Is it necessary to book an additional porter for the four day trek if you dont want to carry your pack? One member of the party is a fit 61 year old. Or is a porter included in the normal price? Is the first week in March a really bad time to be doing the trek?

Thanks.

Grant.

Hello Grant,

Well, if you don't want to carry your backpack, yes it is necessary to hire a personal porter because other porters are for group gear. Group porters are included in the price but personal porters no. The price is US$ 90 and you have to ask for it during the reservation process. No, March is the end of the rainy season and the weather is not too bad. It rains, of course like the rest of the year, but it is not a problem for the trek.

Should you need anything else, feel free to contact us again.

Best wishes,
