You can make a 40% advance payment during the booking process, and the remaining payment can be settled upon your arrival in Kathmandu. To be on the safe side, it's advisable to carry some extra funds in Nepali currency for emergencies, as ATM services are limited, and local currency is often required for expenses during the trek to Everest Base Camp.
The best seasons for the Everest Base Camp Trek are the pre-monsoon (spring) season, running from March to May, and the post-monsoon (autumn) season, from September to November.

The cost of these permits can vary depending on your nationality and the specific region you plan to visit. It's essential to check with the local authorities or a reliable trekking agency for the most up-to-date information on permit requirements and fees, as these can change over time.
Additionally, you may need to obtain other necessary documents, such as a visa for entry into Nepal and insurance coverage, so be sure to plan and prepare accordingly.

Porters, on the other hand, help lighten your load, allowing you to enjoy the trek more comfortably. Their support ensures you can focus on the breathtaking scenery and experiences while they manage the heavy lifting, making your journey both enjoyable and less strenuous.
The main and common risk while trekking above about 2500m is Altitude sickness. Altitude sickness is caused by acute exposure to low partial pressure of oxygen at high altitude. The available amount of oxygen to sustain mental and physical alertness decreases with altitude. Available oxygen drops as the air density itself, the number of molecules (of both oxygen and nitrogen) per given volume, drops as altitude increases. So don’t ignore, if you have any symptoms then descending to a lower altitude is the only option.
Nepal is a developing country, Outside of major cities area electricity on trekking can be scares. You should have to pay 100-800 NRs per hour to charge goods on many lodges and also many tea-house treks, including in Annapurna base camp trek, Everest Base camp trek and many others treks also. Chargers often won't work on low power solar systems you find right up in the mountains so u can buy alternative bayonet light to electricity power plug converter, which will only works in low voltage is highlow. The standard Nepalese electrical outlet is a three-pronged triangle so bring three-pronged triangle chargers.
The Everest Base Camp Trek is considered moderately challenging. It involves daily hiking at high altitudes, which can be physically demanding. The trek requires a good level of fitness and the ability to acclimatize to altitude changes. It's not a technical climb, but the rugged terrain and varying weather conditions can add to the challenge. With proper preparation, acclimatization, and a reasonable fitness level, many trekkers of different ages and experience levels successfully complete this incredible journey, making it more about determination and resilience than extreme difficulty.

Lifetime Experience I really loved my experience to the Everest Base Camp with Actual Adventure. We were a group of 10 people travelling together and each of the members were equally loved and respected in spite of having some physical differences. The guides were great and all the company staffs were extremely talented. We had no problems regarding accommodation and food. Everything was perfect and we ended up having a perfect trek!
