Homestays are simple family homes with basic amenities; rooms can be shared and bathrooms are communal — the experience prioritizes cultural exchange over hotel-style privacy.
Local breakfast, lunch and dinner are included as per the itinerary, featuring Nepalese home cooking like dal, rice, seasonal vegetables and locally produced bread.
Sirubari sits in the Himalayan foothills under 2,000 m — altitude sickness is unlikely for most travelers, but take normal pacing and hydration precautions.
Sirubari’s homestay program grew from community efforts to showcase Gurung culture while reducing out-migration; the area’s farming terraces reflect centuries of local adaptation to steep slopes.
The village emphasizes low-impact tourism and agricultural sustainability; visitors are encouraged to avoid single-use plastics and support local businesses directly.
