The countries mentioned are Afghanistan, Iraq, Cameroon, Ghana, Somalia, Swaziland, Palestine, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, Ethiopia, and Liberia, and they cannot obtain a visa for Nepal on arrival.

The best time for a tour in Nepal 

You can travel all year round in Nepal, and each season shows a different landscape. However, it is convenient to know the climatic season. Usually, two seasons are considered the best: Spring and autumn, and the season is divided into four different climatic seasons: 

Spring (March, April, May):

During this time, the lowlands are slightly warm while the higher elevations are temperate, with many opportunities for amazing views of the mountains and countryside. At this time, flowers, especially Nepal's national flower, the rhododendron, adorn the soaring heights with their blaze of color and beauty. The high-altitude huts also open and fill with mountain lovers. 

Summer (June, July, and Augusta:                                                                                                              

It is monsoon season in Nepal. At this time, the weather is hot and humid. It rains almost every day with occasional thunderstorms at night. The rain makes the vegetation very green and pleasant. If you are planning a trekking tour this season, we recommend choosing Nepal's rain-protected areas. Even if you don't mind the rain and want to trek in this season, be sure to bring an umbrella, Pancho, good waterproof trekking shoes, windproof jackets, luggage cover, raincoat, and the necessary insect repellent. The reward of this month is the view of the lush green valley captured by small flowers. It is a beautiful time to observe the agricultural cycle of the monsoon and traditional Nepalese life.

Autumn (September, October, and November): 

This time is considered the best time to travel in Nepal, with summer and winter arrival. The weather is delightful, as the views of the mountains are superb. The trekking routes are embellished by the presence of trekking and expedition groups. Meanwhile, most of the festivals of Nepalese societies are celebrated with enthusiasm at this time.  

Winter (December, January, and February):

During this time, the weather is superb, and the skies are clear, with occasional snowfall at higher elevations. At this time, trekking is fine at lower elevations; however, at higher elevations, most lodges are closed, and it will be somewhat challenging to cross the high altitude passes. This time of year is good for trekking at the lower elevations. The mornings and evenings are freezing, sometimes reaching temperatures of (-) minus, but the days are warm and pleasant.  

Travel Insurance:  

During a trip to Nepal, it is necessary to purchase travel insurance, covering all possible purchases in medical problems or accidents. In particular, your travel insurance should cover air ambulance, treatment costs, rescue and evacuation, trip cancellation and reimbursable expenses, flight delays, and cancellations. We recommend that you bring or send us a scanned copy of your travel insurance certificate and that your home country issues it. We do not sell insurance.  

Vaccination  

It is best to follow the World Health Organization's precautions and other international health institutions that recommend vaccinations before traveling to Nepal to prevent certain deadly diseases. If possible, we recommend bringing your medical certificate with you, but it is unnecessary to show it, just for safety. The recommended vaccinations are polio, diphtheria, tetanus, yellow fever, hepatitis A/B, influenza, Japanese encephalitis, and tuberculosis. In the meantime, it is better to consult your doctor for appropriate recommendations. You can also follow the suggestions of local travelers who have already traveled to Nepal and learn more about the necessary precautions. Keep in mind that the protection that can be achieved with vaccines varies from 50% to almost 100%. Therefore, keep in mind that even though you have significantly reduced your risk of contracting the disease, you can still become infected after receiving a vaccination.
