Devaraj D.
Namaste! I'm Devaraj Dhakal, a licensed and experienced trekking guide from Nepal with a passion for sharing the wonders of the Himalayas. I was born in Baseri, Dhading District, nestled between the Ganesh Himal and Manaslu regions—two of Nepal’s most breathtaking trekking areas. Since 2002, I’ve dedicated my life to guiding and organizing treks, tours, and mountaineering expeditions across Nepal, Bhutan, Tibet, and India. With over 25 years of experience, I’ve led countless adventurers through iconic routes like Everest Base Camp, Annapurna Circuit, Langtang Valley, Upper Mustang, Manaslu Circuit, Kanchenjunga, and Dhaulagiri. I also specialize in peak climbing expeditions below 7,000 meters—such as Island Peak, Mera Peak, Lobuche East, and Chulu peaks. I am the Managing Director of a trekking and tour company based in Kathmandu, where I also run a hotel in Thamel, Nepal’s vibrant tourist hub. My love for travel and cultural exchange has taken me across Europe to countries like Portugal, Germany, Spain, France, Italy, Greece, Holland, and Switzerland, enriching my global perspective. Whether you're planning your first Himalayan trek or a return journey to Nepal, I am here to ensure your adventure is safe, authentic, and unforgettable.

“More Than a Guide — A Truly Kind and Reliable Friend”
Sobit was an excellent guide. He was always available and helped us throughout the trip. The day before our trip started, Sorbit had an urgent matter to attend to, so he arranged for his friend to take care of us instead. His friend was also very kind, recommended great places to visit, and assisted us the whole time. On the last day, after finishing his business, Sorbit still came to meet us, check on us, and even took us to the airport. He also brought a small gift from Nepal, which was a very thoughtful gesture. We were truly impressed with his service and kindness. I highly recommend Sorbit to anyone looking for a guide in Nepal.
