TMT specializes in all-inclusive trekking packages from Kathmandu, some with heritage sightseeing tour. Depending on accommodation, these packages can be budget-friendly adventures or luxurious getaways. We can also provide individually tailored packages to match your interests and preferences. Don’t hesitate to contact the TMT team for a personalized quote based on your itinerary and preferred options.
Suppose you have time to stay in Nepal a little longer after trekking. In that case, we can arrange additional excursions such as a Chitwan jungle safari tour, a Lumbini, Pokhara, Nagarkot tour, or rafting. If your itinerary does not include visiting Kathmandu’s UNESCO World Heritage sites, we can arrange a sightseeing tour before or after your trekking experience.
Not all itineraries will work for every client in their original form. That’s why we confidently offer the ability to modify all our itinerary programs to align perfectly with your interests and holiday schedule. Conversely, we can shorten specific itineraries when feasible or even create a brand-new, customized itinerary just for you. Our mission is to ensure your holiday is enjoyable and exceptional. Contact the TMT team today for a personalized quote tailored to your ideal itinerary and preferences. We’re here to make your adventure a reality!
Using an agency like TMT offers numerous benefits that make your trip much more comfortable. When you book a trek package with us, you won’t have to worry about where to go, how to get there, or finding a place to stay overnight, especially during peak seasons. Traveling with a licensed local guide is also significantly safer. By choosing TMT, the trek becomes a shared responsibility between you and the agency.
