About Upendra

Write a review
Traveling has been my passion for a long time and I have always loved exploring new places. I have visited several places in my home country, Nepal, and over 30 other countries! Adventure is another of my passions, and in following this I have gone skydiving, scuba diving, and paragliding in many different countries. I was an adventure tour guide myself for a couple of years, and during that period, I was able to explore the spectacular Himalayas of Nepal. I have a master’s degree in development studies from the largest university in Nepal, and I currently operate a tour company in Kathmandu. I love being a part of this highly-rated (and loved by our customers) adventure tour operator! As a tour operator, I work to produce perfect tour programs for our customers worldwide. I love designing new holiday itineraries and suggesting them to customers according to their needs, interests and preferences.

Upendra's Expertise

As a local, an adventure-lover, and an experienced adventure tour guide, I have extensive knowledge and experience of the Himalayas and the world-famous trekking routes that trail through these mountains in my home country. Whether you are an adventure-seeker looking for trekking, high-altitude passes, or mountaineering, I can help travelers plan a holiday in these beautiful Himalayas. Anyone looking to spend a quality holiday in the trans-Himalayan region of Nepal can contact me to plan a memorable holiday.

Upendra's Best Travel Experience

As I grew up in a landlocked country, getting my PADI-certified scuba diving license in Sri Lanka was an unusual and unforgettable experience. I originally went to Sri Lanka for a relaxed beach holiday, but things changed once I reached Hikkaduwa (a charming city in the country). I decided I wanted to experience the adventure of “going underwater”, and I ended up going home as a PADI-certified scuba diver! It was a beautiful, unforgettable experience to travel beneath the water and experience the beauty of nature. Life gives you chances to explore so go for it!

Why is Upendra the right travel expert

I have lots of experience planning and designing holidays for travellers. I have worked with over two-thousand travellers from every corner of the world and have helped them to create the personalised itineraries that they are looking for. As a local and experienced guide and operator, I also have lots of knowledge about travelling inside Nepal. But most importantly of all, I love what I do: I love helping people to arrange a memorable holiday. I love talking to people. I love sharing my knowledge and I love learning from others.
