Nepal Himalayas Insider Tip

Acclimatise properly — gain no more than 500m of sleeping altitude per day above 3,000m. The rule 'climb high, sleep low' is not a suggestion. Tsum Valley requires a special restricted area permit on top of the standard Trekking Information Management System (TIMS) card and ACAP/Manaslu permit.

Mumbai Insider Tip

Bargain at markets. The local train is the city's lifeblood — rush hour is not for the faint-hearted.
