Hello everyone, Namaste. Myself Badri Aryal, born and grown up in villages & Himalayas of Nepal.
I have been working in the tourism and hospitality industry in Nepal since 2007. I had worked as a mountain trekking porter in the beginning days. Slowly & step by step I got chance to become mountain guide & then the heritage/cultural guide.
For now I have been working with Outdoor Himalayan Treks and a freelancer guide from different companies as well.
“A+ Tour Guide”
Mr. Badri was incredible. I had booked a trek + city tours plan for my professor from Thailand. What impressed me about him was his genuine humility and care for his client. My professor who went solo trip with him was very impressed by his trekking nicety, sharing interesting facts and stories that brought the place to life. I'm sure it left a positive remark about Nepal on him. If you're looking for a top-notch tour guide who is informative, kind and personable, then Mr. Badri is your guy! Highly recommend!
