Thank you very much about your question and curiosity about the trekking management, permit, guide , porter, transportation , tent and itinerary.

After Ghunsa village There will come Khambachen, Lhonak and Kanchenjunga base camp. Actually kanchenjunga base camp is day hike from Lhonak and come back there for staying Lhonak. so, There is house for sleeping in Lhonak generally two nights , still we recommendation the very warm and good sleeping bag even tent or no. From Lhonak you can come back to Ghunsa one day because the way is down and easy at the time of the come back. As you know it take two days at the time of going up to the way of base camp from Ghunsa to Lhonak. Tea house lodges belongs to people from Ghunsa village. Village people of Ghunsa will go Khambachen and Lhonak if more trekkers are there on the way up there. otherwise we have to request the lodge owner for the key of the kitchen, at that time we need both sleeping bag and tent because they just give Kitchen Key of Lhonak and khambhen if lodge owners donot go with you. if you have no tent mattress at this condition you can hire your own way in Ghunsa. This is the reason condition of the tent need or no. As already mention sleeping bag and tent no inclusive in this prices because tea house way we are going to operating the trek Kanchenjunga.

Dear Ms s. Basu
Thanks very much about the trekking management question. As you know , Kanchenjunga trekking operating two ways. camping and tea house trekking. either camping or tea house, sleeping bag is necessary. we are going to organize the tea house trekking so, no included the tent. Tent is necessary Khambachen and lhonak if only not opening the tea house by the people of Ghunsa. It take 2 days to reach Ghunsa Lhonak, where is also lodges operating by the people of Ghunsa. in case if you need, you can hire from Ghunsa for 3-4 days. if we manage tent it need another porter, kitchen stuff so, charge will be more. in my previous experiencing the trekking, we just take sleeping bag there.

Tea house condition from Ghunsa to Kanchenjunga base camp and Ghunsa to se le le pass
Up from the Ghunsa village there are Three point 1. Khambachen , Lhonak and Kanchenjunga base camp. That places we recommended the tent. There are two reason better have to tent. 1. if low number of trekkers going to the kanchenjunga base camp, local people donot like to go from ghunsa to the khambachen, lhonak and kanchenjunga base camp. Major things is all the seasonal lodges owners are from Ghunsa village. if they go no problem, otherwise they only agree to give kitchen key if they believe you where you can cook your food. in case you have no tent, food to cook , stove you can hire in the ghunsa village. if you management all things from Kathmandu, Naturally cost will be expensive. so, this is tips and ideas we offer for the budget way trekking in kanchenjunga base camp.
Ghunsa to Se le le pass
From Ghunsa or after finished Kanchenjunga base camp if you like to pass se le le there is also same things. there are one seasonal lodges and Dharmashala in se le le, open in case more tourist otherwise you have to tent there and cook food. After passing se le le either you have to phone the people of the Yamphudhin to open the lodges. Generally it took one day they come from Amphudhin to Cheram, Ramche,yoktung, Torang,Annaphedi.
Dear s. basu,
I managed the tour of kanchenjunga best prices than other agency. I hope another business from your friend as well as. As you say , you have already 20 kg pagback, if there is a tent , mattress, need a another porter and have to hire a tent. I think one tent , 2 mattress, 2 sleeping bag will be enough for you. Just tent need 2 or 3 places if no opening the tea house above from Ghunsa. For your reviews the map , i like to clear the things. Basically it take 3 days to go kanchenjunga from the Ghunsa village. all lodges above Ghunsa are seasonal and opening if there are more trekkers to go base camp. otherwise we have to request them and paying the daily wages for 3 days, so that they open and make a food for us and give accommodation there. It will be still cheaper rather hiring extra porter and rent a tent, kitchen equipment.
Last time, we did kanchenjunga base camp trek depend upon sleeping bag. we have to pay little extra for the people Ghunsa in case there are no more tourist going up from there, then they will do that. First option, we can hire local people from the Ghunsa to the Kanchenjunga base camp for 3 days if no more trekkers. first things we have chances to stay in the lodges in Lhonak and Khambachen. at that condition just sleeping bag will be enough and no need to hire tent and extra porter.
i did the same trip, above this ideas. My customers or trekker also happy , i also happy for the eco friendly way. if we are agreement like that ways, your previous prices quotation might be ok. Further i like give one information that you have to make insurance paper for the kanchenjunga trip. we made our field staff and porter insurance from here.
hope to exchange ideas and digging more style for easy trip to kanchenjunga.

Dear Naba,
You didn't get me right. Actually we are like to stay in tea houses rather than in tent. I just want to know, if we pay rs 800000 / head then do we have to pay more for stay in tea houses?
