Trekking in Nepal with a Spanish-Speaking Guide | 2026 Guide
Trekking in the Himalaya with a guide who speaks your language changes the trip. You understand the story behind every monastery, you can explain clearly how you feel at 5,000 m, and you meet people in the villages without a language barrier. Unique Nepal is a local Kathmandu team with licensed Nepali guides who speak Spanish.
Why trek with a Spanish-speaking guide?
- Safety at altitude. Altitude sickness is spotted earlier when you can describe symptoms well. Our guides check your oxygen every day with a pulse oximeter.
- Culture. They explain Sherpa, Gurung and Tamang customs, festivals and mountain Buddhism in your language.
- Peace of mind. Plan changes, flight delays or problems are sorted without misunderstandings.
A guide is mandatory. Since 2023, foreign trekkers must walk with a licensed guide in most of Nepal’s national parks.

When to go
The best seasons are March to May (rhododendrons in bloom) and October to November (clearest skies). June to August is monsoon; in those months we recommend Upper Mustang, which sits in a rain shadow.
Permits and visas
Each region needs a national park or conservation-area permit; some areas, such as Mustang or Manaslu, need a special permit. All permits are included in our prices. Nepal’s tourist visa is issued on arrival at Kathmandu airport (about USD 50 for 30 days).
How much does it cost?
An organised trek with guide and porter typically costs about USD 600–2,000 per person depending on the route and length. Our 14-day Everest Base Camp trek starts from USD 1,350, with Lukla flights, a Spanish-speaking guide, porters, teahouse lodges, trek meals and permits.
