I will be 60 next year and I am in excellent health. However, my stamina is not the best. What kind of shape does one need to be in for this tour?

This trip is rated as demanding - Some high-altitude hikes or more strenuous activities, but accessible to most healthy travellers.

I have a question concerning the meaning of "active" physical rating in Nepal adventure trip there are 3 days of trekking, what is the level required?

This is an active trip that involves a number of days of hiking. The hikes will be around 5-8hrs per day and approximately 8-12km a day will be spent hiking.

I'm looking for Nepal 21st October to 31st October. I would like a few days hiking and with a Chitwan National Park. But looking for a white water rafting day or 2 as well? Do you do this?

The October 1st - 10th departure is our only October departure for this tour. This adventure does not offer white water rafting as an excursion, but we can always add extra nights in Kathmandu if you would like to arrange a day trip independently before this trip begins.

How many miles do you walk each day and what do you do with your luggage? Do you have to carry your food and sleeping materials?

A porter is assigned to every two travellers; your trekking gear will be carried by the porter in a water proof duffel. The maximum the porters are allowed to carry is 7.5kg/16.5lb per passenger. Some of your luggage can be left in Pokhara. You will need a day pack/bag to carry water, cameras and other electronics. During the trek, you do not need to carry food and sleeping materials.

do I need a sleeping bag liner? What things do I need to pack to have a good experience? Is a backpacking backpack the best choice of luggage for the trip? How strenuous is the physical activity on this tour? Will the paragliding and Everest flight be possible during monsoon season?

We suggest packing lightly. A backpack of small to medium size is recommended. Suitcases are not recommended. You will need a day pack to carry water, cameras, and electronics. A sleeping bag liner is recommended. During trekking, a porter is assigned to every two travelers and will carry your trekking gear in a waterproof duffel. The maximum weight for porters is 7.5kg/16.5lb per passenger. Pack lightweight, quick-drying wool or synthetic layers. Bring hiking boots, thermal base layers, waterproof rain gear, and warm clothing for cold weather.

Does the trek visit the Poon hill?

This tour does not visit Poon Hill.

Are there any shoes and clothing that I can hire for the trek?

Hiring clothing and footwear is not possible for this tour.

Where can I find more detailed information about this tour?

A trip note - which contains essential information about your trip will be given to you. Information such as the daily itinerary, where to meet on the first day, what time the trip starts, how to get to the joining point hotel, included activities, visa information, etc will be mentioned in there. Please contact us for this.

The information prior the tour was unclear, in-complete or incorrect. The tight time schedule doesn’t allows to visit/book optional activities. The trek requires physical fitness above the average. If you haven’t been to the gym twice a week in the past 6 months this trip is not for you. During the trekking There is no time to enjoy the views. The trekking is like a running on a marathon. The second day the trekking is going forward and back on the same track. No adventures - only getting tired. There are lots of leaches - if you are suffer of hemophilia or emtomophobia this trip is not recommended. Mast have a sleeping bag insert.Show more
