Is the Everest Base Camp Trek via Gokyo Lakes everything that you want to see? The answer to this question is no. Its trekking trail does not help you to explore the secrets of the Everest Region. Because the region has so many beauties; the region is also vast, and the beauty with the vastness not only has a usual trekking trail, but also the trails that you have never heard of.

According to our experience, Altitude Mountain sickness can occur above 2,500 meters. Symptoms may include headaches, vomiting, tiredness, trouble sleeping, and dizziness. The remedies are

• Drink extra water
• Don’t go up until symptoms go down

Travel Max Guide includes all lodging, food, and transport during the trek and takes care of all the logistics, allowing you to relax and enjoy the spectacular highlights.

Accommodation

In Kathmandu, you are going to stay at the 3-star category hotel (Value). During trekking, you will spend your night in a tea house. The tea house is a lodge or a guest house. The tea house is an old name for a lodge because trekkers and climbers gave this name 40 years ago. After all, it used to sell only tea then. Now they also sell meals as well as provide bedrooms for the trekkers and climbers. The old name tea house is still used by the trekking agencies in Nepal. Hence, the name tea house trek. Tea house differs from village to village where you are going to spend your night. Some have attached bathrooms as well as running a hot water facility, while others have only basic facilities, that is, you have to share a toilet and a bathroom with others. This is so because they are located at a high altitude and the remotest area. Some provide dormitory-style accommodation, but they also provide you a bed, a pillow, a blanket, and a bedsheet still, you must have your sleeping bag.
