Utse started 28 years ago as one of the first restaurants in Thamel and contributed to develop Thamel into a major touristic area, now hotel Utse with 52 well-appointed rooms with all modern amenities aspiring off from it's old restaurant. The old Utse Restaurant continues business just next to the lobby of the hotel with the same Tibetan, Chinese and Continental cuisines prepared by the same cooks as 28 years ago and served by devoted waiters with a blend of Tibetan, Nepali, Chinese and Continental fare. The Lobby, a traditional Tibetan decorated living room where one may relax with a book, chat with a friend, enjoy a cup of tea and slice of cake. Enjoy breakfast, drinks or snacks on the sun-drenched roof top garden in plain view of the eternal Himalaya and the golden spires of the city.

Camping or Tented Trek in
Nepal

The other major decision to make is whether you want to go on a tented trek or a teahouse trek. On a tented trek you do not sleep or eat in the lodges. The staff carry your food and kitchen supplies, as well as the tents you will need. Every evening they will set up camp (for a fee, included in the price quoted to you), often in some of the same villages you would ordinarily stay the night at, or at any other reasonable stop you suggest. Your food is prepared for you by the cook accompanying you, with a mixture of supplies carried in, and local produce to contribute to the economy of the village you are staying at. Your suggestions are always welcome. A toilet tent will also be pitched at every stop.

 

The advantage of a camping or tented trek is that you really are the master of your time and space here. If you are in a group, in particular, this can be a good way to bond with the people you're walking with. If you're solo or a couple, it is a good way to get some much-needed privacy. You can to a large extent control what you get to eat and when, or even cook, if the fancy strikes you. (This is not irrelevant - for most trekkers, the stomach is the most important organ of the body.) Tented treks epitomize all that walking in the mountains is really about - adventure, roughing it (a little!), truly getting away from it all, and being as close to nature as you can be without sleeping directly under the stars.

 

Tea Houses or Lodge Trek in Nepal

A teahouse or lodge trek means that you stay and eat at the lodges along the way. On the classic routes, every planned night stop is well equipped to deal with trekkers - there are numerous lodges that cater to western tourists. There are pros and cons. The beds are usually comfortable, which is a bonus, but the toilets can be far from you at night. The atmosphere can be convivial in teahouses, but in high season this can also mean real overcrowding and delays in the kitchen.

Since not everyone wants the same kind of experience while trekking, based on advice from previous clients we offer a modified and we believe more convenient version of the lodge trek. A teahouse trek organized and supported by Tin-Tin will get you a guide, porters, accommodation in a lodge with breakfast, the conservation area or 'trekking' permit, and land and/ or air transportation to the start and end points of your trek. Tin-Tin costing for teahouse treks includes only breakfast; you are responsible for lunch and dinner, and don't need to eat a pre-ordered meal that your guide orders for you. In virtually all trekking regions with lodges you are expected to eat in the lodge you stay at. The reasoning behind this is that the beds are provided cheap, but to keep a lodge running the owners need to make additional profit. To not eat your meals at your teahouse puts the Tin-Tin guide/ sirdar with you in an awkward and financially disruptive position. Finally, a word on prices: food and drink (especially bottled drinks) cost more the higher you go. It's obvious why - it came up the same trail you did, and someone, a porter, had to carry it up for a fee. So remember that while a lodge trek might seem comparatively cheaper, you're not going to save as much if you drink Coke and beer at high altitude.

 

Payment

Your reservation form should be accompanied by a non-refundable deposit  per person booked, for the entire group.

Tin-Tin Trekking reserves the right to revise this fee at any time. The deposit can be paid in the following ways:

1. The most reliable and economical way is a wire transfer to one of our bank accounts. Please make sure to send us the Transaction ID once you've sent the money out, so that we can follow up at our banks in case of a delay. We have two bank accounts, details are as follows -

 

a) Nepal Bank Limited

Head Office

Tin-Tin Trekking & Adventure (P).Ltd.

A/C No.0002-11-0027716

New Road (Dharmapath)-Kathmandu, Nepal

Telex No. 2220 LUXMI NP
SWIFT CODE : NEBLNPKA

 

b) Bank of Kathmandu

Kamaladi, Kathmandu, Nepal

Tin-Tin Trekking & Adventure (P). Ltd.

A/C No US $ :010000002439

Telex No: 2820 BOK NP

Swift code: BOKLNPKA

 

2. By credit card (Visa and Master) over fax. This service is faster than a wire transfer, but costs extra (5%) because of the processing fee levied by the credit card companies.

 

3. Through a Western Union or Money Gram transfer. Although this is generally the fastest way to make a payment, it is also quite expensive.

 

While we will, to the best of our ability, accept bookings up to the last minute, it is in your interest to make reservations and put down the deposit as early as possible.

 

The remaining balance sum payment must be made on arrival in Nepal, before the start of the trek/ tour.

 

All payments, deposit and final, must be in US $, whether cash, travellers' cheque, or Visa/ Mastercard (subject to 5% service charge). We do, however, accept major currencies such as Euro, Australian and Canadian dollars, Pound sterling, at the local rate of exchange. 

 

Note: The bank commission fee max.$ 20  per transaction will be beard by the agency.

 

Cancellation and refunds

Should you cancel your trip with us, you will forfeit your deposit, which is kept low for this reason. There will be no refunds for facilities, accommodation, meals etc planned as part of the package if they were not used. There will also be no refund if a passenger leaves a trip for any reason, voluntarily or involuntarily, after it begins.

 

If you decide to postpone, we are willing to work out a solution wherein there will be no charge or penalty for postponement, but your new reservation will be subject to whatever changes there might be in cost or conditions for the tour or trek booked.

 

The prices quoted here are based on airfares, exchange rates, and costs in effect on the date shown. Should any of these change considerably, whether due to hikes in airfare, security or other government regulations and taxes, or any other external reason, we reserve the right to alter the costs shown. Clients may not claim refunds or bonuses based on dramatic changes in exchange rates.

 

Delays, Changes, Interruptions, Incomplete Trips

Tin-Tin Trekking will not be responsible for any circumstances beyond its immediate control. If a trip is cut short or interrupted, if there are delays or changes in the itinerary due to an act of domestic airlines or helicopter companies, the weather, changes in local situations, poor road conditions, strikes, or any other reason out of our control, Tin-Tin Trekking will not be responsible for any refunds or reparations or compensation for inconvenience caused. There could also be small changes within itineraries, depending on the desire and fitness of the group.

 

Insurance

Every passenger wishing to travel with Tin-Tin Trekking must be covered by travel insurance that covers cancellation, accidents, health, emergency evacuation, and loss, theft of, or damage to, baggage and personal effects. Your travel insurance must be valid for the specific activity of trekking, if you plan to do so, as it is often listed under mountain climbing and can be exempt from coverage unless specified. It is strongly recommended that your insurance cover emergency evacuation, including helicopter transport within Nepal. If your insurance company does not cover emergency evacuation, you are bound to pay all incurred costs in cash. Comprehensive travel or evacuation/ rescue insurance cannot be purchased once in Nepal. Tin-Tin Trekking will not be responsible for any medical costs incurred, nor rescue operations, nor repatriation to home countries.

 

Health

To do a trip with us, you must be in good health and physically fit. If you have any pre-existing medical conditions you must consult with your doctor before booking with us. If you plan to join one of our extended treks, we strongly recommend undergoing a thorough medical and dental examination before you leave home.

 

Visas and Valuables

It is solely the passengers' responsibility to have valid  passports and all visas and equipment listed required on their tour. We will not accept responsibility for any passports or documents left with us for this purpose nor will we take responsibility for any other valuables of a client.

 

Risk

The passenger  understands that during the course of the trip, certain risks and dangers may occur, including, but not limited to, the hazards of travelling in mountainous terrain, accident or illness in remote  places without medical facilities, and the forces of nature. The passenger  agrees to assume all risks associated with the journey, and agrees  that no liability will be attached to the company or its employees or agents, or to any member of the tour group in respect to death, injury, illness or delay, or for any loss or damage to the property of the trip,howsoever caused.
