    Amazing trip to Damodar Kunda

    Damodar Kunda was a fabulous destination both for scenic and religious purpose. Thank you Macchhindra and Radhika for the beautiful arrangement. We are happy with the care and services are very professional and prompt. I would definately recommend Oriental Journeys for any kind of tour and trek.

    Amazing trip to Damodar Kunda

    I had been planning this trip for the past two years and it was finally completed with the management of Machhindra Acharya through Oriental Journeys Pvt. Ltd , Nepal. He planned our family vacation and we enjoyed a lot. Damodar Kunda and Muktinath tour were on our itinerary, and everything went off without a hitch. Thank you so much, Machhindra for making our trip so memorable.

    Thank you Michael ! for the wonderful comment. We are hoping to serve you again for the next memorable trip to Nepal with Oriental Journeys!
