Nepal trekking tour, Langtang, Gosainkund & Helambu

Planet

This tour has been designed to avoid domestic flights between Kathmandu and Pokhara. We feel this provides a much better experience, allowing you to see more of the country you are travelling through, whilst also reducing CO2 emissions.

Our Nepal guides are strict in monitoring and preventing littering to protect the sites we visit and waste bins are provided in all vehicles. We also strongly recommend the use of filtered or purified water instead of purchasing bottled water en-route and thereby adding to the already large problem of plastic waste in the mountains. All travellers are encouraged to bring their own refillable water bottles, though these are readily available in Kathmandu too and we are rolling out a program of providing large water canisters in our vehicles on group tours to take refills from. We are also offering water filtering bottles to travellers, all of which can vastly reduce waste generated by our customers both during the tour and on an ongoing basis.

Many of the sites we visit are incredibly important historical and natural wonders, and we encourage our travellers to treat these sites as such, sticking to marked paths, not climbing on ruins, picking wild plants or flowers, and avoiding disturbing the local wildlife as much as possible.
