Why to travel with us ?

Support Local Communities

Local communities are the backbone of any real conservation movement. A substantial part of our income goes directly to the capital of the cooperative and to support eco-development projects ensuring that all the members and shareholders grow in a collective way. Economic stability allows them to experience a better standard of living and encourages them to conserve their own forests and natural resources.
For years community members have had to deal with the dominance of more powerful market players. Through our tourism initiative we are making an attempt to level the playing field – give our members a chance to earn a fair income and give them the power to make important decisions.

You will make a difference with us by promoting sustainable development in the Himalayas. And of course we strictly follow the principles of Ecotourism.

Joy and Sustainability in the Himalayas

Every trip you take with us impacts the surroundings in many ways. We follow a strict ecotourism policy that is in sync with the principles of conservation. Our accompanying guides are trained in trekking and hospitality but more than that bring a natural warmth and helpfulness typical of small communities that instantly puts our guests at ease.

True to our motto, we aim at making every trip memorable, insightful and meaningful for our guests. From the reviews we have received, we can be sure we’re sharing more than just the experience of an outdoor hike – we’re sharing joy and making memories.

Personalized Experiences

Every trip with us is a personalized, curated experience for our travellers because we understand that every traveller is different and wants a different travel experience. Our team has spent years in the sustainable tourism industry, and are able to curate a trip exclusively suited to your liking.
When you travel and stay with us, we deliver nothing short of the best standard of hospitality for our guests.

We function as a cooperative. Feel the difference !

There is no distinction between a guide, a porter, a cook or an office fellow. Everyone is a shareholder in the enterprise.
