Nepal Social Treks Review

I’ve just completed the 15 day Everest Base Camp trek with Nepal Social Treks and can’t praise the company, guide & porter highly enough. My guide in particular, Lhakpa was an absolute star who could not do enough to make the time away as comfortable as possible. Considerate, knowledgeable, funny, kind & inspiring. I genuinely don’t think I could have completed the trek without their support! A lifetime ambition completed thanks :)

Great guide

The Everest Base Camp trek was amazing. Everything was organised for us. The accommodation and food was better than we expected. Our guide Amrit was professional, knowledgeable, and kind. He adjusted our trip to follow our pace. When we got sick, he was extremely helpful and caring, and made sure we got the care we needed. We can't wait to return to trek again.

Awesome Annapurna Trek

We were extremely happy with our choice of Nepal Social Trekking for the 12 Day Annapurna Circuit Trek. We were expecting a group, but in the end, it was just my wife and I and Guide Kamal with Porter Nabin. Kamal always seemed to get us the best rooms at the Tea Houses and his knowledge of the trek was outstanding. He assisted and monitored our water intake, food and oxygen stats every day over 3000m, so on the morning we set off for Thorung La pass, we did it with ease. No headaches or any other issues. Our Porter was always very obliging and together they made a great team. Flights back to Kathmandu and other admin didn’t seem any issue. We highly recommend the company

Reaching Everest Base Camp was a dream of mine and this trek was really amazing!! Narayan, our guide, was truly skilled and great company; he supported us even in the most difficult moments. A heartfelt thank you to the porters, who, tireless and always smiling, made our trek possible! Well done, everyone!

Do I need to have previous climbing experience for Mera Peak?

Mera Peak expedition is slightly strenuous that involves trekking as well as climbing with all the expedition equipment. Previous climbing experience unquestionably helps, but it is not that compulsory for Mera Peak Climbing.

Moreover, at Mera Peak Base Camp, our climbing Sherpa will arrange a special session on climbing skills and the use of climbing equipment. Some cardio and general walks will certainly help prior to your start of the expedition. However, anyone with pre-medical history needs to seek medical acquiescence before considering the expedition.

What permits are necessary for Mera Peak Climbing?

To complete this Mera Peak Climbing adventure, you would need a special Mera Peak Climbing permit along with a TIMS (Trekking Information Management System) card. We will obtain these entire permits and travel documents for your convenience.

Should I have travel insurance for an emergency to be ready for Mera Peak Climbing?

We suggest that you have a comprehensive travel insurance policy that covers all aspects of your adventure. However, we assure you that there will be hardly any evacuations or any health catastrophes throughout the expedition. Your leader is medically trained and has ample knowledge to deal with any type of life-threatening situation. Nevertheless, it is always helpful to have insurance as your backup.

What is Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS)? How can it be treated?

Acute mountain sickness is a severe health effect of high altitude caused by your body’s reaction to a shortage of oxygen. The amount of oxygen available at sea level is double that contained at 5000m above the sea level. Your body needs enough time to adjust your breathing to a higher altitude. You normally experience the effect of the high altitude above 2800 meters.

To prevent AMS, you should acclimatize your body when trekking to higher altitudes. Moreover, you should drink enough fluids and take rest immediately when you feel tired and dizzy.

What are the symptoms of AMS?

The major symptoms of AMS include headache, nausea, loss of appetite, cough, and fatigue. If you feel any of the symptoms, take rest, and halt your adventure for that day. If your health is getting worse even while resting, return to a lower altitude. You should take proper rest until you feel okay. You can always abandon your expedition if you are not feeling well to complete it. Let your guides know if you are having issues during the expedition and act on their advice.

Who will be my guide for Mera Peak?

At Nepal Social Treks, we provide you some of the experienced local guides. Our expert guides have been to the relevant areas many times. All the guides are flexible, experienced, and authorized by the Government of Nepal.

Our guides are professionals on mountaineering with extensive knowledge on the Himalayas, more than 5 years of experience with at least 3 times summit of Mount Everest and are trained and assessed by the International Federation of Mountain Guides Association (IFMGA) or Nepal Mountaineering Association (NMA) with many years of Mountaineering experience in the world’s highest mountains.

What happens if there is an emergency?

If you get caught up in a serious emergency, our climbing guide will help you with safety care, medical treatment, and communication services. Communication is made possible through satellite phones, so a guide will help you if something critical happens. If you are not well to continue your summit, a helicopter will come to your rescue.

How do I get a Nepal Visa to carry out this expedition?

The Immigration Office at Tribhuvan International Airport, Kathmandu, facilitates Tourist Visa on Arrival. You need to pay USD 30 visa fee for two weeks, USD 50 for a month, and USD 125 for three months. Besides, the Tourist Visa Extension requires a minimum of 15 days (USD 45) and USD 3 for each extra day.

What is the overnight accommodation like on Mera Peak ?

While in Kathmandu, your accommodation will be in 3-star hotels packed with all the major facilities. On the other hand, when you are trekking, the accommodation will depend on the trek style. If you are camping, you will be sleeping in tents.

Besides, when you are on the go, there are plenty of tea houses, particularly in the smaller villages, to provide you comfortable accommodation. Although simple, the tea houses--usually run by local families--do offer shelter and warmth.

What about drinking water during the expedition?

Your health and well-being are our first priority, so only safe water is provided for drinking throughout the expedition. You can purchase bottled water from the hotels and lodges where we stay. Nevertheless, it is no harm in carrying the water purifier with you for proper purification. Other than that, you can pack some water-purifying tablets from Kathmandu for easy purification on the way.
