Best Time For The Trip

The trip sounds perfect for bonding with your family. Doesn’t it? Now, the question is, when are the best times to book this trip? Let’s talk about it in this section.

The ideal time for this trip would be spring (March-May) and autumn (October-November). During these months, the weather is generally clear. And the views of the mountains are spectacular. The temperature is also mild, making it comfortable for hiking. It is also easier to spot wildlife and enjoy outdoor activities during these times.

It's important to note that we don’t recommend this trip during the monsoon season (June- August) due to heavy rainfall and flooding. The weather also gets very hot and humid, which can make outdoor activities uncomfortable. You can, however, embark on this trip in winter (November-February). But keep in mind that the weather can be quite cool during this time, especially in the early morning and evening hours.

Is This Trip Right For Me?

How will you know if the trip is perfect for you? Well, Just imagine starting your trip with a hike through the picturesque landscapes. This is where you'll be surrounded by stunning mountain views and fresh air. The hike is suitable for families and nature lovers of all levels. It provides an excellent opportunity to explore the great outdoors.

After completing the hike, you'll drive to Chitwan National Park. Here you'll be immersed in the beauty of nature and wildlife. You can embark on a thrilling wildlife safari, explore the jungle on an elephant's back, or take a peaceful stroll through the forest as you listen to the chirping of birds. You'll have the chance to spot some of the park's famous inhabitants, such as tigers, rhinoceroses, and elephants.

This trip is an excellent option for those who love the outdoors and wildlife. It's a chance to create unforgettable memories and experience the beauty of Nepal in a unique way.

Travellers‘ Reviews

Read our genuine feedback from past travelers with Nepal Hiking Team sourced from TripAdvisor, Google, Facebook, and Trustpilot.

  • Exciting and most memorable experience

    Experience of a lifetime! Leading up to the trip, I felt some excitement and uncertainty because I was traveling from New Jersey to Nepal, so it was a trip to the other side of the world. Also knowing we were going to trek to the highest region in the world.

    Once we arrived in Kathmandu, we met up with our guide (Bhim). After a few minutes of talking with him, I felt a sense of calm and my excitement of joy grew from there. And I was right he and his team made sure we had the best experience possible.

    The full trek going and coming was incredible. Our guide, Bhim, made sure we had the best experience. Can’t say enough of how wonderful he and his team made this one for the books!

    I highly recommend booking with this company and Bhim! Namaste!

  • Solo Traveler

    I just completed trekking in Nepal together with another solo traveler. The service of Nepal Hiking Team was exemplary from the start till the end. Nothing beats word-of-mouth good reviews. 

    Mr. Ganga has been very responsive to queries from Day 1 and was physically present even on the last day to officially close the loop for the package tour.

    Our guide Bibek was very patient and sincere as he led us through the trek. He resolved issues with his heart and people skills and gave assurance whenever plans suddenly changed.

    He ensured things were changed for the better. Our porter, Rajendran, was also good and always arrived ahead of time to ensure our rooms were confirmed.

  • Amazing experience thanks to our 5-star guide/porter team

    We had the best time in Nepal. The beautiful views and warm hospitality of the Nepali people are truly unparalleled.

    Instrumental to our amazing experience were our guide, Netra, and porter, Vasu.

    We were super well taken care of. Netra was quick to assess our physical abilities and was able to effectively set the pace for our hikes. He had very good knowledge of the route and terrain. Importantly, this was our first time attempting a hike at a high altitude, so he took extra care to check on us regularly.

    On a personal note, proper gear, including a powerful down jacket for -20 degrees Celsius and a proper hiking backpack, is super essential.

    Overall, I would highly recommend the Nepal Hiking Team and Netra/Vasu for your Nepal adventure!

  • Fabulous Trip – Excited for Many More with NHT

    We were a group of 17 people from California who had been preparing for a year for this trip. Nepal Hiking Team was referred to us by one of my friends. After talking to & interviewing several companies, NHT seemed very responsive, cost-effective & experienced. After the trip, they proved us nothing less.

    Their guides are top-of-the-line, very kind, and helpful. They made sure we all were prepared for the next day, set our expectations rights, & guided us through managing altitude sickness.

    We all made it to Nepal and came back happy and healthy.

    We all thank NHT for making our dream come true, and looking forward to many more with them.

  • Highest praise for Nepal Hiking Team

    I highly recommend the Nepal Hiking Team for anyone planning to trek in Nepal. My spouse and I had a fantastic time on our trek and greatly credit our positive experience to the thought and care put into it by Nepal Hiking Team in coming up with a personalized plan that would enable us to succeed.

    Every detail was considered to match us based on our abilities and interests. We also could not have felt more cared for minute to minute by the team that supported us from the minute we arrived in Kathmandu until our departure.

    Our guide, Nim, was amazing -- so careful, thoughtful, warm, and supportive. And our porters, Sabin and Ganesh, were delightful. They were all unbelievably generous in terms of how much they worked to ensure we were comfortable and prepared. They thought of every detail along the way.
