Connecting Travelers with the Himalayas Since 2010

Touch The Himalaya was founded in 2010 with a simple vision: to connect travelers with authentic Himalayan experiences through local expertise, responsible tourism, and personalized service.

What began as a small trekking company in Kathmandu has grown into a trusted adventure travel operator, welcoming thousands of travelers from around the world to explore Nepal, Tibet, and Bhutan. Over the years, we have built our reputation on genuine hospitality, experienced local teams, and a commitment to creating meaningful journeys beyond the ordinary tourist trail.

Our founder, Madan Neupane, began his career as a trekking guide and spent years leading travelers through the Himalayas. His passion for the mountains, local cultures, and sustainable tourism became the foundation of Touch The Himalaya. Today, he remains personally involved in trip planning and operations, ensuring that every journey reflects the same care, professionalism, and attention to detail that have defined the company since its beginning.

With more than 15 years of operating experience and thousands of successful trips organized, Touch The Himalaya has become a trusted name for trekking, cultural tours, pilgrimage journeys, and adventure travel throughout the Himalayan region. From the iconic trails of Everest and Annapurna to the remote valleys of Manaslu, from the ancient monasteries of Tibet to the cultural treasures of Bhutan, our team is dedicated to delivering authentic and unforgettable experiences.

As our expertise has grown, we have expanded through a family of specialized travel brands designed to provide deeper regional knowledge and dedicated services. These include Manaslu Guides Nepal, our specialist platform for Manaslu Region trekking and local guide services, along with upcoming destination-focused brands dedicated to Nepal tours, Tibet journeys, and Bhutan experiences.

While each brand serves a specific travel niche, they all share the same foundation, values, and operational support of Touch The Himalaya. Together, we remain committed to responsible tourism, local employment, cultural preservation, and exceptional customer service.

For us, travel is more than reaching a destination. It is about connecting with people, cultures, landscapes, and stories that leave a lasting impression long after the journey ends.
