Off course Everest is cold but also sunny and windy in day time. During the winter season January and February, you will need warm clothes worn inside. Also you need wind cheater, gloves, neck mufflers and warm comfortable shoes.

Even though we fly 4-5 people from Kathmandu, we will run 2 shuttles with 3 people from Pheriche or Syangboche to Everest Base Camp (Kalapatthar). So every passenger will get chance to enjoy the incredible views from their seats.

5 to 10 minutes ground time for photo and video.

We can spend just 5 to 10 minutes only which is more than enough time for us to enjoy the incredible sight & scenery of majestic mountains views. Due to the high altitude threat, longer time is not recommended.

Off course yes, we always have an oxygen cylinder if necessary.
