About the Accommodations

In Kathmandu and Pokhara, you will stay in comfortable hotels with private bathrooms, ideal for relaxing before and after your journey to Mustang.

During the Mustang Jeep Tour, you’ll spend your nights in traditional teahouses and local lodges located in the heart of Mustang’s remote villages. These accommodations are simple but atmospheric, offering an authentic glimpse into local mountain life. Rooms are usually private (twin beds), and bedding is provided. While basic, the lodges are clean and welcoming, and extra blankets are available at higher altitudes where nights can be cold.

Facilities such as bathrooms and showers are generally shared and vary in quality. Hot showers may be available for a small fee. Dining areas are cozy and serve as warm gathering places in the evenings.

Electricity and Wi-Fi may be available in some locations, often for a fee, but expect limited or no connectivity in more remote areas. Power cuts are common, so bringing a power bank is recommended.

Please note: it is not always possible to book single rooms in the remote lodges of Mustang.

About the Meals

During the Mustang leg of the tour, all meals are included. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner will be served in the lodges or teahouses where you stay. You’ll have a choice of meals from a menu that typically includes dal bhat (rice, lentils, and vegetables), Tibetan bread, momos (dumplings), noodles, pasta, soups, and more. Vegetarian options are always available.

In Kathmandu and Pokhara, breakfast is included at your hotel. For lunch and dinner, you are free to explore and try the many excellent local restaurants at your leisure.

Tea and coffee are included with your meals in Mustang. Other drinks, such as soda or bottled beverages, are available for purchase.

We recommend bringing a reusable water bottle. In most places, you can fill it with filtered or boiled water for a small fee. Bottled water is available but discouraged due to plastic waste in this fragile environment.

About the Activities

This journey through Mustang is a cultural and scenic overland adventure. You’ll travel by jeep through one of the most unique landscapes in Nepal—characterized by vast canyons, windswept plateaus, red cliffs, ancient monasteries, and traditional Tibetan-style villages.

Each day includes short walks, monastery visits, and cultural stops. Although you won’t be trekking, you will still be spending time at high altitude (up to 3,800 meters), so staying hydrated and taking it slow is important. The tour is designed for comfort but still allows for exploration and meaningful contact with the local culture.

Roads in Mustang can be rough, bumpy, and dusty, especially after Jomsom. Your experienced driver will navigate these conditions safely. We recommend bringing warm layers, a scarf or mask for dust, and a spirit of adventure!

Additional Days

Would you like to stay longer in Lo Manthang or add extra nights in Pokhara? No problem—this tour can be customized to your wishes. Additional charges may apply depending on your choices.

Special Insurance

Travel insurance is required for this tour and should include medical coverage and emergency evacuation. While helicopter evacuation is unlikely on a jeep tour, it’s still wise to be prepared for emergencies in remote areas.
