Our expedition begins with an immersive exploration of the Nar Phu Valley, where we'll absorb the mountain's grandeur and the valley's vibrant culture. From there, we transition to the captivating mountain district of Manang, where the Annapurna segment of our journey awaits.

Travel to one of the most secluded valleys in the Himalayas during this 18-day, guided tour. A slice of paradise lodged between mountains, the Tsum Valley was opened to trekkers only recently and hardly sees foreigners even now. We will drive you from Kathmandu to Soti Khola after taking you on a sightseeing tour of Kathmandu.
Trek through the lower-lying areas of Gorkha district, past Machha Khola, Jagat, and Lakuwa to reach Chumling, your first stop in the Tsum Valley, which derives its name from the Tibetan “Beyul Kyimolung” which means "the Valley of Happiness".
Explore this beautiful, untouched region, see the magnificent Ganesh Himal and Mount Manaslu, and visit famous local monasteries like Mu Gompa and Rachen Gompa. Observe the life of the villagers whose primary occupation is cattle herding. Also take a trip to the cave where the famous Tibetan mystic Milarepa is said to have meditated before it is time to start your downhill journey to Soti Khola, following the gurgling Budhi Gandaki River.
The route to the valley diverts from the main Manaslu trail midway through the journey. This trek is ideal for those who want to visit one of the least explored areas in the Himalayas where life seems to be frozen in time and Buddhism binds the people together and guides their everyday activities.
We will drive you back to your hotel in Kathmandu after the trek is over. For more details, please go through the itinerary below.

The Upper Mustang trek leads you into the hidden kingdom of Mustang, also called Lo. The ultimate destination of this trek is Lo-Manthang, the capital of Upper Mustang. This medieval town is surrounded by a huge wall, and it not only offers its visitors beautiful views of the rugged landscape but also allows them to observe the Tibetan Buddhist culture that has been practiced in this region since many centuries ago.
In and around Lo-Manthang, hikers can discover ancient monasteries, Mani walls, Buddhist shrines, Gompas and Mandalas. Lo used to be a part of the Tibetan empire and you will see houses built in the Tibetan style with white washed walls.
Mustang is an arid, treeless land of monasteries. The best season is March to October, although Upper Mustang is in the rain shadow region of Nepal, meaning trekkers can also visit during the monsoon season. Several years ago, trekking used to be organized as camping or tenting treks. Now, the area is developing simple tea houses.
This isn’t your average island getaway. Start deep in Sumatra’s jungle where you’ll trek in search of wild orangutans, tube down jungle rivers, and sleep under the stars. Then swap boots for boards in Bali, with surf lessons in Canggu, sunrise hikes up Mount Batur, and homestay vibes in a traditional Balinese village. Cap it all off in dreamy Nusa Lembongan—think white sand, dramatic cliffs, and sunsets that hit different. Wild to chill and everything in between, this trip brings the full Indo experience.
