What people love about Budget Tours in Himalaya Mountains
- Langtang Valley,Gosainkunda and Helambu Trek - 16 Days
It was a very nice tour and very well organized. Even before I arrived there was very nice contact with the organizer Rana, who responded quickly to inquiries. And then I had a very good guide with Rudra Dhoj Weiba. He always motivated me, also with humor, because at a hight over 4000 meters it was very exhausting for me. And he was not only a guide, but also a "doctor" when I had a cold. :) I can highly recommend Adventure Himalayan Travels and the Guide Rubra Dhoj Waiba and last but not least: the price-performance ratio is also very good.
- Essential Nepal
Amazing tour, the hiking was incredible and lots of included activities and meals - overall really good value for money, just very cold in the winter, bring lots of warm clothes!
- Lumba Sumba Pass - 18 Days
'' I had done the Lumba Sumba pass treks with Tashi sherpa as my Guide. The fact that Lumba Sumba is an incredible remote and isolated area, we spent 2 amazing weeks, amazing views of Kanchenjunga,Makalu and Lumba Sumba high pass. It was incredible organization and local knowledge of staff at Adventure Himalayan Travels and treks and their highly qualified and experienced guide and porters. I would recommend Adventure Himalayan Travels and Treks to all and of my friends, family and anyone else considering traveling “Nepal”
What our customers ask about Budget Tours to Himalaya Mountains
What type of accommodation can I expect on a budget Himalaya trek?
During city stays in Kathmandu, travelers stay in 3-star hotels like Hotel Shambala. On the trek itself, accommodation is in local teahouses and guesthouses with shared rooms that fit 4-5 people. The mountain lodges are simple but clean, with basic necessities like beds with blankets and shared bathrooms.
Which budget-friendly trek is best for beginners in the Himalayas?
The Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek stands out as an ideal starter trek, taking 5 days and costing $599. This route lets hikers walk through rhododendron forests and traditional villages while seeing the mountains. The trail has gradual elevation gains and proper rest stops, making it manageable for newcomers to high-altitude hiking.
What meals are typically included in budget Himalayan tours?
Budget tours generally cover breakfast at hotels in major cities like Kathmandu and Pokhara. Luxury Holidays Nepal adds a farewell dinner with local dance performances. During the trek itself, meals are not included - travelers should plan to spend extra for lunch and dinner at teahouses along the route.
Which reputable operators offer budget Himalaya tours?
Two established local companies stand out in the budget segment: Sherpa Expedition Teams and Luxury Holidays Nepal. Both maintain strong customer ratings (5.0 and 4.7 out of 5 respectively) by working directly with local communities and managing costs effectively while maintaining service quality.
What essential gear is typically included in budget tours?
Budget tours usually provide core trekking equipment. Companies like Sherpa Expedition Teams loan out down jackets and sleeping bags (returnable post-trek) and give each trekker a duffel bag to keep. The package includes trekking permits as well.
Are permits included in budget tour prices?
Standard permits come with most budget tours, including the Annapurna Conservation Area Permit and Trekkers' Information Management System card. These documents, worth about $50 combined, are handled by the tour operator as part of the package price.
