Kathmandu:

Whilst Kathmandu lacks direct flights to most of Europe, Africa, North and South America and Australasia, the airport is well connected and it is usually possible to reach Kathmandu with only one change of flight, in most cases using the same airline.

How to Book Domestic Flights:

Commercial domestic flights are available for all the sectors of Trekking in(Nepal. Domestic flights take about 35 minutes to an hour and it cost USD 195 to 217. It depends of flight sector. The primary domestic airlines are air Yeti Airlines, Nepal Airlines, and Buddha Air.

Everest Gokyo Chola Pass Trek Baggage Handlers & Concerns:

Your luggage is vulnerable entering and leaving this airport. Do not keep anything of value in checked bags, and if you lock the bag, the zipper may be forced open and broken. There is little to no security for your bags. You should also be aware that most luggage is treated quite poorly in Nepalese airports. It is recommended that all fragile and valuable items be kept in your carry on luggage.

Be aware that when you collect your luggage, an "airport baggage cart collector" may appear and assist you with a baggage trolley. Unless you insist on handling your own baggage, your items will be loaded on the trolley and will be conveyed with you to the entrance of the terminal. You will then be expected to pay a tip to this person. Arriving just beforehand in Nepal, you will often only have larger denomination foreign currency in your pocket, making the issue of a tip a bit of a problem. It's fine to pay the tip in foreign currency but make sure you have some small bills or coins on hand (even a dollar or two will be significant to Nepalis). Everest Gokyo Chola Pass Trek time, You can storage Storage at your Hotel with proper name write to tag on above and you must keep tag safely. No Need to take all the luggage with you in the mountains. Which is very heavy load as well as you have to pay extra luggage so that better to keep in Kathmandu.

Should I Exchange Money at the Airport before going to Everest Gokyo Chola Pass Trek

Try not to exchange money at the airport as there are service charges and lower rates offered than what you can get in Thamel or elsewhere in the city. If you Exchange your Money with us, you can definitely get better rates than Money Exchange so before going to your trip ask , our responsible person of the Company. If you keep the exchange receipt, you could change back to your original currency at the rate on the receipt. You better exchange enough Money with your tour Operator to get better rates as well as avoid the notes (Bills) of duplicates in the market so you will be safe in this case before going to Everest Gokyo Chola Pass Trek

If I travel to Nepal again, I will definitely trek with Nabin again!

My friend and I travelled to Nepal over Christmas to trek the 17 day Everest Base Camp + Cho La Pass + Gokyo Lake route with Himalayan Magic. Everything was spot on, from the organisation pre-departure, collection at airport (despite flight delays!) and our stay in Kathmandu. Nabin accompanied us around the city to hire kit we needed, and we met our guide, Sitaram, at the hotel the day before we left for the mountains. The trek was brilliant, our guide and porter were excellent - with great knowledge of the mountains and route, accommodation and this enabled the flexibility to allow our trek to suit us. I can't recommend highly enough Nabin, his company and employees. Having seen the effects of altitude sickness on trekkers, it is so important to have a guide and company you can rely on to support you if you get sick, and I completely trusted the organisation and efficiency shown by Himalayan Magic. If I travel to Nepal again, I will definitely trek with Nabin again!

Unforgettable EBC-Gokyo Trek

As a celebration for my 40th birthday, we (me, my wife and four other friends) decided to venture through the EBC-Gokyo trek last November. It was a memorable journey and we couldn't thank Nabin, Krishna, Phuri, Kumar and everybody else at Himalayan Magic Treks enough. Nabin made all the arrangements seem easy from Kathmandu, there was not a single request we made it was not possible to adjust. Krishna was a very reliable and knowledgeable leader at the mountain and back at the lodges always dedicated to provide us with the best possible comfort. Phuri and Kumar were also fantastic, very helpful, responsible, they really took care of all of us. Besides all this, and as important as, they were very, very good friends. I miss you guys, and miss our daily trekking routine, I miss Nepal. Thanks you so much

The best trekking company in Nepal

After such a great experience through Himalayan Magic Treks last 2 years in Nepal. I and my friend decided to book our trip ; Gokyo Chola Pass via EBC and Kala Patthar through Nabin and his team again.

Our mission was completed, they made our dream came true by well organised. Nabin who is the managing director, he was prompt answering all of questions and suggested me all necessary information. We got great assist and warm welcome as we got from the wonderful brother. Great service mind is Himalayan Magic Treks!!!

Phuri, who was our guide in this trip and the other guy was my little sweetie porter. They are so friendly and helpful. I felt enjoy every moment when I trekked, It was not only the incredible view that I got via my eyes but it was because I had the lovely team along my trip. They were not only guide and porter, at the same they were our friends and family.

Finally, I could not judge Himalayan Magic Treks is the best agency and also I could not write all my incredible feeling through the words but this agency is the number # 1 in my mind when I think about trekking.

I totally recommend "Himalayan Magic Treks". Just join it by yourself, you will get fantastic experience and be feel than you read my review.

Be Enjoy!!!
