Real Info From Someone Who’s Actually There
I’m Ram — a licensed trekking guide with over 10 years leading treks across the Himalayas. Everest Base Camp, Manaslu Circuit, Annapurna, Langtang, Ghorepani — I’ve walked every route on this site, in every season.
I built Nepal Trek FAQ because I kept watching the same thing happen: trekkers arriving with outdated permit costs, wrong gear, and packages they’d overpaid for. Local guides — skilled, experienced people — earning a fraction of what agencies charge. This site exists to fix that. No booking commissions. No sponsored recommendations. Just what I know from the trail.
