Frequently Asked Questions and General Information
Nepal offers variety of amazing adventure activities, including trekking, climbing, slacklining, camping, running, rafting, and cultural tours. I can guide you or organize you a trip through any of the above, depending on your preference and interests. In addition, yoga, sound healing, and meditation sessions can be arranged upon request.
I offer customized private tours, from one-day hikes to extended treks lasting up to 20 days, depending on your preferences and fitness level. Whether you want a quick escape into nature around Kathmandu (e.g., national parks) or an immersive trek through classic or off-the-beaten-path trails, I’ve got you covered.
Yes, porters are available to carry your gear, typically up to 15-20 kg. This allows you to trek comfortably with just a daypack.
The best times to trek are in spring (March, April, May, and early June) and autumn (September, October, November, early December) when the weather is clear and temperatures are moderate. Off-season trekking (typically in winter or monsoon) has its perks: fewer crowds, lower costs, flexible itineraries, and unique experiences like snowy winter landscapes or vibrant monsoon greenery. However, it may require flexibility as weather conditions can be unpredictable.
Yes, most visitors can easily obtain a visa on arrival at the airport in Kathmandu. I recommend checking the official website for detailed, up-to-date information on fees and requirements: Nepal Immigration – Tourist Visa.
Yes, travel insurance is mandatory. It should cover high-altitude trekking, including helicopter rescue up to 5,500 meters. Please purchase a policy from your home country, as Nepal does not offer mountain rescue insurance.
Fitness requirements vary by trek. Generally, a moderate level of fitness is recommended. If you can comfortably walk for several hours, you’ll be ready for most treks.
Nepal is home to a stunning variety of wildlife, from Himalayan tahr, red pandas, and snow leopards to vibrant bird species along the trekking routes. In national parks like Chitwan and Bardia, you can encounter elephants, tigers, rhinos, crocodiles, and much more.
