Fantastic! Professional, trustworthy, and authentic trekking. – I couldn’t recommend Himalayan Tahr Treks enough! They were professionally organized and I felt well taken care of before, after, and during the trek. The pre-trek communication with Dawa, the… read more owner, was fantastic and he always had my back whenever I needed something during my entire stay in Nepal (not just during the trek). Our guide was also fantastic – having a guide from the local area who knows the people and culture is what sets Himalayan Tahr Treks apart from all the other trekking companies. Because of our guide’s connections, we were constantly invited into the local people’s homes for tea and food, which is something that you wouldn’t get with one of the larger, less personal trekking companies. We got a truly authentic and off-the-beaten-path experience that you can only get with Himalayan Tahr’s local guides. If you’re looking for a taste of the local Nubri Valley culture with a professional and trustworthy trekking company, then I’d definitely recommend Himalayan Tahr.

Colorado College Trip – Himalayan Tahr did a magnificent job in setting up our visit to the remote and beautiful Serang Monastery. There were 20 people in our party, yet the Himalayan Tahr guides… read more and staff at Serang arranged tasty food and comfortable lodging, and were attentive to our needs. The opportunity to visit and stay at Serang is a unique privilege, and we felt supremely blessed by the experience.

Magical Trek with Himalayan Tahr – I planned to do a trek with Himalayan Tahr to Nubri Valley. This sacred valley known as Kyimolung certainly lived up to its name as the valley of happiness. I… read more was warmly greeted by the local community and enjoyed a hidden and unique part of the world. Indeed, in many ways this area featured well preserved cultural and religious heritage. Furthermore the circuit gives trekkers splendid views of majestic mountains, waterfalls, and traditional villages. While on the trek I also got to witness natural landscapes, flowers, and wildlife such as the himalayan tahr, monkeys, and musk deer.
The expert guides of Himalayan Tahr were capable and we always had many guides for each trekker. Each guide had a strong command of the English language and were quite experienced in leading us along the trail. They assisted us in cultural experiences and were knowledgeable about cultural practices and the local geography. Each place we stayed at along the way had good accommodations and was comfortable.
The destination of Serang Gompa was truly incredible. Every day felt like a dream with breathtaking views from every angle. Volunteering was a truly enriching experience and I enjoyed teaching students and monastics alike. I felt very warmly supported by the people there and enjoyed my stay.
Overall I would highly recommend Himalayan Tahr for anyone coming to Nepal. This tour company made a truly memorable experience and made me feel supported and safe. The itinerary was well designed and the destination was truly memorable. I would definitely trek with them again.

Incredible guides and people! – I had the pleasure of trekking with Tenzing and Lhakpa in 2017. They are both incredibly knowledgable about the Manaslu region and have connections left and right. They are both… read more quick thinkers, expert planners and joyfully energetic people. I felt comfortable and safe every second of this trek even though I was half way across the world in a foreign culture and environment. As far as guides go, you could not be in better hands. They will provide you with an authentic Nepal experience that you’ll remember forever. Can’t say enough nice things about them and the experiences they provide every second of their treks.
