What level of fitness do you need to have for this trip?

This tour is rated 3 out of 5 on Intrepid's physical rating system so it is recommended that all travellers taking it be at a medium level of fitness. They have also advised us of a few notes that you can see below: - Nepali infrastructure is still returning to normal after last year's earthquake, so some delays are inevitable. Embracing the slow pace and meditative atmosphere will go a long way toward your enjoyment of this beautiful country. - This trip does not go to high altitude, so acclimatizing will be relatively easy. Please ensure you speak to your leader if you have issue swimming prior to the rafting activity - The guesthouse at Nuwakot has steep, narrow stairs up to the rooms.

Is the single supplement a mandatory requirement on this tour?

Most Intrepid travellers are in fact solo, and they don't charge a mandatory single supplement if you’re happy to share a room with a traveller of the same gender. However, if you want your own room, you can mention it to us and we will be able to add it onto your package for an additional charge.

What sort of accommodation is available?

This is a wonderful trip with Intrepid tours and you'll stay in a range of accommodations: ''Camping (with basic facilities) (1nt), Farmstay (2nt), Guesthouse (2nt), Hotel (3nt), Resort (1nt) Accommodation at local lodges - better known as teahouses - are simple but comfortable. Toilets and washing facilities are shared and rudimentary, and the food is plain and filling. In a teahouse, passengers are provided with small twin share rooms with twin beds, mattresses and pillows. At times, in high seasons, and in places where there are limited number of teahouses, passengers have to make do with dormitories. In some places, teahouses don't have access to electricity, depending on solar powered lighting instead. In more remote regions, teahouses don't have running water and toilets can mean just a hole in the ground. Hot shower facilities are available in some teahouses for a price but in most of the places, a hot shower means a bucket.
