I cannot thank the tour operator enough for the amazing experience of the Everest Base Camp trek. The team, was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, making the journey smooth and enjoyable. It was a dream come true to witness the beauty of the Himalayas. Highly recommended for adventure seekers!
Best trek yet! If you’re after creature comforts this isn’t for you; if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and explore the beautiful Annapurna range, meet locals, see some awesome-inspiring scenery, stay in rustic, basic accommodation but have some of the heartiest, tastiest meals and best hospitality ever, whilst taking on a challenging yet deeply rewarding trek, this is for you. Su, our tour leader, was exceptional, nothing was too much bother and he became the 11th member of our group. The crew and guides were fantastic, setting an achievable pace that meant we could chat as we walked or just enjoy the quiet as we took on a section of steeper steps, it all meant we were well-acclimatised for altitude and hardly had any effects whatsoever. Every day was different so there was never a dull moment and always something new to see - we even saw monkeys! The days spent in Kathmandu and Pokhara to top and tail the trip were the perfect intros and downtime to show two very different sides of Nepalese life. The food was fantastic - light, flavourful and satisfying. Have the momos and Dal Baht - you won’t regret it! Going during Nepalese Diwali (Tihar), made the experience even more magical to be honest. Fully recommend going then to get that added cultural experience as well! Just couldn’t have had a better two weeks away in the mountains (with a bit of culture thrown in) if I tried!

A wonderfully guided trek in a beautiful country. The variety of landscape, fauna and flora amazing. lovely tea house. my guide and porter looked after extremely well. took account of my abilities and checked my breathing was ok as we went on. The timing of starting out was perfect and we were the first people on the Thorang La to see the sunrise. He took account of my wishes and consulted me on the walk each day. I couldn't have asked for a more enjoyable experience.
Embarking on the Annapurna Circuit Trek guided by Dawa and supported by Porter Karma, was a life-changing experience that exceeded all expectations. From the moment we set foot on the trail to the final descent, every aspect of this trek was meticulously planned and executed with precision and care.
Dawa, our guide, was a true professional with an in-depth knowledge of the trail, local customs, and the surrounding mountains. His guidance was invaluable, ensuring our safety and well-being throughout the trek. He was not only a skilled trekker but also a wonderful companion, sharing stories and insights that enriched our journey.
Porter Karma, with his warm smile and unwavering dedication, made our trek even more memorable. Carrying our belongings with ease, Karma provided essential support and added a touch of genuine kindness to our experience. His presence was a true testament to the incredible teamwork and camaraderie fostered by Sherpa Expedition.
The service provided by this trekking company was nothing short of excellent. From the initial booking process to the final farewell, every detail was taken care of with efficiency and professionalism. The team ensured that we were well-equipped, well-fed, and well-rested throughout the trek, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of the Annapurna region.
The Annapurna Circuit itself was a mesmerizing blend of diverse landscapes, from lush forests and terraced fields to barren high-altitude deserts and snow-capped peaks. Each day brought new challenges and rewards, pushing our limits while inspiring a sense of awe and gratitude for the natural world.
Overall, I cannot recommend this company highly enough for anyone considering trekking in Nepal. Their commitment to providing exceptional service, paired with the expertise of guides like Dawa and porters like Karma, ensures an unforgettable and enriching adventure. The Annapurna Circuit Trek will forever hold a special place in my heart.
Such a wonderful trip! A big thank you to Nilam and Devi for making everything so seamless. Their attention to detail and warm approach made us feel like VIPs. Truly a five-star experience from start to finish. We will absolutely be back!

Explore leader: for Sri Lanka only satisfactory. Not easy to understand, didn't seem to feel part of the group, didn't join us for meals, a poor communicator (relative to past explore trips)
For the dhoni Maldives cruise: Moosa was excellent in every way.

We recently commenced on Manaslu Circuit trek with this agency, and we were thoroughly impressed by their professionalism and reliability.
Our journey to Nepal was between 12th to 28th May, 2023. It was our fourth visit to Nepal and prior to this trek, we had already experienced the Everest Base Camp (EBC), Annapurna Base Camp (ABC), and Kanchenjunga treks.
Our 15-day adventure on the Manaslu Circuit was truly a blessing, filled with exciting experiences. Despite the growing popularity of this trail, we found it to be refreshingly less crowded compared to the commercial routes leading to Everest and Annapurna base camps.
We successfully completed our Manaslu journey with the invaluable assistance of our guide and our porter.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to the entire team for their generous support during our visit to Nepal. Rest assured, we are already looking forward to our next trip to this amazing country.
