Check out our Q&As

  • Where does the tour end?

    On the final day you will return to where you began the tour in Kathmandu.

  • What is the age range of the tour?

    We have an age range of 18 – 45 years old for our tours. Most of our guests are aged between 21-35 years old, though this range varies to slightly older with certain destinations, and are looking to experience our adventurous “flashpacking” style of travel. Our tours are perfect for people of all different backgrounds to share travel experiences with like-minded conscious fellow travellers.

  • What is the rooming situation like?

    Accommodation on this tour you will be in a hostel, guest houses and a safari lodge in double/twin share rooms. Single upgrade is available.

  • Can I bring a 20kg suitcase on this trip?

    We wouldn't recommend bringing more than 15-20kg on this tour as it will be more comfortable for you to carry less.

  • Is there WiFi throughout the trip?

    WiFi is available at accommodations during the trip, but it’s not reliable and we would recommend picking up a local SIM card on arrival if you need to be online. In the more remote locations of the trip, connection may be less reliable

  • Will I be picked up from the airport?

    Yes, your tour includes an airport pick-up. Please ensure you inform our reservations team on your incoming flight details.

  • Where should I fly into?

    Tribhuvan International Airport

  • How much spending money do I need for this tour?

    Spending varies from person to person & you'll receive a spending guide in your welcome pack, but $30-40 AUD per day is plenty on average. Tipping is customary in Nepal, especially for good service at restaurants around 5-10% of the bill. We usually find it easier if your group leader says how much the tip should be and everyone can pitch in together to form a kitty which will cover you for any hotels or restaurants we visit on tour together.

  • Is Nepal safe to travel?

    Nepal is generally a safe and welcoming destination for travellers. It's advisable to stay informed about local customs and respect cultural norms, especially in religious sites. We provide more details about this when you receive your welcome pack.

  • Can you cater for my dietary requirements?

    Yes, we can cater for most dietary requirements. Restaurants and eateries in Nepal often offer vegetarian options, and it's usually easy to find delicious and satisfying meals without meat. Please notify us prior to arriving on day 1 so we can arrange this for you.

  • Is there safe drinking water in Nepal?

    In Nepal, it's generally recommended to drink bottled or purified water, especially for travellers. While some urban areas might have treated tap water that locals can drink safely, the quality and sanitation of water can vary widely across different regions and rural areas. To stay safe, it's best to drink bottled water or use water purification methods such as boiling, filtering, or using water purification tablets or drops. This precaution helps ensure that you have safe drinking water throughout your journey in Nepal.

  • Where do we spend the first night on tour?

    Flock Hostel in Kathmandu*

  • How big are your group sizes?

    Our groups are capped at 22 people maximum.

  • Do I have to have travel insurance to come on a tour?

    Travel insurance on all One Life Adventures trips is compulsory and we will check for it on tour, if you do not have travel insurance when you arrive on your tour you will not be able to continue without purchasing it.

  • What's the general age range on your tours?

    We have an age range of 18 – 45 years of age. Most of our guests are aged between 21-35 years old are looking to experience our adventurous “flashpacking” style of travel. Our tours are perfect for people of different backgrounds to share travel experiences with like-minded fellow travellers.

  • Do you operate a “single share” option and how does it work?

    Yes, we do. We cannot guarantee single sex rooming arrangements in multi-share accommodation (e.g. shared dormitory hostels), but twin share rooms will always be single sex.

This was my first time with One Life and it was amazing.

This was my first time with One Life and it was amazing. There was a lot of variety from snorkelling on Gili T to exploring the forest and seeing the monkeys on Ubud. The authenticity of Ubud was beautiful! Overall you get to see what Bali has to offer on those 12 days and it was worth it!
