The Sherpa Everest trip that I was on was just excellent. The Aussies , the leaders, cook, sherpas and porters were the best. I just wish we could have had one more beautiful day in Namche so we could have gone to the Everest Hotel. One of the days we walked through 7-8 inches of snow and unfortunately we did not see the mountains. That was a day to remember. The next day it was unbelievably clear in Namche but we had to start our return towards Lukla. All in all, it was great trip.
I was amazed how well I did on the Sherpa Everest trip and I believe the Aussies and the leader were amazed too. I believe it was the way the sherpas lead us up the hills. A nice slow and steady pace along with staying in Namche for two days. Keep up the good work.
Travel Green
Neutralise Your Air Travel
Global Warming is an issue that concerns us all. With more people flying more often, travellers around the world must take responsibility for the impact they have on the environment. If you are committed to environmentally responsible travel, like we are at World Expeditions, we strongly encourage you to offset your carbon emmissions that result when you fly.
When you book your trip with us, we we will include the cost to offset one tonne of carbon toward your carbon emmissions while travelling. We have engaged respected carbon neutral service provider Climate Friendly for this purpose who calculate emmisison based on factors from the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and Greenhouse Gas Protocol. Air travel emissions, in paticular, are complex calculations and values vary between providers. We believe that Climate Friendly's methodology is the most accurate available and reflects the current scientific consensus.
Recently Climate Friendly was named as one of the four most credible flight neutralising companies in the world by an independent study done by Tufts University. Click here to view the Report.
The integrity and quality of Climate Friendly’s service has attracted a host of progressive companies, government bodies and leading environment groups from all across the world, including WWF internationally, Australian Conservation Foundation, Tim Flannery and Greenpeace.
Your one tonne offset goes to Climate Friendly who support renewable energy projects like wind and solar energy that directly address the root cause of global warming through immediately replacing fossil fuels with clean energy production. So you can be assured that when you choose to participate in our offset program you’re accelerating the transition to a clean energy future and contributing to the long-term solutions of climate change.
