About us

The Himalayas are our work and our life

Nira Travels is a team of guides who live in Nepal year-round. We are not an agency — we walk the routes ourselves, arrange the porters and cooks, and make calls on the ground.

Healthy Himalaya Travel — expeditions and spiritual practices in the Himalayas

We have been operating in Nepal, Tibet, Bhutan and Kailash since 2010. All routes are authored: developed by a team of sherpa-guides, cultural field researchers and high-altitude medics.

Small groups (4–14 people), unique pacing, UIAGM-certified expedition leaders.

What matters to us

  • Time for everyone

    6–10 travellers per group. Otherwise we lose the point — the connection to the place and the people.

  • Ethics over comfort

    We pay porters at the top of the band, never bend altitude protocols, and don't enter places we shouldn't.

  • Programs that work

    Each route is tested by the team at least twice before launch.

The team

Two founders, three staff guides, local partners in every region. Everyone speaks at least two languages — Russian and English; many speak Nepali too.
