• 5Great experience; amazing nature and people

  We had an amazing time on the Chopta trek! Really good experience, they make it really easy because everything from start to finish is included; food, drinks, entry fee's, transport, even trekking Gear. No extra charges! Wich is not common in India. They picked us up and dropped us back off at our hotel. And the 4 Days in between were amazing. Every day was filled with amazing views of nature and local experiences. The mountains are simply stunning. The accomadations were also really unique, things we would never find ourselfs. But the best thing about our trip were our driver Sandeep , who is very funny and sweet and our guide Ankush, who has a lot of knowledge and even more passion about the nature and mountains. Would 100% recommend!

• 5Went solo but ended up feeling like a group trip!

  I had a really good experience with Go 4 Explore. Everything was well planned, starting from the travel, stay, and food. Special shout-out to our trip Captain Rajdeep Singh, who made this trip memorable. We had loads of fun. He wasn't just a tour manager but felt more like a friend. He guided and listened to us throughout, and there were times when he was holding our bags so that we could climb down easily. I traveled solo on this trip but not once did I feel like I was traveling solo. It felt like I was traveling in a group.

• 55 stars isn’t enough for Mapping the Himalayas and Kalyan.

  I came to India solo as a female traveler and left with memories that will stay with me for the rest of my life. From the moment the trip started, I felt completely safe, cared for, and genuinely looked after in a way that’s honestly rare to find anywhere in the world. We trekked Kedarnath, Badrinath, Tungnath, explored Mana village, stayed in beautiful homestays, crossed unbelievable mountain roads, and somehow every single day felt like an adventure movie mixed with a spiritual pilgrimage. The views were unreal. The photos we took look like scenes from a film. Every turn in the Himalayas felt surreal. What made this experience different though was the flexibility and heart behind it. Kalyan never treated the trip like a rigid itinerary. He gave me options constantly and built the experience around what I wanted to do, eat, explore, and experience. If I was hungry, we stopped. If I wanted chai, we found chai. If I wanted to stay longer somewhere beautiful, we stayed longer. I probably gained 7 kg because I was fed constantly and happily accepted my fate. At one point on the drive toward Tungnath, he randomly pulled out KitKats and handed them to me while we climbed higher into the mountains, and weirdly enough that tiny moment ended up becoming one of those memories that sticks with you forever. Kalyan also seemed to know everyone everywhere we went. Whether it was locals, guesthouses, shop owners, temple areas, drivers, or mountain routes, I genuinely felt like I only needed one contact in India to have a completely customized and authentic experience. He’s an incredible adventurer, an excellent businessman, and one of the most patient people I’ve met. But more than that, he’s deeply kind. I paid attention to the way he treated animals, children, older people, and strangers throughout the journey, and it told me everything I needed to know about his character. If you are a solo traveler, especially a woman, and you want an experience that feels safe, flexible, adventurous, personal, and unforgettable, book with Mapping the Himalayas. Some trips stay in your camera roll. This one stays somewhere much deeper.

• 5Unforgettable sunrise views at Tungnath

  Had a great experience with Mapping the Himalayas. I did the 4D3N Chotpa/Tungnath trek and it was one of the highlights of my India trip. Narayan, our guide, made the trip amazing. He is a sweet, funny guy with a gentle soul and it was super fun to hike with him. He is a local from Uttarkashi district and a devout Hindu, so he was able to give us lots of information about local culture, history, native plants and animals and of course Hinduism. He also knew things like the spots where we could watch the sunrise while avoiding the crowds. Would recommend him as a guide to anybody Thanks Narayan!

• 5Very well organised trip

  We had an amazing mountain trip—everything was thoughtfully organised and we felt genuinely well taken care of throughout. The journey from Rishikesh took about 6–7 hours, but it passed quickly thanks to scenic stops at local restaurants, with meals already included in the price. Our guide, Narayan, was incredibly attentive, always checking that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Even though I was a slower walker, he never rushed me and made sure I was always okay. I’d absolutely recommend this experience with them. They also provided all the essential gear, including hiking shoes and walking sticks, which made everything much easier.

• 5Highly recommended Chopta treck

  We had a great experience with Chopta Treck. Our guide Narayan was taking care of every aspect and had organized very well the meals and places to sleep. Our driver Sundeep drove safely and comfortably. The first evening at Deoria Lake was excellent, with the beautiful lake, the food cooked on wood fire, and comfortable tent accommodation. The second day crossed beautiful forests, with impressive views of himalayan range and peaks. Third day’s wake up at 2am will stay in our memory, and the gentle ascent under the stars. On the summit we saw the sun raising beside the 2nd highest peak of India, Nanda Devi, you seem to be at the top of the world! Thanks to Narayan and Sundeep, and to the organizers

About Rishikesh

Rishikesh is a Himalayan foothill town where the Ganges leaves the mountains, known for yoga ashrams, suspension bridges and white-water rafting.

Rishikesh lies in Uttarakhand, where the Ganges runs fast and green out of the Himalayan foothills and onto the plains. It is a pilgrimage town as well as a centre for yoga and meditation. The Ram Jhula and other suspension footbridges cross the river between temples, cafés and ashrams, and the Beatles studied meditation at Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's ashram here in 1968; its weathered buildings stand in the forest today.
