All-in is the package price plus everything the package leaves out, per person, two travelling together.

What all-in includes

All-in is the package price plus what the package leaves out (flights, meals, hotel, porter, gear) plus what nobody includes (tips, insurance, visa, water and Wi-Fi). Per person, two people travelling together, twin share. International flights are not counted.

When an operator's page does not say whether something is included, we show a range: the lower figure assumes it is in the price, the upper figure adds it. 2 of 12 operators here leave at least one item unstated, worth up to $70. The list is sorted by the upper figure, so that nobody looks cheaper by saying less. You can change that under More sorting.

The bar under each price: package left out not stated

Your budget

Pick an operator, then make it yours: how you travel, how much you spend on the trail, what you need to rent. Everything the operator leaves out is already in, and the result is per person.

Your gear
Tick what you already own. The rest is counted at what it costs to rent there.

How we count

Package price is the operator's regular published price per person for two people sharing a room, taken from the operator's own website on the date shown. Where the operator publishes group-size tiers we use the tier for two. Sale prices are noted but the regular price is used.

Left-out cost is what you still pay after booking. If an item is not in the package we add the reference figure above. If the operator's page does not say, we show a range: the lower figure leaves the item out, the upper figure adds it, and the list is sorted by the upper figure. Tips, insurance, visa and daily extras are added for everyone because no package covers them.

Currencies. Operators publish in USD, GBP or EUR; we convert to your chosen currency at daily mid-market rates. Prices are "from" prices and change with season, group size and exchange rates. Check the operator's page before you book.

Independence. No operator has paid to be listed and there are no affiliate links on this page. If that changes, it will say so here. Terms.
