The tour was very good and was one of the best trips I've had. The tour team was very supportive, encouraging and always had our backs. Thank you
This Kailash Yatra was Organised by Mr.Cholendra from Nepal and this is my third trip to Nepal . All my yatras were organized by HIMALAYAN JOY ADVENTURE group.Specially this MT KAILASH TRIP as all of know its not a easy yatra to do. But our guides Tika ,Kedar ,Kumar ,Takshi,and few others from Tibet were so great souls.With devine power in them they made this tour possible for us. With gods help and with great experienced people like cholendra and group we had the most wonderful yatra.I take this opportunity to thank MY BROTHER MR NAVA and all in our group who made this yatra possible for us. Om nama sivaya. Hope to join in your many more upcoming trips . Thank you Himalayan Joy Adventure or the great Job done.
My 2nd yatra to Kailash with Himalayan Joy Adventures was nothing but spectacular. The meticulous planning by Cholendra's team from the moment we arrived in Kathmandu, right through to arranging 4x4 vehicles for ground movement, hotel bookings during the journey, preparing fresh and warm food at every stop, making sure the guides and helpers were attending to our needs, taking care of customs and immigration both in Nepal and Tibet (China), and to attend to all personal needs of the yaris were done with extra ordinary professionalism and an ever warming smile. On this occasion, Cholendra, with his counterpart Tashi in Tibet organised the side trip to walk towards the North Face of Kailash to reach within 20 meters of the Grand Mountain. It was a surreal experience that will remain etched in my body and soul and bring back spiritual moments that are beyond description. To be alone with the "father" in grand snow-covered auditorium, watching in awe the grand pillars of the cathedral that arise in front of you like the gates of the yonder world with the swelling winds humming AUM, the pranava mantra, is a mesmerising and fully absorbing experience. Thank you Cholendra for yet again making us all feel at ease in some of the most trying and challenging moments of the yatra. God bless you.
Despite being my first Kailash Yatra, what an awesome experience it was! Thanks to the amazing team by Cholendra. Together as a team, they are friendly, knowledgeable and absolutely passionate about their work. Above all, they are wholly reliable! Having had the first-hand experience of how committed the team was in giving the best possible service without compromising the comfort and the safety of our group members; these are the guys that you would want to engage with to have your backs! Regardless of what it may be, they have proven to come to one's rescue with a smile. Kudos! Can't thank you enough, yet again thank you Cholendra for the outstanding efforts and the exceptional hospitality.
Journey to Mount Kailash...my first ...a difficult one but made possible by Cholendra and his capable team. It was indeed a journey that left a deep imprint in my heart..Definitely would recommend the Himalayan Joy for anyone wanting to make a journey to Kailash. Thank u very much Cholendra and team for making it possible for me.Aum namah shivayae.
I and a group of 15 adults (men and women) of mostly aged 50 and above entrusted ourselves with Cholendra and his assistants for a 18 day Mount Kailash Yatra. With love, care, knowledge and assistance beyond their normal duties Cholendra and his team ensured all 16 of us completed the Yatra. Moments of despair among us were put to rest or resolved by Cholendra and his able and trusted team always with captivating smiles, jokes and relevant advice or suggestions. Cholendra's well chosen and friendly Tibetan guide, Tashi was likewise a bundle of energy always attending admirably to the smallest of needs. I, the oldest at 69 years had a pleasant and memorable Yatra. I would highly recommend them for their tours. Thank you Cholendra, Tika, Purna, Kedar, Buddhi, Tilanath, and Kumar. God bless you and your families
To undertake the Mt Kailash/ Mansarovar Yatra with completion of the outer Kora is a dream. My dream became a reality this June, thanks to Himalayan Joy Adventure. My initial contact with Mr. Cholendra began almost a year ago. He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful about any questions I asked. His prompt replies to my queries were very comforting. I had read and heard about this trip but nothing could have prepared me about how arduous this journey is. However, Cholendra and his team were always calm confident and went about whatever needed to be done. Coming down the Dolmala pass I felt that my legs could not possibly walk another 14 Kms. However, Cholendra along with his Tibetan counterpart Mr. Tashi scrambled to make alternative arrangements. No horses available!! However, they were able to arrange for a 4 wheel drive for me. I cannot say enough for Himalayan Joy Adventure and the entire team. They are outstanding in their commitment to the safety and comfort of travelers under their care. I am hoping to do more trips in Nepal and Bhutan with Cholendra and his team. THANK YOU Himalayan Joy Adventurer and keep up the good work.
Cholendra and Himalayan Joy Adventures (HJA) organized this spiritual journey for us (a group of 18 Malaysians) in August 2018. HJA has been organizing such trips for more than 8 years - Cholendra and his team demonstrated this experience by looking into the most minute details of the trip and ensured our group experienced an explosive spiritual journey not only throughout the kora but also the trip before and after. HJA also made sure that our safety was their utmost priority and also added service features to enhance our experience... Cholendra, Tika, Nara, Poorna, Kedar and Buddha, thank you very much for going the extra mile all the time to make sure our needs are taken care... We look forward to working with you on the 2019 Kailash kora and hopefully able to go with you on your other organized expeditions such as the Everest and Annapoorna Base Camps... Thank you! AUM NAMASHIVAYA!!!
An exceptional team! Cholendra and his team were so caring and understanding from day 1. Great food, accommodation and always on time. We were a big team of 19 people and Cholendra and his team looked after all of us with great professionalism. I recall on day 2 of the Yatra when I was struggling trekking uphill, Cholendra gave me great advise and encouragement that I finished the Yatra on time. Their knowledge of the area is superb! I would highly recommend Himalayan Joy Adventure to anyone. Cheers Avi
Cholendra, Tikka, Anpurna, Budhi & Kedar are extremely professional and passionate about their work. Very polite and accommodating people. Because of these guys we( a group of 19) were able to complete the very difficult parkrima(trekking) of Mt Kailash. At the end, we were 1 big family. Thank you Renald
SHIVOHAM Mansarovar and Kailash Yatra is only possible with his mighty’ s blessings It is a brilliant experience and the joy that money cannot buy You have to be there to know, understand why, how and what it takes to LOVE your SOUL in peace and for most to understand the nature.

The aspiration to be in Kailash was always there within, the experience was further enhanced by the hospitality rendered by the Soul's of Himalayan Joy, The managing director Cholindra & his team Tika,Purna,Nara Ramesh and their counterpart in Tibet Tashi, Tawa,Peama .........have done a remarkable job, along with the experience of Kailash the selflessness of this guys will always remain in my memory. No hesitation in recommending " Himalayan Joy Adventure" too all of you out there, get on an experience the Joy of adventure. Nathan
The call for Kailash was there in me for many years and it became possible with Himalayan Joy Adventure. The managing director, Cholindra and his team: Tika, Purna, Nara, Ramesh all of them are such a kind and helpful souls.. And on Tibet side, Brother Tashi, Peama, our bus driver Tava and their helpers, all of them are such a lovely people, I have ever met... The whole team from Nepal and Tibet made a lot of positive impact in my journey to Kailash.. Their endless help and service made me feel the divinity in each one of them... I see Lord Shiva in every one of them through their service and help...? I would strongly recommend "Himalayan Joy Adventure" to anyone planning a trip to Kailash or any other places in that region.. Visited August 2017
Our visit of 21 to Kailash is something that is going to stay with us for a very long time, thanks to "Himalayan Joy Adventure". From the time we arrived in Kathmandu, right through Lhasa to Kailash and back, Choleindra and his team made sure every single detail that was essential for this life time pilgrimage was meticulously organised. Each day, at the end of a hard trek, there was a hot lemon drink waiting and all vegetarian meals were freshly prepared to cater for the different tastes of the pilgrims, aged from twenties to sixties. Every detail was attended to and valuable advice was forthcoming before and after the trip, and even when snags were encountered, the team of guides were there with a smile reassuring the best for the pilgrims. Would recommend "Himalayan Joy Adventure" to anyone planning a trip to Kailash without reservations.
Our May 2012 Mt.Kailash-Lake Manasarovar pilgrimage, was the second we have done so far. We found the trip to be truly satisfying. All due to Cholendra -an extraordinary tour organiser and guide. Although it was an incredibly challenging trip, due to many reasons, the altitude, minimal facilities and the extreme weather conditions, Cholendra's quiet confidence, patience, encouragement and attention to details greatly assisted us in successfully completing the yatra. From obtaining the permits on time, the delicious food, the trouble-free transportation to the wonderful accommodation in Kathmandu, no one could have done it better. Thank you Cholendra and the staff of Himalayan Joy for the constant support and care provided especially during the very trying moments of the pilgrimage and for making this trip a meaningful and memorable one. Our next yatra will definitely be with you!Our May 2012 Mt.Kailash-Lake Manasarovar pilgrimage, was the second we have done so far. We found the trip to be truly satisfying.
