The Story Behind

He says, “Mainly there is the problem for tourist who wants to visit Nepal as they cannot book the hotel as they want easily via online and they cannot even look the beauty of Nepal through any sources as there is very less information available on the internet. So, we were promoting the beauty of Nepal by using different methods like video, photos etc. on that phase we also started yartiyo.com.”
While sharing his idea of Yatriyo to his close friends, he got positive response from his friends to implement in Nepal and gained the confidence to initiate.
