What is Acute Altitude Sickness (AMS) and how can I prevent it?

Altitude Sickness, or Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS), is your body's reaction to the lower oxygen levels at high elevations. It's crucial to understand that AMS is not a sign of poor fitness—it can affect anyone, regardless of age or physical condition.

Common early symptoms include:

• Headache
• Nausea or loss of appetite
• Dizziness
• Fatigue or unusual tiredness

The Golden Rules for Prevention:

1. Go Slow (Acclimatize): Your body needs time to adjust. Our itineraries are specifically designed with gradual ascents and crucial acclimatization days. Never rush.
2. Stay Hydrated (Drink Water): Aim for 3-4 liters of water daily. Proper hydration is one of the best defenses against AMS. Avoid alcohol.
3. Listen to Your Body: Pay close attention to how you feel. A mild headache can be normal, but if symptoms persist or worsen, you must take action.

What to Do if You Feel Symptoms (Most Important!):

Your safety is our absolute priority. If you start to feel unwell:

1. Tell your guide immediately. Do not hide your symptoms or try to "tough it out." Our guides are trained professionals who know how to manage AMS.
2. Do not go any higher. Rest at your current altitude.
3. If symptoms do not improve or get worse, you must descend. Descending to a lower altitude is the only effective cure for AMS.

Is Nepal a safe country for tourists? What about for solo female travelers?

Absolutely. Nepal is renowned for being a very safe destination, thanks largely to the warm, hospitable nature of the Nepali people. Violent crime against tourists is extremely rare, allowing travelers, including solo women, to feel comfortable and welcomed throughout the country.

Like anywhere, it's smart to use common sense. Keep an eye on your belongings in busy areas like Kathmandu’s Thamel to avoid petty theft. For female travelers, dressing modestly (covering shoulders and knees) is a sign of cultural respect and helps ensure your interactions are always positive.

Finally, there are two crucial rules for your safety. First, do not walk alone at night, especially in poorly lit or unfamiliar areas. Second, on the trail, always obey official signage and never enter restricted areas without the proper permits and your guide. Following these guidelines ensures your adventure remains safe and incredible.
