For many planning a journey to the Himalaya Mountains, Everest is the dream destination. Mount Everest lies along the border between Tibet and Nepal. Both sides of the mountain have a climbers base camp. The Nepal side of Everest can only be reached by trekking on foot, while the Tibet side can be reached by vehicle. Whether you are wanting to do a photography or cultural journey to the Tibet side of Everest, trek to the Nepal side base camp, trek to Advance Base or even set out for the summit of the world's highest peak, we can assist you in organizing a professionally-guided adventure.
You do not need to climb Everest in order to experience it and you don't need to be in top physical condition either. Here are a list of adventures you can take to Mount Everest in order of difficulty starting from the easiest to the most difficult.
Tibet-side Journey to Everest Base Camp
Unlike the Nepal side of Everest which requires trekking to reach, the Tibet side of the mountain has a paved road leading to it from Lhasa, the capital city of Tibet. This journey starts by spending at least 3 nights in Lhasa where you can explore the sacred Buddhist city and its many pilgrimage sites, while adjusting to the higher altitude of Tibet. From Lhasa, you then set off on an epic road trip thru Central Tibet going to villages, ancient monasteries, snow-capped peaks, river valleys, glaciers and Buddhist temples before arriving to the North Face Everest Base Camp Region at Rongphu Monastery. This route is regarded as one of the most scenic road trips in Asia. The Tibet-side Everest Base Camp at Rongphu Monastery offers a clear, epic view of the mountain, which is actually better than the view from the Nepal-side base camp. The journey from Lhasa to the Tibet-side base camp takes 10 days to complete. You can end the journey either back in Lhasa or in Kathmandu, Nepal. The best months to do this journey are from early April thru the end of May and again from mid September thru early December. These months have generally clear skies allowing for good mountain views and relatively pleasant temperatures. More info on this journey in the links below or at: info@himalayajourney.com

Tibet-side Trek to Everest Base Camp
Though not nearly as popular as the Nepal side base camp trek, it is also possible to trek to the Tibet-side Everest Base Camp Region (EBC). The views along the trek are not as impressive as the views along the Nepal side trek, but the view of Everest from base camp is spectacular. The trek on the Tibet side begins by spending at least 3 nights in Lhasa while adjusting to the high altitude. From there, you will travel overland by vehicle about 700 kilometers west thru Central Tibet to the small town of Old Tingri. From Old Tingri, the trek begins. From Old Tingri, the trek covers about 80 kilometers and takes 4 or 5 days to reach Everest Base Camp. The trek passes by a couple of isolated villages, rolling grasslands and near some glacier-covered peaks before reaching Rongphu (Rongbuk) Monastery and the Tibet-side EBC. The total amount of time needed to do this journey is between 12 and 14 days (again, with 4 or 5 days of actual trekking). The best months to do this trek are April, May, September and October.

Nepal Everest Base Camp Trek
As one of the most popular and most scenic treks in the Himalayas, it's easy to see why the Nepal Everest Base Camp Trek is awesome! The trek takes about 2 weeks to complete while starting and ending in the small town of Lukla, located about 30 to 40 minutes away from Kathmandu by flight. Throughout the trek, there are epic views of mountains, pristine rivers and glaciers. This trekking route has guesthouses and restaurants all along it so no camping is required. The best months to do this trek are March thru May and again in October and November. For more details on this trek, go to the following link or contact us at: info@himalayajourney.com
Tibet Advanced Base Camp Trek
For those wanting to go higher up on the mountain, the Tibet Advanced Base Camp Trek (ABC) is a great option. This trek reaches a maximum altitude of 6400 meters (21,000 feet) with some outstanding views of Mt Everest and the nearby glaciers. Like the Tibet-side Everest base camp trek (EBC), this journey begins in Lhasa and then goes overland by vehicle thru Central Tibet to the small town of Old Tingri. From there, you begin the trek to EBC and on to ABC. The total amount of time needed for this journey is 18 to 21 days, with between 9 and 11 days of actual trekking (with some acclimatization/rest days in the middle of the journey). The best months to do this trek are April, May and October. Contact us for more details on this trek at: info@himalayajourney.com
Tibet North Col Climbing Expedition
The North Col of Mt Everest sits at just over 7000 meters/23,000 feet in elevation. It is the low point on the ridge connecting Mt Everest with Changtse, another giant peak just to the north of Everest. A climb to the North Col is a great way to see how your body does at high altitude while getting an amazing view of the surrounding peaks. A climb to the North Col takes between 21 and 24 days to complete, including journey time to base camp from Lhasa. To reach the North Col, you will go to the Tibet-side base camp and then hike up to Advanced Base Camp (see info above) and continue on to the North Col. The best months to do this climb are April and May. Contact us for more details on this trek at: info@himalayajourney.com
Tibet Everest Summit Expedition
About 35% of all Everest summits are from the Tibet side of the mountain. Starting in late March/early April each year, the climb to the summit of the Tibet-side of Everest takes between 55 and 60 days to complete, including travel time to and from base camp. For summit attempts on the Tibet side of the mountain, we partner closely with expert foreign guides and base camp managers, experienced Sherpa climbing guides as well as the China Tibet Mountaineering Association (CTMA). The climbs we assist in arranging on Everest follow the route from Everest base camp up to Advanced Base Camp and the North Col. The summit is then reached from the North Col Route. Contact us for more details on this climb at: info@himalayajourney.com
Nepal Everest Summit Expedition
The southeast ridge is the most popular climbing route up Mt Everest and is located on the Nepal side of the mountain. The climbing season begins in late March/early April and takes 7 or 8 weeks to complete. The journey begins by flying from Kathmandu into Lukla and trekking up to base camp. The Nepal side has the infamous Khumbu Icefall that will need to be navigated. The climbs that we assist in arranging on the Nepal side of Everest are led by expert foreign and Sherpa guides who all have multiple Everest summits to their names.

Everest can be visited just about anytime of year, though certain times of the year are better than others. As the Tibet side of the mountain has a paved road leading to it, it really an be visited anytime of year. The best weather though are the months of April, May, October and November.
The best months to trek to the Nepal Everest base camp are March thru May and again in October and November. The best months to trek to the Tibet Everest base camp are April, May, September and October.
Most Everest summit attempts from both the Nepal and Tibet sides of the mountain start in late March/early April and take 7 or 8 weeks to complete.
All of our journeys and treks to Mount Everest are led by expert, English speaking local guides from Tibet and Nepal. For climbs up the mountain, we partner with both experienced foreign and Sherpa guides who have multiple Everest summits.
I joined the 3 week group tour from Lhasa to Mt Kailash via Everest in June 2018 and had the most amazing journey. Jamin and Phurphu made sure that every day was an adventure filled with everything from small spontaneous hikes to visits to local Tibetan houses and restaurants to close-up meetings with nomads and yaks. Our wishes and needs were always heard and the program was altered and customized during the trip itself to accommodate for preferences and weather. This flexibility together with both Jamin and Phurphu's knowledge and passion for Tibet and its people shared through stories on the road or over a cup of butter tea made the trip a very memorable and special experience. And for a mountain lover like me all the impressive peaks we got to see! I will definitely travel with Himalaya Journey again and would highly recommend them to everyone who really wants to not only see but truly experience the Himalaya region. Camilla—Sweden—June 2018
Our trip to Tibet & Nepal was possibly the most amazing trip of our lives. These are parts of the world you need to be introduced to, you don’t end up visiting as a casual tourist and you’ll certainly need a guide. When we researched our trip it seemed that “all the roads lead to Jamin” and to Himalaya Journey - and rightly so.
Jamin is incredibly experienced and charismatic. He leads from the heart and speaks from his own, very unique, personal experience. It was important for us to know that our visit was going to benefit the people of Tibet and we were delighted to find out that Jamin cares about that very much. Jamin’s guides, Nyima Dolma and Jamyung in Tibet and Ashok in Kathmandu were also so knowledgable and simply amazing with their kindness and attentiveness. We feel so happy and honoured to have met them.
There were many highlights on this trip, from experiencing the holy city of Lhasa to finally seeing Everest (I’m obsessed with all things Everest) but mostly we loved experiencing people’s kindness and hospitality. I truly can’t wait to travel with Himalaya Journey once again and would recommend travelling with them in a heartbeat.
We miss you Jamin & everyone at Himalaya Journey! Lucia—Italy—April 2018
I had an amazing trip with Himalaya Journey! Tibet is such a special place! All the crew was very knowledgeable and sweet and the service was impeccable. Claudia—Malta—April 2018
Almost without exception, travels have both an objective and certain expectations that need be met for the outcome to be judged successful. For me a ‘journey’ implies somewhat more than this….there is a sense of challenging the unknown, including one’s own inner self. And then if you add to ‘journey’ the word ‘Himalaya’, one of the world’s most majestic and inspiring regions with landscapes that are often beyond belief, then you have something very, very special indeed.
Prior to October 2016 I had travelled solo, with a guide and transportation, on all my journeys, including the Tibetan Autonomous Region (TAR), giving me the flexibility and freedom to stop at will, modify plans and so on. But having vowed to go back to the far west of the TAR (Ngari) to do the kora of Mount Kailash and visit the Guge Kingdom I was faced with exorbitant costs if travelling alone. I knew I had to find an alternative, and that alternative proved to be Himalaya Journey.
I had been in touch with Jamin York, Himalaya Journey’s Owner and Lead Guide, several times previously with general questions about travelling in ‘Greater Tibet’ and so it somehow seemed natural to approach him regarding making my Kailash dream materialize. One thing led to another and by the time 2015 melted into 2016 I was committed to joining Jamin’s small (10 person) group embarking on a 23-day journey in October which would take us across the TAR from Lhasa slowly westwards via Everest and Shishapangma Base Camps to Lake Manasarovar, Mount Kailash and the Guge Kingdom, and then back…a total land journey of around 4,000km.
My initial concerns about being in a group and having to keep to a strict schedule proved groundless. Jamin was only too willing to stop for sudden photo ops—the appearance of a Tibetan fox, a glorious view, a nomad encampment and so on. He also actively encouraged us to explore on our own when the itinerary permitted: in my case that meant spending special moments wandering through the Barkor in Lhasa and watching sunrise on the shore of Manasarovar. Only once were we ‘chivvied’ in any sense, and that was during the Kailash kora on top of the Drolma-la. Jamin, with his vast experience of the mountains, was aware not only of the time constraints that day but more importantly that staying too long at that altitude (5,630m/ around 18,400’) was not to be recommended.
From a practical standpoint, everything throughout the journey was seamlessly arranged: we travelled in a small bus which gave us space to spread out and with a driver whose skills made going over 5,000m+ high passes again and again seem effortless! The hotels and guest houses, especially once we got beyond Lhasa, Gyantse and Shigatse, were always the best available: I had paid a single room supplement, fully expecting to have to share in these remote areas, so I was delighted that there were only two nights on which I could not have some much appreciated privacy. The meals were generally of a high standard, and even in Ngari Jamin managed to rustle something tasty up for us or produce snack bars and packets of instant oatmeal out of his proverbial hat.
What also emerged strongly throughout our journey was Jamin’s love for and commitment to Tibet and its people, not to mention his in-depth knowledge. His assistant on our journey, Nordrup, was himself Tibetan; we frequented Tibetan-owned restaurants, hotels and guesthouses whenever possible; and Jamin, fluent in Tibetan as well as Mandarin, regaled us while we were on the road with both incidents from Tibetan history and his own personal experiences of living there.
It was an unforgettable journey…indeed, although I left Tibet many weeks ago now, my journey is still on-going as I look back at my photos and notebook and try to weave it all into a story on my laptop.
I have the greatest respect and admiration for Jamin both as a person and journey-leader and have no reservations at all in recommending him and his company. Indeed, I hope to join him again in the future on a journey to Ladakh, ‘Little Tibet’: I believe that is the strongest recommendation of all. Lesley—UK—October 2016
The trip far exceeded my expectations and I will definitely use Himalaya Journey again. I highly recommend Himalaya Journey to others who want to experience this hauntingly beautiful place called Tibet! Sue—USA—October 2016
I’d have to use a ridiculous number of superlatives to honestly describe the quality of my recent journey with Jamin York and Himalaya Journey. In the interest of being believable, I’ll try to rein it in, but it will be a task I’m not sure I can manage! For me, this was a journey that I (and a couple friends) have spent many years and two failed attempts trying to accomplish. The permits were just not to be had, and we were beginning to feel that the idea must be abandoned. Then we discovered Jamin’s excellent website and, after a number of emails with him, began to feel confident that it could become a reality. I just completed a 23-day journey, led by Jamin and his wonderful guide Ngodup, that not only fulfilled my hope to complete the kora of Mt. Kailash and a visit to the lost Guge Kingdom, but took us across the length of the Tibetan Himalaya from Everest Base Camp to nearly the Indian border in far west Tibet. He even threw in Shishapangma Base Camp at the request of our group.
Each day, every step of the way, revealed such wondrous gifts, some expected and others a complete surprise. This journey, and the itinerary designed by Jamin and Ngodup, had it all, from monasteries and lost citadels, to landscapes beyond imagination: mountains, badlands, sand dunes, vast plateaus, and sacred lakes. And then there were our “Tibet 101” talks: Jamin and Ngodup each have a deep and personal knowledge which was shared each day as we traveled or walked; they taught us so much about the culture, geology, and history of Tibet and its people; and each shared many personal stories as well. Jamin has a heartfelt love for the Tibetan people that was evident in every way. Jamin cares genuinely and deeply about the quality of the experience his journeys provide, and he makes it his responsibility to see that both the physical and emotional needs of his travelers are met. His attention to detail in all matters was clear to see. I have never before joined a group that was not organized by myself, and I have to say that this was a pleasant surprise. I never felt that we were being herded around and there was, for the most part, enough flexibility in the days and the schedule to allow personal time and space.
I imagine that every traveler in our group felt “heard” and “seen” and that his or her unique expectations for this journey had been fulfilled. I can say that for me, the experience was transcendent. I would recommend Jamin’s Himalaya Journey without reservation to anyone wanting to travel in Tibet – or anywhere he offers to travel! Karla—USA—October 2016
Jamin York leads a fantastic trip beyond the usual (and including!) sites of Lhasa. He takes great pains to preview routes, lodging and restaurants in person and is careful to limit his group to a comfortable ten. His attention to detail has him preparing contingency plans for any circumstance he can think of. His knowledge of the Chinese and Tibetan languages eased our way through the expected and unexpected. Nothing is sugar-coated as the journey can be rough and uncomfortable at times, but if there was comfort in the area, we had it! Jamin also has the uncanny ability to arrange for perfect weather and the tastiest of Tibetan cuisine.
On advance request he added a side trip to Shishapangma Base Camp which ended up being a popular highlight on a stunning day. The extension to the lost citadel of the Guge Kingdom was the holy grail of photographic opportunities. On second thought, most of the trip was like this!
Even though it can be close to impossible to deviate from “The Plan” due to restrictions, Jamin and Nordrup facilitated spontaneous interactions with Tibetans along the way, from the barley harvesters and millers to the nomads and their yaks. Nancy—USA—October 2016
Our safety, health, and happiness were always a top priority and Jamin is a top notch tour leader in every sense of the word. I can’t imagine a better person in this role!
I took my dream trip to Tibet and Mt. Everest with Jamin and Himalaya Journey this April. From the minute we landed in Lhasa to the birthday banquet in a Tibetan home restaurant on the last day, his staff and friends surrounded us like a big family. He is truly their brother.
The photography time was not just for the magnificent and mystified monasteries. It included Himalaya mountain ranges, glaciers, rivers, and villages, etc. We even stopped by a farming field one time and participated in their plowing and seeding activities.
The Mt. Everest sunrise photo experience was a well thought-out plan. Spending the night before in a nearby Tibetan home and mingling with the entire family was quite an experience. We played hide and seek with the neighboring children on the street. We chatted with village shepherds in the field herding their sheep home and showing off their baby sheep. When we headed out to catch the sunrise, the full moon lit up the entire village.
Jamin is a natural when it comes to telling stories. He preps us on the history, religion, culture and politics of Tibet. But what really connects us to this land and its people are his stories of his Tibetan friends, their struggles and triumphs. We also engaged in questioning and debating with gusto, Sera Monastery monk style, ha, ha, ha. Ruth—USA/Taiwan—April 2016
I highly recommend travelling with Jamin and his Himalaya Journey team to Tibet. He cares about Tibetans and and he cares about Tibet, a country which has an inherent fascination for many. Jamin has lived in Tibet for many years and has visited the iconic attractions on numerous occasions. He willingly shares his knowledge and insights about their history and cultural significance. Despite his familiarity he brings a fresh approach and willingness to engage. His team are a credit to him, particularly the exuberant Jampa. His staff member Woaber helped me ensure Lhasa has forever a place in my heart and …… our bus driver was safe and considerate. And let’s not forget the energetic Will, assistant guide on this trip. I didn’t expect to eat as well as I did when visiting Tibet nor did I expect to experience the comfort in the hotels that were used. These aspects were of course a pleasant surprise. The memories of this trip from Lhasa to Everest base camp will be long lasting and thought provoking. Richard—UK—April 2016
I’ve been a follower of Jamin on Instagram since 2013. Initially, it was my mom’s dream to see Mt Everest, but ended up doing this trip on my own because I knew that Jamin was a professional, trust worthy expert on Tibet. I usually never join small group tours, as I always travel on my own. But, joining this journey made me realize that not all group tours are the same after all. I met people on this journey that I will call my friends for life. Jamin is indeed the best travel coordinator that I have ever met. I went to Tibet to just see Mt Everest, but I came back home not just with great photos and videos, but with a person I can always look up to who is making a huge impact in Tibet by promoting and showing it to the world in an ethical way. I also work in the travel industry, but am still quite young. I am not sure if I can ever be quite like Jamin who does this business not just to make money for himself, but to help the Tibetan people in every possible way he can. He is an inspiration. I finally found my hero in this crazy competitive travel industry. Angely from Access Tours and Travels—Phillippines—April 2016
Two years ago, I almost gave up my life-long dream of going to Tibet. But it is completely revived when I discovered Jamin’s blog (The Land of Snows) and his Instagram page.
Jamin is a fantastic leader right from the beginning of the trip, when I emailed him, till the very end of this incredible journey. His passion and vast knowledge about the Tibetan culture, history, religion, and the careful planning of the trip, has made this journey an enriching one. And I truly admire his support for the Tibetan community, where we stay and dine in Tibetan-run hotels/restaurants. Last but not least, his great sense of humour and captivating life stories always add colour to every day of our trip!
Our Tibetan guide, Jampa, is also a fantastic guide who passionately shares a lot of knowledge about Tibet and Tibetan Buddhism with us. As a Buddhist, I have learned so much about Tibetan Buddhism from her. She’s just a wonderful, kind and fun person to be with! I am grateful to have her as our Tibetan guide for this trip.
All in all, Jamin and Jampa are two wonderful guides/friends/teachers that I met through this trip. And they are definitely two people that I am glad to have crossed paths with in life.
The ten days spent in Tibet have been truly an adventure of a lifetime, and a spiritually enlightening experience for me. The stunning landscape and unique culture of Tibet is a feast for the eyes, while the devotion of the Tibetans feels like a comforting prayer for the soul. The resilience, devotion and compassion of the Tibetans will stay and go far with me in life. I highly recommend Jamin and his Himalaya Journey team to lead your trip to Tibet. And I already can’t wait to go for another adventure with them! Thank you once again for the most amazing journey of my life. Adhianto—Indonesia—April 2016
