About Us

Relax Getaways: since 2016, crafting immersive journeys across Nepal's Himalayas and global destinations—blending adventure, culture, and luxury.

Founded in Kathmandu in 2016, Relax Getaways Pvt. Ltd. was built on the shared vision of co-founders Resham K. Shrestha and Shishir Banjara: to create travel experiences that go far beyond a standard itinerary. Today, as a premier luxury tour operator based in the heart of Nepal, Relax Getaways brings together the majesty of Everest region trekking, the cultural depth of Nepal, and an ever-expanding portfolio of international destinations spanning Asia, the Middle East, and beyond. More than a booking service, we see ourselves as storytellers — designing journeys that become lasting memories rather than simply trips.

The Rhythm of the Himalayas

Often described as the abode of the gods, the Himalayas draw adventurers, spiritual seekers, and nature lovers from every corner of the world. Nepal sits at the heart of this legendary range, and it remains the foundation of everything Relax Getaways does.

From the world-renowned trails of the Everest region to the sweeping landscapes of the Annapurna and Langtang regions, each route tells its own story of scale, endurance, and natural beauty. For travelers seeking both comfort and adventure, our Luxury Everest Base Camp Trek with Helicopter Return combines the reward of trekking through the Khumbu with the convenience of a scenic flight back to Kathmandu — one of our most popular signature experiences. For those short on time, our Everest scenic mountain flights and helicopter tours bring the world's highest peaks within reach in just a few hours, no trekking required.

Exploring the Heart of Nepal

Nepal, often called the "Roof of the World," offers far more than dramatic mountain scenery — it's a place where nature, culture, and spirituality intersect. A journey with Relax Getaways reveals this layered identity through our Cultural and Historical Tours, which bring Nepal's ancient kingdoms and living heritage to life across the Kathmandu Valley, Lumbini, Patan, and Bhaktapur — including our own Golden Triangle Nepal Tour through Kathmandu, Chitwan, and Pokhara.

Beyond its monuments, Nepal's wild side comes alive through our Jungle Safaris in Chitwan and Bardia National Parks, where travelers can encounter Bengal tigers, one-horned rhinos, and diverse birdlife. For those chasing adrenaline, our Adventure Sports Tours combine white-water rafting, paragliding over Pokhara, and zip-lining into a single unforgettable itinerary. Nepal's vibrant festival calendar — including Dashain, Tihar, and Teej — offers travelers a deeper window into the country's living traditions.

For more exclusive experiences, Relax Getaways also specializes in Helicopter Tour Packages, Heli Trekking, destination weddings and honeymoons set against the Himalayas, tailor-made Family Tours, and specially designed Student Tours for younger travelers exploring Nepal for the first time.

A Voyage Beyond Borders

Travel, at its best, is about expanding horizons — and Relax Getaways' offerings extend well beyond Nepal. Our growing collection of international destinations gives travelers access to some of the world's most compelling places, each curated for an authentic, comfortable experience.

In South Asia, our Golden Triangle India Tour brings the splendor of Delhi, Agra, and the Taj Mahal to life, while our Majestic Bhutan Tour offers an immersive journey through the "Last Shangri-La," and Sri Lanka rounds out the region with its blend of ancient culture and coastline.

Further afield, Dubai and Jordan showcase the Middle East's striking contrasts — from Dubai's futuristic skyline and desert adventures to Jordan's ancient wonders like Petra. In Southeast Asia, we curate journeys through Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, and Bali, Indonesia, each offering its own mix of culture, cuisine, and scenery. The Maldives remains one of our most sought-after luxury escapes, with overwater villas and private island experiences built entirely around relaxation.

For travelers drawn to wildlife and vast landscapes, our Tanzania Wildlife Safari brings the classic African safari experience within reach, while China, Canada, and Australia round out our offerings for those looking to explore even farther afield.

Every international itinerary we curate is underscored by a commitment to authenticity, comfort, and immersion — blending luxury with local experience so that every traveler returns home with stories worth telling.

The Maldives: Barefoot Luxury by the Sea

For travelers seeking pure relaxation, few destinations rival the Maldives. Our Mesmerizing Maldives Vacations package places you in a luxury private beach resort, where powder-soft sand meets impossibly clear turquoise water. Days unfold at your own pace — overwater villas with direct lagoon access, private plunge pools, world-class snorkeling and diving among vibrant coral reefs, and sunset views that seem custom-made for unwinding. Whether it's a honeymoon, an anniversary, or simply a well-earned escape, our Maldives packages are designed around comfort, seclusion, and effortless indulgence from the moment you arrive.

Beyond the Trip Itself

Relax Getaways goes beyond simply booking travel. Our International Air Ticketing service takes the hassle out of flight arrangements, while our MICE Tourism division supports corporate meetings, incentives, conferences, and events across Nepal and beyond. Whether you're planning a destination wedding in the Himalayas, a family holiday, a student excursion, or a fully bespoke luxury itinerary, our team handles every detail so you don't have to.
