I was looking for a holiday travel to Himalayas without negative impacts to the environment. It was a great tour in Nepal with low carbon emission and offsetting my carbon footprint through plantation support at the end of the tour. Thanks to Himalayan Luxury Holidays team for such a fantastic carbon-neutral tour in Nepal.
