The short answer
A Muslim-friendly tour needs halal food, prayer times and clean prayer space. Plan hotels near halal restaurants, ask the operator for halal meals in advance and allow prayer stops. Kathmandu, Pokhara and the Terai towns have mosques and Muslim communities, which help with food and prayer locations.
On trek and in remote areas, vegetarian meals are the simplest option. State your needs at booking.
