- Drink only bottled or boiled water
- Avoid tap water, and ice cubes which may be from unfiltered water.
- Eat well-cooked food
- Avoid unpasteurized dairy products
- Wash hands frequently or use alcohol-based sanitizer
With Wind Horse Tours:
- We provide bottled drinking water in our vehicles during sightseeing tours
- On treks, we supply boiled drinking water at campsites and during the day. All meals on trek are freshly prepared and cooked hygienically by our trained staff. Additional fluids such as tea and juices are provided with meals during the day,
- As an extra precaution— while trekking—it is recommended that you carry a personal water filter or water-purifying tablets, even though safe boiled water is provided. This offers added flexibility during long walking days and remote sections of the trail.
