Amazing experience
I had an amazing experience with Nepal Social Trek! Starting with clear communication and well-organized trip planning followed by a warm welcome, we were impressed by the great hospitality we received from everyone. The trip was a real adventure, full of happy emotions and beautiful moments shared together. Our guides, Narayan and Govinda, were extremely skilled and knowledgeable. They were not only excellent guides but also beautiful people from a human point of view. After the trek, Nepal Social Trek also arranged a guided tour of the city of Bhaktapur and its temples for us. I absolutely recommend Nepal Social Trek!

Good experience in Nepal
I did the Chisapani Nagarkot trekk. My guide Kamal was very considerate, landscapes were nice and the hotels and food were good. We also visited Bhaktapur which is nice. I recommend visting Nepal and the Nepal social company.

Langtang Valley Trek
What an epic trip! Nepal Social Treks were brilliant. Seamless organisation from start to finish. They were always friendly and responsive with communication before I came out, were helpful when it came to hiccups with my baggage. And were flexible with my tour, switching from the Tamang to the Langtang trek with no complaints. My guide - Kamal, and porter - Santa, were both excellent. Kamal was super knowledgable, trustworthy, and great company. Santa’s a legend! The accommodation & food were great. The daily trekking: incredible and just the right level of challenging. I could not recommend this trek enough if you’re after something shorter.





Nepal Social Treks were an amazing company who helped me make memories for my life on a climbing attempt of Island Peak December 2023. Even though it was in the off-season and in December, they ensured I had everything necessary to achieve my goal and enjoy my winter trek. They were also very helpful after the trek and I enjoyed my conversations in their Kathmandu office. I'd recommend my friends to go climbing with them any day.

A trip organized by Simina Cernat our guide from România with a very good collaboration with Nepal Social Trecks. This was an experience of a lifetime rafting mountains nature people… We are grateful we had Lakpa to guide us throughout the trecking. Lakpa carefully addressed all our questions and help us understand Nepali culture he was the best guide friendly, kind, patient and felt very taken care of during our 9days trek on the Annapurna Circuit. At 5000m i had a difficult moment, could hardly walk but Lakpa immediately observed that and he helped me succesfully reach to Thorong La pass. 5416m. Also the two porters Nima and Manut were very nice and helpful. The trip itself was well thought through for our needs and expectations. Thank you Lakpa and high-level
FAQs about Tamang Heritage Trek
When is the best time to go on the Tamang Heritage Trek?
For most treks, including this one, Spring and Autumn are the best seasons to travel. The skies are likely to be much clearer and give you an unobstructed view of the majestic peaks around you. On this trek, the Ganesh Himal, Langtang Lirung, and Shishapangma enveloping you are an excellent sight that you do not want to miss. Similarly, there is less chance of rainfall, so you can trek for long hours without worrying about slippery trails.
What is the accommodation like in the Tamang Heritage Trek?
Through the majority of this trek, we will be staying in local teahouses. These are prepared to provide clean and hygienic beds as well as food for you. Moreover, it will add a local touch to your stay overstaying in the same old hotels. Once we reach Briddhim, you will be staying at a local homestay. Here, you will find yourself right at the heart of Tamang culture, and it is sure to elevate your experience in every way.
Do I need any specific training before going on the Tamang Heritage Trek?
The Tamang Heritage Trek is listed as a moderate to easy trek. However, you can expect to be walking about 5-7 hours per day. You don’t need any prior trekking experience to go on this trek. We do recommend involving yourself in some cardio-oriented activities from a couple of weeks ahead to prepare for your upcoming trek. You can try hiking, swimming, cycling, jogging, and so on.
Could I get altitude sickness on this trek?
The highest point on this trek is at 3165m. At this elevation, there is a very low possibility of altitude sickness. However, we have still designed the itinerary to make sure you can follow the trek comfortably. In case you do experience any discomfort, our staff will have first-aid kits readily equipped to take care of you.
Are there provisions for ATMs or credit cards during the trek?
There are plenty of ATM and credit card facilities available in Kathmandu. However, beyond that, when you venture into more remote villages and higher altitudes, these are going to be scarce to non-existent. We recommend you carry the necessary cash for any purchases in these areas. Additionally, we recommend that you exchange all your foreign currency into local money. As we trek into these villages, you are unlikely to find many places that accept foreign currency.
Is it safe to drink tap water during this trek?
As you know, your health and safety is our number one priority. As such, we will ensure clean drinking water throughout the trek. Bottled water is also available for purchase, and all the tea houses on this Tamang Heritage Trek provide safe drinking water.
We strongly suggest you refrain from drinking tap water as it is likely that your stomach will not have adjusted to the local water just yet. For your safety, only drink bottled water or properly filtered water. Additionally, you should consider carrying water purifying tablets for proper safety.
Will I be able to charge my phone and camera during the trek?
Yes. Most teahouses are well-prepped in delivering the basic amenities that you need. However, there is a chance that these charging stations will only be able to power small electronic devices such as mobile phones, cameras, and portable chargers. Please keep in mind that using these charging facilities come at an extra cost. The price range depends on the teahouse itself but usually ranges between Rs. 200 to 600.
Do I need to buy travel insurance for this trek?
Yes. We recommend that you purchase insurance in your country before coming on this trek. Nepal Social Treks only covers the insurance for our staff. Please make sure that your insurance covers you for high altitude trekking.
