    FAQs

    A:  Totally get it, altitude is a real thing! But, this Phaplu route is actually better for acclimatization than flying straight to Lukla.  We gain altitude gradually over 20 days, with rest days built-in.  We'll monitor you closely, and our guides are experts at spotting and managing altitude sickness.  Listen to your body, drink lots of water, and you'll be in good hands!
