Nepal Branding as a Tourism Destination


One Horned Rhino
Nepal has been attracting international visitors since long time when travelers were drawn by stories of an exotic and stunning landscape, thermal and scenic wonders, curious indigenous wildlife and flora. Nepalese culture is another huge draw card. From its early beginnings, Nepal tourism has thrived on innovation and adventure. Some of the best known contributions to the tourism industry have been invented such as the bungy jumping, rafting, trekking etc.

Volunteer Program in Nepal



Volunteer Program in Nepal

Volunteering is one of the most enjoyable and amiable things that you can do, not only for yourself but for the people you are helping along the way. In Nepal, partaking in a volunteer program gives you a wonderful and unique opportunity to live and interact with a local family, gaining a firsthand insight into the culture and customs of this unique Himalayan country. You will also get to play an important role in aiding a small community in gaining an edge in education. It's often the case in rural areas that education is under-funded and poor. By volunteering in one of the many schools in our programs, you are offering your teaching experience and your ability as an English speaker to help educate not only the children, but the teachers as well. Along your journey you will form many life-long friends and memories that you will be able to tell your grandchildren about.
