The amount for tipping depends on the trek’s length, difficulty, and your satisfaction with their service. Basically, you can tip for the guide, Climbing Sherpa, 12 to 15 % and for the porter, 10 to 12 % of your full payment for your trekking package.

Note: It is just for your idea about tipping your guide and porter, but if you are happy and satisfied with their services, you can tip them more than this. Tips are always expected in the tourism sector of Nepal.
