Disclaimer

1. Affiliate Disclosure

In plain language: Some links on this site are affiliate links.

This means: if you click a link to a trekking agency, tour operator, gear shop, or booking platform and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.

We only recommend partners who meet these standards:

  • Government-registered in Nepal (TAAN + local permits)
  • Visited by us in person
  • Verified client reviews
  • Fair guide wages

Our integrity pledge:

  • We never accept free treks in exchange for positive reviews
  • We always disclose affiliate relationships
  • If a partner disappoints a trekker, we remove them from our recommendations

2. Not a Trekking Agency

We are not a tour operator, trekking agency, or travel agent.

We do not:

  • Book permits for you
  • Arrange guides or porters
  • Handle payments for treks
  • Provide emergency rescue or medical services
  • Offer refunds for canceled treks

Your contract is directly with the trekking agency you book through our affiliate links. We are only a referrer.

3. Accuracy of Information

We strive for accuracy. But:

  • Trail costs, teahouse prices, and permit fees change
  • Our stories reflect our personal experiences, not universal truths
  • What worked for us may not work for you

Always double-check critical information (permits, flight schedules, accommodation availability) with your hired agency or official sources (NTB, TAAN).
