Mt. Everest

Worth it if you're genuinely committed to mountaineering and have serious cash—the 4.9 rating from nearly 4,300 reviews suggests the climb itself delivers, but paid entry plus guide fees mean you're looking at substantial cost. For most 18-35s, a Viator trek to base camp (103 options available) is the honest sweet spot: you get the mountain experience without the life-threatening bits or the six-figure price tag.
