About Nilotus
Based in McLeodganj, at the foot of the Dhauladhar range, we run small-group Himalayan treks every week and plan holidays across India and abroad, from a lakeside palace in Udaipur to a Nile cruise in Egypt.
Our people
Every trip has a named person in charge, not a call centre.

Groups
A lot of our trekking is with groups: college clubs, school trips, offices and families travelling together. We sort out permits, transport, food and safety briefings, and send one clear per-head quote.
