Recommendation for the trekking business of
Bija Rai, Beauty Nepal Adventure Pty. Ltd.
Lake Side 6,
Pokhara,
Nepal.


Peter and I have no hesitation in highly recommending Bijay’s trekking business, Beauty Nepal Adventure Pty. Ltd. He has many years of experience as a guide and porter, and has a deep knowledge of his region. We have known Bijay since 2005, when we embarked on our first trek in Nepal, in the Annapurna region, to celebrate our forthcoming sixtieth birthdays. This was an inspirational trip in what must be one of the most beautiful countries in the world, with a colourful and rich culture, and delightful people. However it was challenging territory too, and we were very dependant on good guides and porters to look after us. Bijay was part of our group. Together with the others in his team we had a memorable, happy and safe trip and enjoyed their company. We were also impressed with the way the guides and porters were looked after. Since then we have kept in touch with our friends in Nepal and, in 2008, we returned to trek in the Everest region. This was another unique and wonderful experience. So we believe that you will be in very good hands with Bijay and his team.

Trekking in Nepal

In 2004 ontmoette ik Bijay voor de eerste keer. Hij was onze gids toen ik in Nepal was met Mathilde, een goede vriendin waarmee ik al vaak gereisd heb. Wij komen uit Nederland en houden erg van Nepal vanwege de cultuur, de vriendelijke bevolking en de wandelroutes door de Himalaya. Elke keer weer zijn de trektochten een geweldige en intense ervaring.

Samen met Bijay en een drager maakten wij in dat jaar een tocht, een combinatie van de Langtang-, de Gosaïnkund- en de Helambu-route. Het waren erg prettige weken en wij hebben Bijay leren kennen als een heel goede en ervaren gids. Hij heeft ons veel verteld over de Nepalese cultuur, wat de trektocht een meerwaarde gaf. Wij vonden het een fantastische belevenis en kregen beslist waar voor ons geld.

Bijay heeft ervaring met allerlei soorten tochten: met groepen en individuele wandelaars, in afgelegen gebieden zoals Dolpo en meer populaire bestemmingen als Jomosom, Annapurna en Everest Basecamp.

Bijay is onlangs zijn eigen wandelorganisatie begonnen: Beauty Nepal. Het adres is Lakeside 6 in Pokhara. Email: beautynepal@fewanet.com.np

- Dankzij zijn ruime ervaring met diverse trektochten voor individuen en groepen kan hij een passende tocht voor elke toerist adviseren;

- Voor de meer avontuurlijke reizigers heeft hij tenten;

- Hij werkt met goede gidsen en dragers.

Wij kunnen u aanraden om uw trektocht via hem te boeken. We verzekeren u dat Bijay uitstekende kwaliteit levert! Voor informatie kunt u ons mailen: aanhenriette@hotmail.com, mathildebos@planet.nl

Veel groeten,
Henriette en Mathilde

In October 2006 my sister Liz and I did a private trek along the Annapurna  Circuit.  We are both experienced Nepal trekkers and always enjoy the company of our Nepalese porters and guides as much as we do the stunning scenery. On this trek we travelled with our good friend Purna Gurang who introduced us to experienced guide, Bijay Ray. Several friends had also recommended Bijay and after spending a couple of weeks in close company with him, I can only say how lucky we were to trek with him.

His cheery disposition, extensive knowledge of the region, and good command of English makes him a great travelling companion. He was always pointing out things of interest, flora and fauna, geographical and social and often accompanied with his point of view.  Our knowledge and understanding of Nepal has been greatly enhanced thanks to Bijay. 

We also found Bijay to have very good organizational skills and to be totally honest and trustworthy and this has only been endorsed by others we know who have had dealing with him. 

An unfortunate accident has halted Bijays’ guiding career but you cannot keep an enterprising man down. Bijay has opened up his own trekking company and from all accounts he is applying the same high standards to this as he did as a guide. If you are trekking in Nepal I can strongly recommend you consider using Bijays’ company. Check it out at www.beautynepaladventure.com 

Bijay. Time for a break.

Trekking in Nepal
In 2004, I, Henriëtte, met Bijay for the first time when I was in Nepal; with a good friend called Mathilde, with whom I often travelled before.
We are from Holland and we like Nepal very much of its culture, the nice people and for trekking in the Himalaya's which is a great and intense experience, every time we go there.At that time Bijay was our trekking guide.Together with him and a porter we made a trek, which was a combination of the "Langtang", "Gosaïnkund" and "Helambu" trek. We had a few very nice weeks together and we got to know Bijay as a very capable and nice guide with a lot of experience in trekking.
He told us also very much about the Nepalese culture, which gave the trek an extra dimension.
Bijay has experience with all kind of treks. With groups or with individuals, to remote area's like "Dolpo" or to more popular areas, where Mathilde and I went, as did many other tourists (Jomosom, Annapurna, and Everest Basecamp).
Our experience is that his treks are a sheer delight and worth every penny you pay.
Recently Bijay started his own Trekking agency with the name "Beauty Nepal" which is at Lakeside 6 in Pokhara.

- Because of his broad experience with trekking to all kind of areas with individuals and groups he can advise suitable treks for every tourist;

Trekking au Népal
Moi, Henriëtte, j’ai rencontré Bijay pour la première fois au Népal en 2004 pendant un de mes voyages avec Mathilde, une très bonne amie.

Nous venons des Pays-Bas et nous avons une grande admiration pour la culture Népalaise  et son peuple, ce qui rend le trekking dans l’Himalaya à chaque fois pour nous extraordinaire et très intense.

Bijay était notre guide pendant notre voyage en 2004. Avec lui et un porter nous avons fait un trek, ce qui était une combinaison des treks de "Langtang", "Gosaïnkund" et "Helambu". Nous y avons passé ensemble des semaines inoubliables et nous avons beaucoup apprécié Bijay pour son expérience et ses grandes capacités.

Il nous a parlé beaucoup de la culture Népalaise ce qui donnait à ce trek une dimension spéciale. Bijay se dispose d’une expérience de treks de toutes sortes ; en groupes ou en individuel, aux endroits éloignés ou plus fréquentés comme Jomosom, Annapurna et Everest Basecamp , des régions que Mathilde et moi avons visité ainsi que beaucoup d’autres touristes.

Bijay a ouvert récemment sa propre agence de trekking qui porte le nom "Beauty Nepal" et se situe au 6 Lakeside à Pokhara. L’adresse email est : beautynepal@fewanet.com.np

Sa vaste expérience de trekking en individuel et en groupe dans les différentes régions permet à Bijay de proposer des treks adaptés pour chaque touriste.

Il connait bien les montagnes et peut proposer différentes solutions d’hébergement. Il dispose également de tentes pour les touristes qui cherchent une aventure encore plus intense. Il travaille avec des guides et porters de confiance.

Nous vous recommandons donc d’organiser votre trek avec Bijay. Vous seriez assurés d’être accompagnés par un guide de haute performance.

Pour tous vos renseignements envoyez nous vos correspondances à :

aanhenriette@hotmail.com ou mathildebos@planet.nl

Nous vous souhaitons un bon trek.

Henriëtte et Mathilde

Reisen, Wandern, Touren durch Nepal

2004 trafen wir Bijay zum ersten Mal. Er war unser Führer (Reiseleiter) in Nepal.
Wir komen aus Niederland und halten viel von Nepal. Es war nicht unsere erste Nepal-Reise. Die Kultur, die freundliche Bevölkerung und die prächtige Natur ziehen uns immer wieder an. Die Wanderungen und Touren sind für uns grossartige und intensive Erfahrungen.

Mit Bijay und einem Träger machten wir eine Tour (ein ‘Trek’). Es war einen Kombination von der Langtang- de Gosaïnkund- en de Helambu- Strecke. Es waren angenehme Wochen (etwa vier) und wir haben Bijay kennen gelernt als einen guten und erfahrenen Führer. Er hat uns viel erzählt über die Nepalsche Kultur und Tradition, was für uns eine Bereicherung war. Es was ein wunderbares Erlebnis und wir bekamen sicherlich “Ware für unser Geld”.

Bijay hat grosse Erfahrung mit den verschiedensten Touren; mit Gruppen oder individuellen Wanderer in abgelegen Gebieten sowie Dolpo oder auch populären Bestimmungen, wie Jomosom, Annapurna und Everest Basecamp.
Bijay hat seit kurzem eine Wander- Tour- Organisation eröffnet: “Beauty Nepal”.
Die Adresse lautet: Lakeside 6 in Pokhara. Email: beautynepal@fewanet.comp.np

Dank seiner grossen Erfahrung kann er Gruppen und individuelle Wanderer gut beraten und begleiten.
- für die echten Abenteurer stehen Zelte zur Verfügung
- Bijay arbeitet mit guten Führern und Trägern
Wir können Ihnen empfehlen bei ihm eine Wandertour zu buchen. Wir versichern Ihnen, das Bijay vortreffliche Kwalität liefert. Für mehr Information können Sie uns mailen:

Mit freundlichen Grüssen,
Henriette van Burgsteden und Mathilde Bos

 

BIJAY RAI AND BEAUTY NEPAL ADVENTURE GUIDE RECOMMENDATION

I strongly recommend Bijay Rai as a guide having trekked with him to Annapurna Base camp in 2005 and with his company Beauty Nepal Adventure on The Annapurna Circuit in 2008. I was extremely impressed with the logistics and organisation of both trips and Bijay’s reliability. When travelling on your own it is important to feel secure and confident with your guide, that they have excellent knowledge of the mountains and the trek is planned and organised accordingly with safety being the main priority.
Both occasions have been unforgettable experiences and unique journeys exploring the amazingly beautiful landscape that Nepal has to offer. In addition Bijay has great integrity, excellent communication skills and a deep knowledge of the varying cultures, plants, birds, animals, natural habitats and land formations. He is very happy to answer any questions you may have. He is great company and has excellent interpersonal and social skills. Being a good communicator he imparts knowledge easily and with clarity but also knows when to give space and your own time, for reflection.
I work as an artist and enjoy identifying plants so spent much time stopping to photograph and sketch, Bijay was always very patient with me and I never felt rushed.
I do not hesitate to highly recommend Bijay and his company Beauty Nepal Adventure and am happy to answer any questions you may have.
