In the Everest and Annapurna regions, you stay in our purpose-built Eco-Comfort Camps - designed to give you space, warmth and comfortable retreat in remote mountain environments.
Your fixed, standing-height tent is already set up on arrival and equipped with raised beds, proper mattresses and pillows, so you rest well at altitude.
A dedicated dining tent creates a welcoming place to gather, with cushioned seating, mountain-view windows and, on colder nights, a pot belly stove for warmth.
Private ablution blocks feature western-style toilets and wash basins - a rare advantage in the Himalaya.
These camps combine low-impact design with a higher level of comfort, forming part of our In Comfort range.
On our wilderness camping treks, you travel fully supported and self-sufficient through remote landscapes, camping in carefully chosen scenic locations far from villages and roads.
Quality two-person tents with good ventilation are set up for you each day, along with a dedicated dining tent and a private toilet tent with a sit toilet. Your experienced crew manages all logistics, including camp setup and freshly prepared meals, so you can focus entirely on the trek.
This style of travel allows you to go further into true wilderness while keeping your environmental footprint to a minimum. These treks form part of our Classic Adventures range.
In cities and larger towns, you stay in carefully selected 3 to 4 star properties chosen for their character, comfort and location.
These hotels are typically centrally located, making it easy for you to explore on foot and experience the atmosphere of each destination. Each property is selected based on consistently high traveller feedback and long-standing relationships built over many years.
In the Annapurna and Everest regions, you stay in specially selected eco lodges that meet strict environmental and operational standards.
These permanent mountain lodges offer solid structures and private rooms while maintaining a strong sustainability focus. They operate without burning wood, helping reduce pressure on fragile alpine environments, and follow established menu and hygiene guidelines to ensure consistent quality throughout your trek.
This approach allows you to experience traditional Himalayan hospitality while supporting lower impact practices in the mountains.
