About LetsGoHimalayas.com

What is LetsGoHimalayas.com?

LetsGoHimalayas.com is a free trip-matching guide to 148 Himalayan and Northeast India destinations. You say why you are going — peace, snow, a trek, a pilgrimage, a family trip — and it ranks places that fit your month, fitness, days and budget.

How does the matching work?

Pick up to three reasons for your trip, then your travel month, group, fitness, days and budget. Each destination is scored against those answers using its season, altitude, difficulty, days needed and daily cost, and every result also says why it might not suit you.

Which regions are covered?

Kashmir, Ladakh, Himachal, Uttarakhand, Nepal, Darjeeling hills, Sikkim, Arunachal, Assam and Meghalaya — treks, hill towns, pilgrimages, road trips, snow and retreats.

Can I book homestays, cabs or tours here?

No. LetsGoHimalayas.com takes no bookings and no commission. Homestays, drivers and tour operators list themselves for free; you sign in with Google to see their phone and WhatsApp and deal with them directly.

How accurate are the altitudes, seasons and costs?

They are careful estimates, not guarantees. Pages that have not been field-verified say so. Always confirm permits, road status and weather locally before you travel.
