How difficult are the treks?
Normally, tea house trekking is easy to moderate. It also depends on the trekking region, route, trekking options etc. In normal saying, short treks are easier than the long ones because long treks need more physical strength. Normally, you need to walk around 5/6 hours in average. If you take a guide then he / she will give you briefing about the trekking routes each day.

What sort of lodges may I expect on the trail?

Trekking is normally done in remote parts of Nepal. So, definitely you won’t get any star hotels there. Normally, you can get small and peace tea houses made by local resources. You may get local produced hygienic foods on the lodges. And, normally you will get a comfortable bed and sometimes you may get private bathrooms and sometimes you may need to share common bathrooms.
Commonly, in some case if you are a single traveler then you may need to share your room with another person. Your guide will try to provide you single room but in some cases there are lots of examples of room sharing on the trail. So, we heartily request you to be prepared for that if you are a single traveler.
And in some cases you may not get rooms available in the lodges because of the large number of trekkers. In that case even you may need to sleep in the dining hall, please be prepared for that. This happens only in the extreme conditions.

What sort of water will I get?

Your water won’t be included in the package trip. We recommend you to bring some tablets of Iodine to put in the water. You can request for water to put in the bottle in the hotel and put your iodine tablet in the bottle. Iodine has proved as 100% effective way of purifying water.
And, you can get mineral water on most of the trekking routes. But some trekking routes have banned mineral water and on those trekking routes you can get safe drinking water station. You can refill your empty bottle with purified water from safe drinking water stations.
