I used Touch Kailash team’s service to visit Kailash Mansarovar by overland in May 2018. I had been planning for this trip from August 2017. I have posed all my questions and doubts to Mr Anil Bhatt from August 2017 till May 2018 and he answered and clarified all my doubts with extra ordinary patience.
Not a question went unanswered by him. Thanks for your patience, reliability and honesty Mr Anil Bhatt!!
My sincere thanks go to our guide Mr Santosh and his team mates (Thakur Adhikari, Ghaman Ghale, Kajiman Kumal, Bhothnath Nepal). As per his name “Santosh”, he tried his best and succeeded in bringing happiness in the face of all our groupmates. When it comes to hospitality, no one can beat Touch Kailash team members. They always make sure that all the group members are feed, sheltered and happy. I really wondered if it’s possible to provide such mouth-watering foods in remote places. It’s really not an easy task to offer such wonderful services in high altitudes but they did it. Hats off to Touch Kailash team!!! I was really amazed by the way they took care of all our groupmates during the kora. One can see Touch Kailash team mates waiting at respective distance during the kora to make sure all the groupmates are ok. Thanks for giving us such a wonderful and memorable experience.
If I ever get another opportunity to travel, I will make sure to use Touch Kailash service without any second doubt.

Trip insurance is important documents. Touch Kailash Travels and tours do not need your insurance policy for permit and visa confirmation. it is only for your secure and immergency. make sure your insurance cover travelling up to 5600 miter altitude and cover Emmergency rescue and Medical bills.
Oxygen level is less at higher altitudes. The inclement weather and high altitude induces certain illness generally not encountered over the plains. Headache, nausea, lassitude, lethargy, breathlessness, general uneasiness [malaise], high irritability, light loss of balance, disorientation, incoherence and insomnia are a few. It is common to all irrespective of the age, sex and physical fitness. Gradual acclimatization is the best answer. Tranquilizers, sleeping dose and strong anti-biotic must be avoided. Some of symptoms indicate that the body mechanism is readjusting to new environments. The best idea is deliberately slow down all the activities and follows the following rules:
