"We had this great trek Makalu Base Camp trek with me and my husband here in Nepal, we joined with the group during this trek as i found this trekking region very different and unique than the other trekking regions here in Nepal as it provided the best views of Himalaya's, Mountains, flora and fauna,local people culture and their daily live hood. Our guide Lakpa Bhote was also a great experienced guide who was very helpful to us in every trail and path of this trek as he elaborated us that this region consists of 30 types of rhododendrons, 48 types of orchids with variety of tress and herbs.We found this trekking very much interesting as the trail were very fresh with great geographical and biological diversity between local people and flora and fauna, we also saw the outstanding great views of Sagarmatha(Everest),Lhotse,Baruna che,Kanchenjunga Himalayan ranges smiling back to you with many other ranges of Himalayas from the Sipten-La view point. As we reached the Makalu Base Camp we encountered the great lake on the foothills of Makalu as we thought this lake is made of the Himalayan glaciers of the Makalu as this lake color was as white as the Milk. This Makalu Base Camp also provided us the great view of many lakes with many mountain ranges and we suggest this trek for those travelers who are seeking for the great trek with quite environment and great natural views.
So as a whole we are satisfied with this trek and want to thank the whole local operator family for organizing this perfect trek for us and hope to have another great trek here in Nepal next year with you guys."

Base Camp. Two little syllables that conjure up dreams as immense and powerful as the Himalayas themselves. This 15-day trekking trip is your chance to take on the challenge of reaching the mountaineer's base camp and gain an insight into the world-renowned Sherpa culture. You’ll cross glaciers and broad plains, traverse valleys and climb high passes – discovering both the majesty of the mountains and your own potential. Embrace the sense of freedom that comes with leaving cell service behind for card games in basic (but cosy) teahouses. Plus, Intrepid partners with local mountaineering and porter welfare programs, so you can trek easier knowing that while our porters are taking care of you, there’s someone looking out for them. This is a challenging trip and involves difficult trekking at high altitudes, but the whole experience can summed up in two syllables – worth it.

All of the porters, Ganesh, Yam, and Tek was amazing. They made our trek awesome and it was hard to say goodbye. We all had a really good time together. They were genuine, fun, helpful. At one point Tek needed to walk behind with a guy that had knee pain and Yam took great care of the group with safety, humor and interesting stories about our surroundings

Discover sacred culture and incredible natural landscapes as you venture deep into Tamang hinterland along the quiet Tamang Heritage Trail (restricted until 2004). On this 15-day trek, you’ll explore the wilds of Langtang National Park, uncover surprisingly verdant midlands and stay in villages that will teach you about the local culture. Connect with locals, share stories and fill your days with exhales (both in exhaustion and in awe). All this, paired with the soaring views of Manaslu Massif, Ganesh, Langtang and Jugal Himal. This trek is perfect for the adventurous and active traveller looking for something different well off the tourist trail.

I enjoyed every minute of this trip. The local staff (Gum K.C. our tour leader, and Chowang our sherpa leader, and all 5 of the porters) made the trip an amazing experience.
I had never been to Nepal or to high altitude so it was a challenge for me (at age 64) but I would most definitely do it all again in a heartbeat.

The Annapurna Circuit Trek with Tilicho Lake ranks among the most illustrious treks you can take in Nepal. It promises adventure, sights, and culture.
In this 15-dat journey, you will get a rare perspective of Annapurna (8,097 m), Dhaulagiri (8,167 m), Manaslu (8,163 m), Machhapuchhre (6,993 m) and Tukuche (6,920), among many other peaks. The other highlight of this trip is the stunning Tilicho (4,919 m), world's highest elevation lake. Traversing the Thorong La Pass (5,416 m) also promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, despite being one of the most challenging part of the journey.
Throughout the trek, we will see a variety of sceneries and zones that range from subtropic to alpine terrains, encounter numerous ecosystems, and unique cultures of mountain communities. We will travel past mountain streams, rhododendron forests, mountain valleys, and gorges.
See the itinerary section for more details.
I was initially nervous about taking the leap and joining a group tour as a solo female traveller. Having just arrived home from this trip, I realise that it was one of the best experiences of my life to date. I have made memories for life, gained valuable local experiences in two amazing countries which have challenged preconceptions and experienced new friendships with like minded fellow travellers.

The itinerary is very well thought out with lots to see and do. Everyday had a highlight and the Nepalese are so friendly and inviting. The views of the Himalayas in Nagarkot and Pokhara were stunning. The hotels were in excellent locations throughout. There are walks for those who want to and options for those who don't. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone, regardless of physical ability. Our tour leader, Su, was excellent and worked tirelessly to ensure our safety, enjoyment and general happiness. He is the best leader I have had out of some 27 tours. This is Explore's strong point - they know how to pick and train tour leaders and Su was the best of the best.
