Asked on January 15th, 2025Can we do this tour in the reverse direction than it is listed?
Intrepid TravelOperator•Written January 2025Unfortunately, we don't have any other tours that connect Kathmandu and China, so unable to do it in reverse.

Asked on February 4th, 2024Could you please let me know what provisions are made by the tour company for people who may get altitude sickness.
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written February 2024
Parts of your trip go above 2800 metres / 9200 feet where it is common for travellers to experience some adverse health effects due to the altitude. Before your trip, discuss pre-existing medical conditions with your doctor. While our group leader has basic first aid training, it is very important that you monitor your health and seek assistance accordingly.
