the time. We loved breathtaking mountain views. We highly recommend this trip to everyone. Thank you, Ram and Alpine Eco team for your perfect arrangements for our trip to Nepal. We will surely come back to see you again someday in the future.
