An Outstanding Kailash Yatra Experience – Highly Recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently completed my Mount Kailash Yatra with Kailash Journeys Pvt Ltd, and my overall experience was truly exceptional—far better than I had imagined. From the initial planning stages through to the completion of the Kailash Parikrama, the entire journey was managed professionally, efficiently, and with genuine care. Even before the trip, the team was excellent with communication. Every question was answered promptly, clearly, and honestly. The information provided beforehand was accurate, and throughout the journey, almost everything was delivered exactly as promised in their itinerary and catalogue. Our stay at Hotel Tibet in Kathmandu was excellent. The hotel was extremely clean and comfortable, the food was of very good quality, and breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all provided as promised. The Kathmandu sightseeing and temple visits were also very well organised. In particular, the Rudra Abhishek prayers at Pashupatinath Temple were a wonderful and memorable experience. From Kathmandu onwards towards Mount Kailash, the arrangements continued to be impressive. We travelled in very comfortable buses, and at each destination the team arranged the best accommodation that was reasonably available in those remote locations. A special mention must go to the kitchen team. Throughout the journey, they provided three freshly prepared meals every day. The food was hot, tasty, wholesome Indian vegetarian food—something we greatly appreciated, especially considering the challenging locations and conditions in which they were working. The ground staff were equally impressive. Our luggage was handled extremely well throughout the trip, with everything transported safely and delivered to our hotel rooms. Nothing went missing, and the team worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make the journey as comfortable as possible for us. The guides in China, particularly Diki, were extremely efficient. They managed permits, immigration formalities, local coordination, porters, and all the other logistical requirements very smoothly. We were also given timely and clear guidance before every important stage of the journey, which was particularly valuable during the three critical days of the Kailash Parikrama. A very special shout-out and heartfelt thanks to Sujan, Parbatsingh, and Diki for all their help, encouragement, guidance, and support throughout the journey. Completing the Kailash Parikrama is physically and mentally demanding, and I genuinely feel that I would not have been able to complete it without the support of the entire Kailash Journeys team. Their organisation, experience, patience, and constant assistance made an enormous difference. My experience was far more amazing than I had visualised before starting the journey. I returned with wonderful memories and immense gratitude to everyone who helped make this pilgrimage possible. If I ever undertake the Kailash Yatra again, I would 100% choose Kailash Journeys Pvt Ltd without any doubt or hesitation. Highly recommended to anyone considering the Mount Kailash Yatra. A truly five-star experience from beginning to end. If anyone is considering this journey and would like to hear more about my personal experience, I would be very happy to share further details. You are welcome to connect with me by asking Sujan or Kalyan from Kailash Journeys for my contact WhatsApp number.

Kailash Yatra July 2026 I had an amazing time with the group tour to Mt Kailash and lake Mansorova! The tour operators were on the ball from the time of my first enquiry assisting me with necessary visas needed as well as extra days at the hotel! The actual tour was 17 days and everything was something different! The bus ride through Nepal and into Tibet was a great experience since the route was to the lush forests and majority of the way was on gravel roads except in Tibet ! The surroundings during the travel was tranquil and the flowing rivers and waterfalls were something else . The costs were within reason and all other expenses were affordable. Gaining entry at the border gates in China was a breeze since the guides from China and Nepal were well prepared and fully acquainted with the rules etc . The guides were professional and coped well with the large group . The Kailash Yatra is best suited for people of average fitness, strong religious believes and who are opened minded. Me being a solo traveller fitted in well with the other travellers and into doing have made friends for a life time with people from different countries. Thanks to Kailash Journeys for making this and excellent trip and I most certainly will contact them again should I need to visit Nepal again ! I certainly recommend this company and thank the hard working working staff member 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Best Tour Operator For Kailash Mansarovar Yatra Excellent service from Kailash Journey! They handled our booking professionally and communicated clearly throughout the process. When our travel plans changed, they returned our passports promptly and processed our full refund without any hassle. Their honesty, transparency, and customer-first approach were truly appreciated. I highly recommend Kailash Journey to anyone planning a Kailash Yatra.

Kailash Journeys helped me with my Yatra of a lifetime! I consider myself fortunate to have come across their website while searching for an operator, as it was purely by chance among the myriad options available, especially given their negligible presence on social media. I was pleasantly surprised to learn from fellow yatris of other operators that even after the AKTON price hike, Kailash Journeys continued to offer one of the most affordable Kailash packages for Indian citizens. And it was not as though they were cutting corners. They arranged the best possible accommodations wherever available, and had a dedicated team of cooks who provided us with fresh, clean, and nutritious vegetarian meals every day, even in the harsh climate of Tibet. Whether it was accommodation or diet, Kailash Journeys took care of every aspect of the yatra. Kailash Journeys has been operating Kailash tours for over 30 years, and their team members truly embody the reason for this continued success through their work. Even before the yatra began, Rinkesh ji was always available to address my queries over the phone, while Kalyan ji consistently gave timely responses to my emails and even helped me with Chinese currency, which proved vital when arranging a rescue vehicle for my mother. Once the yatra began, there was Ramesh bhai, whose remarkable patience stood out as he handled yatris from all walks of life. He was instrumental in arranging comfortable accommodation for everyone in the group as we reached the remote locations of Tibet. Parbat ji and his team of sherpas formed the backbone for most yatris, carrying duffle bags from one place to another and even up to their room doors. Some sherpas joined as personal porters during the parikrama, including Parbat ji himself. Then there was our tour lead, Raj Kumar Adhikari ji. God knows what magic he worked with the Tibet authorities, for they allowed our group to complete the full parikrama when we were not even sure of receiving a permit for a single day. This was no easy task, for we had seen groups from many other operators who were travelling on the same schedule as us until Darchen, yet during the three‑day parikrama we came across only a handful of them. That highlighted the effort and determination shown by Adhikari ji. To say that these men were pivotal in the successful completion of our yatra would be an understatement. Kailash Journeys’ tour management also deserves recognition. Anticipating a huge crowd at the border, they modified the itinerary and shifted the Kathmandu sightseeing to the last, giving us a head start at immigration. When the group was stopped at Kerung for an extra day, they chose to skip the halt there on our return to keep the schedule intact. This buffer later proved invaluable when we were held up in Darchen without a permit for the parikrama. The delay also meant the buffer day was used to visit Ashtapad in Darchen, leaving no time for Kathmandu sightseeing, since the tour was set to end on the morning of June 12. By divine luck, my direct flight from Kathmandu to Bangalore was on Saturday, June 13, which allowed me to spend the 12th exploring Kathmandu. We thought we might have to pay for the extra night’s accommodation, but since the tour itself had been delayed by a day, Kalyan ji graciously extended our stay in Kathmandu at no extra cost. It is because of these small gestures of care that, if given a choice, I would once again, without hesitation, pick Kailash Journeys as my tour operator for this sacred Yatra. [Yatra dates: May 31 to June 12 2026]

The majestic Kailash and finding Shiva The best arrangements with professional team of Kailash Journey and best rates I completed Kailash Mansarovar Yatra in 17th June batch with my friend Amit Testimonials 1. Booking - The team of Shivendra and Rinkesh handled all the queries. They never focused on getting payment but serving first with all ease in necessary chinese group visa application 2. Logistics - on airport arrival and departure support from Kalyan at Kathmandu was best. The company's vehicles were SUVs . Chinese side buses were good Suggestion - The nepal buses need to be spacious. Those were congested 3. Guide and porter- Our guide Khularam was fantastic with our loved Aila in aid. They were ever ready to help us and no issues at all . Our chinese guide Tashi was also wonderful and proactive in getting parikrama permits in advance. 4. Hotels - All best. We were in Hotel Tibet in Kathmandu near Thamel and Radisson and hotels at Keyrung, Saga, Darchen were all good. The hotel on Timure border had best river valley view and homestay near Manas Sarovar had best basic facilities. Even at Derapuk dormitory stays and at Zutulpuk the only big hotels were of gold standards when we see the lack of hotels there 5. Food- Amazing cook, good healthy food throughout. They were giving us variety every day and as published on web site Thanks the entire team for making my Yatra special. Loved it. I definitely recommend to every one to go with Kailash Journey Suggestion - please keep the additional acclamatization day at Saga with short trek nearby. It helped us all. We can return in 2 days after parikrama to Kathmandu

5 Star · April 16, 2015 · First of all I would like to thank Mr. Santosh who helped me with the booking and answered all my questions about the trip. My husband and I enjoyed our time in Kathmandu and Pokhara. We really liked our driver. He took us to a manual cable car which connected a hill and the main street, and encouraged us to try it. It was awesome! We felt both scared and excited! He also made us get the cable car to Manakamana Temple fast! Our driver was also knowledgeable about the places we visited, no need a tourist guide. Thank you!

5 Star · December 3, 2014 · Excellent service by Kailash. Will try and provide a review as detail as I can. Hopefully this will benefit others.Our trip was a family trip of 6 adults and 2 children, aged 8 and 10. Travel period : 15/11/2014 to 23/11/2014. The ground budget package was for 9 days and 8 nights, Kathmandu for 2 days, Nagarkot for 1 night, Pokhara for 3 days and 2 days in Chitwan.Despite the long bumpy and rough journey on the winding roads, it turned out to be a great, fun and memorable family trip. Firstly, all our listless queries were answered clearly and promptly by Kailash before our arrival. The driver Mr Mohan is friendly man and has made us feel at ease at all times. As we are Muslims, our needs to offer our prayers and eat halal food were all taken into account. Here are the lists of budget hotels that we stayed (arranged by Kailash) and a bit of review for each: 1. Thamel Hotel Kathmandu: Friendly hotel staffs, accessible within walking distance to do souvenir shopping. Walking distance to many restaurants including 2 halal restaurants (al Medina and al Mekka restaurants). The only downside is that the hotel room is comparatively small to other hotels we went. 2. Peaceful Cottage Nagarkot: Lovely, spacious and unique rooms with breathless mountain scenery. The rooms are too beautiful to be classified as a budget hotel. The hotel staffs are very friendly and helpful. Only that, I found it very cold at night, without heating system in the rooms. The staffs did provide us with few hot water bottles. There was hot water supply at all hotels we went. 3. Hotel Asia Pokhara: Rooms are clean and spacious. Again, helpful and friendly hotel staffs. Honestly, we really think that in general, all the Nepalese are nice, friendly and very humble people. The hotel is above satisfactory level despite being a budget hotel. Also, from the rooftop, we were able to enjoy the mountain view of Annapurna Himalayan range. It would have been clearer if the weather was not misty. 4. Rhino Lodge Chitwan: We absolutely loved this place!! Must go there if u were to travel to Chitwan! We did not expect to have so much fun there. That’s all we can say about Rhino Lodge. They catered to our halal meals at the hotel itself, throughout our stay. Loved their Masala tea! The activities arranged by the hotel staffs which came as a package were superb! Village sightseeing, canoeing along misty river in early morning, jungle safari walk, bathing with the elephants, elephant ride in the jungle and river crossing for nearly 1 and a half hour probably longer, traditional dance…. All left us with wonderful memories! Other extra activities arranged by Kailash: 1. Paragliding with Sunrise Company and Phoenix Company. Both companies are equally good. Most of their paragliding pilots and instructors are from European countries. Few of them are Nepalese, able to speak very good English. They explained everything professionally and we were very satisfied! Even my 2 children enjoyed this experience. 2. Mountain flights with Simrik Airlines. Thank goodness we took this flight. Initially we were all frustrated with the weather in Pokhara and Nagarkot for not being able to fully enjoy the white mountain sceneries. We read few reviews in the internet saying that some people were not able to see clearly during their mountain flights and would like their money refund. Ours were different. We saw vividly from a near distance the surfaces and the peaks of Himalayan mountains. 3. Trekking up a hill (height 1150m from sea level), above is Peace Stupa/ Buddha Stupha. Not a single regret going up this hill, meeting the villagers and children up and down the hill, seeing their different ways of lives, and the view of the lakes, mountains etc up there wowww… like the ones we saw in the magazines and posters! Would suggest Kailash to add another activity like photograph session while wearing traditional Nepalese costumes during the trip. This, we arranged ourselves. Thank you very much Kailash for making our trip to Nepal such a memorable one, adventurous and full of emotions! Recommended Kailash to everyone as the package price is reasonable and cheaper than other travel companies we enquired. Worth it! My husband, brother in law and uncle hope to return to Nepal for the Annapurna base camp trekking with Kailash.

5 Star · “It was the most enchanting 10 days and I am so glad to have engaged Kailash Journeys for our holiday in Nepal. From the beginning, Kailash has been very efficient in answering all our enquiries and providing us with all the necessary information prior to our trip….On the day of our arrival, we were picked up promptly at the airport and everything from then on was nothing less than stellar. All our check ins and check outs at the various hotels were seamless and we never had any administration hiccups. Our tour officer Mr Rajkumar Kurung was always checking up on us through phone calls and messages to make sure that we were doing good. He met us the day after our arrival in Kathmandu and on our last day before we departed home to make sure everything was okay and that we had a pleasant time. Customer relations as such is truly commendable. Nepal has been a hugely humbling experience… Nepal has so much heart and hope. I am so thankful to have had this life changing experience. Thank you so much to Kailash Journeys for making this trip a truly memorable one for my sister and I. I wish Kailash Journeys the best and may the company reach greater heights! -Badrun Nisa, Singapore

Rajiv was extremely prompt in getting back with his emails and charted out our Itineary as per our specifications. We were especially pleased with our contact person Raj Kumar who would keep in touch with us from Kathamndu every morning even while we were away in Jomson or other places. Very helpful in rearranging our schedules due to changes in Itineary caused by the weather in Jomsom. A big thanks and appreciation to our driver Lakshman who navigated the steep roads and the traffic with ease. Would definitely recommend Kailash Journeys to others and hope to see you all again.”

May 29, 2014 · We had a fantastic Kailash Mansarovar yatra with Kailash Journeys between 9th May 2014 and 21st May 2014. Given the limited infrastructure in Tibet, arrangement by Kailash Journeys was very good. Lambabu and Kancha, the leader and the staff member were excellent. Entire team took good care of us during the journey. Stay at Manas on full moon night and visit to Kailash north face to see Golden Kailash from Derapuk were most memorable.

Rajiv was very helpful and most accommodating as he helped us create a trip that was absolutely perfect and tailored to suit exactly what we wanted. Our driver Manos was wonderful. We never had a moment where we didn’t feel completely safe throughout our trip. Yagya was our guide and is so knowledgeable about all things Nepal. We gained a new friend and learned so much about your beautiful country and culture. We can’t thank you all enough for helping to make our visit to Nepal so incredible. I loved it so much that I decided I cannot wait two years to come back. I’m just about to put an email together to Rajiv for my next visit to Nepal in September.”
