We had a fantastic experience trekking with Nepal Hiking Team on our 9-day journey to Annapurna Base Camp. On a trek like this, the difference between a great and average experience often comes down to the guide and porter, and Yubraj and Bissal did an excellent job making sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. The airport pick-up and drop-off made the transfers smooth and hassle-free. Special thanks to Ganga, who was very responsive and helpful in answering all our questions before the trip.
The guesthouse accommodations were good, and we had the flexibility to choose all our meals from a menu. We also had the option of hot or cold showers, with wifi available throughout most of the trek.
Travel tips: Keep in mind that in Nepal, services like wifi, hot showers, and phone charging usually come with a cost, as do extra drinks and water, all of which require cash. There is no phone charging available at ABC, so plan accordingly. Be prepared for wet weather and cold conditions. For much of the trek, you’ll need to buy boiled water, which worked fine for us, though we added purification tablets just to be safe.
