Before going to Mardi Himal trekking

If you plan to do the Mardi Himal Trek the best time in the spring season is from March to May as well as during autumn in September to November. March to May days are warm with enough day lights cold in the morning and late afternoon till night time. You can expect snow sometimes on high hills and over the pass.

September to November is the best time with clear fine days for views and pleasant walks but short sun-light hours due to autumn and pre-winter seasons. Much colder morning till night times can expect snow sometimes during walks in higher altitude areas.

How to choose the best agency for trekking in Nepal?

Hence, we advise choosing the better company, not the cheaper one. Yes, there are many agencies that will say the cheapest prices but when it comes to the service and the luxuries you feel too sad. They will use cheap equipment and low-level manpower. Even hotels in Kathmandu and Pokhara and Tea houses along the way will be not so good. Sometimes cheap agencies may be involved in illegal activities. So, check the company profile, up-to-date required documents, company manpower, office location, reviews, Instagram, Facebook, and so on.

Indeed, this is your precious vacation, you will have to enjoy it with your precious time. And main concern is safety and personal care. So, these are the things you generally check before you book your trips.
