With consumers looking for their future travel experiences to be more off the beaten track, more meaningful, transformational and with more wellness and sustainability built in, we are thrilled to be able to introduce our new partner to you - Responsible Adventures Nepal owned by Raj Tamang.

Raj Tamang - Pioneer of Wellness & Culinary Trekking in Nepal

PIONEER OF WELLNESS AND CULINARY TREKKING

Raj was born in Singapore to Nepalese parents and spent his childhood there. His father was with the Singapore Police Gurkhas, and upon his retirement in 1988, the family returned to their native land of Nepal. Raj has been leading treks/tours and adventure holidays ever since his return to Nepal in 1988. Raj specializes in treks, cultural, wellness and wildlife experiences across Nepal. He is multilingual and speaks fluent Nepali, English, Hindi, Bahasa Malaysia, Bahasa Indonesia, Hokkien (a Chinese Dialect), and Thai. Raj is highly ethical and works hard to ensure that his tours are not only sustainable but actively support and improve the lives of the people and communities where he operates. He works hard to promote diversity, equity and inclusion in his company. You can read more about Raj HERE.

"I started Responsible Adventures as I saw the potential to provide upgraded services and more unique itineraries to clients with memorable and unique experiences and step away from the "Cookie Cutter" packages." - Raj Tamang

WELLNESS & CULINARY TREKKING

Raj has pioneered "Wellness Trekking" and "Culinary Trekking." We all know that trekking is a healthy activity that helps to detoxify the body whilst also nourishing the soul and Responsible Adventures Nepal enhances the experience still further by taking their own trained chefs who prepare superfood meals, provide alkaline water and other special touches such as yoga and massages along the way to improve the energy and health of guests and encourage a more transformative experience. For guests who still love a few "treats" of course, there is freshly ground coffee and wine!

Raj and his team of chefs can also provide vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free meals for guests. They have non-dairy milk options and other special diets can be accommodated with advance notice. Ayurvedic drinks are provided to help boost energy and freshly ground coffee is often a welcome way to start the day which makes other trekkers on the mountains most jealous!

OFF THE BEATEN TRACK, FAMILY TREKS & HELICOPTER ADVENTURES

Responsible Adventures Nepal also prides itself on designing and operating treks that take guests off the overcrowded routes taken by others and into remote communities to meet the real people of Nepal and help to protect these communities and cultures as well as provide them with some additional income. This mode of trekking takes your clients to non-touristic villages where they will experience unfortunately fading cultures but simultaneously experience true, "pristine" traditions and be able to play their part in keeping these traditions and cultures alive. Raj's treks that involve camping provide the best, most comfortable equipment and include extras such as a toilet tent, shower tent and even heaters for the dining tents. Responsible Adventures Nepal believes deeply in designing inclusive treks and has designed a number of easier treks for families and people who don't want anything too strenuous.

"Our pioneering concept of mobile Glamping treks gives high value and low impact to the people and environment we bring you to. This form of Sustainable tourism is no longer a luxury but an absolute necessity." - Raj Tamang

Helicopter Expeditions in Nepal with Responsible Adventures.

For your VIP and luxury guests, Raj works with the best helicopter companies in Nepal to offer stunning day trips to Everest and other peaks by helicopter as well as a unique 3 Day Helicopter Adventure to witness and explore eight of Nepal's monster summits of over 8,000 metres. To help protect the environment we counteract the emissions of these helicopter trips with different Carbon offsetting and sequestration methods.

SUSTAINABILITY & ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

Responsible Adventures is an environmentally sensitive trekking organization designed to improve, protect, and preserve the Himalayan mountain ranges’ environment. They are leaders in the organization of ecological mountain treks. All Responsible Adventures employees have many years of trekking and mountaineering experience and actively promote the protection and ecological use of the Himalayas’ fragile environment. The Himalayas is of course home to most of the team, and they wish to share its natural beauty and culture with trekkers and other guests. Responsible Adventures Nepal strives to instil respect for these sacred mountain ranges while preserving their historic surroundings, people, and culture. They feel strongly that all their holidays should benefit the local communities and protect the environment by minimizing pollution and respecting local traditions, religion, and heritage. They tread lightly – low volume, low impact trekking/touring is the best way of preserving the beautiful and fragile places we visit. Read their Responsible Tourism Policy.
