Mr. Durga Bahadur Tamang

Executive Director Mr. Durga Tamang is the Executive Director at Himalayan Unforgettable Adventure Ltd and one of its founding members.

He grew up in Gatlang, which is situated in the picturous Langtang region 165 km north of Kathmandu. Beautiful Gatlang is one overnight stop on the famous Tamang Heritage Trek which is known for its cultural depth and scenic views. Language speak Tamang, Tibetan, Nepalese, English, Français. He has been working in tourism and for more than 25 years guiding groups to Langtang, Gosaikunda, Annapurna, Mustang, Manaslu, Everest, Dolpo,. In 2011 I established his own trekking agency in Nepal. Hes feel very close with USA in Americas and Europe, European friends in Spain, French, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Portuguese, Austria, Netherlands nationalitys. As well he got the chance to do trekking in Himalayas. He is intimately familiar with numerous local traditions, customs and languages of all the major trekking areas. He loves to share his cultural insights with our clients that are not covered in any guide book. For his work, he has always received outstanding reviews and the highest degree of appreciation. Following  Company this is one trek where  a local guide is particularly useful, not so much for route finding but to smooth cultural encounters and help arrange homestay, where very little English is spoken. LOCAL AGENCIES many travellers have writen to recommend Gatlang Resident and Guide Durga Tamang, who run Himalayan unfortunate Adventure (nepalmountaintrekking.com

Durga Tamang is also a highly engaged social worker. In rural villages of remote places such as the Rasuwa district people mainly live self-sufficient and often the food that is grown (mainly barley, wheat and potatoes) is often not enough to feed its inhabitants during the four harsh winter months let alone financing education for the youngsters. Being a half orphan himself and coming from a very poor background Durga Tamang  our-team knows of the importance of receiving a decent education and started his mission for the new generation. In order to support the people of his home district Rasuwa he established the local NGO “Rural Tourism and Environment Education Society” (RTEES Nepal) in 2009. The organization is aiming to enhance the economic capacity of rural communities by eco-friendly and qualitative tourism. The gain from this ultimately goes to the schools and children of the communities. RTEES Nepal is therefore proud to support five schools, Buddhist Monastery and is actively involved in local development.

Nepal is a safe and welcoming country to visit, and tourism supports both the local economy and rebuilding efforts around the country. Come and join us for a life changing experience – with Himalayan Unforgettable Adventures!!
