Important Cancellation Conditions

Some services may have their own cancellation conditions, particularly:

  • Domestic and international flights

  • Helicopter flights

  • Peak climbing and expedition permits

  • Restricted-area permits

  • Hotel reservations

  • Special transportation arrangements

  • Festival-season or high-demand bookings

  • Services specifically identified as non-refundable at the time of booking

3. Refund Eligibility

A traveler may be eligible for a refund when the cancellation is made within the applicable refund period and after deduction of the relevant cancellation charges and non-refundable expenses.

Refunds may be available when:

  • The traveler cancels within an eligible cancellation period.

  • Nepal Himalayas Trekking cancels a trip for reasons within the company's control and cannot provide a reasonable alternative.

  • A supplier refunds an amount to Nepal Himalayas Trekking for a service that was cancelled on behalf of the traveler.

  • An overpayment has been made and there are no outstanding charges.

Refunds may not be available for:

  • Non-refundable permits, tickets, hotel bookings, or other services already purchased.

  • Services already used by the traveler.

  • Missed flights, transport, accommodation, or trekking days caused by the traveler's own circumstances.

  • Voluntary withdrawal from a trip after the trip has started.

  • No-show situations.

  • Cancellation caused by insufficient travel documents, visa problems, personal circumstances, or failure to meet required travel conditions.

Refundable amounts are calculated after deducting actual costs and applicable cancellation charges.

Where a refund is approved, Nepal Himalayas Trekking will normally process it through the original payment method where practical. Bank charges, payment gateway fees, currency-conversion charges, and other transaction costs may be deducted where applicable.

4. No-Show Policy

A no-show means a traveler fails to appear for the scheduled trip, transportation, flight, hotel check-in, trek departure, or other confirmed service without providing prior written notice.

In the event of a no-show:

  • The booking will generally be considered cancelled.

  • No refund will normally be provided.

  • The full trip cost may be charged because suppliers and operational arrangements may already have been paid or committed.

  • Unused services cannot normally be exchanged for cash or transferred to another traveler.

  • Any exception will be considered at the sole discretion of Nepal Himalayas Trekking and may depend on recoverable amounts from suppliers.

5. Force Majeure Policy

Force majeure refers to extraordinary circumstances beyond the reasonable control of Nepal Himalayas Trekking or the traveler that prevent, significantly delay, or make a trip unsafe or impractical.

Examples may include:

  • Severe weather and natural disasters

  • Earthquakes, floods, landslides, avalanches, or other natural hazards

  • Major storms or extreme mountain conditions

  • Government restrictions, closures, or official travel bans

  • Political unrest, civil disturbance, or security emergencies

  • War or terrorism

  • Epidemics or pandemics

  • Airport or airspace closures

  • Major transportation disruptions

  • Strikes or events beyond the reasonable control of service providers

  • Other exceptional circumstances that make the planned trip impossible or unsafe

When Force Majeure Occurs

If a trip is affected by force majeure, Nepal Himalayas Trekking will make reasonable efforts to:

  1. Assess the situation and prioritize the safety of travelers and staff.

  2. Modify the itinerary where reasonably possible.

  3. Offer an alternative itinerary, date, or service where practical.

  4. Seek refunds or credits from suppliers where such amounts are recoverable.

  5. Communicate available options to the traveler as soon as reasonably possible.

Because many costs may already have been committed to third-party suppliers, force majeure does not automatically guarantee a full refund.

Any refund will generally be based on amounts that Nepal Himalayas Trekking can recover from airlines, hotels, transport companies, helicopter operators, permit authorities, and other suppliers, after deduction of applicable non-recoverable costs.

Travelers are strongly advised to purchase comprehensive travel insurance covering trip cancellation, interruption, medical emergencies, evacuation, delays, lost baggage, and other unexpected circumstances.

6. Trip Changes & Postponement

Where possible, travelers may request to postpone or change their trip rather than cancel it.

Requests for date changes are subject to:

  • Availability

  • Supplier policies

  • Permit validity

  • Flight and transportation availability

  • Seasonal conditions

  • Any additional costs imposed by suppliers

Any additional costs resulting from a requested change may be payable by the traveler.

7. Trip Cancellation by Nepal Himalayas Trekking

If Nepal Himalayas Trekking must cancel a confirmed trip for reasons within the company's reasonable control, the company will, where possible, offer an alternative departure date or comparable arrangement.

If no suitable alternative can be provided, the traveler may be eligible for a refund of the amount received for the affected services, subject to the terms of the applicable suppliers and any non-refundable costs already incurred.

This does not apply where cancellation or modification is caused by force majeure or circumstances beyond the company's reasonable control.

8. Refund Processing

Once a refund has been approved and the applicable amount has been determined:

  • Refunds will normally be processed through the original payment method where possible.

  • The processing time may depend on banks, payment gateways, card providers, or international transfer systems.

  • Any bank, transfer, currency-conversion, or payment-processing charges that are not recoverable may be deducted from the refund.

  • Refund calculations will be communicated to the traveler when applicable.

9. Acceptance of This Policy

By making an advance payment and confirming a booking with Nepal Himalayas Trekking Pvt. Ltd., the traveler acknowledges that they have read, understood, and accepted this Trip Booking, Cancellation & Refund Policy.

We encourage every traveler to carefully review the cancellation terms before making a booking and to obtain suitable travel insurance for their trip to Nepal.
