Annapurna Circuit & Tilicho Lake and Annapurna Base Camp!
mikenC6448JX,Apr 7, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00After completing the Everest 3 high passes trek two years,ago, we decided to use Adventure Great Himalaya Treks and Expedition again for our Annapurna Trek, as they provided great service and value last time. They did not disappoint. From meeting us at the airport to saying goodbye we felt we were in safe hands. Babu, the owner, modified our Annapurna Circuit trek to include Tilicho Lake and Annapurna Base Camp, both worthwhile destinations. Krishna, our guide, also made several changes to our itinerary on route, to accommodate our changing needs. Fantastic trip, I'll use Adventure Great Himalaya again, when I return to Nepal.

- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00Our group spent 3 weeks on the ACT and ABC trek with our guide Krishna and two porters. We were well supported, everything was professionally organized and we always felt safe. Krishna was flexible with our itinerary and helped one of us to arrange an unplanned side trip. I will use Adventure Great Himalaya for my next Nepal trekking trip, as they are a trustworthy company with great staff.
