Mount Everest, known to locals as Sagarmatha, is undoubtedly on the bucket list of every climber. Who wouldn't want to conquer the highest mountain on the planet? Reaching the top of the world, exactly 8,848.86m above sea level, is no easy task, but Elite Exped’s expert team will be with you every step of the way - guiding you from the moment you sign up, all the way to the summit and back.
The ultimate mountaineering adventure
Royal Nepal Group’s experience on the world’s highest mountain is unparalleled. Our leaders have set multiple world records on its slopes, including breaking a speed record for climbing Everest and Lhotse back to back in 2017. Our industry-leading expertise isn’t just based on climbing fast, however - it’s been accumulated over long years of guiding on Everest in all conditions. Our handpicked team of guides has chalked up dozens of successful summits between them.
They also have years of experience fixing ropes on the route, as well as working as Icefall Doctors - arguably the most difficult job of all, establishing and maintaining routes through the ever-changing Khumbu Icefall.
Royal Nepal Group offers a tailored Everest expedition based on guides’ own, hyper-efficient expedition plans - the ones that enabled them to break those speed records. We tackle Everest from the south - the safer side of the mountain, with higher success rates. The 55-day package is designed with plenty of rest days and time for acclimatization built-in, as well as a lengthy, 42-day period for climbing the mountain itself.
We oversee every step of our own logistical operations. Rather than relying on others, we control everything that can be controlled to ensure that we meet the very highest safety standards. Our founders’ Nepalese heritage and ability to bridge the gap between Western and Himalayan climbing cultures allows us to run every aspect of our operation smoothly, without fear of misunderstandings. The success of our approach is evident in our founder Nimsdai’s own achievements, including his 100 percent success rate on 8,000m climbs.
As well as being highly-skilled mountaineers, our guides have extensive experience in conducting high-altitude rescue operations. We have evacuation plans and accessible helicopter rescue in place for emergencies. No one can cater to every eventuality in the world’s most extreme environments, but we can guarantee that you will be in the safest possible hands should something unexpected happen.
We don’t see our clients as clients - we see them as friends and fellow high-achievers. People who, like us, have made chasing their dreams a priority. We know why you climb because we feel the same way. That means we’ll make sure no stone is left unturned in our quest to help you achieve those dreams. We know how it feels to stand on top of the world. It’s our dream to be able to share that with you.
