In 1983, Jai
Himal Trekking P. Ltd the brain-child of a Tourism Entrepreneur was born. Nepal was
just beginning
to interest Trekkers and Mountaineers alike and the Company was started to fill in the
demands of the ever
growing Tourism Industry. The majority of the Trekkers and Travellers were from the US and
Japan. In its almost two
decades of existence, Jai Himal has
catered to, and successfully organised, numerous expeditions, including major ones
to "Everest" the ultimate "Roof of the World".
Three years later, Saiyu Travel
P. Ltd. was started, because the need was felt to cover areas other than just trekking
and mountaineering. Saiyu focused its
expertise on Cultural, Religious and Ethnic Tours, especially for those who wanted to
partake of the beauty of Nepal, but without "climbing mountains ! ".
These Tours, cover Valleys, Hills and the Terai Region.
Another ten years later, and with
the intent of expanding service base and covering all aspects of
the tourism related areas, Safari Adventure Lodge was opened at the Royal Chitwan
National Park. Safari Adventure,
true to its name, offers complete adventures and safaris, all of which are very
professionally
managed.
Combining all three organisations into the Jai
Himal Group, was a dream come true. The Group offers to a visitor, all that Nepal has,
for the Mountaineer, Trekker, Tourist, Traveller or Back-
Packer ! The Jai Himal Group provides a complete and simple to comprehensive
package,
with budgets to suit everyone. Young and old alike !!
