The travel world is slowly opening up again. In many places, tourism is picking up. During the last 12 months, the hosts of MyNepal.online have taken you on a virtual trip to Nepal during the corona pandemic. We have achieved a great result. Our hosts have been able to provide an income for themselves and their community. Slowly travel restrictions to visiting Nepal are being lifted. It is therefore time to focus on welcoming guests ‘live’ in Nepal.

Saturday July 11 I participated in the virtual class of the Bardia National park. I had no idea if I could expect much from it but it was fun beyond expectations. Apart from the fact that the animals are always a nice subject, the interaction and the whole setup of the tour made it extra fun. It is highly recommended.
The cooking workshop is very nice to do! The instructions you receive are easy to follow in combination whit Ragobhir on the other hand to help and show you how to prepare everything. It is a good way to bring Nepal food to you‘re hometown kitchen.
Just did this tour and I really liked it! Many different subjects. Would definitely recommend it. Fun quiz questions as well. Thank you!
We really enjoyed going on this tour. Learning about farming and the tools used, watching the landscape and the animals was a great experience. All our questions were answered at once. Sometimes the transmission was a bit unsteady and wobbly. However, I would strongly recommend the tour for everybody who wants to get an insight into life and living conditions in the Terai in Nepal.
A virtual tour in real time. Like I was there! Never realized that planting rize was so intensive. The tour gives a good impression of the proces and farming. The guide has a lot of knowledge. I can recommend you to book this tour or book another tour to experience the daily live.
The Farming Tour I did was virtual, but was close to reality. I know this area but never was there in the hot wet summertime. So I could never see the harvest of the rice. This was a new view to me and the guide was telling in detail what happened. I put questions and within one minute they ware answered. As I know from reality the guides are very gentle and hospital. I am going to do another tour and hope more and more people will.
It was an interesting and beautiful tour over the rice fields. The guide told us several things about these fields, like processing and the farmers. You see the locals working on the field. A good impression of the daily life in Nepal. It’s a very nice idea to book this virtual tour.
The tour really shows you the agriculture live and how intensive it is to Make the ground to be prepared before the rice plants can be planted and above all it Will be Rice as we know. The tour really shows you the intensive way and hard work of the people. It was worth seeing. And the guides are doing a good job to show the local live in Bardia. It would be Nice to see the harvest time.
The online class is very enjoyable. It has just the right balance between some practical and general information on tigers and Nepal. The highlights are the video’s showing the spotted tigers. It felt as a near-live experience even. Well done and therefore highly recommended! The tour guide did a good jib.
Great that you do this and think in solutions in this difficult time! Very nice to see!
It was very nice to join the tour 😃

Sonja Rusticus and Budhi Darlami are living in West Nepal where they run their own guesthouse Bardia Homestay and organize jungle, countryside tours and treks. Helmich Riezebos is owner of a tour operator travel Nepal in the Netherlands and organizes custom made journeys to Nepal for Dutch travelers.
For many years we have been working together to give our mutual customers a unique travel experience in Nepal, and to share our knowledge and passion about Nepal. We deeply care about the future of the local people and the communities in Nepal with whom we co-operate.
Due to the corona pandemic, international travel to Nepal came to a standstill and many people who are working in the tourism sector in Nepal (almost 1,3 million people) have lost their jobs. Usually no job means: no income.
Therefore MyNepal.online connected last year Nepalese tourist guides online with travelers who felt connected with or wanted to experience Nepal virtually. We offered virtual tours and classes to travelers who wanted to learn more about the nature and culture of Nepal and who felt committed to support the local people and community. Local hosts were happy to share their knowledge and generate some income during the corona pandemic. We succeeded in our mission!
