Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to help you prepare for a mindful and culturally respectful journey.
Modest dress is strictly required. Shoulders and knees must be covered for both men and women. We recommend loose, comfortable clothing. Removing shoes before entering shrines is mandatory.
It depends on the specific trek. For our cultural tours and lower-elevation treks, no prior experience is needed. For advanced base camp treks, previous hiking experience and good cardiovascular fitness are highly recommended.
The best times to visit Nepal are during the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) seasons when the weather is clear and temperatures are moderate. These periods offer the best mountain views.
We accommodate all dietary requirements including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and specific allergies. Please inform us during the booking process so we can make proper arrangements with our partner lodges and restaurants.
Altitude sickness can affect anyone above 2,500 meters. Our itineraries are specifically designed with proper acclimatization days built-in. Our guides are trained in wilderness first aid and always carry oxygen and pulse oximeters on high-altitude treks.
♥ Cultural Respect Guidance
- Always walk clockwise around stupas, prayer wheels, and mani walls.
- Ask permission before photographing local people, monks, or inside temples.
- Do not point the soles of your feet at shrines, people, or religious objects.
- Use both hands when giving or receiving items to show respect.
- Dress modestly (cover shoulders and knees), especially in sacred areas.
- Remove your shoes and hats before entering monasteries, temples, or homes.
- Do not touch people on the head, as it is considered the most sacred part of the body.
