Bungee Jumping is one of best excitement activities in Nepal. The stunning natural surroundings so close to Tibet make the jump an almost magical experience. We can do it in a same day from Kathmandu (distance 100km). If you are coming from Tibet side, you can have the thrilling experience of jumping at that time. It will start about 11am but they operate twice in a week or must be 4 people minimum to operate any day. If you have any medical problems, please discuss with the jump master. We advise you to wear closed shoes for the bungee. Make sure your pockets are empty and keep in mind that cameras and bags are not allowed on the bridge.

Nepal is one of the best paragliding venue after Switzerland. The climate & geographic similarities between the two countries have made it sound more relevant. Encouragingly, Pokhara has been nominated as the fifth best location to paraglide in the world in the context when paragliding is being seen as key product by entrepreneurs. Paragliding History is not very long.

The first and only registered paragliding company in Nepal is Sun Rise Paragliding based in Pokhara was established in 2000 AD with the help of Adam Hill, a British National and a paragliding Pilot. Paragliding can be a perfect alternative adventure sport in Nepal geographically and climatically.

Honey hunting is a traditional practice that has been carried out in Nepal for centuries. It is a dangerous activity, where honey hunters climb steep cliffs and cliffs to reach the hives of wild bees, often using makeshift rope ladders or bamboo poles. The honey hunting tradition is mainly found in the mountainous region of Nepal, mainly in the hilly district such as Mustang, Dolpa, Manang, and Langtang.

The honey collected through this method is considered to be of high quality and is highly valued by the local communities. The honey is also considered to have medicinal properties and is used to treat a variety of ailments.

Tourists often visit Nepal to witness the honey hunting tradition and to learn about the cultural and historical significance of the practice. Visitors can take part in organized honey hunting tours, which usually include a trek to the honey hunting site, a demonstration of the honey hunting process, and the opportunity to taste the honey and other bee-related products.

It is important to note that the honey hunting tradition is under threat from a variety of factors, including the destruction of bee habitats, the use of pesticides, and the increased commercialization of the honey trade. Efforts are being made to preserve the tradition, including by promoting sustainable honey hunting practices and raising awareness about the importance of protecting bee populations.

Let the freshness of the Lamjung district ( Gandaki valley) and its people add new vigour to your holiday. Capture the raw lively view nature provides as you embark in this journey. Experience the adrenaline rushing through you as you witness the adventures of the honey hunters of Nepal.

Best Comment from Our Clients!!

By surfing on the Internet, the Nepal Tibet Tours & Treks  is the only agent that I found who can organize this kind of honey-hunting trip, that’s why we contacted them, and we found them doing a great job of guiding us through the magnificent villages and wonderful views before reaching the hunting site. Even though we camp all the way, but their team of porters takes good care of everything from the camp setting and nice cooking. We enjoyed a great deal. This honey-hunting tour allows us to witness the wonderful and mythical practice of Gurung people’s still thriving hunting skill that is almost finished in other parts of the world. And the honey hunters village ‘Bhujung’ is the one of the most beautiful village I ever seen, not to mention the hospitality of the local people. Can only say that I left my heart in Bhujung.
