Langtang Valley trek

Langtang Valley trek was indeed an Epic Adventure. Our stellar mountain guide Shree taught us about the local culture and led us to one of the most incredible villages I’ve ever seen. Yaks, monks, monkeys, and sublime nature. This trek will definitely be one I never forget. I highly recommend Epic Adventures and my friend Shree to any fellow travelers exploring the Himalayas!

Safe and happy trekking

Was on a 15-days Langtang Valley trek with my 2 daughters in Oct '18. We enjoyed ourselves throughly, and most importantly, did not have any health or injury issue from the trek. Our guide, Pasang; and the two porters, Ramesh and Prakash made the trip a safe and happy one. They were always watching out for us and was attentive to our needs. They go about doing their task quietly, and when needed, they provided us the required information. They were clean, cheerful and careful. The Langtang trek was a wonderful experience. The first day trek from Syaburbeshi to Sherpagoan (an elevation of > 1,400m) was the toughest and it got us prepared for the rest of the trek. The climb up Kyanjin Ri (4,300m) and Tsego Ri (5,150m) was the highlight of the trip. After the trek, we went for the Mountain Flight to have a closer view of Mt Everest. We were impressed with the service of Buddha Air. On the first morning, the captain had to fly back (after taking off for about 20 minutes) as the Mt Everest could not be seen due to clouds. The airline did not charge us for the canceled flight. They were prepared to give the refund or we could schedule another flight the next morning which we did. This time, we went again and saw the entire Hilmalaya range, including Mt Everest, from a close range. Last but not least, we were happy with the service of Hilmalayan Smile. KP (the boss) was always responsive to every question we have....before, during and after the trek. He was the man who made the arrangements. After this trek, we are planning to go back for another trek in Nepal!!

Response from the operator: Warm greetings and thank you, Mr. Voon, for choosing us, the compliments are so kind of you. We're glad to serve you the wonderful Langtang trekking as well as Everest mountain flight. And it will be too honor to provide you the excellent service again. Until then, have good fortunes ahead. Lots of love from Nepal!

Langtang Valley Trek: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kathmandu.

How much does Langtang Valley Trek cost?

+

Prices start at $400 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kathmandu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Langtang Valley Trek take?

+

Plan for about 240 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kathmandu is not rushed.

Is Langtang Valley Trek worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kathmandu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Langtang Valley Trek?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Langtang Valley Trek suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 10. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 240-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Langtang Valley Trek?

+

Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kathmandu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kathmandu and add a light layer if any part of the 240-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Langtang Valley Trek start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kathmandu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Kathmandu?

+

On Outty we rank every Kathmandu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kathmandu Sightseeing | UNESCO World Heritage sites Private/Group, Manaslu Circuit Trek, Manaslu Circuit Trek: Private Group & Discounte Price. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Kathmandu?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Kathmandu?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

What is included in Langtang Valley Trek?

+

Included: All additional government tax; Two-night accommodation in Kathmandu at three-star hotel with breakfast; Breakfast; Airport to hotel pick and drop by private vehicle; and Accommodation food, drinks, salary, insurance, transportation of trek guide and porters. Not included: Nepal entry visa fee (USD 25 for 15 days/ USD 40 for 30 days from the date of issue) (You; International airfare; Travelers insurance; and All Meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) during trekking. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

Does Langtang Valley Trek include hotel pickup?

+

Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2 listed pickup locations in and around Kathmandu. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time.

What languages is Langtang Valley Trek offered in?

+

It is offered in Chinese, Japanese and English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Langtang Valley Trek?

+

Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

What happens to Langtang Valley Trek if the weather is bad?

+

It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Kathmandu. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
