Things that you must know before booking:
To secure your trip, please complete our online booking form. A 25% deposit is required to confirm your booking. This secures your spot and allows us to organize everything.
You can settle the remaining amount upon arrival during the pre-trek briefing sessions or pay via credit card or bank transfer before you head to Nepal.
We accept all major currencies—USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, SGD, CAD—at the exchange rate on the day you make your payment.
HEADS UP: An additional 3.5% bank transaction fee will apply if you make payments by credit or debit card.
Booking tours, treks & activities on time is great. But, at times, you won't be able to manage things. And that's fine.
Here's what you need to know about late booking:
Booking a day or two before the scheduled trip is known as late booking.
Once booking is confirmed the amount won't be refunded. It's non-refundable.
We get it – sometimes things don't go your way and you might need to cancel your trip. That’s okay.

Nothing is more satisfying than a fruitful holiday. It's the one where everything flows smoothly, and everyone is content with the outcome. That's when you'll experience a true fulfilment.
