Travel Expert in Nepal Write a reviewAbout
I grew up in a rural village in the Gorkha district of Nepal, in very a remote place that did not have the accessibility of roads and vehicles. Walking miles for hours (what we call hiking these days!) was a regular part of my childhood.
After high school, I had the ambition to be a geologist. While I was pursuing my studies in geology, I went trekking in the mountains for some related research work. Here, I discovered my love for traveling.
I moved into the adventure and travel industry after getting hooked on trekking. When I started out, adventure travel was a fairly new concept in Nepalese tourism. But I persisted and my team and I began our travel company in Kathmandu. The ride was not an easy one, but our company has come a long way!

Sagar's best travel experience
I started out in the travel industry because of my incurable fascination with adventure travel. I have trekked almost all the famous (and some not-so-famous) trekking trails of Nepal, and each one of those experiences has been surreal. However, my most favorite travel experience was a trekking trip to Mt. Kailash. The trail we took via Simikot went through the most remote western parts of Nepal before entering Tibet. On the way, the beauty of Garuda Valley and Mansarovar Lake was magical. The memories of that trip will always stay with me.
