About Us
The story behind Nepal's most trusted trekking company
Our Story
Born in the Mountains, Built on Trust
Your Trekking Guide was founded in 2009 by Tashi Sherpa, born and raised in the High Himalayas. After decades of guiding hundreds of trekkers and climbing major peaks, Tashi realized that the trekking industry needed a company that truly put safety, authenticity, and community first.
What started as a one-person operation in a small Thamel office has grown into a team of dedicated professionals — guides, porters, operations staff, and cultural specialists — all united by a shared love for the mountains and a commitment to excellence.
Over 15 years, we have led more than 2,500 treks and welcomed 10,000 adventurers from around the world. Every trek reinforces what we believe: the Himalayas change people, and we are honored to be part of that transformation.
