5.00My friends and I had the time of our lives on the Annapurna trek! We crossed so many wooden and metal bridges, saw beautiful waterfalls, and even spotted a yak or two. The locals were some of the friendliest people I’ve ever met. They shared stories, and we had such good laughs at the teahouses. By the time we got to base camp, we felt on top of the world—literally! Highly recommend this trek to anyone looking for fun and adventure

There’s something so peaceful about walking through those forests, crossing bridges over rushing rivers, and seeing small waterfalls up close. The locals were so kind and welcoming—it felt like they made the journey even more special. By the time I reached base camp, I felt completely renewed. If you're looking for a bit of adventure and some soul-searching, this is the trek for you.

- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00Having just returned from the ABC trek, I can honestly say it was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. The scenery was unreal; each turn revealed new mountains, valleys, and glistening rivers. The sunrise over Annapurna Base Camp was a sight I’ll cherish forever. Food-wise, I was pleasantly surprised. Every teahouse offered unique local dishes, and I found a love for gundruk (fermented leafy greens) and the famous apple brandy. Sharing meals with fellow trekkers from around the world created a wonderful sense of community. If you’re considering this trek, go for it—you won't regret it!
