Customer Reviews
Manaslu Circuit
I recently completed the Manaslu Circuit Trek with this local tour operator, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From the start, their professionalism and attention to detail were evident. They helped organize all permits, transportation, and accommodations seamlessly, making the trip stress-free. Our guide Binod was very knowledgeable about the region’s culture, history, and landscapes. He ensured our safety at higher altitudes and was always attentive to our needs. The porter was equally kind and hardworking, making the trek even more enjoyable. The trek itself was breathtaking, with stunning views of the Manaslu range, charming villages, and a rich blend of nature and culture. The agency’s choice of tea houses was excellent, offering comfortable stays and great food despite the remoteness of the area. I recommend this operator for anyone planning the Manaslu Trek. Their expertise, friendly staff, and excellent service made this one of the most memorable adventures of my life.
Trip of a lifetime
My bucket list item is now crossed off! The trek itself was incredible. The Manaslu region was diverse in climates (warm, dry valleys - to lush rainforest - to snow capped peaks) and there was a tonne of wildlife to see and experience. Definitely more affordable than other companies but still got the 5 star treatment.
Amazing trek, amazing team
Had an amazing trek with Lion Tours and guide Binod. Any time I had an issue they had the solution. They also kept it adaptable to what I wanted to do each day. The trek is stunning but the team, and particularly Binod the guide, really made it special. Can't wait to come back for another trek.
Manaslu Trek - 12 days
Great trip! Bishnu is an amazing guide! The Manaslu area is beautiful and the locals are super friendly. The bus trips are long but an interesting experience. It's one of the cheaper Manaslu trekking trips which means you sometimes need to supplement the food yourself. Overall great experience. Thank you
