    Excellent service from arrival to flight to Lukla and return from trek. My guide was terrific and did everything he could do for me reach my goal. My Kathmandu tour guide was perhaps the best guide I’ve ever had. He became a good friend who I stay in contact with.

    EBC tour was great. Sabita was always available to us throughout the tour whenever we needed anything. Our guide Tshiring was excellent throughout the 12 day trek. We would have not completed the trek to EBC without his help and support. I would highly recommend female guide to anyone doing the EBC trek.

    Had an excellent experience travelling and learning all about Nepal with Female Guide Holiday. As a solo female traveler I felt so safe from the moment I arrived. I had an opportunity to visit so many key places and immerse in the culture. Sabita, thank you for sharing your country with me.

    Asked on February 6th, 2023

    I was wondering whether you guys will help us out with booking the flight from Kathmandu to Lhasa? I can't seem to find the direct flight when looking online, do I have to look somewhere special?

    • Female Guide HolidayOperatorWritten February 2023

      Tibet has been closed for two years, and probably it will be planned to open from 15th April 2023 onward. So you can plan for Everest Trek, a helicopter tour, and other trekking instead as Nepal is open to all travelers.

      TravelerWritten February 2023

      Is it certain, that Tibet opens on the 15th of April, to a such a degree that we can already plan and book a trip for November. Because if Tibet doesn't open, we will have to take different flight times into account. Do you already know how much a ticket from Kathmandu to Lhasa will cost?

    • Female Guide HolidayOperatorWritten February 2023

      As of now, we could not calculate the cost of flight tickets, since it has been increased. Once we get official updates we will update you.
