My name is Dammaru Niraula, a freelance trekking guide from Kathmandu, Nepal, with 22 years of experience in the Himalayas. I am a registered trekking guide with a government-authorized license to lead foreigners in Nepal’s mountain regions.
My journey in the tourism industry began in 1988 as a Sherpa (assistant guide). After two years, I worked as an assistant cook before gaining more experience in the field. I later completed a two-month trekking guide training course from the authorized body of His Majesty’s Government of Nepal (now the Nepali Government). This enabled me to become a permanent trekking guide.
To better serve clients, I also studied English and completed a Japanese language course. Since 1990, I have professionally guided foreigners, and for the past 18 years, I have specialized in trekking across Nepal’s mountains, ensuring memorable experiences for my clients.
My professional journey in the trekking industry includes a decade-long full-time role at Himalayan Holidays Trekking Pvt. Ltd., Kathmandu, in operations. This experience honed my ability to deliver exceptional services, ensuring memorable trips for clients. Understanding that satisfied clients lead to positive recommendations, I focused on exceeding expectations. Over time, I transitioned to a part-time role, maintaining my association with the company while gaining the flexibility to establish my own trekking office within the organization. I now work as a freelance guide, continuing to share my expertise in Nepal’s trekking adventures.
I have led many treks in different regions of Nepal: Everest Region, Langtang Region, Annapurna Region, Lower Mustang Region, etc. Thus, it can be confidently stated that these regions are extremely familiar to me; the general history of Nepal, the local flora and fauna, the culture and traditions of various ethnic groups, and the environmental issues of trekking areas are also well known to me.
Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) is always a major concern during high-altitude treks. Any negligence may be dangerous to the trekkers suffering from mountain sickness. I am aware of mountain sickness and its symptoms, and hence I have been successful in the timely rescue of the trekkers suffering from such sickness.
Nepal is famous for different kinds of adventurous activities. However, around 80% of total tourists who visit Nepal come for trekking.
Basically, two types of activities are organized: Tea House Trek: Accommodation is arranged in local tea houses, and all meals are provided in local lodges.
Camping/Tented/Organized Trek: Accommodation is set up in tents, and meals are prepared and served by the kitchen team. Before concluding, it should be reiterated that the vast majority of my clients have been highly satisfied with the companionship provided by me as their guide.
