Know before you go

• When planning a vacation and booking any type of holiday package with any trekking or travel agency, there are certain things you need to know about the company you choose to travel with. Is the company genuine or registered with government authorities? Are they financially secure? Does the company insure staff against accidents? Is the company environmentally conscious?
• Many companies may be running a business without observing the country's legal formalities - some whose licenses have expired are still operating illegally.
• Additionally, it has been found that some tour operators abroad have been directly operating tours and trekking without the required governmental licenses and without paying the appropriate taxes. Similarly, many individuals and freelancers have been found to be operating trekking trips illegally by creating websites or contacting others personally.
• Finally, if you book your trip with an unauthorized agency in Nepal or abroad, you may face trouble and many risks during your time in Nepal. To protect yourself from these problems, you are kindly requested to check the company before booking any trip so that you can make your holiday more enjoyable and memorable.
• Always use a reputable trekking company, as there have been reports of rogue guides robbing trekkers in remote areas.
  Take a guide and ensure your trekking guide or company is registered with the Trekking Agency Association of Nepal.
  Ensure that your trekking guide or company has registered your trek with the Trekkers Information Management System (TIMS).
• Never trek alone.
• Ensure someone at home has a copy of your itinerary and the contact details of your travel agent.
• Call or email home to let people know you are all right if your plans change.
• Never venture from your planned route or itinerary without advising someone or leaving a message to explain your plans.
  Following these simple procedures ensures that a holiday in Nepal will be a safer and more rewarding experience. Making family and friends aware of the itinerary prevents undue worry, especially when travelling in a remote part of the world.
