April 12-28, 2025 Do you desire to walk among the tallest mountains on Earth and see mount Everest with your own eyes? If so, we hope you’ll join us on this epic journey to Nepal. The Everest Base Camp Trek is a bucket list item for every seasoned trekker and is sure to be one of the most memorable experiences of your life. Far from the rush of the modern world, you will settle into a simple daily rhythm on the trail that is immensely enjoyable. Our experienced local guide team will take excellent care of us. The warmth of the Nepali people and the insight into their culture will add a deeper dimension to the journey. The camaraderie within the group that gradually develops on the trail and the unexpected friendships you form with the locals you meet will be highlights of traveling in this wonderful country. In the evenings we will stay in Nepalese mountain lodges where we will enjoy hot meals and a fun communal atmosphere shared by people from all around the world. In addition to enjoying the splendors of Nepal we will be giving back to the local communities. A portion of your ticket will be donated to a primary school that we will visit on the first day of our trek. We are also partnering with a local organization to remove trash from the Everest region. Each trekker will receive a dry bag to fill with trash and bring back to Lukla. Trekking to Everest Base Camp will test your physical and mental strength - and it will be worth every moment! Join Melanie and her posse of wanderers on this journey to Nepal.

Join us for an epic adventure to a remote and absolutely stunning part of the world - Patagonia. Our trip starts in Puerto Natales, Chile, a quaint fishing village and the trekking hub for Torres del Paine National Park. On our first day together we jump right into Patagonian culture by taking a ferry through a fjord to an “estancia.” Spend the day bonding with the group while learning how this authentic ranch has operated for six generations. Pick your choice of horseback riding or trekking followed by a traditional lamb BBQ lunch. Next we will prepare for our “W” Trek! This is truly one of the world’s greatest trekking experiences. On our first day in the national park we will go ice trekking on Glacier Gray, a truly spectacular experience. Our "W" continues as we cheer each other on while hiking 50 miles over 5 days through jaw-dropping landscapes. We spend each evening in cozy mountain lodges enjoying home-cooked meals and living our best adult summer camp lives. Our trek concludes with a sunrise hike to the famous Towers and what is sure to be one of the proudest moments of your life. Celebrate with the group one last time before heading home with new friends and a lifetime of beautiful memories from Patagonia.
