Work With Purpose

We are committed to best practices as a business, environmentally, with our customers, our team and our suppliers

Mountaineerz Leisure and Adventure Pvt Ltd has been arranging ‘experiential’ holidays to the Western Himalayas since 2010 and have added new destinations this year. YOLO is our new brand. We are committed to best practices as a business, environmentally, with our customers, our team, our agents and our suppliers. Our clients experience the destination in a way that most never will. We all love what we do because we do what we love and take enormous pride in the success of the company; our team loyalty is a testament to this. Based in the lap of the Greater Himalayas, we know well how to work hard and party hard – there is never a dull moment!

We are a small, fast-paced team, and you will enjoy a lot of variety at work. You should have good IT skills, be well organised with a flexible, can-do approach to work, and a strong ability to use initiative. You must also have a bright, warm, happy and helpful character. We also pride ourselves in our confidence in speaking on the phone with good etiquette and plenty of charm, so this is an invaluable skill to hold! Attention to detail is essential; our clients come from all over the world and expect their travel planning to be as enjoyable, seamless and perfect as their time on holiday.

Meet our current team of YOLO tour guides

The Role

Our tours come in two distinct styles:

• Active Adventures- fast-paced, adrenaline-filled and active.
• Laid-back Adventures- a more relaxed pace with an emphasis on culture and sightseeing.

YOLO Guides are expected to deliver both experiences to guests.

No matter which tour style you lead, we are passionate about the fantastic experience delivered to our guests, requiring the highest level of dedication and professionalism from all our team.

In return, we invest considerable time and effort into developing people into our guiding roles.

Our customers come from all over the world and across a wide spectrum of ages and backgrounds. But what they have in common is that they are all here to relax, unwind and enjoy their holidays.

Most of our tours last between 5-12 days. It is hard work and you will be away from home, but it is also great fun, a healthy way of life and very rewarding.

Plus the pay is OK too. (Season runs from mid-March to the end of October).
