Yes, If you're flying into Nepal you need a passport to show at the airport in Nepal

Yes, you would need a minimum of 3 days more. We can help you with the arrangements.

On a trek one is expected to carry your own backpack. Trekkers unable to do so can opt for a porterage service accordingly. The charges for this are 1000 NPR per day per bag

You can arrive in Pokhara on day1 till 5pm (latest) and leave from Pokhara on the Day 10 in the evening after 4pm

We recommend each trekker take his/her individual travel insurance from India (own country) itself. The travel insurance in Nepal is very expensive. To be on a safer side and for a strong mind set, having an individual travel insurance that covers medical emergencies is recommended specially when one undertakes outdoor expeditions such as trekking and mountaineering.
