  • One of the best mountain experiences of my life. Travel doesn't get easier than with the Himilayan trails team. I got to sit back and enjoy the experience while they took care of me along the way. The guides know everything and everyone and are easy to trust and fun to be around for long periods of time. This team knows what really counts when making exceptional experiences. Look no further for guided travel perfection.

    Through the Kimkim platform, Himalayan Trails (HT) planned and coordinated a 2 week trip from Beijing to Kathmandu for my US based daughter and I. Having traveled extensively to more than 40+ countries, we had a very positive experience working with HT. Key reasons: - timely and thorough communication before, during, and after the trip - experienced staff that were nuanced in their understanding of important details - demonstrated flexibility in modifying the schedule to accommodate personal preferences - effective use of local guides/resources that are very personable and knowledgeable of the location and key attractions - the entire team is focused on ensuring client satisfaction I highly endorse HT's services, even for the most discriminating clients.

    We had the most amazing honeymoon, thanks to Himalayan Trails. Amanda was so helpful in the months leading up to the trip and organised a trek in Langtang Valley and then some days in Sarangkot. When we arrived in Nepal we were looked after every step of the way. Thank you to Amanda, Raj, Suman, Prokas and everyone else involved. You really made our trip memorable. We will be back!

  • Perfekte Organisation und voll auf unsere Bedürfnisse zugeschnittene Tour. Wir waren 10 Tage im Langtang Gebiet und Gosaikunda unterwegs. Die Vorbetreuung durch Amanda und das Vorgespräch mit Raj waren optimal. Unser Guide (Kesap) kümmerte sich rührend um uns und wusste auf all unsere vielen Fragen eine Antwort. Er bereitete uns hervorragend auf den jeweiligen kommen Tag vor und organisierte alles perfekt rund um jedes Teehaus. Unser Träger (Dipak) war immer bei uns, unterstütze uns immer als „Nachhut“ und stand uns bei ebenfalls dauernd zur Verfügung. Wir konnten uns einfach auf die Landschaft, die Leute, die Höhe einlassen. Eine Traumtour, trotz teilweise schlechten Wetters. Wir würden sofort wieder Himalayan Trails wählen. Vielen Dank für die wunderschönen Tage!

    Perfectly crafted custom MTB trip in the Annapurna region. Our guide, Suman was truly incredible and made our trip 100% Type 1 fun with just the right mix of adventure and luxury. This company goes above and beyond to support sustainable tourism and perfects the combination of cultural experiences with hardcore adventuring. Already looking forward to my next adventure!

    I just finished my second trip with Himalayan Trails, and it was just as epic as the first in 2019. Across both trips (first trekking in Solukhumbu, and then motorbiking to Mustang this time), the itinerary, the food+ activities, the scenery and the crew have been fantastic. The company is ethical, sustainable, knowledgeable and fun, and the crew mirror this. We went as a family group of 12, crossing 3 generations, and both times they worked with us to make sure everyone had a great experience, including our 70+ yr old 'Umma'. A huge thank you for 2 'trips of a lifetime' 🙏

    Truly a trip of a lifetime. Once we had decided to spend a month exploring Nepal, we pretty well handed the organisation on to Mads and the team at Himalayan Trails and never looked back. The passion and professionalism with which every aspect of our trip was planned and executed was absolutely top rate, leaving us to soak up the whole experience of extraordinary people and places, stress free. Our guides were not only extremely knowledgeable and experienced, but excellent company and the accommodation, when not trekking, always exceeded our expectations. We will never forget the exhilaration of walking in those mountains, especially on the crisp, clear day we crossed the Larke Pass on the Manaslu circuit with the dawning sun painting the mountains golden. Our wildlife safaris in both Suklaphanta and Bardia National Park again exceeded expectations, not just in terms of the amazing wildlife (yes we did see two Bengal Tigers!) but again the expertise and professionalism of the guides and excellent accommodation. I cant recommend Himalayan Trails highly enough and are already planning our next trek with them. Thanks again to the whole team for making the memories from this bucket list trip ones to cherish.

Himalayan Trails – Professional Guide Training 202 Himalayan Trails – Professional Guide Training 2026

We recently conducted a three-day Professional Guide Training in Kathmandu Valley as part of our continued commitment to maintaining high professional standards.

The training, led by Ms. Jo Chaffer, focused on strengthening both technical skills and professional mindset. Our guides refreshed their knowledge on delivering effective briefings, working with maps, risk assessment, decision-making, and safely managing groups on challenging terrain. Special emphasis was also placed on proactive communication and following Himalayan Trails protocols, especially when situations become difficult in the mountains.

It was truly encouraging to see the enthusiasm and active participation from all our guides — from senior members with decades of experience to our newer and aspiring guides.

We sincerely thank Jo for dedicating her valuable time and sharing her expertise with our team. We would also like to acknowledge our guide, Suman Thapa, who assisted in the training for the first time. We appreciate his effort and commitment in taking on this additional responsibility.

We are proud of our team’s dedication to continuous learning and look forward to a strong and successful season ahead.
