We get this a LOT!! For starters, a lot of Aussies think we are some sort of es**rt service but hope it is clear by now that is not the case.
HoneyGuide is ‘honeyguide’ because just like the honeyguide bird that guides bears and badgers to honeycombs, HoneyGuide guides hikers and trekkers to amazing places. And just like the bears and badgers, you will have to go through a lot of huffing and puffing and climbing to get to the honey. Read more about How we named the company HoneyGuide.
Customization and Impact through Direct Bookings
You will also find that, at HoneyGuide, you can book services directly from the people who provide the services. These are hardy people who have etched out a living and a life out of one of the most inhospitable terrains on earth. Buying directly from the porters, guides, trek leaders, and lodge owners, will not only empowers them and raises their livelihood but also increases the level of service in the long run.
This will also allow you to build the trek the way you see fit knowing full well what you are paying for. And all the while you are doing this you can rest assured that your money is directly creating impact in the lives of the hardy people who are dependent upon the mountains.
Transparency and Experience through Content
Everything at HoneyGuide happens because of the attachment to the mountains and the need to promote mountain communities. At HoneyGuide, trekkers get detailed and unbiased information about prices, safety, route descriptions, and contact numbers. However, HoneyGuide goes beyond the logistical information to help you truly understand the land and people. Is Machhapuchhre really a holy mountain? Why is there a c**k eating a pig eating a snake eating a c**k in that painting? Why are prayer flags so colorful? What are the dates for the Mani Rimdu festival for 2019? These are all fair game at HoneyGuide. Check out HoneyGuide’s trekking app ‘Trekking in Nepal’ for Android and iOS
