                                      Why doesn’t Holiday Planner Nepal encourage joining groups or traveling with other travelers?

                                      What we believe in is when you book the trek solo or with the group you know the solo traveler or the group book it solo because you don’t want to join a group and want to enjoy the trek by yourself and the cost is the same so why to join a group and ruin the experience.

                                      Everyone has different mentality according to which the chemistry may not match up when joining a group which may lead to bad experience.

                                      What is the difference between joining a group, going solo or with group you know?
