Best time for Mustang Tour
A trip to Mustang is always unlike anything else. It’s fun-filled with visitors getting to discover stunning places like Kagbeni and Lo Manthang. These places radiate all year long but mostly puts out the best sight in autumn and spring.
Spring is a great time to visit Mustang, following crisp weather and crystal-clear views. As the icy winter fades away, the climate becomes warm and provides a delightful ambience. Travellers get an extra hour of daylight to explore the region and relish splendid sceneries.
The refreshing breeze blowing from the mountain makes the trek to Mustang relaxing and more effortless during spring. The average temperature is around 16 to 22 Degree Celsius in the daytime, while the nights are slightly cold with temperature dropping as low as -6 Degree Celsius.
Just like spring, it’s easy to enjoy views during fall provided a mild atmosphere, colorful tree leaves, and yellowish hills. Visitors can see the colors of autumn through mud-brick walls and gompas which look spectacular during the season.
The weather is lovely during autumn, with trails covered in vivid coloured leaves. With monsoon washing the dust particles in the air, views get clearer in the season. The arrival of autumn makes the valleys look fabulous and turns the forest sprightly.
Winters in Mustang are frigid with heavy snowfall and icy wind. Villages are blanketed in snow which looks spine-chilling but puts up a great view. Daytime temperature is usually around 0 to 5 Degree Celsius while at night, it drops to -20 Degree Celsius and sometimes even -25 Degree Celsius.
The weather is icy during winter so you must carry a lot of warm clothes when travelling the region. It would help a lot if you stay informed about the weather forecast; otherwise, the trip might get cancelled.
Monsoon in Mustang usually starts from mid-June and reaches its peak in July and August with storms and wild rainfall. The trail becomes muddy in the season, given which it’s tough to ride the vehicle.
The average temperature in Mustang during Monsoon is 13 to 20 Degree Celsius. Meanwhile, the nights are slightly cold, with the temperature falling up to 0 to -3 Degree Celsius. High winds and storms often impede travellers’ journey during the monsoon, which is why you must be careful while visiting the places in the season.
Cost of Mustang Tour Package
The expenses for the Mustang tour package depends on the length of your vacation in the region and the facilities used. The longer you stay in the region, the more it’ll cost you. As for a solo traveller, the Mustang tour package can cost anywhere from US$250 to US$300 Per day.
The package includes the cost of amenities like lodging, fooding, and vehicle service. The package doesn’t cover expenses for any personal items, including your dinner and hotel service in Kathmandu. In case you want more luxurious services, the cost of the tour package will likely become higher.
Besides, if you choose to travel alone or don’t like sharing the jeep, then the cost will rise, no doubt about it. You may also see a rise in the amount of Mustang Tour packages if you decide to extend your stay in the region. Since the cost doesn’t include personal expenditures, you must save an extra amount for souvenirs and drinks.
Food and Accommodation during Mustang Tour
Accommodation during the Mustang Tour is super varied, but all of them equally standard. Visitors have an array of options to choose from, including well-maintained hotels and lodges. However, in the remote area, you’ll mostly find tea houses, which are usually less expensive than the other accommodations.
The facilities available in these tea houses are basic, with just a comfortable bed, a pillow and a blanket. The rooms are neat and well put together so that you can get a good sleep. Apart from dwelling, foods available in the tea houses are delicious as well. They are made of seasonal items and other local products, which are healthy and nutritious.
Usually, visitors are offered authentic Nepali food such as pulses, vegetables and rice. Over the years, hotels and lodges have started providing other dishes like Tibetan noodle soup, steamed dumplings, and flatbread with curry.
Preparations for Mustang Tour
Mustang Tour Package is probably one of the most comfortable expeditions, as it barely involves any trekking. The entire trip to the town will be made by jeep, so the excursion doesn’t need any special preparation. However, you must have to carry basic items like clothing, personal toiletries, and medicines.
The weather in Mustang varies in different seasons. Hence, depending on which time of the year you’re travelling the region, prepare the backpack accordingly. Ensure that you have your water bottle while on a Mustang tour as travellers quickly get dehydrated while touring the region.
Other than that, you can try some cardio exercise to stay fit so whenever navigating the rough terrains. You might also like to carry some extra cash and prescribed medicines for emergencies.

Good experience in Buthan tour
I joined the tour of Buthan for 3 nights. Although the price is high because I am in a solo trip, the quality is good! Buthan is the cleanest country in the world! You don’t need to worry about anything just be happy and excited to join the tour! I just went for 3nights-tour, but I did visit Paro, Thimpu, Punakha ! Although not every sighting sites that would visit, the important sites would not miss! This is my second time join the tour in this travel agency, and I was satiated with it every time ! They will handle everything well.
