Once in a Lifetime Experience! - This has been the trip of a lifetime!! I was so nervous being a young solo female traveller but my guide Oham Raj. Tamang was so kind. He came round the day before to answer any questions and to make sure I was prepared. The hike was challenging but so worth it. The views were amazing. Oham made sure I was always rested,hydrated and changed plans to make sure I got the most out of the experience. I was a little sick at MBC and I felt so well looked after and got such good care and still managed to continue the journey once I felt better. I would so recommend this trek! Oham was also my own personal photography and captured so many memories for me, which I am so grateful for! He also was very knowledgeable about the culture of the villages we passed and got me trying different plants and fruit along the way. Everything was so well organized from trekking pass, to food and where we were staying each night. No stress Thank you xx

ABC 5 days - Five days trekking to the Annapurna Base Camp: a challenging but truly rewarding experience. What made it unforgettable was our guide Prakash and his company Cordial Trek – professional, attentive, and always supportive. He really takes care of us and thanks to them, it wasn’t just a trek but a journey filled with joy, safety, and unforgettable moments. If you are looking for a trekking company this is the best in Nepal. Highly recommended!

Raj&Smile are superb guides - Raj and Smile were exceptional guides for our Annapurna Base Camp Trek. They are kind, cheerful, and strong men who make you feel safe in the mountains. I really appreciated their willingness to explain Nepali culture, habits, and stories. If go back to Nepal, I would definitely ask them to guide me in the mountains once again. 100% recommended!

Annapurna Base Camp (5 Days) - Just completed the Annapurna Base Camp trek in Nepal and it was truly an unforgettable experience. We were fortunate to have Raj as our guide. He is professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring throughout the journey. He constantly looked out for us, made sure we were comfortable, and gave clear guidance at every stage of the trek. Our porter, Smile, was equally amazing. True to his name, he was always smiling and brought such positive energy with him every day, even when the trail got tough. His presence alone helped lift our spirits. The trek itself is not easy, especially if you’re not adequately trained. There are endless stone stairs and rocky terrain both ascending and descending, which can be physically demanding. That said, the effort is absolutely worth it. The views along the way are nothing short of spectacular – dramatic valleys, waterfalls, rivers, and majestic snow-capped mountains that make you stop and just take it all in. It’s one of those experiences that humbles you and reminds you of how beautiful nature can be. If you’re planning to do this trek, I’d recommend training at least two months ahead to build stamina and strengthen your legs. I went during the monsoon season, and it’s important to be prepared – quick-dry clothes are essential, and a proper poncho is a must. For a five-day trek, bring five pairs of socks and underwear because nothing really dries in time. Everything else, keep it light and minimal. The less you carry, the easier the journey. All in all, this was a challenging but deeply rewarding adventure. With the right mindset, some preparation, and an amazing team like Raj and Smile, it’s an experience that will stay with you for a lifetime!

Amazing time on 5 day ABC trek - I had an amazing time on my trek to Annapurna base camp. Raju and Om were very knowledgeable and helpful during the 5 days on the trail. It rained and was pretty cloudy most of the time but I still had an amazing time and we were lucky enough for the clouds to go away on our morning at ABC!

Amazing experience (Annapurna Base Camp trekking) with the best guide and porter - The 5-day Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) trek from Pokhara was one of the most magical and enriching experiences we've ever had. While it definitely requires good physical fitness, it's absolutely worth every step – not only for the incredible natural beauty but also for the personal and emotional growth it inspires. Each day of the trek offers something unique: from lush forests to dramatic mountain landscapes, the scenery constantly changes and connects you deeply with nature. It's a journey that challenges you, but also rewards you with a profound sense of peace and accomplishment. We were incredibly lucky to have Terrence as our guide and Benjamin as our porter. Both were extremely professional, kind, and attentive to our needs throughout the trek. Their company made the experience even more special – we felt supported and safe the entire way, and truly enjoyed sharing the journey with them. We would absolutely do this trek again or try another Himalayan route with Terrence and Benjamin without hesitation. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a meaningful adventure. Thank you so much!

The Annapurna Base Camp Trekking - The Annapurna Base Camp trekking was an amazing experience thanks to a very professional guide and a wonderful porter companion. This was our first trekking in Nepal and we were taken care of from the start to the end. We felt very safe along the way and when altitude sickness hit, our guide helped us overcome it. Thank you!

Solo travelling No experience with hiking or tracking - I've been traveling alone through Asia for almost 5 months and decided to do this track as the final part of my trip because I've never been in the mountains before and have never seen any really big mountains in my life. I have to say that it was one of the best, if not the best, things I've done on my trip. I've never hiked before in my life and yet I somehow managed it. It was probably the hardest thing I've ever done in my life, but it was definitely worth it. My guide was Sherpa Anil and my porter was Hem. Both were great, they helped me with everything and took fantastic care of me. I had a really great time with them in the mountains of Nepal. I definitely recommend doing the track, even if you don't have any real experience!
