The
Explore Nepal
description:
established
in 1993 The Explore Nepal is a genuine ecotourism organization
operating culture tours, trekking, rafting, canoeing, bird watching,
wild life Safaris, spiritual and well being activities. We have also
designed special tours in Tibet,
Bhutan, Sikkim & Darjeeling.
emphasis
on quality-
the Explore Nepal is the leading up-market ecotourism operator in
Nepal
and offering quality holidays. Without being luxury, our own
properties provide you with comfort and the true Nepali character.
In the cities, we use the best available hotels, chosen for their
character, convenience and general quality. On the field, in places
where there aren't any hotels, we generally sleep in tents or
special lodges which are a part of the experience! We also use
private transport, provide excellent equipment and well trained
staff. In all our tours, we try and maximize the use of local
products and employ local people. In the trekking routes, we take
back all the generated waste back to
Kathmandu
for proper disposal.
tailor
made tours
- in
addition to our suggested standard tours, we provide tailor made
tours in order to better match your own individual taste and
desires. We indeed can arrange special itineraries according to your
budget, length of stay in the region, or special requirements.
group
size - all
our groups are small, with minimum and maximum group sizes. The
maximum size varies from 2 to 15. We feel that small groups provide
a better experience, and are also essential to preserve the
integrity of the places that we visit.
our
staff - besides
being very experienced, all our staff is also very sensitive to the
environmental conservation and invests their own time in our various
campaigns. But above all, they are very friendly, know the country
very well and will show you the true
Nepal
. We have experienced culture guides who have been working for more
than 20 years. The Explore Nepal is a pioneer in bird-watching in
Nepal
and hence, our wildlife and birding specialists are the first
wildlife guides to work in this area.
responsible
tourism policy
- since
the beginning, The Explore Nepal Group has tried, both with in its
properties as well as outside in the Nepali society, to minimize its environmental, social and cultural impacts,
and maximize its economical benefits to people and local communities.

Explore Nepal ever since its inception has been active in
environmental and cultural preservation in
Nepal
and run various successful campaigns
