like to book partial that can be done
with us. May trekkers ask only trekking
permits and Tims card which we don't
sell this only.
Am
I too young or old for Trek?
We have had a range of ages on our
trips, from teenager to pensioner, and
all have enjoyed themselves without any
problems.
I
am a single trekker. How does this work?
Normally single trekkers have no
problems fitting in with a group.
Normally single trekkers share rooms or
lodges with other trekkers of the same
sex, but if we have an odd-number we
ensure that a room or lodge is organized
accordingly. Angel Tours and Trekking
also organize individual tours/trekking
for single travelers too.
Will I be able to deal with the high
altitude?
Our itineraries are designed so that our
clients ascend at a sensible and safe
rate. The effects of altitude are felt
by everyone, even the Sherpas, but most
people find that gentle acclimatization
allows them to reach their high point
without any problems.
How
will my booking be processed?
To confirm your booking we will require
a non-refundable deposit of 30% of the
total payment as downpayment or $300 for
treks and $800 for a climb which can be

payable on arrival in Kathmandu and is
normally made in the form of cash. We
