The Yatra to Mt. Kailas shall always remain a remarkable journey that will echo through time in my many lives. On a social level: it was possible only because of the impeccable organizing capabilities of the group support staff. Vaishali: the founder and team leader of the organization behaved like a support staff herself and hence created an aura of togetherness and amicablity that permeated throughout the Yatra. Every part and moment of the Yatra was like a well choreographed dance and most humbly executed. On a physical level: there was a constant watch on every Yatri for pulse and oxygen. Daily briefings started with a physical warmup session-EVERYDAY! On a spiritual level: the day started with a prayer and Pooja. Throughout the bus ride there was Shiva information being generated. Vaishali did not just take us on a trek to Kailas-she took our souls on a life fulfilling journey to meet our Creator. I am grateful for this opportunity!

It was my dream to come to Kailas since I was a little girl. It is the Abode of Lord Shiva and every time I visit Kailas I feel his presence. My first experience of the call from Lord Shiva was when my daughter was born, it was a ‘mannat’ that if she is born safely, I will visit Kailasji and 3 months later I was at HIS doorstep. Feeling his presence, in my body and soul & and an experience that keeps on bringing me back to his abode again and again. In my field of work I have travelled around the world and has seen many beautiful places, my very first concern to travel to Kailas was that it had to be in a group and I was not very comfortable with it but then I met Vaishaliji, she is made of a ball of energy and it is like the whole energy of Kailas is in her. I couldn’t have been more blessed for such a beautiful journey and been taken care by SKY team right from the start of the trip. They took care of all small details of getting yatri acclimatized to weather, to making sure everyone remains healthy all along the yatra. During the entire yatra they have served us Hot fresh food made by SKY team. I still believe it is Lord Shiva who sent Vaishaliji to me, to take me to HIS abode. I was even more blessed that my husband was also with me on this yatra. Thank you for this beautiful experience.

I feel blessed as since 2002, I am getting a calling from Lord Shiva, the divine Bhole Baba every year and till today not a year has gone by without a pilgrimage to this Holy Land. The magic & mystic of Holy Mountain once absorbed, remains within forever. The power, the divinity and the spiritual pull is too strong that you have to return again and again for HIS darshan and just once is not enough. The most memorable moment for me was during the Inner Parikrama of Mt. Kailas in 2011, I consider it as one of the most difficult journey. Walking on rough terrain at 18000 ft height, I was able to reach and then climb upto 20,000 ft to the Saptrishi caves, to touch, bow down and embrace this Gigantic pyramid. As Mount Kailas is Lord Shiva Himself, who blessed me with Abhishek prasad of Gangajal from his Jata. How I reached there is a mystery as I had no strength or was in a shape to take this journey. It was only my Strong desire and unwavering faith in Bhole Baba made this yatra a reality for me, as HE held my hand and walked me the path to his abode.

I have travelled in all the continents of the world, but this is really something special. What is amazing about this is that you find all of it in one place. Going to high altitude is tough but, the way Vaishali and her team has been helping us gradually to move from one level to another has been so good that the gradual transformation, from the height of 5000 ft to 16000ft has been done without any trouble. The best part has been, the way we have been looked out with so much of care & love, that we feel if things are not possible to be done, I love mother nature & anyone who wants to be close to nature, has to come here. I would insist that this is the place to come. The best part about SKY is that they any commercial intentions of making money, their intention is to satisfy the needs of yatri’s. Once your goal shifts from making money to helping yatri’s everything changes and that is what team SKY has been doing. It has been such a fantastic experience; I will not recommend any other group over SKY.

I went on a trek to Mount Kailas in Tibet. To reach Mt Kailas we had to go through Kathmandu(1400 Metres), Nepal & Flying to Lhasa(3656 Metres), Tibet stay for 2 days and fly to Ngari Gunsa Airport (ALI ) to reach our Base camp in Darchen at an altitude of 4,575 metres. Our trip was for 15 days as it required lot of preparation for acclimatisation. The reason I specifically mentioned the Altitudes above is unlike any other trips when we travel does not require your body to be prepared. But in this case you need to prepare your body and mind, as you will be travelling from an altitude of 505 Metres (Hyderabad) to 6,638 Metres to reach Mt Kailas. From Darchen the Parikrama takes 3 days. Altitude, temperature and low oxygen makes the Parikrama difficult for people visiting from India. I had a great opportunity to travel along with My wife SWETHA TULLA and few of my very close friends who were all blessed. As there is a saying only those who have the purest of hearts can reach this near impossible terrain. It would not have been possible without my close friends Lakshmi Manchu, Taruna Patel ji and Vishali Patel ji and our Sherpas specifically Mamu bhiya with whom we travelled.  They kept us motivated to complete our Parikrama. SKY YATRA team was extremely professional and knew exactly what was required for our Journey. The Mount Kailas-Mansarovar journey bestowed on us blessings of God signified by the strength and majesty of the mountains, the calmness of waters, and the warmth of the simple human life which cannot be compared to anything else in the world. Irrespective of the varied religion beliefs, the noteworthy point is the dedication and humane spirit which unites people of different caste and ages while visiting the region. One is drawn to the simplicity of life and finds completeness in the harshest of terrain, trek and climate during the trip. This trip has transformed me entirely the way I see Life. My priorities in life have changed. This trip was something to do about myself that can be cherished all through my Life.

It was a phenomenal trip... Both Mukul and myself have had travelled with Vaishali to Kailas and Mansarovar 2007, Char Dham 2010, Amarnath and Vaishnavi Devi 2013 and Kailas and Mansarovar again in 2014... Every trip was spiritually uplifting ... We had great darshans ... very friendly Co Yatris , and such a modest and accommodating staff....I would highly recommend going for yatras with Vaishali and Shree Karnali yatras....met wonderful people enroute and were blessed with decent weather..

The journey to Kailas Mansarovar for me is like being home where I have always been welcomed with open arms, warmth and love. This was my 3rd trip and 2nd time with SKY. SKY team makes you feel like family. The experienced Shivgan along with our Nandi maa Vaishali make the journey so comfortable, pleasant and peaceful. Travelling with them seems like Adi himself has sent them to ensure that we have a red carpet welcome to the Mandala. The team is very experienced and helpful. Without the Shivgan its impossible to complete the journey so easily. I recommend them to all those who want to go on this journey. You will not find anyone better than them. I only wish if the time would stop when am there and not pass away like a blink. Har har Mahadev

‘’My sisters and I went with Vaishali and SKY (Shree Kailas Yatra) for the first time last year (August/September 2014) for the Kailas Mansarovar Yatra. Our successful and soul satisfying Kailas Yatra was entirely down to the support and encouragement of the SKY team and Vaishali in Particular. Vaishali is a truly remarkable person – full of energy, enthusiasm, mentoring and leading the whole group as one. We all went as individuals – but came back as one big family. Every single day we think and reminisce about our Kailas Yatra … in fact we could not wait to go on another Yatra with SKY and Vaishali. The almighty answered our prayers and in September/October 2015 we were fortunate to go on the Char Dham Yatra. Needless to say the whole Yatra was absolutely brilliant – very well organised, excellent food, very devotional and underpinned by a religious and spiritual slant and totally awe inspiring. The very sweet memories of both our Yatra with SKY and Vaishali will remain with us for the rest of our lives. We look forward to performing further Yatras with SKY and Vaishali in the coming years.’’

Mesmerised, thrilled and ecstatic are few adjectives I would describe my Shri Kalash yatra. 9th may 2014 to 22nd may 2014 is the time I visited . Mesmerised with the beauty of Himalayan ranges of Nepal , Tibet and China. Thrilled with the heights which we crossed day after other from minimum to 19500 ft above see level. Ecstatic, delighted and awestruck while seeing the glimpse of Shri kailash and mansarover for the first time. Feeling of Divinity and continuous flow of blessings from kailashpati for 6 days. A life transformation journey. All this is possible because of vaishaliben and her team. The journey offers lot of surprises in timely food and beverages which adds to our delight , prayers that keeps us on the spiritual path and tremendous spirit of team karnali make the journey easy and soulful. I thank vaishaliben and her team with all my hearts. God Bless You all. Jai Kailas.

I and my Wife joined the Yatra in September 2014. It was so good. Vaishaliben and the team treat this Yatra as Spiritual with Both Morning and evening Prayers, Pranayam etc and takes personal interest in making sure that people are Happy and get what they came to achieve. Her enthusiastic and frequent "Aum Namah Shivay" to all still rings in our ears. Minimum difficulties that we faced were not at all attributable to them , but to external factors beyond any one's control. Her team mates are all so helpful and cheerful and work round the clock to make sure of everyone's comforts. Life time Memory.... A Big Thank you to the Team and say that YOU CANT FIND BETTER ORGANISERS TO GO TO KAILASHJI AND MANSAROVAR. AUM NAMAH SHIVAY Pankaj and Hina Barot, Botswana.

The Kailas Mansarovar Yatra with the SKY group was a once in a lifetime opportunity that I was lucky enough to get. It was like a dream come true. Vaishali and her staff Shiv Gan are very kind and noble to their service. They took utmost care of all the Yatris at every stage of the Yatra. From room to room food service, herbal tea every morning and night to combat weather conditions, to carrying our heavy luggage, to always have a medical kit handy, everything was taken care of. Vaishali’s spiritual nature and devotion makes the Yatra smooth, without any barriers. For me, one of the highlights of the Yatra was the dip in Mansarovar lake, which was a fear in everybody’s minds due to the Cold weather conditions; but was taken care of very well with necessary provisions like the poncho. In my opinion, Vaishali’s SKY tour is the best option for this Yatra. All the very best to the entire team. AUM NAMAH SHIVAY

Look no further! SKY team and Vaishaliji are committed with absolute devotion to give you a yatra (pilgrimage) of a lifetime, the experiences of which you will be narrating to your friends and family for years to come. Vaishaliji, throughout the trip is on a mission to ensure the safety, well being and fulfillment of every individual in the yatra. She doesn't ever cut corners on the Puja and the bhakti inspite of maintaining the hectic schedule. The personal attention and care is unparalleled to anything i have witnessed in other excursions. The entire team of smiling Shivgans is willing to go to any length to ensure your safety and satisfaction. Kailas Mansarovar can be a challenging yatra but this team makes it feel so much easier. I was a lone traveler i.e. i did not come with friends or family members but i did not feel left out at all, thanks to Vaishaliji and team. I have come back with great memories, made good friends, enjoyed sumptuous meals and had a great darshan of one of the most sacred places in this world. Our journey was so smooth that i cannot but help think that it had something to do with all the positive energy of the SKY team and strong faith and bhakti of Vaishaliji which then rubs on to everybody in the group. The Team works tirelessly and when i asked her how she( Vaishaliji)and the team does this 6 times a year almost non stop barely getting much rest-all she had to say was that "this gives them utmost santosh(satisfaction) which not many jobs/roles can provide in this world" . I think that says it all.
