Baburam Gurung CEO/ FOUNDER
Administration
Baburam Gurung, our CEO and Founder, is responsible for the overall company leadership. He excels in handling public relations and maintaining strong, healthy relationships with our guests.
Mr. Gurung’s journey began in the picturesque Chichila Rural Municipality in the Sankhuwa Sava district, nestled within the Mt. Makalu region—the world’s fifth-highest mountain. His roots extend to the deepest Arun valley (Tumlingtar) on Earth.
In 1996, Gurung stepped into the tourism industry as a porter, often carrying loads heavier than himself. His determination led him to pursue training and language classes. Eventually, he enrolled in an open Tourism University in the Nepal Himalaya, where he graduated with practical expertise in tourism management.
Over time, he actively participated in treks and tours, serving as a porter, Sherpa guide, and tour guide. His extensive travels have taken him across Nepal, covering every trekking path in this breathtaking country.
More than a decade and a half of experience in guiding numerous Himalayan treks and expeditions in Nepal has shaped Baburam Gurung, our CEO and Founder. His journey extends beyond Nepal’s borders, with visits to Malaysia, Singapore, Tibet, the Czech Republic, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. These diverse experiences have finely honed his hospitality skills.
In 2009 AD, Gurung’s hands-on involvement in Nepal’s Adventure Tourism industry led him to establish Advent Himalaya Treks. His mission? To provide quality services to trekkers and explorers, allowing them to create unforgettable memories. Today, Advent Himalaya Treks stands as a well-established company, guiding people from around the world during every trekking season.
Gurung is renowned for offering expert advice and tailoring trips to match the unique tastes and preferences of each client. His commitment extends beyond business success; he actively contributes to community initiatives aimed at improving living standards, fostering economic growth, and enhancing education in remote areas of Nepal—especially in the Chinchilla and Makalu regions. As a true humanitarian, Gurung believes in giving back, allocating a percentage of the business profit exclusively for social work.
His dedication extends to professional associations as well. Gurung served as a Central Executive Member of the Trekking Agencies Association of Nepal (TAAN) from 2017 to 2019 AD. Additionally, he continues to contribute as a Central Executive Member of the Gurung Tourism Entrepreneurs Association of Nepal (GTEAN).
With warmth and enthusiasm, Gurung eagerly awaits the opportunity to welcome you to a rewarding and challenging trek in the mighty Himalayas.
