RE: Trekking to Everest Base Camp: My Experience PART FOUR
waw. . .
this must be a very fun and amazing journey @travelstheworld
and certainly not everyone can do it, because the cost would be very expensive and needed a strong physical.
It was an amazing journey! The cost was actually pretty reasonable if you go without a guide/porter but you definitely need to be at a decent fitness level to hike with a full pack at those altitudes. Thanks for reading!
yo're wellcome :-)
Means that the cost is expensive if we use guide/porter ? :-)
Yes, I spoke to quite a few people on the trail about costs for guides and porters and the cheapest I heard was $1000USD for the whole trek for just a porter and the highest was over $6000USD. I chose to skip the guide and porter because of the volume of people on the trail (over 11,000 in October) and the fact that it is a very established trail and my expenses for all the permits, rooms, food and rental jacket/sleeping bag was about $450USD and I had to carry a 9kg pack the whole way. It's not as expensive as a lot of people would lead you to believe!
waw. . .
very expensive, up to 1000 $.
if we can master the field of travel, we can be a guide as well.
for 1 month there are 3 people that we guide, can be very rich.
this is a tremendous opportunity.
but not suitable for me this field, because I'm sure my physical is not strong. Climbing up the short distance alone was my body error. hahahaa
