Good experience in Buthan tour
I joined the tour of Buthan for 3 nights. Although the price is high because I am in a solo trip, the quality is good! Buthan is the cleanest country in the world! You don’t need to worry about anything just be happy and excited to join the tour! I just went for 3nights-tour, but I did visit Paro, Thimpu, Punakha ! Although not every sighting sites that would visit, the important sites would not miss! This is my second time join the tour in this travel agency, and I was satiated with it every time ! They will handle everything well.

What is the Everest Base Camp with Island Peak trek?
The Everest Base Camp with Island Peak trek is a challenging adventure that combines the iconic Everest Base Camp trek with the exhilarating climb of Island Peak (6,189 meters / 20,299 feet). This trek allows you to explore the Everest region and summit a trekking peak, Island Peak, which provides stunning panoramic views of the Himalayan range.
How difficult is the Island Peak climb?
The Island Peak climb is considered a non-technical yet challenging climb. While it doesn't require advanced mountaineering skills, trekkers should have a reasonable level of fitness and be comfortable with the use of crampons, ice axes, and other basic climbing equipment. The altitude and technical terrain make the climb strenuous, but with proper preparation, it is achievable for experienced trekkers.
Do I need previous mountaineering experience for Island Peak?
Previous mountaineering experience is not required for Island Peak, but you should have a good level of fitness and the ability to hike in high altitudes. Basic mountaineering training, such as the use of crampons and ice axes, is provided by the guides before the climb. If you're new to climbing, you should be physically prepared for the physical demands of the trek and summit.
What is the best time to do the Everest Base Camp with Island Peak trek?
The best time for this trek is during the pre-monsoon season (March to May) and post-monsoon season (September to November). These months offer stable weather conditions, clear skies, and moderate temperatures, which are ideal for trekking and climbing.
What should I pack for the trek?
You will need to pack cold weather clothing , trekking gear (boots, crampons, gloves, etc.), climbing gear (ice axe, ropes, etc.), and personal items such as a sleeping bag, camera, and first aid kit. A full packing list will be provided to you before the trek to ensure you have everything needed for a safe and comfortable journey.
What is the cost of the Everest Base Camp with Island Peak trek?
The cost of the trek varies depending on the season, group size, and specific services included. It generally covers accommodation, meals, guides, porters, permits, and domestic flights. Additional costs like personal gear, tips, and beverages are not included. It’s best to inquire with your trekking company for a detailed quote.
Is there a risk of altitude sickness in Island Peak?
Yes, altitude sickness is a risk on any high-altitude trek, especially at altitudes above 3,000 meters. This trek includes acclimatization days to minimize this risk. Symptoms include headaches, dizziness, and shortness of breath. If symptoms become severe, descending to lower altitudes is crucial.
Do I need a guide and porter to climb island peak?
Yes, it is highly recommended to have both a guide and a porter for the Island Peak climb. Here’s why:
1. Guide:
- Technical Expertise : The Island Peak climb involves some technical aspects like using crampons, ice axes, and ropes. A guide will ensure that you are properly equipped and can provide guidance on how to use the climbing gear.
- Safety : A guide is crucial for your safety, especially at high altitudes. They are trained to handle emergency situations and can assist in case of altitude sickness or other issues.
- Navigation : The trail to Island Peak is remote, and a guide will help with route finding and navigating the terrain, especially during the summit attempt.
- Climbing Support : Your guide will lead the summit push, ensuring that you stay on track and at a safe pace. They will assist with technical climbing and ensure you are confident in your ascent.
2. Porter:
- Carrying Gear : A porter will carry your gear and personal items, allowing you to focus on the physical and technical aspects of the climb rather than worrying about a heavy load. This is especially important during the Island Peak climb, where you'll need to conserve your energy for the summit.
- Lightens the Load : As you reach higher altitudes, the physical strain increases. Having a porter will reduce the burden on your body, allowing you to trek and climb more comfortably.
3. Additional Considerations :
- Permit Requirements : For Island Peak, you'll also need to secure a climbing permit, which is typically arranged through your guide or trekking agency.
- Climbing Expertise : Although the climb does not require advanced mountaineering experience, the presence of a guide ensures that you have the necessary knowledge and support to reach the summit safely.
