A Himalayan Retreat for Your Community, Run by People Who Actually Live Here.
If you run a yoga studio, a coaching practice, a corporate wellness program, or a specialty agency — and you have an audience asking about a Himalayan retreat — this page describes how the partnership works.
Who this page is for
Three kinds of partner. That's it.
If you don't fit one of these, the partnership conversation will not work and we'd rather you know on this page than after a discovery call.
01
Yoga studios, men's groups, coaching practices
Your community trusts you and has been asking — or you have been considering — whether to add a Himalayan retreat to your offerings. You need a Nepal partner who handles the mountain so you can handle your community.
02
Corporate wellness + leadership programs
Annual offsites, donor expeditions, or research-team logistics. You need clear scope, clear pricing, and risk-management documentation that survives an internal procurement review.
03
Adventure / specialty travel agencies
You sell multi-country itineraries and need a Nepal ground partner you can put in front of your most demanding clients without flinching. You care more about delivery than commission.
The Partnership Model
Journey-Plus: a fixed chassis with modular slots.
Our B2B product is called Journey-Plus. It is a fixed logistical chassis with modular programming slots. It is not a discounted Transformation; it is structurally different — designed for partners running their own community on top of our operations.
LHJ controls — non-negotiable
The on-trail experience.
- Trek route + daily distances. Built around altitude acclimatization, not workshop schedules. Safety dictates the route.
- Lodge sequence + booking. We select and pre-book every lodge based on hygiene, location, and capacity. Partners do not swap unvetted lodges into the sequence.
- Safety protocols + guide authority. Two-Tier Altitude Protocol, twice-daily SpO₂ monitoring, mandatory descent decisions, and evacuation activation remain under the head guide. Partner programming never overrides a safety decision.
- Porter logistics + ethical standards. Porter ratios, load limits, gear issuance, and wage rates are LHJ's operational domain.
Partner controls — modular slots
Everything client-facing.
- Morning sessions. A 45–60 minute block before the group departs each trekking day for your programming — yoga, meditation, group discussion, journaling, breathwork.
- Evening sessions. After the group arrives at the day's lodge and has rested, an evening block for your programming. We coordinate dinner timing around it.
- Rest days. Built-in acclimatization days are yours to shape — workshops, excursions, extended sessions. We provide the logistical base and step back.
- Group framing + branding. You brand the retreat under your own name. We operate as your ground logistics partner — not as a co-branded experience, unless both parties agree otherwise.
Safety + risk management
The part you cannot afford to get wrong.
The part of the partnership you cannot afford to get wrong is the part where a client ends up at 4,500m with their SpO₂ dropping. Safety is identical across all tiers — and that applies to Journey-Plus as well. Your retreat clients receive the same pulse oximeter checks, the same supplemental oxygen, the same guide authority, and the same helicopter evacuation protocol as any direct LHJ client. There is no B2B tier where we cut corners to fit a wholesale price.
- Twice-daily SpO₂ + heart-rate monitoring above 3,500m, logged in the Daily Trail Log.
- Two-Tier Altitude Protocol with specific numeric thresholds at SpO₂ 80–84% and below 80%.
- Supplemental oxygen on every group. Pre-arranged helicopter evacuation. Satellite phone with 24/7 Kathmandu connectivity above 4,000m.
- The head guide has absolute descent authority. A client who resists is informed, not consulted.
If your participant needs to descend on day 7, our guide initiates descent. You do not need to mediate. You do not need to negotiate the schedule with the group. That conversation is ours. The full protocol is published at /safety; a B2B PDF version is available on request — the document you can share with your participants and your insurance provider before the trek begins.
Partner protections
Three commitments, in writing.
Retreat leaders are betting their reputation on us. We take three specific things seriously.
- Non-solicitation. LHJ does not market directly to your clients during the trek or after. We do not collect their emails for our list. We do not follow them on Instagram during the trek to convert them post-return. Your community is your asset. This is in the partnership agreement in writing.
- Your brand leads. The retreat is sold, marketed, and delivered under your name. LHJ appears in the safety documentation, the insurance forms, and the post-trip acknowledgments if you choose — otherwise we are the ground operator and nothing more.
- Operational transparency with your participants. Before the trek begins, your participants receive the LHJ safety protocol, the Kathmandu pre-trek session briefing, and the guide's Guardian Profile. We do not hide behind your brand when their safety is at stake — we tell them what we do and why.
The familiarisation trek
The FAMtrek isn't a junket. It's the interview.
We invite qualified B2B prospects on a subsidized Familiarization Trek. Five to seven days, same protocol as a paying trek. By the end you will know whether our judgment matches your standards. We will know whether you sell the way we operate.
If you meet all five criteria, a FAM invitation comes after an initial Zoom call with the CEO. If you don't meet all five, we don't extend one — this is honesty, not judgment. The FAM Trek is allocated on conversion probability, not aspiration.
What qualifies a prospect for a FAM invitation
- You have hosted at least one multi-day group experience (retreat, workshop series, or group trip) and can describe the specifics.
- You have a verifiable community of 500+ engaged members — an email list, an active membership, a studio roster, or equivalent.
- You can articulate a specific plan for marketing a Himalayan retreat to your audience.
- You are financially capable of committing deposits and managing group payments on your side.
- Your brand positioning is aligned with LHJ's philosophy — presence over conquest, no performative wellness, no “amenity-first trophy trek” framing.
Pricing transparency
Numbers come on the call, not the page.
We disclose the wholesale structure on the discovery call, not on this page. Public numbers make our partners' retail pricing harder to defend.
On a 30-minute Zoom we walk through wholesale per tier, a worked margin example for a typical retreat, the payment schedule, and the cancellation terms. Schedule the call below.

Honest startup framing
A new agency with twenty years behind it.
LHJ launched in 2026. We do not have 2,000 TripAdvisor reviews and we are not going to fake them to close a B2B deal. What we have is a documented operational framework no agency with 2,000 reviews has ever published, a CEO with 20+ years inside Nepal's trekking industry, guides with 15+ years on the specific routes we operate, and the same Clinical-Grade Risk Management protocol whether you pay wholesale or retail. We compete on operational competence, not on accumulated reputation.
