Yeh, we can do this trekking without a guide or porter but we don’t really recommend doing it this way.  If you go on the trip without a guide and porter, that will be terribly inconvenient. And, recently, the government of Nepal is passing a new law that is not to allow individual trekkers independently without a guide and porter.
