What's Included in Lyn Taylor's Adventure Tour Prices and How Are Single Travellers Handled?

Lyn Taylor's Adventure prices are quoted per person on a twin-share basis, and what's included varies by trip. Some itineraries bundle international flights and government fees, while others don't state inclusions beyond the price itself. Single travellers are accommodated through a single supplement on most tours, but at least one women's-only Nepal trip waives it in Kathmandu and Pokhara.

How prices are structured

Every price listed on the site is per person, twin share — meaning the rate assumes two people sharing a room. If you're travelling alone, you either pay a single supplement or ask to be paired with another traveller.

What's included in the price

Inclusions are only spelled out for some trips:

• Bhutan tours (Best of Bhutan Paro Festival, Black Crane Festival Bhutan): the price includes return flights from Bangkok to Paro, and reflects a 50% reduction in Bhutan's Government Sustainable Development Fee. Both are based on a minimum two-person booking.
• Annapurna Circuit & Kingdom of Mustang: no single supplement applies in Kathmandu and Pokhara.
• All other tours: the site lists a price and departure date but does not itemise what's covered. For these, you need to confirm inclusions directly — the published price alone doesn't tell you whether flights, internal transport, meals, or permits are part of the package.

How single travellers are handled

The site gives you three distinct situations:

1. Single supplement payable — stated explicitly for Best of Sri Lanka ($1,500) and the Women's Nepal Cultural Tour ($600).
2. Single supplement waived in specific cities — the Annapurna Circuit & Kingdom of Mustang trip has no single supplement in Kathmandu and Pokhara, though the supplement situation elsewhere on that trip isn't stated.
3. "Enquire about our single supplement" — used for Vietnam Cultural Adventure, Langtang Tamang Heritage Trek, Silk Road India, and Bali Cultural Tour. This means the supplement exists but isn't published; you need to ask.

For tours where nothing is said about single pricing (Bhutan trips, Essence of Japan, Mardi Himal Trek), treat the supplement as unknown until confirmed.

What to confirm before booking

Because inclusions are inconsistent across the listings, ask these questions for any tour you're considering:

• Is the single supplement payable, and how much is it?
• Can I be matched with a same-sex roommate to avoid the supplement?
• Are international flights included, or only the ones explicitly named (e.g. Bangkok–Paro)?
• Is the price still valid at the minimum booking number, and what happens if that minimum isn't met?
• For Bhutan trips, does the 50% SDF reduction apply to my departure date?

Lyn Taylor has been organising women's-only international trips since 1993, and the company also runs mixed-group and family-friendly departures — so "women's only" is a category within the offering, not the whole catalogue.
