Before booking any travel trip with any trekking, travel agency, it is quite an important to get some information related to the company that you are dealing with. You have to make sure, is the company registered to the government? Is that fully reliable and do they have insured all their guides?

This is to illuminate at the time because there may be found such many companies running business without observing legal formalities imposed by the country act, and even not registered with the concerned office authority. Some never insure their guides and if something happens then we have to feel pity about them. Likewise, it has been reported that some companies have been running business whose licenses have already expired and not noticed and punished in charge of the unlawful act. We have seen many examples of so - called trekking / touring agencies operated by individuals & freelancers illegally, and some on commission basis with other agencies by creating their own personal website or by contacting personally.

Even if the practice is illegal as per country act, it has been found in abroad that some tour operators have been involved in directly operating tours and trekking without any co-operation with local agents and without paying any tax for the government of concerned country for doing so. In that case even the tourist can be in trouble. So make sure you book with someone that has base in Nepal.

In order to be secured in such obligations, take the following hints in consideration prior to confirm your journey with any trekking & travel agency.

• Has the company registered to government authorities?
• Has the company insured staffs against accidents?
• Is the company environmentally conscious?
