Staying at a tea house are a great way to connect with the local people and explore their culture. Tea Houses can be found on the popular treks etc. Although many tea houses and hotels in the hills and mountains are reasonably comfortable, some may still be more rustic than others. So, be sure to have a look before you agree to stay the night.

Camping/ Organized Trekking:

This is considered as the classic style of trekking in Nepal and can be enjoyed almost anywhere in the country. Camping /Organized Trekking is fully supported by a team of guide, cook, Sherpa and porters to accompany you and make your journey pleasurable. Trekkers probably do not want to carry their own food and camping gear; carrying those would make their journey exhausting rather than exciting. This trekking makes you free from the exhaustion and lets you freely enjoy the journey
All the necessary trekking supplies such as food, fuel and other goods are carried by the porters. The cook prepares all the meals during the camping. Trekkers/ guests only need to carry a small day pack. During the night tents for dining, sleeping and ablution are set up by the staffs while mattresses, sleeping bags, tables and seating are also managed by them. A Sardar (chief guide) is employed to prearrange and oversee the entire program. All land transportation, local permits, taxes, porter insurance, port dues and entrance fees to National Parks or sites are arranged for you
