Cultural Considerations Cultural
Considerations
For those of you who visit Nepal, we
recommend cultural information so you can adapt and feel comfortable: The dress
code is essential for both men and women. Men and women should wear pants
instead of shorts when travelling in Kathmandu. Women must try to be more
modest as possible than men in these situations.
Hindus are concerned about the ritual
contamination of food when touched by someone outside their caste or religion.
Therefore, do not feel cooked meals and do not touch your lips when drinking
from a container used by others. Do not eat with a left hand and only give or
receive with your right hand. Shoes are considered degrading. So keep them on
the floor and pull them out before putting your feet on anything. When entering
a Nepalese house, follow your host's example to decide if you need to take off
your shoes. However, when you enter a temple or monastery, you must take them
off.
On the way, you will pass Buddhist
walls, chortens, and Buddhist stupas, follow local traditions, and should turn
to the right.
Travel insurance
Travel insurance for every itinerary of
our company is a prerequisite for booking a vacation. At the very least, you
must have emergency and repatriation health insurance, which should include the
cost of mountain rescue, theft, loss, damage, and clinical problems. It is a
brilliant idea when travelling in Nepal. There are a variety of guidelines.
Read the general terms and conditions of your insurers carefully in an
incredibly important part, which is correctly written in the fine print. Some
policies exclude "dangerous activities" (including motorcycling and
trekking and bungee jumping and rafting).
Select a policy covering clinical and
emergency repatriation, including helicopter evacuation for travellers and
general medical evacuation. You may prefer a policy that pays directly at
hospitals rather than issues them locally and claim them later. In Nepal, most
clinical treatments have to pay for upon delivery. If your insurance company
doesn't make an advance payment, make sure you get receipts to make claims
later.
You must know that you will bear the
cost of the evacuation and return procedures. It is your responsibility to pay
for the evacuation or medical treatment. You must be fully aware of travel
insurance's effects and understand the limitations and exclusions of your
policy. Please note that our company guide can initiate helicopter rescue (or
other necessary) operations in medical emergencies without first seeking
approval from your insurance company in certain circumstances.

I come from
India, where the Hindu religion is followed as much as in Nepal. Since a month
ago, I had planned to visit different temples in Nepal to receive blessings. I
am so happy to have been able to visit almost all the temples inside Kathmandu
and more outside.
The tallest
statue of Shiva in the world, Pashupatinath Temple and Muktinath Temple, were
the highlight of my trip. Apart from that, Pokhara and Kagbeni were terrific
and had great importance in culture and religion. Many thanks to Kishor and the
entire team for helping and supporting me during the tour
We are
Hindus and a visit to Pashupatinath was on our minds for a long time. Finally,
we were able to visit the temple with many other temples. The place is a
spiritual awakening and a blessing for us. We enjoyed our time there and felt
refreshed.
The UNESCO
cultural heritage sites in Kathmandu were my favorite part of all the places we
visited. Nepalese food is delicious. I enjoyed my time in Nepal and hope to
return to Nepal soon. Finally, we would like to thank the guides who helped us
during the tour and looked after us. I highly recommend this agency for those
who want to visit Nepal.
