    Hi, thank you both for uploading such an informative video. We have watched all your EBC videos to obtain as much information as possible as we are doing the trek in November! Yes I guess it’s going to be freezing. We’ve finally got all our cold weather clothes together, snack bars etc, it’s surprising how much you need, thankfully we’ve kept the weight limit to 10kg. Without people like yourself producing these videos, we could have taken unnecessary items. Thanks again, and we look forward to watching more of your videos.

      You guys will just love it. We wish you the best of luck for November and we are super excited for you!
      It sounds like you're both very organised and organisation really does go a long way 👌🏻
      You guys are so sweet for leaving us such positive feedback. We really appreciate it 😁🙏

      Hello there. Heading to EBC in May 24 as well and 66+😊. Q. Do you plan to take pills?
      IMO I want to do without external help😊. Cheers

      @@kapilachandrabharathi7134 Hi there. This is amazing. We hope that you have an amazing trip.
      Yes I totally get it. We were the same and didn't take any altitude tablets with us for the same reason. However most of our group had started taking Diamox in Kathmandu so this was regularly bought up in conversation. Not long after arriving in Namche Bazaar we had slight effects from Altitude. After a little discussion we decided to purchase some from the pharmacy there. There is a proper pharmacy in Namche so you can pick up quite a bit of medication that you may have forgotten you needed 👍🏻
      Personally we feel that it helped us, 2 people in our group made it without Diamox too if this helps 😁

      Thank you so much 😁 Glad you found this helpful! Haha! You will be fine. Expect the worst and it won't feel as difficult 👍🏻 ... In regards to altitude. Drink plenty of water and take it slow. Don't push yourself past your limits. If you need to slow down and take a break, listen to your body. You will be fine.

    Really enjoyed this Vlog of your trip and reviews of the Tea Houses. I go October 1-14. So stoked. Did you go with an Outfitter? If so, who did you use if you don't mind sharing. How was your Hotel Experience when you got back to Khathmandu?? 30 minute HOT Shower??

      Wow! Not long at all then. Super exciting!
      We went with Gadventures who were fantastic.
      The hotel at Kathmandu was absolutely amazing! The best shower of our lives 😂 ... The hotel we stayed in was called "Hotel Traditional Comfort" 👌🏻 ... The shower was about an hour lol 🤣
      Is that Kilimanjaro in your profile picture? We are doing that next year and would love it if you are able to share any top tips with us about your experience... If you don't mind of course? 😁

    Great video guys, very informative, and for people who are about to do this, a worthwhile watch indeed.
    I wish I had done something like this in my younger days.
    800 rupees for a shower? I would say that's money well spent. 😂
    Ooo a pink room, 🤣🤣 I've got something similar at home, but mines a red room 🤣🤣
    Great watch guys. Until the next time 😊

      @NathandHannah  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi there, isn't Namche just awsome. Nope there's plenty of choice for places to stay along the trek apart from Gorak Shep. Some places look nicer than others. All of our accommodation was pre arranged for us by our tour operator. I guess different companies use different contacts.
      We started the trek with no medication at all. Most of our group had started taking diamox in Kathmandu and when we got up to namche we had slight altitude effects, head ache ect. At this point we decided to get some diamox from the pharmacy there and we took 1 tablet a day untill we started to make our way down.

    Hello guys thank you so much for these prices and tips. Can I ask you to price of the stay per night? and is It possible to stay free if you eat your meals in the same tea house?

    • @NathandHannah
      @NathandHannah  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No problem at all, glad that they have been useful 👍
      We booked our trip through G adventures so all of our tea houses were already booked. Im not sure about staying for free but our guide said that the rooms are very cheap as they want you to buy your meals there.

      @NathandHannah  ปีที่แล้ว

      @@cagdasyildirim I'm not sure. I think you will find something if you don't mind not staying exactly where you want to. Gorak shep was full when we went and people were even camping there. You don't necessarily have to stay at gorak shep to get to EBC its just the closest.
      Also you can look into staying at Thukla, is about 3km before Labouche 👍🏻

      Thank you I'm sure I'll be fine! I had a stroke a year and a half and I know have aphasia. I've been watching you because it was so hard I can't read and I can't write so I watched your clothes what shall I wear etc. when I'm starting looking for clothes if a hard for me there's a lot of choice! If you have any suggestion the best ones with first clothes that would be great!! Some things it doesn't make sense for me so if it doesn't make sense I'm sorry 🤦🏼‍♀️

    • @NathandHannah
      @NathandHannah  ปีที่แล้ว

      You're welcome and you will be fine. The guides and your group will be amazing and everyone is routing for one another to succeed 😊
      In regards to clothes... You can buy all things from Go Outdoors or similar stores. A good down jacket and hiking boots are most important.
      I'd suggested you go to Go Outdoors, speak with a member of staff and explain to them the activity you are doing. They will then be able to work out what's best for you and your budget. This is what we did. The hiking will be aware of everything you need to suit this trip 😊

      @NathandHannah  9 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      ​@@dqbydtHi, great question. The answer is a firm no. The tea houses don't supply soap & you will struggle to get running water above 4000m. Pack plenty of baby / sani wipes & hand gell. These will be your beat friends for the 2 weeks 😮😁
