Everest View Tour - Essential Information

During the amazing Everest tour, you will get a chance to visit the Nepali local people from traditional villages. You can explore the local culture and traditions of the Nepali people during the hike from Changunarayan to Nagarkot.

Changunarayan temple is the oldest, historical temple in Nepal. This is why it is the main destination and attraction of visitors. After a few hours of hike, we will reach Nagarkot from where you can see the magnificent views of the Himalayan panoramas like Everest, Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, and many more. The reason behind the popularity of Nagarkot is the best view of the sunrise over the Himalayan range including Mt. Everest from the viewpoint.

Nagarkot Himalaya view

Everest view tour not only includes the views of the mountains and sunrise over the Himalayas. Everest tour also includes sightseeing in the world heritage sites in Kathmandu like Kathmandu Durbar Square, Bhaktapur Durbar Square, Patan Durbar Square, Pashupatinath Temple, Bauddhanath Temple, Swayambhunath Stupa, and local market of Kathmandu.  These are the oldest and the most historic places of Kathmandu, made hundreds of years ago. Each of these has a different history.

Pashupatinath temple is the most popular holy temple situated in heart of Temple Valley which is dedicated to Lord Shiva. Whereas Bauddhanath and Swayambhunath stupa is also holy places that are dedicated to Buddha. Kathmandu durbar Square, Patan durbar square, and Bhaktapur durbar square are the royal palace of the former kings.

Kathmandu Durbar square: Kathmandu Durbar square is the Royal palace of the former king of Nepal, situated at the heart of Kathmandu valley. Kathmandu Durbar square was made by King Pratap Malla in 1672 A.D. Kathaman Durbar Square is the royal Palace where kings are crowned and their coronations are solemnized.

The main attraction of this Palace is a royal palace with historical arts, Kumari Ghar, Kasthamandap, and Jaisi devel. Kumari Ghar means the house of the God Kumari. Kumari is the only God in World who is alive. So this place is especially for the Kumari God. Kasthamandap is one of the popular temples which is only made by the woods in the 16th century by queen Laxmi Narasimha. The whole building is made from the woods of a single tree. This building has the most interesting and amazing wood arts which are very unique. Jaisi devel temple is a holy temple for the Hindus which is dedicated to Lord Shiva. So this is kept in UNESCO World heritage sites.

Bhaktapur Durbar Square: Bhaktapur Durbar square is another Royal palace of the former king, which is also kept on the list of UNESCO world heritage sites. Bhaktapur Durbar Square is situated at the east of the Kathmandu valley, which is made in the 12th century by Ananda Malla.

Bhaktapur Durbar Square:  Most popular and famous than the other Durbar square. The popularity of Bhaktapur Durbar square is its magical history, old architecture, old royal palace, 55 window palace, Nyatapol Temple also known as the highest temple of Nepal made in the 17th century which is dedicated to Siddhi Laxmi, Bhairabnath temple, Batsala temple, lions gate and another man oldest Hindu as well as Buddhist monuments.

Patan Durbar Square: Patan Durbar Square is one of the most visited sites in Kathmandu valley which is also on the list of UNESCO world heritage sites. Patan Durbar square was made in the 16th century by former king Siddinarshinma Malla.

The main attraction of Patan Durbar Square is its historical magical architecture. Golden temple, Krishna mandir, peace gallery, Patan Musem and many other places are the main reason for its popularity. According to legends golden temple was found in the 12 century.

Its frontage is covered by gilded metal plates which is why it’s called, Golden Temple. Krishna Mandir is the main holy place for Hinduism. Every place has its own interesting history.

Changunarayan Temple: Changunarayan Temple is the oldest temple in Nepal, which is dedicated to Lord Vishnu. Changu Narayan Temple has the masterpieces of the 5th and 12th centuries. According to legend Changunarayan temple was made in the 4th century by the Lichhavi king.

Changu Narayan Temple has the most oldest and rare wood arts and stone art that was made hundreds of years ago. This is why the Temple Changu Narayan is kept in UNESCO world heritage site.

Pashupatinath Temple: Pashupatinath temple is one of the oldest temples which is on the list of world heritage sites in 1979. The origin of Pashupati has different stories. In one story it is said that once Shiva and Parvathi are walking then they rest at the bank of the Bagmati River. Then Shiva was impressed by the beauty of the jungle. Then Shiva and Parvathi changed their avatar to deer.

After some time other gods started to search for Shiva and then they found Shiva as a deer in the jungle and he refused to leave that jungle. So he lived in the Bagmati river as a deer then he is known as the Pashupatinath, which means lord of all the animals.

Nagarkot: In the Everest View tour we view sunset and sunrise over the Himalayan panoramas like the Everest range, Annapurna range, Manaslu range, Ganesh Himal range, Langtang range, Jugal range, Rolwaling range, and many others. So, Nagarkot is the best destination for viewing the most scenic views of the Himalayan ranges/panoramas. During the hike from ChanguNarayan to Nagarkot, you can get a chance to experience the daily life of local people from the village and their traditions, and culture.

Excellent Experience with Life Himalaya Trekking Excellent Experience with Life Himalaya Trekking – Highly Recommended! A big thank you to the entire team at Life Himalaya Trekking Pvt Ltd for organising such a wonderful experience for us. We arrived in Kathmandu on 12 October 2026 and completed our 12-day trek to Everest Base Camp. Everything was organised very well from start to finish, and the team looked after us throughout the journey. A special thank you to our guide, Birsha Rai, who communicated with us so well. His English was excellent and easy to understand. He was friendly, professional and very flexible, making sure we were comfortable along the way. Our two Sherpa porters were also incredibly kind and helpful. We also appreciated the warm welcome and the lovely farewell ceremony with lunch. It was a beautiful way to finish our adventure. Thank you to Shiba, the Managing Director, and the whole Life Himalaya team for making our Everest Base Camp trek such a memorable experience. We are from Australia and would happily recommend Life Himalaya Trekking to anyone planning an adventure in Nepal. You can book with confidence! Thank you again for everything! 🇦🇺🏔️

Stunning mountain views and adventurous trails This is our second time booking with Life Himalaya Trekking and we were nothing but happy with the entire experience. Our two week trip started with the meetup in Kathmandu and travelling to Lukla for the meeting of our guide Pramod and our Porter Lilaraj - everything was organized perfectly. From then on we were in great hands throughout our tour, always well taken care of and always looked after. Pramod was full of knowledge and insight of the area and the surrounding mountains. Lilaraj helped us with our bags and made the trip feel a little lighter for us. We are so thankful to both of them for supporting us on our trip - it would not have been as much fun and as comfortable without both of them! We really enjoyed the EBC trail as well - the weather was fantastic and the views of the mountains on this trail are phenomenal. But be prepared for quite a busy trail and definitely some exhausting parts along the way. But with the support of Pramod and Lilaraj, we made it to our goal to reach the EBC and we are very proud of the achievement. It would not have been possible without all the help from Life Himalaya Trekking - we cannot wait to come back for our next tour!

Big thanks to Life Himalaya Trekking for a wonderful EBC trek! We went recently on the EBC trek for 14 days with Life Himalaya Trekking - and everything was organized perfectly. From the communication ahead of the trip to the hike itself - we were well taken care of. Shiba, the head of the company, made sure our trip started and ended smoothly. Our guide Pramod was so kind and very well informed, we got the best possible information while trekking. Our porter Lilaraj supported us along the whole trek. We have nothing to complain about and we look forward to visiting beautiful Nepal again. And we look forward to our next tour with Life Himalaya Trekking!

An Incredible Trek with the Best Team! I completed the Manaslu Circuit with Saugat and Aunil, and it was an absolutely incredible experience! The trek was breathtaking, the organization was perfect, and the views were simply stunning. Saugat’s knowledge, professionalism, and expertise as a guide, together with Aunil’s help, kindness, and support as a porter, made the whole experience even more special. I couldn’t have asked for a better team! I will definitely come back to Nepal, and I will choose this agency, Saugat, and Aunil again without hesitation. 10 stars for my new friends! Thank you both for making this adventure unforgettable!

Outstanding experience with Life Himalaya Trekking We have just returned from a 12-day trek to Everest Base Camp with Life Himalaya Trekking (plus 3 days in Katmandu). From start to finish, Shiba—the owner of this prestigious agency—delivered service that far exceeded our expectations. Our guide, Birsha Rai, provided exceptional support throughout what is a very demanding trek. We were consistently impressed by the quality of his guidance, his attitude, and his services; we truly appreciated how fortunate we were to have his support every step of the way. The trek turned into an exceptional human experience. Louis L.

Mardi Himal Trek A life changing experience! Milan and Bhim were the best guide and porter for our very first trek in the Himalayas. Although the weather wasn’t always on our side, we got to see the most spectacular views, stayed in the best hotels/ camps and definitely got to tick off an item on the bucket list. Thank you Milan, for your wealth of knowledge and for guiding us safely through some rather wet and rainy conditions. We will definitely be back!

Dream EBC + exceptional visit to Kathmandu. Thanks to Life Himalaya Trekking, my husband and I were able to realize a dream. From the moment of organizing from Italy, Shiba proved to be extremely available and quick in communications. And, once here, we were able to immediately verify how efficient the entire team that makes up the company is. Shiba is infinitely sweet and friendly; he pampered us, guiding us through all the organizational aspects of our trip, from the trek to Everest Base Camp to cultural visits in Kathmandu and surroundings, covering all types of transportation we needed. Thanks to him, we had the pleasure of spending our time in Nepal with unique people, who allowed us to get to know this wonderful country and its inhabitants up close. Tika was our guide during the hike to EBC, and thanks to him and our porter Podam, we experienced a wonderful and authentic adventure! Both very knowledgeable, they were excellent at taking care of us, thanks to their attention to even the small things, the advice and information they provided us, but especially due to their friendliness, which allowed us to approach even the most difficult situations with ease. Tika is an exceptional entertainer and a great photographer; he was our family for more than a week, and we are very grateful to him. The entire experience of reaching Everest Base Camp was all-encompassing; it captivated us in every aspect, both scenic and human. It was exciting to reach the destination after a journey that lasted about a week. But it was equally incredible and moving to fly by helicopter from Gorak Shep to Lukla, retracing from above every step taken and every place experienced during the previous days. We would like to thank Promot, Raj, Rajan, and especially our exceptional tour guide Ajya, who accompanied us through the most iconic places in Kathmandu, sharing their history and every cultural aspect. The passion and love for one's work allowed us to immerse ourselves in a world that, otherwise, we would have understood and experienced only halfway. Thanks also to all the other members who contributed to the success of our trip. This is a goodbye; we look forward to returning to Nepal!
