  • Our pre-season 14-day trekking adventure (Nar, Phu, Tilicho Lake, Annapurna Circuit) was deeply moving, spectacular, and magical. This was largely thanks to the attentive and fantastic guidance of Bire (guide) and Taj (porter), as well as the professional and compassionate support from the Himalayan Trails office team, especially Amanda and Raj. Everything went perfectly - communication before, during, and after the trip was immediate, excellent, and caring. Questions were answered quickly, and we received valuable information about daily matters, culture, the mountain environment, and so on, along with excellent orientation and briefings throughout the trek. For our next trekking trip in Nepal, we would definitely choose Himalayan Trails again, especially since they are also very committed to sustainability.

    Truly a trip of a lifetime. Once we had decided to spend a month exploring Nepal, we pretty well handed the organisation on to Mads and the team at Himalayan Trails and never looked back. The passion and professionalism with which every aspect of our trip was planned and executed was absolutely top rate, leaving us to soak up the whole experience of extraordinary people and places, stress free. Our guides were not only extremely knowledgeable and experienced, but excellent company and the accommodation, when not trekking, always exceeded our expectations. We will never forget the exhilaration of walking in those mountains, especially on the crisp, clear day we crossed the Larke Pass on the Manaslu circuit with the dawning sun painting the mountains golden. Our wildlife safaris in both Suklaphanta and Bardia National Park again exceeded expectations, not just in terms of the amazing wildlife (yes we did see two Bengal Tigers!) but again the expertise and professionalism of the guides and excellent accommodation. I cant recommend Himalayan Trails highly enough and are already planning our next trek with them. Thanks again to the whole team for making the memories from this bucket list trip ones to cherish.

  • I was genuinely excited about this trip, as it was my first solo adventure. Despite the unexpected circumstances I encountered upon arriving in Nepal, my guides were attentive and dedicated, going above and beyond to ensure I had a great experience and could stick to my itinerary. I would definitely recommend this trip!

    I trekked the Pikey Peak for my 50th birthday with my sister and it was fabulous. We experienced a flooding disaster with heavy rain and weren't able to complete parts of the trek but our tour guides were fabulous and kept us safe and happy. Tendu, Tenjee and Dolma were awesome becoming more then guides, but friends. I highly recommend Himalayan-Trails for any adventure in Nepal. I will be back for sure. Thanks Team Himalayan-Trails

    Perfectly crafted custom MTB trip in the Annapurna region. Our guide, Suman was truly incredible and made our trip 100% Type 1 fun with just the right mix of adventure and luxury. This company goes above and beyond to support sustainable tourism and perfects the combination of cultural experiences with hardcore adventuring. Already looking forward to my next adventure!

  • The most professional and well-run trekking company I've ever trekked with in Nepal. From start to end we felt taken care of, well informed and in good hands. Our guide was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the area we were trekking in (he is from the area), as well as the local culture and traditions. We were trekking with children aged 7 and 9, and he was able to make route adjustments when needed for tired legs. The kids made a big friend. The lodges were all great, it was a really nice diverse trek with gorgeous mountains and rich culture, even with a stay at a Buddhist Monastery. The driver who drove us to and from the trek was very good and despite the many bad roads in Nepal he drove us safely and comfortably around.

    Myself and my two uncles did an extended version of the Tsum Valley and Manaslu trek and up through Larke Pass. Everything was so well organised, we barely had to think about anything other than what we wanted to eat! The guide and porter that travelled with us were so lovely, caring, accommodating and skilled at what they do. The trek itself was challenging and so beautiful, we often found ourselves on a lesser-known trail that was a great and beautiful alternative to some of the crowded sections of the Manaslu Circuit. We had time to do short side trips on rest days during the trek, in which some of my favourite memories were made- such as trekking up to the Tibetan Border at 5300m! We visited many Gumpas along the way which was so special. The local people welcomed us warmly at every place we went. The weather was absolutely perfect for the trek from Dharmasala up to Larke Pass rounding off the trek perfectly. The staff working in the office at Himalayan Trails are all so lovely and helpful, and are a pleasure to spend a little time with if you have extra time and they aren’t too busy. I will definitely be using Himalayan Trails for my next trip to Nepal! Love, Anusha

    Through the Kimkim platform, Himalayan Trails (HT) planned and coordinated a 2 week trip from Beijing to Kathmandu for my US based daughter and I. Having traveled extensively to more than 40+ countries, we had a very positive experience working with HT. Key reasons: - timely and thorough communication before, during, and after the trip - experienced staff that were nuanced in their understanding of important details - demonstrated flexibility in modifying the schedule to accommodate personal preferences - effective use of local guides/resources that are very personable and knowledgeable of the location and key attractions - the entire team is focused on ensuring client satisfaction I highly endorse HT's services, even for the most discriminating clients.
