Beyul, Eastern Nepal
As a Beyul, we are in the heart of a spiritual power place. It is believed that just the energy from being there is enough to make you reflect and take that journey towards self-awakening. Several important Tibetan monasteries are found in the region including Thupten Choeling monastery. Thupten Choteling was once the largest monastery and the largest Tibetan resettlement camp in Nepal. Chiwong Monastery perched on a rock cliff, is a perfect sanctuary for a day visit or several nights retreat. The monastery in Junbesi, regarded as the oldest Sherpa monastery in Nepal built circa. 1536, has been fully reconstructed after a major Earthquake in 1934. The walks here will be led by our spiritual guide and Buddhist scholar, touching on the various practices of Buddhism including meditation and yoga

Beyul Camps
Located in different spots of the lower Solu Khumbu, the region brings us back to the Nepal many fell in love with decades ago, a realm of jaw-dropping Himalayan scenery, mountaineering lore, Sherpa traditions, and very few other travelers. By day we amble through lush valleys and rhododendron forests, passing alpine villages, monasteries, terraced fields, tumbling waterfalls, sacred mani walls, and jaw-dropping Himalayan views, and at night we bed down in well-equipped camps set up under the stars. With clear skies, our efforts culminate in a sunrise view gazing out at some of the world’s highest mountains.

The name ‘Happy House’ was unofficially bestowed upon by Sir Edmund Hillary, describing it as his happy house. Several excursions can be organized from here on a daily basis.

Lo-Manthang, Upper Mustang
The Upper Mustang area of Nepal, in the rain shadow of the Himalayas, is considered to be home to one of the best-preserved Tibetan Buddhist cultures in the world. It was closed to foreigners until 1992, and it’s still necessary to purchase an expensive 10-day permit to get there. The old walled city of Lo Manthang, the capital of Upper Mustang, is at an altitude of 12,600 feet. Within the walls are a dense labyrinth of whitewashed mud and brick buildings, a couple of ancient monasteries, and the five-story 15th-century King’s Palace. Dusk is a good time to visit the walled city, as the locals walk around town in a clockwise direction, spinning the prayer wheels that line the streets. Nearby ancient meditation caves and Buddhist monasteries can be explored on foot, horsebacks, 4X4s, or mountain bikes.

Helicopter Trekking
Probably the most technologically advanced form of trekking, heli trek offers us to live the excitement and feeling of being very close to the top of the world while not going through the physically challenging experience of walking and climbing there. Using the most high tech mountain helicopters, we will be flying very close to some of the major peaks in the Everest region including Lhotse, Makalu and Cho Oyu, all part of the eight-thousand meters peak mountainscape.
With the helicopter we will also have the opportunity to set foot at Everest Base Camp (5,364 meters) and have breakfast at 4,200 meters with a 180-degree view of the great peaks of the Himalayas.

Far-West Nepal
This nomadic region is primarily known for being horse herders & yak traders working the high Himalayas, but deep in the region that lines the Tibetan border, one can find the culture and traditions in a relatively pure form. Bon, a religion predating Buddhism, is still very much alive here in its modern form and Shamanism centering its beliefs and rituals on a person with access to the spirit world, have somewhat blended with Buddhism and Hinduism in this far removed corner, creating a sort of harmonized religious eco-system.
Though the Nomads here are relatively used to outsiders by now, part of the draw of visiting them is to see a unique society that does not exist for the sake of tourism. Of course, as more tourists seek out this 'authentic' experience, there is a chance that the authenticity is threatened by exposure and exploitation. This isn't to say that they don't want visitors – many believe tourism is an important economic engine that allows them to maintain their traditional ways. But they do ask visitors to come with care and respect.

Kathmandu
Kathmandu has long been regarded as one of the far corners of the world. Rudyard Kipling captured its mystique when he wrote, “the wildest dreams of Kew are the facts of Kathmandu.” For centuries Kathmandu was forbidden to outsiders. But since opening its doors to the world in the early 1950s, it has become one of travel’s most desired destinations. Now, Kathmandu is a large, bustling, madly colorful city, a fascinating juxtaposition of the medieval and modern that faces the common challenges of modern urban centers: fast-growing population and increased pollution.
