Experienced, responsible and professional team ensuring a successful and memorable trek!

Annapurna Circuit Trek was my first high altitude trek, and it ended up being the most memorable one as well. It was also my first trek in Nepal. All my prior doubts and worries were put to rest by an extremely able and confident team of the Nepal Himalayan Hiker. The team is led by guide Raj, who is experienced, extremely comfortable with the region and has a good network. The complete trek plan was professionally chalked out keeping in mind the altitude gain and acclaimatization required. We were debriefed on the kind of terrain we would be trekking, and what could be expected over the course of each day's trek. Raj & his team (Bimal & Rishib) took complete care of us, and ensured we were comfortable throughout the trek. We have taken a lot of wonderful memories with us, all thanks to Raj and team, and I'm really looking forward to my next trek with them.

Best experience, professionalism , knowledge sharing about the trek, comfortable, value for money, excellent team.

Raj is a great trek leader. He briefed us about every small to dos' and not to dos' before the start of the trek every day. He took care of our requirements (food, water, stay etc). His knowledge about Annapurna circuit trek is impeccable and he believes in sharing the knowledge with his fellow trekkers. He was always on his toes and would make sure that we all 4 Indian girls are always comfortable on the trek. He made sure that we complete our trek, no matter what and thus he provided us all the assistance required on the trek. Hands down, he is the best and he excels at his professionalism. His team members Rishabh and Bimal were also great help to all of us from time to time, right from carrying bags to offering us warm water, arranging for extra blankets, taking our beautiful pictures etc. Congratulations to the entire team of Nepal Himalayan Hikers for conducting the trek in such a professional manner and giving it's trekkers the best experience to cherish for life.

Response from the operator: Thank you Anshu you have amazing got experience hepal himalayas and our team see you again..

one unforgettable and amazing trip

I visited Nepal with my friends. We spent almost 3 weeks on Annapurna circuit trekking with our guide Raj. He is a kind and warmhearted person as a big brother who can take care of everyone properly. He has excellent mountain skills and full experience in high altitude mountain area. I've got a lot of information about Nepali lifestyle, culture and some famous temples' history through him. Yeah, we got luck on having him there! Even now when I think of this trip, it's definitely one of my unforgettable and amazing hiking experience. All the food, the views and the lovely people are worth a visit. I hope finally people get rid of this Covid-19 thing, then I'd like travel to there one more time, exploring Nepal with my dear friend Raj. Peace & Love, Always.

Response from the operator: Thank you written me review iam looking forward to see you this year in nepal himalaya keep smile and healthy Nepal himalayan hiker team Raj 🙏🙏

Annapurna Circuit Trekking 12 Days: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kathmandu.

How much does Annapurna Circuit Trekking 12 Days cost?

+

Prices start at $1179 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 Circuit Trekking 12 Days take?

+

Plan for about 294.5 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 Circuit Trekking 12 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 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kathmandu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Annapurna Circuit Trekking 12 Days?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Annapurna Circuit Trekking 12 Days suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 7. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 294.5-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Annapurna Circuit Trekking 12 Days?

+

Around 1 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 294.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Annapurna Circuit Trekking 12 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, Manaslu Circuit Trek, Kathmandu Food and Drink Walking Tour. 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.
