Nepal ›› Know before you travel

Safety
Before you leave home, we help you prepare, with concise information about the terrain, the climate, local customs, etc. You can enjoy the sometimes high altitude conditions without discomfort as our guides have been trained in mountain safety and first aid procedures. We are in constant communication with our field offices and monitor all aspects of government policy and weather that may affect your trip. We are on-call 24 hours a day. You can rest assured that Tibet Holidays Travel & Adventure has one of the best safety records anywhere. In the unlikely event of an emergency, helicopter rescue is available during treks and expeditions.

Cusine and Food
We provide fresh, hygienically prepared food served by our private cooks during trekking, expeditions & safaris. You can have Nepali, Chinese, Italian and as well as Western meals. Beverages include coffee, hot chocolate, tea and Nepali Tea (Milk Tea). Our locally produced food is free of chemicals and pesticides.

Health and comfort
We pay attentions to your level of physical fitness and your appetite for endurance and adventure, and plan your itinerary accordingly. If you are part of a group, we do our best to ensure that you are neither over stretched or held back by incompatible companions.

Equipments
Our equipment is state of the art and carefully maintained. For example, we use the superb North Face VE-25 tent and have the latest bikes, rafts and trekking equipment.

Accomodation
Both in the cities and outlying areas, we have long- standing relationships with the owners and managements of Nepal's network of hotels and inns, and can arrange excellent accommodation at advantageous tariffs, from simple accommodation in remote villages to the five star hotels of Kathmandu and Pokhara.

Environmental Concern
Camping is the preferred way to enjoy one of the most beautiful and fragile spots on earth, because it allows you to be close to nature. Your sensitivity for your surrounding will influence others and your team will help with these simple guidelines

    * Do not leave anything except your footprints on the trail, and do not take away anything except photos.
    * Use bio-degradable or burnable disposables.
    * Do not leave waste burning on a site. Bag and remove plastic and tins for disposal later.
    * Ensure that toilets are dug at least 50 meters from the camp, and cover with earth on departure.
