To understand Tamang culture and how they spend lives was our main motto which we have succeeded only because of Trekking Team Group. Many thanks to Shree and Arjun who have enormous knowledge about the community. We were Nepal to do a research about the Tamang community and their culture for our university project. We have gain significant facts about the community that reflects their living standard, their origin, and their culture. If you wanted to have local living experience or home stay trek in Nepal then definitely the Tamang Heritage trail would be your best choice. Jacklien Fernado London
This is ADVENTURE travel, and many of the trip destinations in this site are remote areas, within under developed countries, where events are less predictable than is usually the case in. The unexpected is the norm in these areas and, despite painstaking planning and organization, our adventure trips can never be taken for granted like regular trips. Many of the places that we visit do not have the same quality of emergency health and safety services that you are used to in the developed world. Internal flights can be canceled, road transport is generally uncomfortable and unreliable, and hotels often do not approach the standards of the West.
IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED FOR THIS, YOU SHOULD NOT TRAVEL WITH US. This unpredictability also means that the itineraries that we put forward for each of our trips should be seen as statements of intent, rather than as contractual obligations. A variety of factors, including weather, transport difficulties and political instability, might dictate that we change any itinerary. The trip leader will make any changes that are necessary, after consultation with the group. Only rarely will such changes be significant, and we will always do everything within our powers to minimize the effects of the enforced changes. We cannot be held responsible for the results of changes or delays, irrespective of how they are caused.
