FAQs

No. There are no ATMs on this trek route. You will have to draw enough cash in Pokhara or Kathmandu. There are a number of ATMs in these cities. Everything is paid in Nepali rupees. So money should be exchanged before the start of the trek.

Yusef showed us all the must see places in Istanbul, dropped and picked us up in front of each stop with perfect timing . He was very friendly, helpful and patient with us and all our requests . We have had the most unforgettable time in Istanbul and would 100 percent recommend Goldenvan Travel . Ps- the van itself is just so comfortable and luxurious!
