Cancellation of trips by the Clients

The cancellation fee, detailed below, is a percentage of the total trip cost on our package webpage.
- If the client cancels the trek 30 days or more in advance, the full advance payment will be refunded, minus any hotel or flight booking cancellation fees.

- If the cancellation is made less than 15 days before the start date, the advance payment is non-refundable.
Note: The banking system in Nepal can be complex, which may affect the refund process. If your trek was booked a year in advance, the refund must be processed within that same year. Therefore, please consider this when planning any cancellations. If we are unable to process the refund, you have the option to reschedule your trek or this amount can be used by your friends or family members who may visit Nepal in the future.
If you choose to leave a trip voluntarily or cut the trip short after it has started, for any reason, you will not be entitled to any refund from the company. This policy applies to clients who opt to exit the journey voluntarily after it has commenced, regardless of the reason. Clients will not receive a refund for any unused portion of the itinerary. Similarly, customers are not entitled to any refund for unused services they have paid for, such as transportation, sightseeing, meals, or accommodation.
Cancellation of a tour by the company
Nepal Nirvana Trails reserves the right to cancel any trip, including a guaranteed trip before departure in the event of natural disasters, flight cancellation, strikes, government intervention, pandemics, and other unforeseen circumstances or emergencies. In such cases, we at Nepal Nirvana Trails will refund you the total amount you paid for us for the trek/tour.
Travel Insurance
Travel insurance covering accidents, injuries, illnesses, death, medical expenses, emergency repatriation (including helicopter rescue and air ambulance where applicable), and personal liability is highly recommended for all Nepal Nirvana Trails customers. We are happy to assist you with the recommendations (click here).
Select a policy that includes coverage for helicopter rescue costs in the event of a catastrophic accident or the onset of acute mountain sickness (AMS) in the mountains, as well as hospital bills. In dire situations, helicopter services are the only means of evacuation from the highlands.
Injuries During the trek
Throughout the journey, clients may encounter various adverse situations. However, the company will not be liable for any injuries, health issues, or emotional distress that may arise. Likewise, our package price does not include any form of personal insurance. Therefore, we ensure that guests are informed of the necessity to obtain suitable insurance coverage, which should include medical emergencies and helicopter evacuation if needed.
Delays/Cancellation of Trek and Flight and changes in the route
Mountain trekking is unpredictable due to the weather so bad weather can cause delays or cancellations in domestic flights, and crossing high passes, especially in the Everest, Dolpo, and Jumla regions.
In such cases, where your domestic flights are delayed during departure for your journey or while returning from the trek, the client is responsible for bearing all additional expenses including food (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) and accommodation (a guest house) costs caused in such circumstances.
You will also be responsible for any extra expenses if you opt for alternative travel arrangements, like taking a helicopter flight, to avoid aircraft delays and expenses incurred due to flight delays.
Visa and Passport
A Nepal Visa is available on arrival for most countries. Please ensure your passport is valid for 6 months validity when traveling to Nepal. For the information about the Nepal Visa (click here).
Last Minute Booking
We at Nepal Nirvana Trails are more than happy to arrange the last-minute booking for the trek and tours in Nepal depending on availability. In the case of last-minute booking, you have to pay the total cost of the trip before the scheduled departure time.
We'll not offer last-minute booking for outbound tours from Nepal Nirvana Trails such as Tibet and Bhutan. You are required to make a reservation here at least 10 days in advance. Please contact us and we will try our best to accommodate you.
