About this experience
Head towards the Annapurna Base Camp from Pokhara passing through several hilltop villages along the way. The beauty of the locations and the thrill of travelling through forests and above gorges make this a perfect adventure. Annapurna Base Camp is considered the home of the gods by the locals and upon reaching there it does feel that the place has something divine. You will trek on the foot of the majestic Annapurna massif, walking past mountains over 21,000 feet in altitude. We will take you through such a route that you will visit all the beautiful villages on the way there and back. Altitude – From 4,600 feet at Kathmandu to 13,550 feet at Annapurna Base Camp Difficulty – Most days of the trek will be spent in lower Himalayas so they should not be as tough. But we do go over 10,000 feet and climb for hours on end which will put pressure on your legs and test your grit.

Annapurna Base Camp Trek with MountainKick
I did the Annapurna Base Camp trek with MountainKick, and it was an incredible experience! The trip was very well organized, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. Our guide was amazing — friendly, patient, and very knowledgeable about the mountains and local culture. He always made sure we were comfortable and having a good time. The trek itself was beautiful, with changing landscapes every day — villages, forests, waterfalls, and finally the stunning view at Base Camp surrounded by snow peaks. It was truly worth it! I highly recommend MountainKick to anyone planning the Annapurna Base Camp trek. They take great care of everything and make the journey unforgettable!

Annapurna circuit
Fantastic organization. Traveling to Nepal can hectic and hard. Everything went flawlessly although it was my first multi day trek and first time at 5416meters !!! Kumar is the best !
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review. We look forward to organizing more trips for you in the future.

Best experience in my life!
The trekking was awesome. Kumar took me to the best places. He is really a PRO. He is a very respectful and honest guy. He cares for you not as your client but as your friend. He has a great humor and patience.

Fantastic Experience
Dhanyabad!!!! That is thank you in Nepalese for all out there. My friend and I recently visited the Annapurna Base camp with the help of the MountainKick.The trek was amazing, we were blessed by the weather and got some amazing views of the peaks throughout our trek, especially at the Base Camp. Our guide, Jeevan, was great. Always good humored and made every day lots of fun. Overall we enjoyed every moment of being in the mountains. The best part was to have breakfast with the stunning view of the Mountains. The trail past the Modi Khola River and a forest towards Bamboo were amazing. Also, to add waking up at the base camp with 360 views of the gigantic mountain was amazing. We could not believe our eyes when the sun rays hit the top of Mount Annapurna. Definitely would recommend anyone who love hiking to go on this adventure. Mountain kick for sure is the best to book with. Namaste!!!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for a wonderful review. Jeevan for sure is a great guide and we are very proud of him. Hope to see you again.

Why this scores 66
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Annapurna Base Camp Express Trek - 10 days: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kathmandu.
How much does Annapurna Base Camp Express Trek - 10 days cost?
+
Prices start at $690 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kathmandu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Annapurna Base Camp Express Trek - 10 days take?
+
Plan for about 240 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kathmandu is not rushed.
Is Annapurna Base Camp Express Trek - 10 days worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Kathmandu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Annapurna Base Camp Express Trek - 10 days?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Annapurna Base Camp Express Trek - 10 days suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 15. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 240-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Annapurna Base Camp Express Trek - 10 days?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kathmandu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kathmandu and add a light layer if any part of the 240-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Annapurna Base Camp Express Trek - 10 days start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kathmandu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Kathmandu?
+
On Outty we rank every Kathmandu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Kathmandu Sightseeing Tour | UNESCO World Heritage sites, Classic Everest Base Camp Trek, Manaslu Circuit Trek. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Kathmandu?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Kathmandu?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
