Tourist offices Nepal

The programme is led by the Nepalese Government with technical and financial assistance from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the International development Department and SNV Nepal.

This pilot program supports tourism development of six sites with major tourism potential: Taplejung, Solukhumbu, Rasuwa, Chitwan, Rupandehi and Dolpa. The objective of the programme is to encourage villagers to invest in tourist activities in order to derive maximum financial benefits. Several circuits have been developed allowing visitors to discover the country's natural and cultural richness while meeting local populations. Several villages on these trails have been trained in the reception of foreigners and offer tourist services (accommodation, catering, guidance service…). Thus, 48 village development committees have been established and manage tourist activity in villages.

The mission of this website is to promote tourism in Nepal. You will find plenty of information for your stay.

Developed in the national park and in the Helambu region, the project aims to improve the capacities of local communities on the main road road, to manage the ecological impacts of tourism, as well as to promote cultural traditions and bring benefits to the populations. In partnership with the National Park and several ngos, several community committees have been established in the region and have developed tourism planning in each of the 10 main villages of Climbing-Helambu. Established in 1996, this project has allowed the installation of a kerosene depot, the creation of jobs within the local population, and funds are poured into local development programs, reforestation (over 17 500 trees have been replanted) and visitor awareness.
