I recently completed my Kailash Manasarovar Yatra with Max Holidays, and it was a truly life-changing and spiritual experience. The team managed permits, visas, and logistics very smoothly, which made the entire journey stress-free. Our guides and support staff were knowledgeable, caring, and ensured safety and comfort throughout, even during the challenging high-altitude trek.
Accommodation and food in some remote areas were basic, but given the tough terrain, the arrangements were well handled. Long travel days were tiring at times, yet the staff’s constant support and encouragement made the journey easier.
Overall, Max Holidays delivered an excellent experience and created the right balance between spiritual focus and practical arrangements. I would strongly recommend them to anyone planning this sacred pilgrimage.
Note - It's my personnel request, while returning back to Nepalgunj would have been organized with lunch or snacks before leaving to Lucknow. Otherwise you have made a fantastic arrangement.

We did Kailash Yatra through max holidays this July.It was a very divine experience .As the Yatra has begun after a few years it’s difficult for everyone involved ,but sakshi was patient enough to answer our queries .After being on the tour we realised most of the things are difficult to manage in those regions including permits,visas ,food and travel itself .A special mention to our Nepali guide especially Dhan n Narayanji ..u were patient with us all through the journey.We had a lovely Darshan and a great Parikrama .Not thee perfect arrangements by max holidays but now we know better after completing it..it’s not about perfection but the joy of the journey that it was .. one to cherish lifelong .Thank you max holidays.
I had the blessing to undertake the Shri Kailash Mansarovar Yatra 2025 with my wife and a close friend through Max Holidays in the month of Shravan. It was a truly spiritual and unforgettable journey.
The arrangements were smooth—travel, accommodation, meals, and safety checks were well managed. Of course, there were some challenges on the way, but we were well informed about them in advance, and they are naturally part of this sacred journey.
A heartfelt thanks to Nimisha and Sakshi from Max Holidays for their wonderful support and constant guidance, which made the experience far more comfortable and memorable.
Overall, it was a life-changing Yatra, and I would strongly recommend Max Holidays to anyone planning this divine pilgrimage.
