The service we provide should be of every kind. It does not mean that you have to take a lot of money at once. We have provided many types of services. As a result, it has been able to attract all kinds of tourists. which we have done. After paying the money, the tourists should be given good service facilities.

The service we provide should be of quality . We will start our service from 500 rupees . Tourists who come in this way spend 50 to 60 thousand rupees in a day. It would be better to cover all types of services . Cliff is as elegant and comfortable as it is now. But we have come to this situation after overcoming many challenges. 

It was definitely not easy to start this job . Even before there was adventure tourism in Nepal. Not that it didn't . Accordingly, we have started the adventure tourism work that we have to do it differently and in a bigger way than what others have done. While doing a new job, I had to face new challenges . We had started work that we could organize in 3 years . But it took 6 years to finish. While building it, we did not expect much from the government.  I didn't think that the government would look at

and do it. My team and I had a dream. Then we focused on how to fulfill that dream. We worked within the government's policy and rules. We decided to build it in a new way to attract tourists. I thought that tourists can be attracted only if something new happens in adventure tourism. Now we have built a model bridge in Asia. 

The natural beauty that we have, should be put to use . Then we came with a new idea . We have built a model bridge in Asia and conducted various adventure tourism activities. When we were about to start the business by doing this, we were facing the middle of covid . At that time we were very scared . Now it will be ruined . I thought that starting a new business meant that the house farming would end. We took a big risk and operated the business . But at that time there was a crowd of domestic tourists in the Kushma market of Parbat. So we were amazed at the enthusiasm of people coming to Cliff. 

If you walk with a good idea, you will be successful . We started the service with bungee jump, swing . Now we have extended more services . We have built the world's largest swing, the world's second largest bungee, the world's largest and longest cycling, the world's largest and longest sky cafe . We are starting the tallest and longest Mega Troll in the world . We want to do something new and better. We are trying to make Nepal known to the world as an adventure destination. 

We started construction of the cliff so that 60 percent of foreigners and 40 percent of domestic tourists come. In the beginning, domestic tourists became a big help for us. In the future, the movement of foreign tourists will also increase . Now 30 percent of foreign tourists bungee . The goal is to reach 60 percent in the future. Therefore, the government policy rules to be made now should be tourism-friendly.
