Founding Story

In 2018, owner Ram Karki partnered with his son Pradeep Karki, and Connections Nepal was born.

MEET THE TEAM

Ram Karki

Owner & Founder

Born in the Ganesh Himal region of Nepal, Ram has been trekking through Nepal and Tibet since he was 15. By the age of 21, he became a full-time trekking guide, and for the past 28 years, he has successfully managed his own trekking business. Ram’s profound love for Nepal is deeply rooted in his comprehensive understanding of its culture, politics, religion, history, and environment. This passion has fueled his intellectual curiosity about other cultures and people, as well as his near-fluent command of the English language.

Pradeep Karki

Guide & Co/owner

Pradeep Karki was raised in Kathmandu, though his family hails from Kattike, a remote village in Dhading. Growing up, he learned the ins and outs of the trekking industry from his father, Ram Karki, who has over 35 years of experience in the field. Recently, Pradeep completed his studies in Travel and Tourism and is thrilled to embark on his own journey in the trekking business. His vision is to share Nepal’s rich culture and stunning mountain trails with the world, while also contributing to local economic development.

Connections Nepal Treks and Expeditions’ goal is to connect you to local communities and cultures in one of the most beautiful countries in the world. We offer a variety of services from trekking, jungle safari tours, and white-water rafting to mountain flights and sightseeing in Kathmandu, but most importantly, our greatest service is introducing you in a meaningful way to our amazing country and her people.
