Altitude Junkies (P) Ltd. offer one of the most cost-effective full-service expeditions to E V E R E S T in the Khumbu region of the Nepalese Himalaya.

We don’t advertise an expedition price and then ask for additional payments at the conclusion of the expedition such as Sherpa summit bonus and kitchen staff gratuities as some of the other operators do. The price you pay the Junkies is the final price.

This expedition is offered with a 1:1 Sherpa to climber ratio. There is no western leader from Altitude Junkies Inc. present on the expedition.

Everest is technically less demanding than peaks such as Cholatse or Ama Dablam, but its extreme altitude, long summit day, and unpredictable weather make it one of the world’s greatest mountaineering challenges. Unlike technical 6,000 m peaks, success on Everest depends more on acclimatization, endurance, sound decision making, and efficient movement over snow, ice, and fixed ropes from Camp II to the summit.
