Stories Waiting

Nepal sits among Asia’s most popular travel regions yet remains vastly undiscovered. Hidden waterfalls, crystal-blue lakes, ancient royal cities, and wildlife reserves that rival any on Earth. We want to show you all of it.

At Alta, extraordinary places deserve extraordinary experiences. Private helicopters, boutique lodges, expert guides, and dedicated photographers. Comfort is never compromised.

Three Landscapes

Nepal's Three Worlds

No other country compresses this much diversity into one terrain. From arctic peaks to subtropical jungles, three topographies in one journey.

Mountains

The Himalayas

8 of the world’s 10 highest peaks. Witness Everest from a helicopter, trek Annapurna in comfort, or watch sunrise from a mountain lodge.

Terai

The Terai Lowlands

Two of Asia’s largest national parks — Chitwan and Bardia. Rhinos, tigers, elephants, and one-of-a-kind jungle safaris.

Hilly Region

The Hilly Region

Pokhara’s lakeside serenity, Bandipur’s medieval streets, and Kathmandu’s ancient temples — Nepal’s living cultural and natural heart.

Expeditions

Our most celebrated journeys — refined over years, beloved by clients, and impossible to replicate. These are the experiences that define Alta Expedition Club.

The Nepal Grand Journey brings these different sides of the country together in one carefully paced experience. Begin in Kathmandu, exploring its temples, courtyards and historic cities before heading south to the wild landscapes of Chitwan National Park.

Our Story

Born From a Simple Belief

Nepal sits among Asia’s most popular travel regions, yet remains vastly undiscovered. While millions visit Thailand and Bali, the Himalayas and their secrets: ancient cities, hidden lakes, jungle reserves, wait quietly.

Alta Expedition Club was founded to change that. We curate comfort-first expeditions that show Nepal in its fullest form: from the highest peaks to the wildest jungles, without asking you to sacrifice a single night’s sleep.

Our guides are born from these landscapes. They carry stories no guidebook contains. Our dedicated photographers capture your journey so you never have to choose between holding a camera and living the moment.

"Our mission is simple: create memories that last: across three terrains, four seasons, and a lifetime of wonder."

Kathmandu, Nepal
"I’m not much of a trekker, but I love nature. Six days with Alta let me experience Kathmandu’s culture, Pokhara’s peaceful lakeside, and cozy mountain lodges at the foothills of the Annapurna Range by private jeep. A comfortable, unforgettable way to discover Nepal. Highly recommend!"

Frequently asked questions!

What makes Alta different from a typical Nepal trekking company?

Alta is a boutique and comfort-first; handpicked lodges with en-suite bathrooms, dedicated English-speaking guides and photographers. Every trip is designed around comfort, not just reaching a destination.

Shared Group Trips have fixed seasonal dates, small groups (max 8), and a set itinerary. Ideal if you want everything handled and don’t mind traveling with others. Great for solo travelers, those wanting to make friends or want to see it all in a short week! Private Trips itineraries are flexible to your desired dates (require min 2 people), and also flexible to customize the activities. Fully Custom Trips are private, on your own dates and pace, built around your specific interests. Reach out to us on Whatspp to know more!

The cost of your trip depends on the duration of your trip and activities included in your itinerary. Shared Group Trips have set travel dates and activities, and the cost can be found on the trip details page. For Private Trips, we can send you an estimate based on your travel dates and itinerary. Feel free to reach out to us on WhatsApp at anytime.

Every Alta trip covers all lodging, domestic travel, and English-speaking guide, breakfast and selected meals, annd all entry permits. More details are provided on your trip details page. Optional add-ons include a private photographer/videographer for your private/custom trip, helicopter charters, optional activities not included in your itinerary, alcoholic beverages, personal shopping and gratuity for your guide and porters.

Each season uncovers Nepal’s beauty in different ways. Autumn gives you clear mountain views and Nepal’s biggest festive season, Dashain and Tihar. Winter gives you improved visibility for Jungle Safari wildlife spotting in Chitwan National Park. Spring gives you clear mountain views, best trekking season, and rhododendron and jacaranda blooms that give the country vibrance. Summer gives you white water rafting, best season for city and cultural tours, and a visit to the forbidden kingdom in Upper Mustang, Lo Manthang!

Depends on the trip you choose! All Alta trips are labeled “Trek” or “Non-Trek”. Non-Trips do not require trekking experience at all, since most of your travel will be through Alta’s private jeep, domestic flight or helicopter flight. Trek trips, however, do require a good fitness level and some trekking experience is recommended. You can find the exact trek difficulty and fitness level required on the specific trek detail page or reach out to us on WhatsApp.

Your English-speaking Alta guide will be with you from the moment you land in Nepal until you leave for departure. Airport transfers and all domestic travel are covered in your trip price.
