How are the rooms allocated?

This tour runs on a twin sharing basis. Solo travellers will be roomed with a fellow group member of the same gender, and if this option is not available then you will have a room to yourself. To guarantee a private room you will need to select the single supplement option for an additional cost.

What cultural differences should I be aware of when visiting Nepal?

As a multicultural country, Nepal respects people of all faiths, creeds and cultures and definitely expects the same from the visitors too. There are no such restrictions or limitations on your activities, except those considered illegal and immoral. That being said, public displays of affection are somewhat unacceptable in Nepal, and in order to feel comfortable and attract fewer stares, females may wish to wear long sleeves, especially in more remote areas.

Can I pay by card in Nepal?

Most places in the city will allow you to pay by card, however, there will usually be a surcharge of around 4% on top of your billed amount.

Can I withdraw money from ATMs in Nepal?

ATM counters are relatively common in cities and will incur a charge of about 4 USD per transaction.

Can I exchange other currencies in Nepal?

Nepal Rastra Bank decides the exchange rate, however, when you exchange the currencies in a money changer, you will get lower rates than those listed on the bank’s website.

What currency is used in Nepal?

Nepal uses Nepali Rupees. 1USD will be more or less equivalent to 100 Nepali Rupees, however, exchange rates fluctuate every now and then.

Can you tell me more about the accommodations?

While in the cities you will be staying in good tourist class hotels, with the option to upgrade for an additional cost. Please contact our Travel Experts to arrange this.

Do I need travel insurance for this tour?

All travellers are required to have travel insurance for this trip.

Is this a guided tour?

This is a guided tour, and passengers can expect to be accompanied by an expert guide. They will provide background knowledge of the sites visited and ensure everything runs smoothly for the duration of the trip.

What is the mode of transportation for the tour?

The tour is an overland trip, and you will have a private air-conditioned vehicle for the duration of the tour.

Everything went smoothly from the initial day of meeting and discussing the itinerary to the final moment of being helped with my airport taxi. Hari and Krishna customized an extra day and summit since I had more time than the designed trek. The gradual increase in elevation and pace were just right to acclimatize. I am happy I chose this guiding service and the Langtang Valley trek, such a majestic natural area with wonderful peaks without the crowds. I reached my highest elevation ever.. My guide Krishna took care of all the logistics, checked on my needs regularly, and handled all the meal ordering, allowing me to just be in the here and now and soak in the experience. Highly recommended trek and guiding service!

What an amazing experience! Himalayana Heart Treking went above and beyond to ensure we were accommodated and comfortable with our trek. Greeting us with smiling faces despite our delay at Kathmandu airport and making sure we were in good hands our entire trip. Our guide - Kanchha and porter were most gengorous and supportive. My son got altitude sickness when we hit Lobuche and our guide and porter were so accommodating and ensured his health and safety came first. We had a collegue who suggested we take coloured pens, lollies and chocolate to hand out to the village kids as we treked - they absoluted loved this! Despite our trip being cut short - it was 100% wotrth the experience.
