Know before you go
  • Insurance- travel insurance is more of a mandatory thing to do before travelling anywhere. Do not forget to mention the maximum altitude you will reach because insurance varies and depends upon the height or elevation. You can always get more ideas about travel insurance from travel agencies or insurance companies themselves. You can also get one from any travel agency. 
  • Visa and passports- for all foreigners besides Indians, you will need a valid visa and valid passport to visit anywhere in Nepal. You can have your Nepalese visa at Tribhuwan international airport in Kathmandu. You will also need two passport-sized photographs for trekking permits.
