Tips for your Nepal Holiday

Here are some handy tips for your Nepal Holiday which will stand you in good stead when meeting local people.

  • Use both of your hands rather than one when giving or receiving something, as this is seen as a mark of gratitude and respect.
  • Instead of pointing with a single finger, use a flat extended hand, especially when indicating a sacred object or place.
  • Avoid touching women and holy men.
  • In Nepal, people do not normally shake hands when they greet one another. Instead, they press their palms together in a prayer-like gesture, known as ‘Namaste’.
  • Do not eat with your left hand. It is considered an uncivilized act to use the left hand for eating.
  • People in rural Nepal are not used to Western dress, so be careful not to wear anything provocative. Women should wear full, long-sleeved dresses, and avoid showing too much bare skin. Short skirts and shorts should not be worn.
