Embarking on a journey with Alpine Ramble was truly a remarkable experience. Despite the slightly higher cost compared to other travel agencies, the value we received was beyond exceptional. Dil, the founder, demonstrated unparalleled dedication by attentively addressing all our queries and assisting us in completing various preparations, including securing climbing permits. The complimentary airport shuttle service, along with the thoughtful gifts of team-logo hats and T-shirts, as well as the free rental of climbing poles and gear, showcased the team's commitment to ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience for us. Throughout our three-day Poonhill trek, our guide, Ayush, displayed a remarkable level of professionalism. He not only ensured that we enjoyed the best meals and accommodations but also consistently monitored our physical well-being. Thanks to Ayush's expertise, we were able to witness the breathtaking beauty of the Annapurna mountain range. Alpine Ramble's dedication to providing top-notch service and creating unforgettable experiences truly set them apart. We are grateful for the memories made and the expertise shared by your team. We will undoubtedly recommend Alpine Ramble to fellow travelers seeking an unparalleled trekking adventure in Nepal. Thank you once again for the exceptional service and for making our trekking journey a truly unforgettable one.

The best trekking company in Nepal! I spent a month in Nepal and did two separate treks with Alpine Ramble – the 11 day Annapurna Circuit and 8 day Everest Base Camp. I did a fair amount of research on trekking companies before booking and Alpine Ramble more than deserves the reputation it has in review sections like these! First up, you have Dil who is the mastermind behind it all. He was really easy to contact via WhatsApp before I arrived. He was able to plan a trip for me that allowed me to see both Annapurna and Everest regions, with enough time for acclimatisation, rest and unforeseen delays. Speaking of which, my flight to Luckla was delayed one day due to weather, which is very common. But this is when Dil went above and beyond. He organised a helicopter to take me the next day, at no additional charge. For context, the other people on the heli had to pay upwards of $300. Now I’m sure Dil wouldn’t be able to do this for every customer, but it just shows how committed he is to making sure you have the best time. It was only one of the best experiences of my life. Now onto the guides and porters. I had Basanta and Prakash for ACT, and Krishna Dhakar and Balkumar for EBC. They were all fantastic. Whether it was playing ludo/cards together or them cheerleading me through some of the more challenging sections of the trek, I will be forever grateful to these guys for making my experience so special. They were all such wonderful people. They set a nice slow hiking pace and checked my oxygen levels every night to reduce the risk of altitude sickness, but also recognised when I could go a bit further. We stayed in great tea houses throughout, and I’d always seem to get the best room on offer. Maybe that’s Dil working his magic! Last thing. You read and hear a lot about poor working conditions and exploitation in Nepal. It was really important to me that this wasn’t the case for my trip and I can confirm that Alpine Ramble treats all its staff fairly. From limits on how heavy the porters’ bags can be, to the 10% that goes to charity, Alpine Ramble seems very ethical. I was delighted to hear that one of my guide’s (very smart) sons was studying Computer Science in the US. It gave me confidence that my money was being fairly distributed. Thank you so much to everyone at Alpine Ramble, I’ll be back one day!

Island peak Trek with Prem & climb with Ombraz were unforgettable and my husband and I felt like we were in competent hands the entire time. Prem is an honest, energetic, and passionate man who we were very lucky to have guide us. Prem took care of us like family, and made sure to show us the best of the trek by getting us started early while the trails were quiet & the skies were clear, and even taking us on some “bonus”/acclimatization hikes to see some more amazing spots not on our scheduled route. He made sure we had warm tea with “biscuits” every day, and helped advise us on the best way to purchase/consume water and food so we would stay healthy. Prem has many years of experience and that showed not only with his expertise & knowledge, but also in his relationships with every tea house owner & many guides we passed along the way! Ombraz (hoping I spelled that right), though we only had lead us for 24 hours during the climbing portion, was highly knowledgeable about the mountain and technical skills necessary. His calm demeanor and initiative to assist were key in helping get me up the mountain while I struggled slightly with the altitude.

I recently embarked on the Annapurna Base Camp Trek with Alpine Ramble Treks, and I must say, it was an experience of a lifetime. From the moment I reached out to inquire about the trek to the final farewell at the end of the journey, every aspect of my adventure was meticulously handled by the Dil Gurung and Laxman Gurung with other amazing team members. One of the most commendable aspects of my experience was the professionalism and expertise of the guides and staff. They were not only knowledgeable about the trekking routes and local culture but also deeply passionate about sharing their love for the Himalayas with every trekker. Their enthusiasm was infectious and added an extra layer of enjoyment to the journey. Additionally, the logistics and organization were top-notch. From transportation to accommodation and meals along the trail, everything was well-planned and executed flawlessly. It was never an easy task to handle 15 of us with age ranging from 12 to 55 years old. I never once had to worry about the practicalities, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the breathtaking beauty of the Annapurna region. The fruits and snacks provided for the entire trekking journey is an extraordinary service which made us different from other trekkers. Moreover, the personalized attention and care provided by the team were truly heartwarming. Whether it was ensuring our safety on challenging trails or accommodating special dietary needs, they went above and beyond to ensure that each trekker felt valued and supported throughout the journey. This is especially important when we were trekking in the challenging weather condition in February with snow falls and rain falls. They also ensure our health condition is fit for upcoming treks by using oximeter. Lastly, I cannot emphasize enough the sheer magnificence of the Annapurna Base Camp trek itself. The stunning vistas of snow-capped peaks, lush forests, and picturesque villages left me awe-struck at every turn. It's an experience that will stay etched in my memory forever, thanks in no small part to the exceptional service provided by Alpine Ramble Treks. In conclusion, if you're considering trekking in the Annapurna region, I wholeheartedly recommend choosing Alpine Ramble Treks (especially Dil Gurung and Laxman Gurung). Their dedication to providing a memorable and enriching experience is truly unmatched, and I am grateful for the opportunity to have journeyed with them. Here's to many more adventures with this outstanding team!

They also organized a celebratory dinner at Namche Bazaar, which was a fantastic way to bond with fellow trekkers and the Alpine Ramble Treks team.

We have just finished the most amazing 3 day Poonhill trek. This was our first trek in Nepal so we didn’t really know what to expect. Our guide Mr Dilman was excellent, very knowledgeable and took great care of us. We had a great time and I would recommend Alpine Ramble Treks and Mr Dilman to anyone considering doing some trekking in Nepal.

My friend and I went on this trip without much planning, but Alpine made it very easy for us. Dil has been very polite, helpful and responsive. He provided many detailed advice to clear our doubts. He also arranged everything for us, from the trekking schedule, trekking gears, accommodations during the trek and all the private transportations between airports and hotels in Kathmandu and Pokhara. The trekking trip was also an amazing experience. We were grouped with two similar aged trekkers and we had a lot of fun trekking together. Our guide Ayush and his team were also extremely helpful. We felt like we didn't do anything but walking and enjoying the tremendous view. On top of guiding and taking care of our baggage, they also arranged and personally served all the meals during the trip, helped us with recharging, wifi, pictures, etc. We couldn't have finished the trip without them. Last but not least, the ABC trekking trail itself is definitely worth visiting. Maybe we were lucky with the weather but the view we saw all the way from Himalaya to MBC and ABC were one of the most beautiful sceneries I have seen. We were exposed to spectacular snow mountains, waterfalls, rivers, glaciers, rocks and stars at night. The world became so quite that we could only hear the birds singing and the river streaming. It was a great escape from the hustle and bustle from the city.

I'm glad I chose the right company; it has become a beautiful time in my life that I will never forget. It's indescribable in words because I trekked the ABC with four of my friends together. Safety was my top priority, and they indeed delivered. They took excellent care of each one of us, ensuring we ate well and maintained good health. When my friends felt unwell, they reacted quickly and provided a solution, which reassured me because I knew we would be safe. They were more like friends than “guides” and “porters”. During the mountain climb, we got to know each other and shared stories and laughter, turning each day in the mountains into a remarkably ordinary and joyful experience. My friends and I had no issues with accommodation and food. Don't imagine staying in a hotel, where everything necessary for a good night's sleep was provided, and the food options were plentiful. I could feel their passion for preparing food. In the end, the biggest motivation between my friends and me was, 'Have you decided what to have for lunch?' Ps. Please try the Lemon honey ice; it was very refreshing. Pineapple juice, Ginger tea, and mint tea are all my favourite drinks. I'm also very grateful to Dil for handling everything well. During the busy season the responses might be slow, but rest assured and give them more patience that Dil will get back to your messages as soon as possible. He's a very kind, friendly, and responsible person. And trust me he will certainly handle your journey thoroughly for you. Lastly, I want to say that life is short, and safety is essential when we seek adventure. I am very thankful for Alpine Ramble's assistance and for creating a pleasant and unforgettable holiday for me and my friends. Watching the happiness of each of my friends, I am deeply moved. I know that life only offers one chance, and travelling and adventuring together is not easy. It might be just once in a lifetime, but the memories will last a lifetime. Thank you very much, Boss "Dil Gurung," for the warm welcome it made us fall in love with Nepal quickly, thanks for all the arrangements and all the documents you prepared and for leading the company so well. Thank you very much to our team guide "Ayush Gurung" (our big brother always told us to slow down or rest and drink more water) for taking care of each of us, helping us carry our bags when we were tired, and ensuring our well-being and safety and make us so happy. Thank you very much to our three heroes of porters: "Bhim," "Naraja," and "Anlish." Thank you for helping my friends when they needed it. I greatly respect and appreciate all of you. You are true heroes in my heart. Thank you and with much appreciation. तपाईंलाई धेरै धन्यवाद With all my love, Arron Liu 12/10/2023 “Happiness is only real, when shared.”-Christopher McCandless

I had a trek of a lifetime with the best guide in the world, Prem. I miss this adventure every single day! Prem helped me navigate the trek, set the pace, helped me believe in my abilities and I hope he would agree that we formed a good (and quick!) team for the 12 days. I got lots of good advice on the food, customs, tricks that helped me stay healthy along the trail. I miss Prem's positive spirit and will be forever grateful for meeting him in life. Prem invested time and attention to ensure my trip was special and we did lots of additional little treks to spot animals, birds, see hidden monasteries etc. Dil and the team were also amazing in ensuring our trip was smooth and I loved the goodbye dinner. I will be back next year for a 6k! Missing you Guys!

Wow, what a fantastic experience! Even before arriving to Nepal, Dil answered all my questions on whatsapp to make sure we were prepared and at ease for our upcoming trip. We also had to make our flight back for work so Alpine Ramble were very accommodating and allowed us to skip one acclimatisation day so that we would definitely make it back on time. We had a wonderful guide called Saugat. He was very knowledgeable as well as funny and kept us entertained and safe at all times. The trek itself was beautiful. The teahouses were all great with good food and decent beds. I actually got very sick the night after we reached base camp and had to call a helicopter to go to hospital. Alpine Ramble were incredible and helped me with contacting the insurance to make sure they would come quickly. Saugat and our porter also looked after me and stayed with me all night, checking oxygen levels etc. We had a great celebratory dinner back in Kathmandu too with lots of fun dancing and great food. Would 100% recommend this company - we had the most incredible time!

A very memorable experience doing the EBC trek with Alpine Ramble. I felt relaxed knowing that accommodation along the trek and travel in and out from Lukla was taken care of. Our guide Harri, what a guy! He always made us laugh, and turns out is a perfect photographer who knows all the best spots for photos with expert knowledge on all of the mountains to go with it! He did a fantastic job at explaining all parts of the trek the night before so we knew what was coming next and kept us going even in times where it was most challenging. Itinerary is designed to support the acclimatisation process, and guides are essential in understanding and judging when it is safe for you to move forward or not. Oxygen and heart rate monitor was used regularly to check how our bodies were managing with the adjustments so if this is something that worries you please make sure to get a guide or at least a monitor! Shout out to all porters too who also work incredibly hard to carry the bits that you may struggle to over such long distances and up and down super difficult terrain. Man was “the man!”

Coming from the Philippines which is just few meters above sea level, I thought this trip would be very challenging for me and my sister. However, with our great tour guide Dilman and, our strong and reliable porter Suk, we were able to complete the trip and have a great adventure. Our tour guide, Dilman, us a fun guy full of amazing stories and a man who you can call a friend. He was able to help us ride the helicopter on a cheaper price with the use of his charm and connection🤣. Our porter, Suk, is a very reliable, strong man! He always make sure things are done, and he just gives you a vibe of a friend who you can always count on. I honestly couldn't imagine myself finishing this trip without these guys in my team. Indeed, this trip is one of the most memorable one not just because of the beautiful sceneries but because of the stories we shared.

It was also a fuss-free experience as all the accommodations were taken care of. Our porters Sanjay and (young) Tek were also amazing and of great help.

Great experience doing the EBC trek with Alpine Ramble. Our guide Krishnaa was simply the best! He did everything to make our trek as much enjoyable and comfortable as possible, helping us with acclimatization steps, explaining us many things about the mountain, answering all our questions, and supporting us in the most difficult moments of the hike. He also made sure to flexibly adapt the trekking schedule to all our needs. Our porter Bhakta was also very friendly and helpful and he did an amazing job. Their presence, support and experience made it possible to realize our EBC dream!

Just recently returned to Kathmandu (today!) after completing the 12-day EBC Trek with my very awesome guide RAM!!!! At the very beginning, the trip was organized by Mr. Dil without any issues. Then from Day #1 to Day #12, my guide, RAM, took the reigns and guided my day to day activity very calmly and with full patience as we hiked along a very challenging landscape with many uphills and downhills. As a solo traveler, I never felt alone in a very challenging environment as RAM made sure I was healthy (gladly didn’t have any issues with altitude) and comfortable with our pace. He even helped, at times, carrying my sleeping bag, most especially climbing one of the most challenging uphill of the trek. Without hesitation, I will recommend Alpine Ramble Trek to anyone wanting to have the experience of a lifetime with Everest Base Camp. The group has a very deep connection in the area and it was quite lovely meeting other travelers through them, that made the experience even more memorable for me. This is an adventure of a lifetime and i’m glad RAM was my buddy for this trip!

I did Annapurna base camp trek with Alpine Ramble in may and it was the best trip I have ever had in my life. The guide Krishna and Helper Saila were amazing. They helped me everything that need on my trip. Dil, the founder of company was so friendly and helpful from the day first of my trip panning and to the end. They were real human being. I am so blessed to have them for my tour organizer. I am already planning to come back to Nepal for Everest base camp trek with my family and will certainly use the alpine ramble treks for our second and any our trips in the future to Nepal. I would highly recommend Alpine Ramble treks to anyone for trekking and tours in Nepal. They are absolutely the best local company with friendly guides and great supportive team. Thanks to this amazing team for hosting my amazing trip. Forever grateful to this team.

I’d like to start off by saying that the EBC trek has been the most amazing trekking experience we’ve ever had. It’s been beyond 100% worth the 30 hours of travel time to get to Nepal from Nicaragua. Alpine Ramble has been an amazing company to work with. Mr. Dil, the founder, went above and beyond to make sure we had a successful trek to EBC and back. He was there all along the way to make sure everything was going well. He coordinated helicopter flights during Lukla airport shutdown, provided amazing hospitality, and gave us great advice to be able to complete the trek safely. We also could have not asked for a better guide and porter. Saugat Gurung, our fantastic guide, also went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience. Saugat treated us like mountain brothers. We felt super comfortable with him being our guide. His knowledge of the trails and terrain was of a true profesional mountaineer. We were also lucky to have had Nima as our porter. He was always with great attitude and a smile, despite carrying all that weight. We will definitely book our trekking trip with Alpine Ramble the next time we come back to Nepal. I can’t speak highly enough of the way we were treated by the AR team. Thank you for the most amazing experience.

My guide Prasan and porter Dill were amazing. They were super friendly, helpful, hospitable, from the first encourager picking me up at the airport, to the trek, to the farewell dinner. They took good care of me. Prasan was professional and knowledgeable. He explained to me the views, the customs and the cultures to me. He could flexibly discuss the itinerary with me. Without them, the trek wouldn’t be successful or at least enjoyable.

My friend and I did the 14-day EBC - Cho La Pass - Gokyo trek this past May, 2024. Our masterful guide was Tilak and our kind, able, and supportive porter was Lahk. To say the trek was successful is an understatement. Everything from the flights to and from Lukla, to the lodging and food was seamless and simple. A special note regarding our guide, Tilak. He has been leading treks to EBC for 20 years, and his deep experience shows. We often saw other guides from different trekking companies who appeared disconnected from their clients. Not Tilak. We felt very much the focus of his attention. His knowledge of the trail, his relationships with the tea house employees, and his wisdom regarding food, safety, and planning was invaluably connected to our successful trek. I highly recommend Alpine Ramble and guide Tilak if you have up for this grand adventure!

I don't even know how to write this review I'm just so grateful for the whole Alpine Ramble team who led our family trip to Annapurna Basecamp 🥹. Our guide, Ahyush, and our team of porters Dil, Elias, and Roshan were so incredible ❤️. Not only did they take great care of us, they were so kind and went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed and were comfortable. I don't think we were the easiest group for them either as total newcomers to trekking, especially with the moderate level hike up to ABC. I found them through a glowing review from the YouTuber Counting Countries and they lived up to his glowing review. Dil, the founder was also extremely responsive to all of our questions and helped us customize our trip. He also met with us in person when we arrived in Kathmandu to go through the details with us. Really appreciate his attentiveness to make sure our trip went without a hitch. Whatever level trekker you are don't hesitate to reach out to Alpine Ramble — they'll find a solution that's right for you. Looking forward to more trips with them in the future!

It was the first time in Nepal, and my friend and I decided for a easy but fantastic trekking, a short one to Poon Hill. Alpine Ramble was really the good choice. They were always available, also before the trek in case of need. The experience was fantastic especially for our guide, Addit, a guy of our age, who always made us feel at home. The peculiarity of Alpine Ramble is that the guide is chosen according to the characteristics of the guests. In fact Addit has the same age of us, and he has same fiscal condition of us. It was a wonderful experience, I hope it can be repeated!

If you're looking for the best Himalaya or Everest trekking company, Alpine Ramble is the one I highly recommend! From preparations before our flight to Nepal, when we arrived at Kathmandu to the trekking days and even until our flight back home, Alpine Ramble was incredibly helpful and attentive. They were always prepared for any circumstances that arose during our trek. Our guide, Krishna, was absolutely fantastic. He was friendly, funny, and incredibly helpful. Krishna always had a plan and a solution for any issues that arose. Our porters, Ram and Min, were also incredibly helpful, friendly, funny, and strong. We'll miss you guys! Special thanks to Dil, the founder of Alpine Ramble, who planned and managed our trip from start to finish. Dil was always available whenever we needed him and for any questions we had. I highly recommend Alpine Ramble for anyone planning a trek to the Himalayas or Everest.

15 Day Gokyo Lakes - Everest Base Camp Review April 2024 My buddy and I (both 60 year olds) took a 15 day Gokyo Lakes - Everest Base Camp Loop trek with Alpine Ramble. Amar was our guide and Suk was our porter. The trip was incredibly beautiful. It’s near impossible to capture the grandness and beauty pictures. It was just spectacular. The elements (weather, trail, etc) were intense. Amar was an excellent guide. He knew the trek extremely well and was totally there to culture safety, an adventure and our comfort to the best of his ability. He was super personable and resourceful. He handled our concerns and anxieties very well. I was glad that we had Amar as our trusted guide. Suk was our porter. Again he was an enthusiastic member of our team who skillfully, powerfully assisting Amar in guiding and watching out for our group of 4. He was extremely personable and even handed in sharing his skills, observations and himself. Dil, Owner of Alpine Ramble Treks, was generous, professional, and ever present as we made our way to, thru and after the trek. He’s likeable, knowledgeable and sincere about the adventure he promised and delivered on. I definitely would recommend an Alpine Ramble Treks because of the rich, skilled, positive experience I had with Amar, Suk and Dil. This trek was an experience of a lifetime!

We had a very good experience with Alpine Rambler at the end of March. Especially our guides Iman and Saila were humble, kind, and took very good care of us always worrying if all was ok. Food was good on the way and sleeing arrangements as well. The trek was 5 days to ABC and whereas we were very lucky especially with the good weather, the trek is demanding but highly higly worth it. Overall the infrastructure to ABC and the route definitely worth it! Highly recommended the trek and Alpine Rambler and special thanks to Saila and Iman again! Thank you

I don’t even know where to start. I feel so overwhelmed and my heart is so full right now. Alpine Ramble is an amazing company and I cannot recommend them enough. I did the 10 day Gokyo Ri Trek. I am so grateful to my “mountain Dad”, guide Ram, who made me feel extremely safe and welcome as a female solo traveller. He worked tirelessly to ensure that I was comfortable and having a good experience on the trek. Dil, the owner of the company, was fabulous at communicating and the company driver, Kumar, was also super lovely. I 100% will be back in Nepal and will go with Alpine Ramble again. Thank you ever so much - you’re all absolutely wonderful!

We just finished the 12 day EBC trek with Alpine Ramble and have nothing but great things to say about the company and great staff. From when we first started planning our trek, Dil was extremely easy to work with and very responsive to all our questions. When we flew into Kathmandu everything was so organized and smooth from the airport pick up to hotel stay and into our next flight. Dil provided us with the best and warmest gear for our trek. Our guide Prim exceeded all our expectations, from day one we couldn’t believe how lucky we were to have him as our guide. He was more than just our guide, he took care of us, made sure we had the best accommodations, ate the best meals. He really treated us like family always checking in on our health. We gave Prim many names during this this trip, Uncle Prim, Doctor Prim, Mountain Prim. This trek was very challenging and we honestly owe all our success and enjoyment to him. Last but not least our porter, Cheshing was not only exceptionally strong but also a greatly added enjoyment to our trip. He was always had such a positive attitude and was so helpful! We highly recommend Alpine Ramble treks and especially Prim for your trekking in Nepal!

My husband Daniel & I did the 8 days Langtang Valley Trekking Tour with Alpine Ramble as our honeymoon. We had the BEST time and we enjoyed every minute of the trip. From the moment when we booked the trip, Alpine Ramble offered amazing service, were very fast in responding to every question and sent really good information, like a packing list and detailed descriptions of the tour. They really think of everything and are very well organized. When we arrived in Kathmandu we were picked up by a very kind driver who welcomed us with flower necklaces and drove us to our very comfortable hotel. On the way to the hotel he showed us a lot of sights already and explained interesting things about the Nepalese culture. On our arrival day we were welcomed personally by the company owner Dil in our hotel who introduced us to our amazing mountain guide Ram and took all the time to explain everything about the upcoming tour. The whole team of Alpine Ramble is really welcoming, very kind and do everything to make sure that we have the best time of our life. You really notice that they care a lot and want to ensure that their customers have everything that’s needed to feel comfortable and well taken care of. The Langtang Valley Trek was perfect for us and every day on the trail was a gift. We are so grateful for our amazing dream team (my husband, me, our amazing mountain king guide Ram and our strong and kind porter Hom) ! Ram and Hom are the best and we feel so lucky that they were there to show us everything and guided us on the tour. When we struggled with the height or we’re tired they helped us and every day provided great snacks and beautiful teahouse accommodations. We learned a lot about the Nepalese culture from Ram and Hom and we laughed together and felt supported every moment during the tour! They really do their job with passion and joy ! Great accommodation, delicious food, very personal and kind support! We are very glad that we picked Alpine Ramble as our touring company and will come back next year to do the Annapurna Circuit tour with the same dream team! There are many touring companies who offer Nepal trekking tours and we heard many good things about Alpine Ramble before via YouTube, so we booked with them. It was the best decision!! Thank you Dil, Ram and Hom for making our honeymoon trip so special and unforgettable! We fly home with a very grateful heart and many beautiful memories. And thank you to all the Nepalese people for being so welcoming. We will be back soon again and will book again with Alpine Ramble! Namaste and many greetings, Lotti & Daniel from Germany

Had an amazing experience with Alpine Ramble. Dil (the owner) was very helpful in arranging all of the details ahead of time and communicating with me throughout some complications with transport to/from Lukla. My guide, Bhupal, was incredible as well — super friendly, safety-conscious and knowledgeable about the region. Also fun! We joked around every day on the trail and built a great rapport by the end. Highly recommend these guys for any Himalayan expedition!

We had an unforgettable experience on the 10-day Annapurna Circuit trek with Alpine Ramble! Our guide, Krishna, and porter, Bigness, were absolutely incredible—so kind, helpful, and always making sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. Krishna’s knowledge of the region was fantastic, and he kept us motivated with his positive attitude. Bigness was an absolute legend, handling everything with ease and a constant smile, even at the highest altitudes. The team made sure we were safe, well taken care of, and fully immersed in the beauty of the Himalayas. From start to finish, Alpine Ramble exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t recommend them more highly. If you’re looking for an amazing trekking experience in Nepal, this is the company to go with!

Frequently Asked Questions

What level of insurance should I obtain?

Travel Insurance is mandatory for all customers looking to travel in Nepal with the Alpine Ramble Treks. However, The Travel Insurance that you are looking at must cover both the medical and emergency evacuation costs. Somehow, we would like to recommend to our valuable clients that your insurance is worth a minimum of USD 100,000. The beauty of the mighty Himalayas comes with great risks. It is always best to prepare for any unforeseen risks that may arise while traveling in the Himalayas. There are many insurance companies that offer travel insurance services over the Internet- you can find them easily to buy at any time. There are a wide variety of insurance companies based in the region. Especially when it comes to trekking in the Himalayas region of Nepal, there is always a narrow chance of minor health issues, injuries, and most importantly – altitude sickness, etc. It is essential that you choose an insurance policy that covers the cost of the helicopter rescue from the mountains in case of major accidents and acute mountain sickness (AMS). During such extreme cases of emergency evacuation, a helicopter service is the only way out of the mountains. This includes a rescue team for both – ground evacuation and rescue. This is why we require your travel insurance to cover the cost of helicopter services and evacuation from the Himalayas (up to 6000m). It is always better to be safe than sorry.

Altitude Sickness

Altitude sickness as known as acute mountain sickness (A.M.S.) in general may occur when people ascend too quickly normally at altitudes of over 2500 meters above sea level.

When you are in a high elevation place most people will feel some effect of altitude, sleeplessness, shortness of breath, and possibly light-headed, which is fairly very common. Acute mountain sickness is very different and normally involves a severe headache, sickness and you can feel that loss of awareness. In almost every possible case there are enough warning signs to take appropriate action. Our company only prefers well trained and experienced guides, in field guide will advise you about any health issues and also altitude sickness while you are on trekking if you have any of this then you should tell to your guide our combine, then they will be suggested you have to use medication for Altitude sickness. Before leaving for the trip also suggest to any of our valuable clients to consult with your Medical Doctor and get advice.

(Summer)June, July, and August : The summer season provides the preferable season to trek in the rain shadow areas like the upper Mustang, around Annapurna, etc. these regions are out of reach of the rain clouds because of the huge mountains, and unaffected by the monsoon.
