- christinerosier0 contributionsNépal discovery3 weeks of discovery organized by Hymalayan Holyland Treks and Expedition. They took care of everything on the best way, very gentle and available, taking great care of all the group. Bijay was our guide in Kathmandou area, Siba and Dourga were our guides for the 7 days of trek. All of them have been full of kindness. A really nice and great travel I will never forget it, thank you so much!Written 29 October 2024
- 918veroniquef0 contributionsMera Peak 🏔️This was my 3rd trip to Nepal with Bijay, so you can say I’m a fan 😉 This was the most challenging one as we were going on expedition to Mera Peak summit (6476m). The first days in Kathmandu, Bijay made sure we had everything we needed to make our trek a success. He also took us on some sightseeing. The trek itself was also perfectly arranged so we only had to think about making it to the summit, putting one foot in front of the other and enjoying the magnificent views. The teahouses, the food, the guides and porter, the flight from and to Lukla, the material we needed,… it was all taken care of by Bijay. We all made it to the summit healthy and happy, and the whole experience was truly amazing, we enjoyed it to the fullest. Thank you Bijay and the whole team for making our dream of summiting Mera Peak a succes. I’m already dreaming about my next trip to Nepal, and no doubt it will be with Bijay again. Best guide you could wish for! 🙏 Ps. Make sure you also visit Mhendo cafe of Ajay, his brother, at Swoyambhu!Written 5 October 2024

- xiangyangs20240 contributionsBest trip everI just did a two-day mountain guide trip in Nepal, and it was amazing! The trek through forests to stunning Himalayan views was incredible. Our guide was awesome, super knowledgeable and friendly. The mountain lodge stay was cozy with epic sunrise views. It was challenging but totally worth it. Highly recommend for a real Himalayan adventure!Written 30 June 2024
- 391wannesd0 contributionsA flexible and a wel put together tripThrough a recommendation we got to know our guide Bijay. During the preparations for our trip, he assisted us in an excellent manner. We were able to perfectly communicate what we wanted to do and see, and how we wanted to divide our month in Nepal. Bijay was able to create a beautiful and feasible plan from this, making additional suggestions if needed, and with some back-and-forth communication, we assembled the perfect month in Nepal with a lot of variety. Everything was arranged by Bijay, which ensured that we had minimal worries during our trip, as certain things are more difficult to organize in Nepal without a guide or someone who knows the country. For example, I still wouldn’t be able to navigate public transportation without the help of other Nepalese or a guide. Throughout the journey, we were able to make adjustments without any issues if we felt like changing things up a bit. Last-minute changes were no problem for Bijay and were arranged on the same day. He ensured that we could fully enjoy our month in Nepal and see as many things as possible. Having a guide in the cities is also definitely an added value, as it allows you to learn about the many stories and myths of the faith and recognize these stories in the images and paintings at the temples. If I ever come to Nepal again, I would undoubtedly arrange my trip with Bijay once more.Written 28 May 2024
- OdielH10 contributionsNEPAL: an amazing variety of fun activities!Bijay is amazing! We contacted him with some rough ideas of where we would like to go to on our 1 month Nepal trip. Next, he worked his magic and proposed a full travel itinerary, consisting of cultural visits, a trekking, national parks... The itinerary was very flexible: both before and during the trip all changes we wanted to make to the travel plan could easily be incorporated. All our guides were amazing. I highly recommend taking guides with you as they give you so much insights in the Nepali culture and religions. Overall we had a great time in Nepal and felt very comfortable in the hands of Bijay. It is clear that he was really trying to let us get the most possible out of this trip. To give you a rough idea of our epic itinerary: visiting cultural heritage sites in Kathmandu, observing the life of monks in monasteries, rafting on the Trisuli river, trekking near the Annapurna range, adventurous activities (MTB, quad vehicle, paragliding) in Pokhara, spotting tigers in Bardia & rhinos in Chitwan, scenic mountain flight to the Everest region and experiencing religious festivals in Kathmandu.Written 26 May 2024
- milanr7370 contributionsGREAT TEAM AND PROFESSIONAL GUIDINGThe trek I did was Annapurna sunrise trek with Himalayan Holyland Treks and Expeditions. They organized me this trek with gentle care and all the professional ways. We had a very good time with them and sharing their knowledge and experience of the treks was amazing and very helpful for us and everyone who like trekking. I would definitely recommend this team and Himalayan Holyland Treks and would like to do it next time as well.Written 26 March 2024

- MarkS108780 contributionsAmazing tour guide for trekking in NepalBijay is an excellent tour guide. He helped us have an unforgettable experience hiking the Langtang Valley. We finished our trek at the peak of Tsergo Ri at 4984m with an amazing experience and sense of accomplishment. Bijay handled all the planning expertly from the time we landed in Kathmandu including transportation, lodging, restaurant selection even a packing list ahead of the trek. During the trek, Bijay was great at teaching you how to trek at altitude all while sharing stories of local culture and heritage. When I get to go on another Trek in Nepal it will be with Bijay. Aside from the Langtang Valley, Bijay guided us on tours around Kathmandu and Pokhara showing a real passion for the Nepalese and hindu culture as well as history. You can't go wrong planning a trip with Bijay.Written 25 March 2023
- 862geoffs0 contributionsAmazing tour guide for personalized Nepal tripsBJ was an excellent guide. We used his services while on a family trip to Nepal. He arranged a 4 day hike that was suitable for all of us including my 75 year old father. He was knowledgeable and personable. He found great accommodations and was able to react to situations as they arose. For example, when my father's chronic knee problems started acting up, he found a horse magically in a small village to ensure he could continue the trek. I'd highly recommend him and would book with him again if I return to Nepal.Written 24 March 2023

Super nice and very professional guide. A beautiful fluid organization as part of a journey based on spirituality 😀. Walking around Bodnath’s stūpa every morning and participating in a ceremony in a monastery for an hour is an exceptional meditative experience. Attending a funeral ceremony in Pashupatina is a highlight.

Me and my friend did short hiking and Changu Narayan Temple day tour with Prakash Aryal. Our hiking trail is easy, peace and attractive. Prakash tell us about plants and animals. There is one traditional village near by Changu Narayan Temple. Changu Narayan temple is really beautiful hind temple. This is pagoda style or nepali style temple. This is ancient structure include ancient statue of Gods and Goddess. Prakash is really knowledgeable guide in Kathmandu. So we want to recommend this company with guide Prakash Aryal for your happy trip to Nepal. Namste.

We loved our visit to Nepal. We wanted to see the true Nepal. So we contacted Bijay and he proposed an excellent tour. He is an amazing guide, kind and funny. His knowledge is complete. We visited Nepal with family under the expert guidance of Bijay and his brother. We saw a lot: historical sites, visit to Chitwan national park, cultural, .... And we also did a trekking. You name it, he will do it. We loved it all. We learned a lot about life in Nepal and about the rebuilding after the massive earthquake.
When I ever go back to Nepal, I will definitely book a trip with Bijay!
