We recommend booking at least 2–3 months in advance, especially for peak season (March–May and September–November). Popular treks like Everest Base Camp fill up quickly. However, we can sometimes accommodate last-minute bookings — contact us and we'll do our best!

We offer a full refund if you cancel 30+ days before the trek start date. Cancellations 15–29 days before receive a 50% refund. Cancellations within 14 days are non-refundable. However, we're always happy to reschedule your trek at no extra cost.

Fitness requirements vary by trek. Easy treks like Langtang Valley need basic fitness. Moderate treks like Annapurna Circuit require regular cardio training 2–3 months prior. Challenging treks like Everest Base Camp demand consistent hiking, running, and stair-climbing exercise for 3–4 months. No prior trekking experience is needed — just good physical conditioning.

Essential packing includes: layered clothing (moisture-wicking base, insulating mid-layer, waterproof outer shell), quality trekking boots, trekking poles, a 35–45L daypack, sleeping bag (rated to -10°C for high-altitude treks), sun protection, and a first aid kit. We provide a detailed packing list upon booking. Gear can also be rented affordably in Kathmandu's Thamel district.

Nepal has two ideal trekking windows: Spring (March–May) — clear skies, blooming rhododendrons, warm temperatures; and Autumn (September–November) — the most popular season with exceptional visibility and crystal-clear mountain views. Winter treks (Dec–Feb) are possible at lower altitudes and offer solitude. Monsoon (June–August) is generally avoided for most high-altitude treks.

Altitude Mountain Sickness (AMS) is a serious concern above 3,000m. Our guides are Wilderness First Aid (WFA) certified and trained to monitor symptoms closely. We follow a strict acclimatization schedule with rest days built in ("climb high, sleep low"). All guides carry pulse oximeters and emergency oxygen. In severe cases, immediate descent and helicopter evacuation is arranged. We strongly advise purchasing comprehensive travel insurance that covers high-altitude evacuation.

Nepal is considered one of the safest adventure travel destinations in Asia. Solo travelers — including women — trek successfully every year. On our group treks, you're never alone. We recommend staying on established routes, keeping emergency contacts updated, and registering with TIMS (Trekkers' Information Management System). Our guides are personally vetted and background-checked for your peace of mind.

Most treks require a TIMS Card (Trekkers' Information Management System) and a National Park / Conservation Area Permit. For example, Everest treks need a Sagarmatha National Park permit, while Annapurna treks need an ACAP permit. Note that some specific areas (like Dolpa) require additional special permits. We handle all permits on your behalf — just provide your passport copy and we take care of the rest.

Most nationalities can obtain a Nepal Tourist Visa on arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport (Kathmandu) or at land border crossings. Fees are approximately $30 for 15 days, $50 for 30 days, $125 for 90 days. You'll need a valid passport (6+ months), passport-size photos, and the visa fee in cash (USD preferred). We provide a complete pre-arrival checklist with your booking confirmation.

Absolutely! Solo travelers are warmly welcomed. You can join one of our scheduled group departures to meet like-minded adventurers, or book a private custom trek with a dedicated guide and porter just for you. Private treks can be customized for pace, itinerary, and dates. We specialize in making solo travel comfortable, social, and safe.
