- Kathmandu: If you’re on the Delhi to Kathmandu Quest trip, you’ll have a Trip Manager with you.For Nepal Trek & Temples and Nepal Trek Challenge there isn’t a Contiki Trip Manager because these treks are conducted by our trusted third party operator. But don’t worry, you’ll still have an experienced local guide with you.
- Kathmandu: Nepal Trek and Temples You don’t have to do any strenuous training for these treks. But they definitely involve walking 3-6 hours a day on an average. You’ll have a porter who’ll carry your backpacks and other essentials. But since there isn’t any road access during the trek, you’ll have to finish the trek in its entirety once you start. Nepal Trek Challenge We recommend that you consider some additional training before you join us at Nepal (unless you’re a seasoned hiker, of course). Training to walk uphill is a good idea. You’ll have a porter who’ll carry your backpacks and other essentials. But since there isn’t any road access during the trek, you’ll have to finish the trek in its entirety once you start.
- Delhi: You’ll be travelling through many types of weather. So, don’t forget some essentials like a daypack and rucksack, plenty of t-shirts and trousers, comfortable hiking boots, jogging suits, and a good cap (or hat in the summer).A warm jacket, some insect repellent, sun protection, woollen items, a good torch with batteries are essential too. And also don’t forget to get a sleeping bag with inner liners for all those days you’ll spend camping in the Himalayas!
Are you ready to experience the unique beauty of the Nepalese Himalayas? This hefty but rewarding hike will see you hiking up high, through Noak forests and mountainside villages, with plenty of golden sunsets and mesmerising Himalayan panoramas along the way. The trek is tough, but as you reach the Sarangkot viewpoint and spot the world famous Annapurna peaks ahead, you'll realise it was all worth it.

How much money do I need to bring with me?
Your personal budget obviously depends on your spending habits and what is included in your trip cost. If accommodation is included, but meals are not, we would suggest that you bring around 30 USD per day per person for meals. Having a hot shower or charging your device sometimes costs extra. There are also sometimes small crafts/souvenirs to buy along the trekking route which you may want to bring extra money for. Also, consider whether you would be staying in Kathmandu or Pokhara before or after your trek.
- Is quarantine in Nepal in effect for arriving visitors?
-
How much should my backpack weigh?
A properly packed backpack (not including your day pack) should ideally not weigh more than 13 kg. It is also important to note that if you are taking a flight to the start of your trek, many smaller aircraft have weight restrictions. For example, if you are flying from Kathmandu to Lukla, you are only allowed 10kg of checked luggage, and 5 kg of hand baggage. Thus, in case of a small flight, you should ideally pack a 10 kg backpack for checked luggage, and then add 5 kg in your hand baggage. You can then re-shuffel the weigt once you start your trek at the trailhead.
- Do I need a porter?
-
Do I require a porter for carrying water?
On most popular treks you can expect plenty of places where you can refill your water bottle, meaning you don’t need to carry a huge water supply with you. Bring an extra bottle of water if you are concerned. If you already have a porter, you can ask him/her to carry water as long as it is within the weight limit. Another option is to carry water purification tablets or LifeStraw, both of which can be found in Kathmandu.
