"We've just come back from Manaslu and Tsum Valley trek organised by Nest Adventure. Sandip, manager of the company, was very responsive from first contact by email and he answered all our questions before our trip and prepared the trek for us.
We had very experienced local guide KP and two amazing and funny porters Krishna and Amrit, who worked very hard to make our trek enjoyable. Thanks again guys, dhanyabatt."

"I could not have wished for a better experience :) My guide Netra was very helpful and dedicated, always trying to get me the best room in each guest house and in general making the trip as great as possible. During the trek I met two other guides from Nest (Sandeep and NT) and they were obviously just as dedicated, so I guess you can't go wrong with this company.

The trek itself is stunning, especially from Namrung onwards. I ended up doing the trek in nine days (including two days of transport) and I am really glad I did so. It's certainly possible if you're a reasonably experienced hiker. The advantages: less days away, a more demanding trek (it can be disappointing to only walk a couple of hours on a day) and you can skip Dharamsala, where you sleep with 4 people in a small room and in general it looks quite scruffy. I also don't know how much the acclimatise days make a difference: some people take a couple and still become sick at the Larke pass, while others take none and are fine. I would recommend doing it in November when it is much quieter and it's still not that cold at night (if you're used to Dutch winters). During the day it can be quite hot even above 4.000m, definitely bring good sunscreen and something to protect your head against the sun.

The company itself was very responsive and lend me a great sleeping bag. If I come back to Nepal and would need a guide or permit, Nest would be my choice again!"

"NEST was kind enough to have Harry be our guide. We will try with any next trip to book him again. He is knowledgeable about nature, mammals, the rural life, culture, religions, you name it. It was also very handy that he had done the trek multiple times before and therefore knew the exact distances and what to expect on the trek. He briefed us daily on the next stretch. Harry's english is excellend and we could discuss all sorts of topics and ask him anything. We highly recommend him for this trek!"

"All in all Nest adventure did a good job. you get all information you need in advance and the price is also nice ;).
And Milan our Guide did also a perfect Job. He is a young, motivated funny guide who knows alot about the manaslu area. He is also very helpful when it comes to health problems.I got knee problems after 4 or 5 days and Milan care about me very well. Many thanks to you man.

So all in all i really recommend the Manaslu circle trek, so beautiful and still not to crowded as Annapurna or everest.

I would like to thank Sandip, Milan and other NEST team for well organising the manaslu trek."

Our guides are also well-equipped to provide first aid in an emergency situation.
