  • Kailash Manasarovar Pilgrimage with Himalayan Joy Adventure

    The trip was moderately difficult but very rewarding pilgrimage. Himalayan Joy adventure arranged entire trip for our family. Cholendra and his people became like a family to all of us. Their kindness and hospitality is matchless. On our back descending, my daughter had acute mountain sickness. Cholendra went above and beyond in helping us late in the night at Kathmandu hospital and helped us like a family member with bringing food and buying clothes for us. He made sure to check us on our health and meticulously planned even when our visas to Tibet got postponed. So our trip in the beginning did not start on time due to the delay in the visa process but that was nicely handled by him. Tika, Purna, Ramesh and Tibet Sherpa Peama, Tashi and our car driver all were very kind and simple people who made us all happy throughout the trip with everything.

  • Call to Kailash answered!

    Our visit of 21 to Kailash is something that is going to stay with us for a very long time, thanks to "Himalayan Joy Adventure". From the time we arrived in Kathmandu, right through Lhasa to Kailash and back, Choleindra and his team made sure every single detail that was essential for this life time pilgrimage was meticulously organised. Each day, at the end of a hard trek, there was a hot lemon drink waiting and all vegetarian meals were freshly prepared to cater for the different tastes of the pilgrims, aged from twenties to sixties. Every detail was attended to and valuable advice was forthcoming before and after the trip, and even when snags were encountered, the team of guides were there with a smile reassuring the best for the pilgrims. Would recommend "Himalayan Joy Adventure" to anyone planning a trip to Kailash without reservations.

  • Bike and Trekking

    It was a last minute trip. Booking was done 1 week before the trip through facebook messenger and with no money exchange until I have reached Kathmandu. The level of trust highly commended.

    First I did a motorbike trip from Kathmandu to Pokhara and surrounding area. The guide was Kishor. He was a good rider and have a good knowledge of the area we were visiting.

    Next was trekking to Poon Hill. I had an issue with my trekking guide. Informed Cholendra near 11pm at night before the trek. Cholendra managed to find a replacement to fly in the next morning and proceed with our trekking with no delay. Nara was my replacement guide. He was polite and handle things professionally.

    Before I left, I had a day visit to Nagarkot with Cholendra and the driver Bim and a day visit around Kathmandu.

    Overall, I had a great time and I enjoyed it very much. Will come again.

  • Excellent trek to Mount Everest Base Camp!

    Himalayan Joy Adventure arranged our trek in an excellent way with all their experience, skill and care. Cholendra made sure everything was organized and according to our plans, and our guide Tika made it happen with his professionalism, attentive to our limits, in combination with his never ending fascination with the mountains he knows so well. Step by step, garlic soup and warm hats, he made it possible for us to take part of this fantastic landscape with its well adapted people.
    I can highly recommend this tour company.

  • Superb visit in Nepal

    This was our second trek with Himalayan Joy adventures, and our second time was as remarkable as the first. Tika was our guide to Gosaikunda, and he took excellent care of our group. He was very thoughtful and patient, and also sensitive to our abilities.
    Cholendra took excellent care of all of our arrangements in Nepal, and made our trip very enjoyable. He even took care of retrieving our lost luggage from the airport.
    I highly recommend Himalayan Joy Adventures if you are planning a trip to Nepal.

  • An amazing trip throughout Nepal

    It would be difficult to exaggerate the care Cholendra and his team took at every step (literally) of the way during our 15 days in Nepal. We set out on a trek for Gosaikund Pass mid March and although snow and a touch of altitude sickness resulted in a changed itinerary, we had an amazing walk through these mountains. Our guide Tika and porter Nora explained the plants and showed us the animals on the way and were careful and helpful with us (3 people in their 60s..) Cholendra also arranged accommodations for us in Khatmandu, Chitwan and transportations for several other legs of our trip. They are extremely "client focused" and both attentive and kind. A true "Himalayan Joy."

  • “Best trip ever - 15 days Nepal round trip (Dec 2016)
    My family of four travel a lot but this trip to Nepal (Kathmandu, Gorkha, Tansen, Pokhara,Lumbini, Chitwan etc) - organized & accompanied by Himalayan Joy Adventure (HMJ) - was one of best trips ever. And this was not only because of this wonderful country and it's specific spirit. The team of HML was so sincere, very professional, always ready to help, prescient and trustworthy throughout the trip - no matter if it was the the Managing Director (CHOLENDRA), the guides (esp. TIKA RAJ, the driver and Cholendra's new hotel team in Kath. i.e. Sampada Garden Resort. And it all came from their hearts. I highly recommend HJA! 6-star service.
