Yes, you can obtain a tourist visa on arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu. Visa application kiosks are available in the arrival hall to fill out the necessary forms. The visa costs are USD 30 for 15 days, USD 50 for 30 days, and USD 125 for 90 days—all with multiple entries. It's recommended to carry cash in USD, as digital payments are often not accepted.
Bad weather conditions are the primary reason for flight delays and cancellations to and from Lukla, as the airport is located in a mountainous region with rapidly changing weather. Other factors include air traffic congestion at Kathmandu Airport, staffing shortages, and operational difficulties that may also affect flight schedules.
Not always. During the peak trekking seasons (March, April, May, October, and November), heavy air traffic at Kathmandu Airport often makes direct flights from Lukla unavailable. Instead, flights operate between Lukla and Manthali Airport in Ramechhap, which is about a 4–5 hour drive from Kathmandu.
Yes, internet is available in the Everest region primarily through the "Everest Link" network. You can purchase a 6GB package for NPR 600–800 (USD 5–7) valid at one location, or a 10GB package for NPR 2500 (USD 21) that works across multiple locations with Everest Link coverage. The service is valid for one device only. While some teahouses offer Wi-Fi for a fee, these connections are often unreliable. For better connectivity, it’s recommended to use Everest Link or buy a 3G/4G NTC or Ncell SIM card before your trek.
Yes, guesthouses along the Everest Base Camp trek follow international hygiene standards when preparing meals. They serve clean, well-cooked, and warm food to ensure safety and comfort for trekkers.
To secure your booking, a 30% deposit is required at the time of reservation. The remaining balance can be paid either upon your arrival in Kathmandu or in advance. Payment methods accepted in Nepal include US Dollars (cash) and major credit cards such as Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. Please note that a 4% transaction fee applies to all credit card payments.
