Tibet

Tibet is a most unusual and beautiful place, surrounded by mountain ranges on three-sides, the majority of its land rests above 4000 meters (13000 feet) - the awe-inspiring Himalayas stretching out across the seemingly never-ending Tibetan Plateau. It is a place for rugged adventurers, as well as spiritual wanderers.
Travelling through Tibet is like travelling back in time to a land of secrets and mysticism. Nomads remain much the same as they did over a hundred years ago; roaming the plateau from winter and summer camps, living subsistence lives from their yak herds. Then there is spiritual Tibet and its many monasteries trying to find a place in the 21st Century the Tibetan people and their religion have been inseparable across the ages. Even in their earliest myths and legends, one finds references to Tibetan religious beliefs. Originally, the Bon religion dominated Tibet. After the introduction of Buddhist statues and later Sanskrit documents from India, Buddhism crept increasingly into Tibetan culture. Today\'s Tibetan Buddhism is the culmination of some early Bon beliefs, Indian Buddhist texts and several great Lamas. Buddhism and politics had been interwoven since King Songsten Gampo married a Chinese and a Nepali princess, who were both integral in the emergence of Buddhism. It was the fifth Dalai Lama who actually built the Potala Palace as the government seat and religious centre, where a theocracy prevailed until 1951.
After centuries of virtual isolation Tibet is cautiously opening up to the Western world. Officially, China has only opened the doors for travellers these past few years. A visit to Tibet is an incredible experience, although it is not for the faint-hearted. The travelling is difficult and unpredictable; the infrastructure is almost non-existent and therefore turns a regular tour into something of an adventure. Travelling in Tibet is not your average trip but an experience of a lifetime, Join us to discover “the true spirit of the Himalaya”

We like to thank you profoundly for the magnificent trip we had in the good care of you and your team. We very much enjoyed the impressive landscapes, the rich nature and the plain fact of our trekking and camping in that region. We also got a good impression of the way people live in that part of the world and their culture. We had a great time and it was indeed an unforgettable trip.

We like to congratulate you, and your team, on organizing our three weeks of trekking so well. It went smoothly thanks to your professional attitude, knowledge and experience. We enjoyed the excellent service and the great company your entire team provided. Besides taking good care of us and our personal well-being, you inspire confidence. Special praise deserves Himal’s attention to detail in all practical aspects of the trip.

Another quality is the way you work to inspire all members in the group to become one team, both staff and guests. As a result the whole group gradually developed into a community. A treat of having Himal as our sirdar is his energy, good humour and sense of fun.

In short: we had a great trekking and we cherish fine memories.

Thank you so much and our best wishes,

Kangchenjunga trek 2009 In one word it was fantastic. It was heavy but every step was worth it! Himal and his team are very skilled and can work well together. We had a great time with eachother and the journey was beautifull. I can recommend this to everybody to do this once in their life but ofcourse there is also a warning involved...when i fetched the photo's the other day, i got a feeling of homesickness that i thougt to myself that one time is not enough in such a beautifull place and a fantastic group of people. Renée, the Netherlands.

During three weeks we enjoyed the professional leadership of Himal and his powerful crew, trekking through the Kanchanjunga mountains.We discovered the rough, sweet, and vulnerable sides of this area of Nepal, its rich and capricious nature and the friendly inhabitants of the mountains, while Himal and his people were taking care for us in a way so trustworthy, pleasant and complete in every way, we endured, enjoyed and meet our horizons more we ever imagined before. This trek is a great adventure.

Dear "thinking about teaming up with Visit Himalaya Treks traveller".Since 1998 I have visited beautiful & exiting Nepal several times,always leaving with a strong desire to return as soon as I find a new chance! Nepal touched my heart completely, nature/climate, people, culture.In 2003 I learnt to know Himal Tamang, the company's MD. Besides cultural visits around Kathmandu, Chitwan Nat. Park in the south, also a wonderful group trekking experience to the area of Helambu, some hours by bus north of Kathmandu. Since then we always kept in contact for my next NEPAL EXPERIENCE! I'll tell you why.

This Helambu trekking was so well organized and pleasant, supporting/guiding us to finally pass 4600m' Laurabina Pass. We could enjoy the trekking, scenery and the social aspects to the most thanks to our Nepali supporting team!

Himal's professional, responsible, relaxed but serious and caring attitude towards all of us + his team of Sherpa's and porters was exactly what is important on a trekking in my view. Responding well to any small or major trouble on the way, being sensitive towards the group's interest and individual wishes. Not to mention his patience for the passionate birds & flower, photography lovers amongst us, which slowed the team down a bit...haha.

In 2005 I returned on my own and was so excited to visit Khumbu Valley, but weather conditions forced a change of plan. Pure flexibility on both sides brought us the next day to Annapurna Base Camp area for a 10 days trekking. With our mini-expedition of 3p I enjoyed a fantastic experience again.

A big plus is also his (local) knowledge after so many years of working in and outside Nepal. Plus the bridge that can be built by your leader, guides, porters with the locals you meet on the way.

So, my opinion: BOTH THUMBS UP FOR HIMAL AND HIS TEAM ! 100% trustworthy for everyone!

I have been trekking with Himal on November 2008, to the base camp (Everest). I had a wonderful time, first of all because the trek and the views are totally amazing but also because Himal have done a wonderful job.

He is a very professional guide, dynamic, always smiling and trying to make the best for you.

Himal knows very well what he is doing and what he is talking about. You can trust him without any Hesitation.

Last February we went on a 12 day long trekking with Himal to the Annapurna Base Camp. It was very nice! Every morning we felt like home because the took good care of us. Let us explain one thing: we are from the Netherlands and this country is below sealevel! Trekking therefore is sometimes quite a challenge! Luckely Himal and his crew were always possitive about our results of the day and they always helped us through the tough parts.

We would like to recommend Himal to all of you for all your trekkings and other expeditions in Nepal. Himal is a very kind and truthworthy man that will never abondon you in the wilderness.

Greetings from Femke, Jolien and Marije from the Netherlands.

I’ve done two trips with Himal. The first trip was the Everest Base Camp trek during March, 2004. The second trip was in March, 2009 when we attempted the Annapurna circuit. Both were excellent trips. There’s no better way to travel than with Himal. His organization skills and attention to detail, not to mention the first class service is second to none. In Nepal, this is critical, since you don’t want to waste precious vacation time. Himal is always in complete control. You don’t have to even think about logistics. After Himal meets you at the airport, the hard part is done. You can relax; you’re in good hands with Himal. I’m already thinking about my next trip with Himal.

I have been visiting Nepal in the past 25 years and since 1999 Himal has been my guide and tutor for the Himalayas. We have made over 15 treks and travels together. Wether on my own or with a group of hikers: these treks and travels were in the hands of the excellent, caring and responsible organisation of Himal. His professional and organizational skills make a trek in Nepal a real experience of the Himalaya: Himal has taught me to understand more of the people and culture in Nepal, he is also an excellent intermediary who surprises time and again in his ability to connect with his clients and local communities.
