Our Partner Agency in Nepal

For those of our customers who like to be treated as friends also on private tours in Nepal, we recommend to contact:

Apex Nepal Treks & Tours Pvt Ltd,
Amrit Marg (Bhagwan Bahal), Thamel, Kathmandu, Nepal. Apart from using the inquiry form on their contact page, you can send them emails to apexnepal1@gmail.com or call our contact person, manager Santu: ++977 9856055566

Similar to Lanka Excursions Holidays, Apex Nepal Treks & Tours is a company run by local professionals (native Nepalis) who started as local tour guides and therefore know their country and the needs and preferences of their guests and travelers best and who established their own company to offer their services directly.

Nepal is a beautiful country in South Asia, in between India and China (Tibet). Nepal has unique geological as well as biological diversities. The lowest point is 60m high above the sea level and it goes all the way high up to 8848m above sea level, the highest point on our planet.  The capital city of Nepal is Kathmandu with a population of 3 million people. The country has several beautiful towns such as Pokhara, Chitwan, Bardia, Lumbini etc. in a lower altitude and Namche, Ghandruk, Jomsom, Manang etc. in higher elevation. The people in Nepal are very friendly, helpful and with an ever smiling face. People here do believe “Guest is a form of God”, so they respect and welcome them with a warm heart.

"Apex Nepal Treks & Tours” is a guide-owned company in Nepal, organizing best Trekking, Tours, Expeditions and many other adventurous activities in Nepal.  (more…)

Both companies, Apex Nepal Treks & Tours and Lanka Excursions Holidays, organize Buddhist and Hindu cultural or pilgrimage tours, as both countries, Nepal and Sri Lanka, have a rich Buddhist and Hindu tradition and impressive monuments and sacred sites of both Asian religions.
There are also some differences, of course. In Sri Lanka, Buddhism and Hinduism are represented by the two major ethnicities, the Sinhalese majority resp. Tamil minority, whereas there are many more minorities in Nepal and the large Newar community, the majority in the Kathmandu valley, practices both religions side by side. For comparison, some Hindu elements - such as worship of Hindu deities - are also integrated in the Sinhalese version of Buddhism. But veneration of Shiva is almost never found among Buddhists in Sri Lanka, whereas Shiva worship is typical of the religion of Tamils. In contrast, Shiva worship - besides Buddhism - is quite common among Newars. Furthermore, the forms of Buddhism differ. The Sinhala Buddhism is Theravadin, whereas Newars usually practice a quite unique form of Tantric Buddhism. The institutional basis of Buddhism in Sri Lanka is much more focused on the Sangha (the Order of monks) than in the Newari culture. Though there are some differences in styles of art accordingly, some basic features are shared in Buddhist architecture of Nepal and Sri Lanka, most notably the stupa buildings. The birthplace of the historical Buddha Shakyamuni is in Lumbhini in Nepal, whereas the most famous Buddha relic is the Sacred Tooth in Kandy in Sri Lanka, a canine, that had been kept when the Buddha was cremated in Kushinagara in the Indian part of the Ganges region, close to today's Nepal border.
Apart from heritage tours, the major focus of Apex Nepal Treks & Tours, of course, is hiking and trekking in the Himalayas.

But they also offer safaris in wildlife areas in the lowlands of Nepal, the Terai region along the Indian border. The Chitwan National Park in Nepal is as well-known for the rare single-horned species of rhinos and also for its tiger population... as Sri Lanka's Yala National Park is famous for the world's highest density in leopards.

some major tourist attractions in Nepal:

Annapurna Range and Pokhara Valley
Annapurna Range and Pokhara Valley
Pokhara, Nepal's second largest town, is renowned for wonderful lakes and surrounding hills, offering spectacular views to the Annapurna mountain range, which raises to a height of 8091 meters above sea level.
Durbar in Kathmandu
Durbar in Kathmandu
Kathmandu, Nepal's charming capital, is situated in an elevation with a mild climate. The central Durbar Square, also called Hanuman Dhoka, is part of the World Heritage Site Kathmandu Valley. The head office of Apex Nepal Treks & Tours is located only 1.5km north of the square.  
Swayambhunath Stupa
Swayambhunath Stupa
Swayambhunath, picturesquely located on the summit of a hill in the Kathmandu Valley, is one of the oldest large stupas in Nepal, roughly 2 centuries younger than Sri Lanka's Jetavanarama in Anuradhapura. Among tourists, Swayambhunath is known as "monkey temple", because the northwestern area is inhabited by holy monkeys, they are believed to be the offspring of the lice in Bodhisattva Manjushri's long hair.
Indian rhinos in Chitwan National Park in Nepal
Indian rhinos in Chitwan National Park in Nepal
Chitwan has the oldest national park in Nepal and the largest of the three parks in the lush green lowlands close to the Indian border. Tigers and leopards are the big cats of Chitwan NP. Chances are good to observe Indian rhinoceros, more than 500 of which inhabit this park. It covers an area as large as Yala blocks 1 and 2 and 3 combined.
