Bring Official Papers
Some of the required official documents are your valid passport, 4 extra passport-sized photographs (for trekking permits), travel insurance, airline tickets, and luggage tags. Visas can be obtained upon entry into Nepal. For detailed information, we request you to visit our visa page.
Money & Credit card Info
We find that most of the credit card, master, and visa card is blocked by your card provider. It may be because of security reasons. It, sometimes, may bring you into the problematic situation that you can't get money from ATMs and that you find it difficult to pay for your treks and tour. To find yourself free from this problem, you can call your card provider before you travel to Nepal and inform them there that you are traveling to Nepal. Ensure they give the authorization for the payment. In Nepal, you have to pay a 3.5 % credit card commission s per Nepal Bank rules, on top of your payable amount for the trek cost. So, please be sure that you bring some cash in USD to pay us. Likewise, be sure you have brought some small amount for your daily expenses as well as for those items which are not included in our cost. We request you not to change money at the Airport. The exchange rate is very low there. Our office provides you with the facility to change your money. Or, you can take help from Money Changers in Thamel.

Buying and Renting Equipment in Kathmandu
It is not really necessary to spend a large amount of money buying extra equipment and clothing prior to your trip. It is because most of the trekking equipment can be hired from many adventure shops within Kathmandu. Most of the gear is locally manufactured (hence a lot cheaper). Some Chinese gear is likely to be more expensive but qualitative. A sleeping bag and down jackets are easily rented. Each item can be rented for less than USD 1, for a day. You have to manage other items by buying them yourself. However, these items are more likely to be cheaper than those in your hometown. We will arrange all the necessary items you need on the second day of your arrival.
