Marc h 2005 EBC Trekking company needed and information

[SH]

I have a group of 3 to 4 persons travelling between March 11th to April 2nd of 2005. We probably would be most interested in a 14 to 16 day Everest Base Camp trek. We would prefer teahouses. Please forward price, itenerary, and what is included with the price.

Is it safe to travel without a guide? Are teahouses readily available in March?

Thanks for the information

Opinions vary widely about using a guide, porters etc. I prefer to trek with a local, but you can trek to EBC or Gokyo wihout a guide. Please have a look at the website below for an analysis of various options for trekking

The trek is safe in terms of personal threat from other people, but it requires care in planning as altitude can be a problem. 14-16 days is a realistic timeframe allowing for acclimatization.

[Trekking Guide]

Dear SH,
Hopefully, from this coming Sunday every destination Buses will be run as usual. I am getting information from Balaju center Bus station Bus company Association actually Maoist had sent request appeal to stop Buses till to Sunday than after Sunday buses will regular moves to the every destination. So, I have plan to sent my guest to the EBC trek from starting Jiri way. Before send them, I tried to collect information of security before Lukla, actually everything is normal and Maoist not doing anything against to the tourist. So, please feel free to start your trip to the Everest from Jiri no problem but you most negotiate that little donation during the trip.
Anyway, If you feel need some more information from me welcome to the details of mine: ww.independent-trekkingguide-nepal.com
