Long experience in the Nepali Himalayas has provided us with valuable insight into making each trip successful. Here is how we make your trip safe, exciting, joyful, and memorable.

• We want our valued clients to arrive in Kathmandu a day earlier in the afternoon before the trek/expedition departure date. This is important because you need to attend our official briefing - before the trek starts. The briefing provides you with information about the climate and weather conditions that you will face. You will also get a chance to recheck your equipment and other necessities you might need during the trek.
• We also provide some valuable tips on staying healthy in the high-altitude Himalayas and what we do in the event of an emergency.
• Please consult with your doctor before planning the trek in the Himalayas in case you have heart, blood, or other types of diseases.
• We suggest you perform a light exercise in the morning such as walking or cycling. Higher elevation demands physical and mental strength more than technical skills. So the more you exercise, the more enjoyment you can get from your trip.
• We advise our clients to purchase a travel insurance policy that covers helicopter rescue and medical evacuations. This will help you during emergency cases in high elevations.
• Our trek/expedition leaders or guides are experienced, well-trained, and specialized to handle altitude-related situations. They will inform you about acute mountain sickness (AMS) and arrange your hiking/ walking plan to avoid this problem.
• We advise you to drink plenty of water each day (3 or 4 liters daily), mainly while traveling at high altitudes. Walk at your own pace and drink garlic soup.
• Avoid drinking alcohol, wine, cigarettes, sleeping pills while traveling to the Nepal Himalayas. We also advise you to avoid non-veg items as they are not hygienic. Instead, you need to eat fresh fruits, vegetables, and cereals.
• Our flexible itinerary allows you to ascend slowly providing you adequate rest time and proper acclimatization on the route.
• We follow the principle - hike high and sleep low - to prevent high mountain sickness in each trip above 3,500m.
• Your team leader or guide takes some essential medical kits for primary treatment.
• We provide the best hotels or lodges throughout the trip and offer you the best hygienic food.
• DWT takes your care right from the pick up to drop off at the airport (Arrival to Departure).
• Though not in the package, we can arrange your accommodation and transportation needs during your stay in Kathmandu and while taking part in outdoor adventure activities.
• DWT arranges private transportation on all longer road journeys for comfort and freedom.
• We make sure of your domestic flight tickets, climbing permits, and hotel reservation at the prescribed time. For this, after your booking, please send us your documents as soon as possible.
• Our guide provides a purified tablet for safe drinking water and has an oximeter to measure oxygen and pulse levels from time to time.
• You can securely store your unnecessary stuff in our office. During the trek, we advise you to take only the essentials.
