There are smaller altitude variations on some of them, which are not very difficult. Keep hydrated, get plenty of sleep and discuss your health issues with your doctor before you head out.
The weather in Nepal varies according to the change of season and location. Spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November) are the most appropriate seasons when the weather is clear and the temperature is not too high. During the daytime, Kathmandu and Pokhara tend to have temperatures between 15-25 °C, and Chitwan might be warmer. There is a monsoon season (June-August), and it can be expected to be very heavy and can interfere with travel. Layers of packing and a light jacket in case of cool mornings and evenings.
In Nepal, culture and religion are abundant and therefore, dress modestly when attending temples. Bring up your shoulders and knees. Leave off shoes when in holy places. Courteous treatment is valued. One is expected to greet others with a polite saying of Namaste. Ask them to take photos of themselves before taking pictures of people, particularly in the countryside.
Tipping is expected and welcomed, but optional. A 10 to 15 per cent tip is considered normal in a restaurant when one does not receive service. NPR 100-200/day is the average payment to hotel staff. Per day, guides and drivers receive tips of NPR500-1000 and NPR300- 500, respectively.
Generally, Nepal is safe, though watch your environment. Please do not walk at night alone, lock your valuables, and know what is going on in the neighborhood. Always listen to the directions of your guide and particularly when you are out on safaris and activities of adventure.
The currency of Nepal is the Nepalese Rupee (NPR). There are ATMs, banks, and currency exchange counters in big cities, and even in rural territories, it is best to use cash. Hotels and restaurants accept credit cards; however, always have some cash to make smaller purchases.
This tour is conducted in a private and comfortable car and it includes domestic flights. Some roads may be winding, particularly in mountainous regions, and this is the reason why you must always wear a seatbelt. Tourists should not use public transport and use taxis and rickshaws (but within short distances).
Electricity in Nepal is 230 V, 50 Hz and has Type C plugs, Type D plugs, and Type M plugs. Include a universal adapter and a power bank because in rural areas, there is a risk of power outages.
Huge festivals such as Dashain, Tihar, and Holi are lively and can compromise on services and sightseeing. Make cheques ahead of time, because there are places which are shut during public holidays.
Nepali cuisine consists of dal bhat, momo and sel roti. Dine in well-known restaurants so as not to have stomach complications, and consume bottled water. There are large quantities of vegetarian and vegan choices.
Itinerary changes may occur due to weather, particularly when it is the monsoon season. Other plans will be provided where feasible. Weather-unrelated cancellations can be charged. It is always advisable to read about cancellation policies before booking.
The official language is Nepali, although English is commonly used in tourist regions. There is high coverage of mobile services in urban areas and negligible coverage in rural areas. Most hotels have Wi-Fi, and local SIM cards can be bought to ensure proper communication.
Be culturally sensitive: Greetings, respectful attire, and polite behavior are expected. Avoid public displays of affection, and never touch anyone's head, as it is considered sacred.
