Namaste...

:: Personal service ::
If you have any questions before or after you book your trip then please contact Rabi Adhikari who is the owner and founder of Namaste Adventure. He has visited all the locations included in our program of treks and will give you knowledgeable and friendly advice.

We encourage anyone who is interested in a trek to get in touch to discuss their requirements and expectations. This will allow us to make suggestions on how to get the best from your time in Nepal. We understand that it is often difficult to discuss plans during working hours so do not hesitate to contact us at any time.

We encourage you to question us freely about any aspect of your trip and we will provide honest and knowledgeable advice in return. We believe it is important that you have realistic expectations of our services, for example what is included in the cost of your holiday and any extra expenses you might incur.

:: Small groups and trek leaders ::
We use local leaders on the treks whose responsibilities are to ensure you have an enjoyable, safe and interesting experience. They can share their knowledge of the area visited and you will be more likely to meet locals along the way!

The minimum size for the majority of our treks is two members, with no additional small group surcharge, and the maximum is twenty. We prefer to have smaller groups because this puts less pressure on the environment and so that we can provide a more personal service to our customers.

:: Safety ::
On every trip our top priority is the safety and security of both our customers and trek staff. This begins at the planning stage from designing a well thought out itinerary to explaining in detail to our customers what to expect on each trip and any necessary preparations required.

All our guides are well trained and highly experienced in leading groups in the Himalayas, and in the rare case of an incident occurring on the trek they can organise a rapid medical evacuation. For our remote treks, where the nearest village might be a long walk, we will have a satellite phone for communication.

On some treks we provide 2 way radios to enable the guide to keep in contact with others walking at a different pace, this prevents the need for the whole party to walk in one large group.

All our treks are good value for money- we provide an excellent service at competitive prices. We do not compromise on the quality of any aspect of the trip and always ensure our local staff are paid a fair wage.

:: Responsible tourism ::
We are dedicated to responsible tourism with the aim that future travellers will see the destinations in a similar or better state than we have been able to.

One of our main criteria for selecting local partners and staff has been their approach in this area, in this way the positive effects of tourism are enforced and the local economy will develop in a sustainable manner.

Low volume and low impact travelling is one of the most effective ways of preserving the fragile areas we visit and provides more opportunities for contact with locals and for cultural exchange.

We encourage clients to consider offsetting the environmental effects of international travel by contributing to Climate Care.

:: Financial protection ::
We operate a trust account for all customers monies paid to The Namaste Adventure to ensure it is protected and is only released on completion of the holiday.

:: Custom itinerary ::
If you would like to personalise your holiday we can work out a trek to suit your precise requirements, let us know what you want to do and we will be delighted to prepare a personalised itinerary- just get in touch with us!
