The Everest Base Camp trekking and Gokyo trekking follow the same route for around 4 to 7 days (incl the last few days of the return journey).
Since the two routes are very close to each other the scenery has a lot in common.
Most people choose for the Everest Base Camp trekking since for them it is a lifetime wish to go there and see Mount Everest for nearby.
However others say that the view from Gokyo Ri is even more spectacular and trekking further north to the fifth lake is awesome.
If you are able to add a few more days to your adventure you can do both in one trekking. Then you have to cross the challenging Cho La pass. This combination is probably the best choice !
