What is our Wandr Safety Rating?

Our safety grade combines CDC guidance, healthcare access, travel risks, and regional stability to help you prepare confidently. Updated regularly to reflect current conditions.

A (90–100): Very safe — Excellent healthcare and low travel risks
B (75–89): Safe — Minor precautions recommended
C (60–74): Moderate risk — Limited access or regional health concerns
D (40–59): Higher risk — Caution advised due to instability or health gaps
F (0–39): Not recommended — Major safety or medical concerns

Wandr Safety Rating:

C (Elevated Risk)

68/100

Nepal is generally safe, but travelers should be prepared for limited healthcare in rural and mountain regions. Altitude sickness is a major concern at higher elevations, and mosquito-borne illnesses can occur in the lowlands. The CDC typically recommends hepatitis A/B, typhoid, rabies (for extended stays), and altitude and insect precautions depending on your itinerary.
