We will not charge for any overhead expenses. There will be no hidden or extra costs. This means we can still offer top quality service and facilities at a competitive price to exceed your expectations. The trip cost includes your accommodation, local flight, private transportation, climb and trek permit, National park or conservation fees to all meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner) while on trek - each trek page has a list of exactly what’s included and not included so please check the ‘includes and excludes’ section.

In general trekking trips in Nepal have a standard format - meals in Kathmandu aren’t included in costs, but meals on the trek are. Drinks aren’t included anywhere.

The only thing all trekkers are asked for is a tip for the Nepali staff at the end of the trek - everyone chips in to a pot which is distributed by the local trip organiser or Sirdar. This could be anything from $20 to $100 or more depending on the length of the trip, but is entirely at your discretion and confidential. This happens on every trip in Nepal, regardless of the operator.

Yes you can; there are plenty of ATMs throughout Kathmandu and Pokhara. But before leaving for Nepal, it could be a good idea to inform your bank that you will be making a transaction in Nepal. Some banks are very cautious about this.

There are virtually no ATMs in the countryside!

An initial trip confirmation deposit of US$ 400 only (US$ four hundred) per person has to be deposited by bank / wire transfer. The remaining payment can be paid on arrival in Kathmandu in cash or through a Credit card, though the bank charges an extra 3.75% as VISA / MASTER card transaction fees. Banks do not accept ‘Debit’ card payments.

Please ask us for bank details. You can also use Western Union, for which we’ll supply you with the details.
