Fares & routes: quick answers
Are these fares fixed?
No. The fares shown are indicative starting points for a private vehicle. The exact, all-in price depends on your vehicle, group size, season and stops. We confirm it on WhatsApp before you travel.
What is included in the fare?
A private hire normally includes the vehicle, fuel and the driver. On multi-day jeep tours the driver's meals and lodging are included or a small, clearly stated add-on. Entry fees, permits (such as ACAP) and your own meals and hotels are separate.
Can I get a one-way transfer instead of a round trip?
Yes. Most routes can be booked one way or as a return, and long-distance trips can be part of a longer loop — for example Pokhara to Chitwan and on to Kathmandu without doubling back.
