Nepal Tours in Winter

Thankyou to our great team for making our trip a success: Sanjay Lama Ang Dawa Sherpa (cook) Yem Rai (Sherpa Guide) Chandra Rai (Kitchen Hand) Bijay Magar (Porter) Nara Raj Magar (Porter) Thankyou for taking care of us, feeding us and getting us to AMA Dablam Base Camp and back.

My adult daughter and I had a memorable trip to EBC in December with World Expeditions and highly recommend the whole experience. Our group of four, were very well supported by an experienced group of Nepali guides, cook, kitchen boys and porters. Our leader – Bir Singh – was exceptional. He ensured everything went smoothly, from recommending “fleecy buffs”, dispensing medication, answering endless questions, to estimating the severity of earthquakes. He offered endless reassurance, always with a smile.

Annapurna Base Camp was absolutely amazing! As soon as we arrived in Kathmandu, we were picked up by the local tour operator. While in Kathmandu, we visited Boudhanath and explored Thamel. The hotel provided was clean, well-organized, and conveniently located. The journey to Annapurna Base Camp was breathtaking—a moderate trekking trail, stunning views, and top-notch service! Thank you!

Our Annapurna Dhaulagiri trek was one of our best family trips ever. While my husband and I had been higher altitude trekking in Nepal before, we wanted our kids to experience a less physically-demanding trek to introduce them to Himalayan trekking. This trip did not disappoint. The itinerary allowed for spectacular mountain vistas daily, the ecocamps and ecolodges were well located and the organisation of the trip perfect. Aside from the breathtaking scenery though, the most memorable aspect of the trip was our fantastic crew: We could not have asked for a better trek leader than Romy Tamang, who was so very knowledgeable, accommodating and engaging, our Sherpa Bhuvan who maintained a perfect pace and was so entertaining and patient, Bhakta our talented chef who made exceptional and nutritious meals that satisfied our hunger, our kitchen crew Dhuk and Pasang and our porters Kamaan, Subash, Bir and Suman who took such good care of our belongings and us. And because of the awesome experiences they had on this trek with this team, I’m grateful that my kids want to return for future treks in Nepal.

I went solo in low season (Jan) and it was amazing! It was cold at night, but i had the trail and all of the lodges to myself. That's how I like it. If you prefer a more solitary experience, this is the time to do it. Also, blue skies the entire time. I did 12 days that included Poon Hill and Anapurna Base Camp. Ramesh was my guide and he was the best! He really knows his stuff took care of everything. Such a great person too. I had been wanting to do this for 20 years and I was not disappointed. Seriously the trip of a lifetime. This outfit was recommended to me by word-of-mouth, and I'm telling everyone who will listen to come to Nepal and get into the mountains with these guys!

I took the family of four (kids 12 &15) on this tour and it was extremely well organised and enjoyable throughout. All the elements of the trip such as accommodation, food, equipment and staff were above expectations and always friendly and helpful. Our guide for the duration was Nima Tamang and you couldn't ask for a better person or service. He was on top of all the arrangements, very knowledgeable on all topics and just couldn't do enough to make sure we were all comfortable and had everything we needed. Also had a good sense of humour and was easy for everyone to be around. The team were also fantastic and lovely food at every stop - more than we could eat! I would absolutely recommend this trip, and would use World Expeditions again when planning the next adventure.
