Jungle Safari

Jungle at its best © Carsten Heinze

Whilst being most famous for mountains, the Himalayan region possesses some wild, jungly, low lands that are home to the royal Bengal tiger, Asiatic elephants, one-horned rhinoceros and many species of birds. Chitwan National Park in Nepal, alone, has recorded more than 500 species of birds! And remote Bardia National Park is for those looking for a unique, off-beat jungle adventure.

Life in the low lands looks very different to other parts of the Himalayas so not only do you have the jungle to explore (with your expert nature guide), the beautiful villages are fascinating and feel a world away from the mountains.

We had the most amazing honeymoon, thanks to Himalayan Trails. Amanda was so helpful in the months leading up to the trip and organised a trek in Langtang Valley and then some days in Sarangkot. When we arrived in Nepal we were looked after every step of the way. Thank you to Amanda, Raj, Suman, Prokas and everyone else involved. You really made our trip memorable. We will be back!

Through the Kimkim platform, Himalayan Trails (HT) planned and coordinated a 2 week trip from Beijing to Kathmandu for my US based daughter and I. Having traveled extensively to more than 40+ countries, we had a very positive experience working with HT. Key reasons: - timely and thorough communication before, during, and after the trip - experienced staff that were nuanced in their understanding of important details - demonstrated flexibility in modifying the schedule to accommodate personal preferences - effective use of local guides/resources that are very personable and knowledgeable of the location and key attractions - the entire team is focused on ensuring client satisfaction I highly endorse HT's services, even for the most discriminating clients.

WOW… just, WOW!!! My experience trekking the Manaslu Circuit in May 2025 with Himalayan Trails (HT) was above & beyond a 5-star experience. From the pre-trek on-line communication with Grishma who helped to tailor my trek so that I was able to visit and stay at out of the way monasteries, to the exquisite guidance, support and comraderie I experienced with Mingma Sherpa (25+ yrs of guiding and trekking in the Himalayas) & Nuru Sherpa (porter with a heart of pure gold) — my 17 day trek was an experience, a pilgrimage really, that went beyond what I could’ve dared dream it might be! I felt expertly guided, informed, cared for and supported throughout the entire process (pre & post trek included). I also feel that it’s important to work with a trekking outfit that cares for and pays it’s guides and porters well & responsibly — Lonely Planet lists HT as just such a company and it is clear to me that they live up to that endorsement. I plan on making many future treks in Nepal — Mustang, Tsum & others — and I will most definitely continue to work with the Himalayan Trails team. I couldn’t recommend them more strongly!
