Nepal is full safe country to Travel  It is relatively safe to travel within Nepal at present, and as always when you travel to an unfamiliar country you need to be aware of what to do to minimise the risks, wherever you travel to. There are some additional risks at present, however the risk of an incident is very low, when compared to travelling to London or New York for example. Almitra Von Willcox, who has been to Nepal twice now recently said she found Nepalese people "very lovely and friendly". She also stated that "Nepal is safer than my own home town of San Diego, USA in terms of robbery, car accident and shoot outs".

Ask yourself this question - Is there a town within your country or state where it is unwise to be alone late at night, wearing expensive clothes, watch or carrying a laptop or some other valuable item ?  Of course there is and yet many people go there, but they avoid the "No Go Areas" and most of them enjoy their trip.

A holiday in Nepal will expose you to additional risks, but the benefits far outweigh the risks.  Trekking along mountain trails is exilerating, so is rafting the raging rivers - these are the real risks you will be taking, compared to the anti social behavior of a few lost souls.

.

The view of the British Government is...·  

 25,000 British nationals visited Nepal in 2007 (source: Nepal Tourist Board). Most visits were trouble free. The main types of incident for which British nationals required consular assistance in Nepal in 2007 were: replacing lost and stolen passports; arrests, mainly drug-related; and hospitalisations, generally as a result of trekking accidents. You are strongly advised to use a reputable Local travel agent which is fully registered under the regulation of Nepal government and only trek with an experienced guide and in a group. {Mountain Sherpa trekking & Expedition [http://www.guidenepal.com]}is one of the reputable Local travel agency based in Kathmandu. They organize all kind of Nepal outdoors adventures activities like trekking, expedition, tours, rafting etc. MST provides very reasonable price comparing to the others international companies. They are really very professional, highly trained staff. I am complete satisfied with their service & would like tp highly recommend for anyone who willing to travel Nepal in future.
