We recommend that each person carries a basic first aid kit and a list of suggested contents will be sent to you at the time of booking. Full details of application procedure and a visa application form will be sent to you at the time of booking. The amount of extra money you bring is a matter of personal choice but 150- 200 should be more than sufficient to cover monastery entrance fees, the purchase of soft drinks on trek and most souvenirs. In Kathmandu we stay in either the Hotel Marshyangdi or Manang. Both are rated 3 star and are situated on the edge of Thamel within walking distance of the bazaars and restaurants.
Accommodation is on a twin share basis and includes breakfast.
Single rooms are available upon request and payment of a single supplement as quoted in our price list. On trek we stay in lodges which provide comfortable yet rather basic accommodation. Most lodges have electricity, the majority of which is provided by the Micro Hydel Hydro Project at Thame. All sightseeing tours and transfers are by private minibus. Internal flights to and from Lukla are on the scheduled services of one of the airlines operating within Nepal.
