Travel Tour Programs
We offer guaranteed tours! If you have booked a tour with us, it will happen – get ready to travel to Nepal 😉
Prices depend on group size. The bigger the group, the lower the price. That is mainly due to the better rates that we get from hotels and transportation, when travelling with more people.
Yes, the smallest number of travellers joining our tours are two people.
Our groups will not be joint by more than 6-8 travellers. You will accompanied by at least one tour guide and a personal driver.
Yes, we offer travel groups for only female travellers. Nevertheless, your guide and driver might be males though.
If you already have a “ready-made” travel group, please let us know in your enquiry. We adjust the tour dates according to your wishes.
If you are a single traveller joining a travel group, it will be difficult to adjust the whole program to big changes. Depending on the group’s interest slight changes are always possible though – given they are in budget and timely and geographically manageable.Â
If you travel with your own group (family and friends), we can easily create a fully personalised travel tour according to your personal interest on sights that are not initially mentioned in the program. Just let us know about your plans, the number of travellers, and the lenght of your holidays. After having calculate everything, we will send you an estimate.
All our travel tour programs are led by a local certified and well-trained tour guide with at least fluent English language skills. The tour guide will accompany you through the whole program, being available for you 24/7.
Please, don’t hesitate if you have any problems, difficulties or any other issues that might disturb you. We are here for you!
We do not offer full trekking programs because our aim is to show you the real Nepal. Of course, you will see the mighty Himalaya in our tours as the mountains are part of Nepal. But they are just a single part of this amazing country.
Most of the travellers come to Nepal just for the mountains. They have never got to know the country, the culture and the myth. For most tourists, Nepal is just Himalaya and Buddha. But did you know that the huge majority of Nepalese people are not even Buddhist (only 15%)?!
Travel with us and get to know the real Nepal!

As it is common practice, you will have to pay for your travel tour in advance, i.e. before the travel tour has started.
We know that being a local tour operator, you might have doubts about paying in advance. For your secureness and concern, we have decided that you can pay us on the day of your arrival in Nepal.

But you need to bare in mind that even if you have booked a fully organised tour, there is still a lot of organisational work for you to do (flights, visa, insurance, packing, vaccinations, etc.)…
