Appropriate remittence for a guide in Kathmandu

I will be in Kathmandu for 2 days, but the guide I contacted would not quote a price. The culture norm seems to be '; I will accept whatever you think is appropriate '; Does anyone have experience with the cost of guides? One day in Kathmandu and one dayin Nagakot. Thank You

There is also the option of coordinating with a tour company. This is what I did. The company made all the arrangements, made valuable additional suggestions, and then paid my travel guide for me from the funds I paid to the travel company.

I invite you to Private Message me if you%26#39;d like info on the travel company.

Just got back from KTM and Pokhara and trekking with my 5 kids. Yeah, tips are a big thing there, and you%26#39;re right - they%26#39;re all ';whatever you want to give,'; but even the beggars seem disappointed if you don%26#39;t give enough!!! Our guide was awesome, and took care of everything for us for 16 days. However, I think about 1000 to 1200 rupees a day would be fine. That%26#39;s like $20 to 25 a day I think.
