Frequently asked questions

The following frequently asked questions may help answer any queries you have about Elite Exped, as well as help explain what this expedition involves and what is required.

If your question isn’t answered here, then please check our dedicated FAQ support page, and don’t hesitate to get in touch.

What skillset and fitness level are required?

All Elite Exped expeditions are within extremely high altitude environments, with differing requirements when it comes to the ability needed.

Due to the nature of the elements involved, you must provide concise, honest descriptions of relevant experience and current fitness levels.

Upon receipt, we will review your experience and respond accordingly. At this point, if we consider there to be any shortfalls, we can collectively discuss the opportunities and/or provide a training support plan to achieve your goals.

What equipment is provided?

All communal equipment is included, such as high quality ropes, stoves and tents. You are responsible for personal gear and clothing, such as harnesses, crampons, helmets and ice axes.

A full essentials list and advice (if required) will be provided at the time of booking.

Will Nims or Mingma David be my guide?

Nimsdai and Mingma David lead many of our expeditions, but this does depend on their availability.

To guarantee them as your personal guide, you will need to enquire with our team.

What transport is included?

We will cover all transport costs detailed within an expedition program as mentioned on our provided itinerary.

This excludes international flights to and from the destination countries. It is your responsibility to ensure these align with the start and finish of the expedition.

Please contact our team to learn more about these packages.

Requirements

There’s no doubt that climbing Mount Everest is a significant endeavour, but with our expert guidance, achieving this goal may be easier than you think. We would expect anyone joining our Everest expedition to have already climbed multiple 6,000m and 7,000m peaks, as well as a 8,000m peak.

Our team will look at your previous experience and analyse key performance data that you’ll share when you sign up. We can then recommend preliminary climbs in the years and months leading up to this expedition, to give you the best possible chance of reaching your goal, if required.

Equipment

Summiting Everest naturally requires using specialist equipment. We will provide a full kit list for the expedition during booking.

Alternatively, you can access it now by downloading here.

Payment

You may pay your deposit and balance using any lawful means. If sending money by electronic bank transfer, you will be responsible for covering the cost of any associated fees so that we receive the full amount.

Cancellation

There are no refunds for the deposit or balance payments for this expedition. This includes but is not limited to expeditions that conclude without reaching or making progress towards the expedition’s objective(s) (for example, reaching the summit) due to:

Route conditions
Weather
Insufficient manpower
Any other factor outside the control of Elite Exped

The expedition leader has the final say on the expedition conclusion and will make all best efforts towards reaching expedition objective(s) within our margin of safety. Participants that choose to leave an active expedition for any reason are not entitled to any refunds.

Elite Exped highly recommends trip cancellation insurance for all expeditions. Due to the nature and heavy costs of government and operator permits, Elite Exped must adhere to a stringent refund policy deposit due with registration materials. As part of this, all balances are due 120 days prior to the departure date unless otherwise specified. Participants whose balances are not received by the 120-day deadline risk forfeiture of their funds and their place on the expedition.

Insurance

All Elite Exped clients require appropriate insurance for their chosen expedition. Please ensure your policy covers helicopter and medical rescue, as well as repatriation costs.

Elite Exped’s has a long-standing operational partnership with Global Rescue, the world’s leading membership organisation providing medical security, travel risk and crisis response services to travellers worldwide. Because of our history of operating side-by-side with Global Rescue, we recommend our clients register with them. Our close working relationship helps smooth the process of any potential rescue, saving valuable time that can affect the outcome.

Global Rescue membership starts at US$119 for individual trips — for comparison, an emergency evacuation could cost you more than US$100,000.

Why choose Himalayan Fox?

Unparalleled leadership

Nimsdai Purja, Mingma David Sherpa’s and Mingma Tenzi’s mountaineering groundbreaking records speak for themselves, but our leaders are more than just supremely talented climbers.

While some choose to direct operations from back office, our three directors lead from the front. Their experience in every aspect of guiding and climbing — from fixing ropes to organising logistics — is unparalleled. It’s no surprise that they have the industry-leading success rate when it comes to summiting 8,000m peaks.

Beyond this, our handpicked team of guides have also chalked up dozens of successful summits between them.

Safety through self-sufficiency

If it’s controllable we control it: this is key to attaining and maintaining our industry-leading strategy for success and safety.

We maximise our options, agility and responsiveness by running self-sufficient expeditions that don’t rely on any other teams to achieve our objectives.

Our team is capable of setting up our own fixed lines (with a proven track record on all 8,000m peaks) and has backups to cover all scenarios. These include everything from secondary oxygen supplies to the ability and experience to operate our own rescue missions if the situation arises.

A unique perspective

With his Nepalese roots and UK residency, our co-founder Nimsdai Purja brings a unique perspective and an unparalleled ability to bridge the gap between Western and Himalayan climbing cultures.

We can assemble trusted teams and networks anywhere in the world, but our founders’ roots are a particular advantage when it comes to summiting the world’s very highest peaks.

An intimate knowledge of how things work on the ground ensures that everything runs smoothly when you’re 8,000m above sea-level.

Client Review

Failure is NOT an option with Nims and the team. He taught me that giving up is NOT an option. All his team were going to the summit. 100% success. This is the Elite way.

From start to finish I have felt like part of a family, Elite takes care of their clients and provides the highest quality mountaineering experience you can get. I can’t wait to be back climbing with Elite Exped and visiting my new family again!!

We could not have been in safer hands. Everything was conducted to the highest standard. I had complete confidence in the safety system on the mountain at all times. This is such a huge thing to commend Elite on - and also a key reason we all reached the summit and returned safely.
