About North and Eastern Nepal Trip

Nagarkot in the northern and eastern fringe of Nepal is famous for its Himalayan views and observing these spectacular peaks at sunrise are a magnificent sight to behold. Many visitors wish upon their arrival that they would have planned for more than one day in this area. Nagarkot is surrounded by thickly forested hills of pine trees which give you an idyllic scene.

It is a comfortable resort high on the northern fringe of the Kathmandu valley and offers outstanding views of Himalayas, breathtaking mountain scenery and the most impressive views of sunrise and sunset.

Nagarkot is famous for providing one of the broadest views of the Himalayas in the Kathmandu valley (8 Himalayan ranges of Nepal out of 13 from here).  The view gives you a cross section of these spectacular mountain ranges from Dhaulagiri in the west to Kanchenjunga in the east (8586 m). On a clear day, you can see Mt Everest (8848 m) you can also see Manaslu (8463 m), Ganesh Himal (7111m), Langtang (7246m), The Annapurna range, Manaslu range (8156 m), Ganesh Himal range(7406m), Jugal range, Rolwaling range, Dorje Lhakpa Himal (6966 m) also views of the Kathmandu valley and Shivapuri National Park. This will be the best trip I can recommend after the Annapurna adventure.

Tipping and Kitty

Although the culture of tipping may not be part or your own culture, it is nonetheless part of the culture in this area of world and it is often the way some people supplement their earnings. Tipping has also become an accepted part of tourism culture in the region. On our trips your trip leader can advise you on this matter, however as a guideline we would recommend a tip of 5-8%. If the service has been satisfactory, a tip is always appreciated with ……with a smile!

To protect you from the sometimes seemingly endless soliciting of tips, we suggest you discuss with your trip leader about setting up a tipping kitty whereby everybody contributes an equal amount (this amount can vary from trip to trip, but a good approximate is US $6 per person per day) your trip leader can then distribute tips along the way to local guides, and porters, etc. This keeps a record of all money spent. Please note that this kitty is not designed to provide a tip for your trip leader.

Tipping Your Leader

It is customary to tip your tour leader at the end of the trip, if you are happy with his/her service. A minimum tip of US $ 5 per day from each member of the group is the amount expected.
