    I had an amazing experience with Nepal Hiking Team. Ramesh our guide was an awesome guide. He knows the mountains in and out. He was always looking out for our well being. He ensured that we had a comfortable pace so that we could complete the trek safely. Ganga also ensured that the whole operation ran smoothly. I would definitely hire them again.

    Judy

    Asked on March 27th, 2025

    I'm planning a trip to EBC nut I wanted to ask about tipping the guide and porter. Do people usually tip "individually" or if there are several people in a group trek - do they give the tip as a group? How much is appropriate for a 15 day trek?

    Tour Details
    Travel Support
    • Nepal Hiking TeamOperatorWritten March 2025

      For your group trek, the total tipping amount for both guides and porters would be approximately USD 300-400 for the group. You will have 1 guide for the group, and for porters, there will be 1 porter for every two trekkers. Each porter would typically be tipped USD 150. The tip can be given as a group tip, and you can distribute it equally among the group members.

    Colin

    Asked on July 28th, 2022

    May I please ask what to expect in terms of day time and night time temperatures for this group tour in mid to late October? What is the recommended packing list? Are some items available for hire?

    Tour Details
    Transport
    • Nepal Hiking TeamOperatorWritten July 2022

      The temperature goes as high as 20 deg C during the daytime and negative 5-6 deg C low at night during the trek at the highest elevation of the trek i.e. Thorong Phedi or High Camp. So please prepare the clothes accordingly. As for packing the gear, we provide a down jacket, sleeping bag, and a duffle bag for the trek. You can buy or hire the rest of the gear in Kathmandu.

      Colin

      TravelerWritten July 2022

      May I ask if a single supplement is available for the hotel part of the trip? Regarding the night time temperatures, are the mountain huts heated? Would someone from your company help me with gear hire in Kathmadu? I haven't hiked in conditions with such a large variation in temperature so I am very unsure as to what the appropriate gear would be! Is there another time of year you recommend when the temperatures are warmer and the views clear?

    • Nepal Hiking TeamOperatorWritten July 2022

      It is possible to add the single supplementary, which costs USD 200 for the trip to Kathmandu/Pokhara and Mountain. So you will get a single room. Of course, we assist you in hiring the gears in Kathmandu. Our guide will assist you in finding the right place. The best time for trekking in Nepal is anytime between Mid-March to May and Mid-Sept -Nov. So you can choose any dates during the timeframe. Unfortunately, mountain huts are not heated. However, there is wooden heating in the restaurant/dining hall.
