    Incredible Experience, Would Recommend 100%

    I came to Nepal on a complete whim after my flight home was cancelled and arrived totally unprepared for trekking—no gear and no real plan. Sanjit and his team helped me organize everything and took me on my first trek, which turned into one of the best experiences of my life. Sanjit is an incredible guide—very skilled, knowledgeable about the mountains, and always patient and trustworthy. Along the trek he shared so much about Nepal’s history, politics, and culture, which made the experience even more meaningful. As a young solo female traveler, I never once felt unsafe. Sanjit is genuinely kind, caring, and always alert on the trail, while still making the trek really fun and relaxed. And the views are absolutely insane—photos truly don’t do them justice. I couldn’t recommend Sanjit and his team more. They’re not just great guides, they’re genuinely good people.

    Response from the operator: Dear Valued Guest, Thank you so much for your incredible and detailed review. It truly means a lot to our entire team at Pariwar Holidays. We are especially happy to hear that, even with a last-minute change of plans, your journey in Nepal turned into one of the best experiences of your life. Moments like these are exactly why we love what we do. Sanjit will be very grateful for your kind words. He is indeed a highly skilled and knowledgeable guide, and we are proud to have him on our team. It’s wonderful to know that his passion for sharing Nepal’s history, culture, and insights made your trek even more meaningful. We are also very glad to hear that you felt safe, comfortable, and well cared for throughout your journey. Ensuring a secure and enjoyable experience especially for solo travelers is always one of our top priorities. Thank you for your strong recommendation and for trusting us with your first trekking experience. We truly hope to welcome you back to Nepal for more adventures in the future. Warm regards, Pariwar Holidays Team

    Amazing experience

    That was awesome experience. I said what I'd like and they planned everything for me. And, that was more than a expected. The trekking is amazing ans the Annapurna view is unbelievable. Dinesh, the guide, was very kind and on service all that time worried about my needs and how it's going for me. We had a lot of fun also, joking with how many stairs will have on the trekking. Tks for all.

    Response from the operator: Dear Mari Scaldini, Thank you so much for your beautiful words! 🙏 We’re truly happy to hear that everything was well planned and matched what you wanted to see and experience. It means a lot to us. We’re especially glad that our guide Dinesh took good care of you and made your trekking experience comfortable and memorable. The Himalayas are always special, and we’re honored to be part of your journey and memories. We sincerely hope for your future recommendations to your friends and family — it would mean a lot to us. 💙 Warm regards, Pariwar Holidays Team

    Annapurna Circuit with Jeevan

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An unforgettable experience I had the best experience of my life with Jeevan our guide. The 12 days Annapurna trek was far more than just a trip: it was a deep, enriching and unforgettable human adventure. Jeevan showed incredible kindness and patience. He never simply “did his job”. He took care of us as if we were part of his family. In the difficult moments, he was always there: attentive, reassuring and supportive. In the joyful moments, he was right beside us, sharing huge bursts of laughter, simple, real and precious moments. As the days went by, he became much more than a guide: a true friend. Someone with whom I shared the challenges of the trek but also some of the most beautiful moments of my life. I wholeheartedly recommend him. If you’re looking for someone professional, warm, funny, caring and passionate, don’t hesitate — you won’t find a better guide.

    Response from the operator: Dear Client, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your Annapurna Circuit trek adventure. Your feedback is invaluable and helps us continue to improve our services. If you have any suggestions or specific highlights from your trip that you'd like to share, we’d love to hear them! We hope to see you on another trek in the future and we are looking forward for your recommendation to your family and friends in upcoming days. Warm Regards From Pariwar Holidays Pvt. Ltd and Team

    Best Guide in Nepal Raman

    We did the amazing Poon Hill trekking with the best guide in Nepal, Raman. He was truly knowledgeable, friendly, and always ready to help us throughout the journey. From the very first day, he made sure everything was perfectly arranged — from our permits and accommodation to our daily trekking plan. His deep knowledge about the mountains, local culture, and the Annapurna region made the trip not only beautiful but also educational. Raman guided us with patience and care, explaining every peak we saw and sharing interesting stories about the Gurung villages and local traditions. His positive attitude and warm smile kept us motivated even during the toughest climbs. Watching the sunrise from Poon Hill with him as our guide was one of the most unforgettable experiences of our lives. If anyone is planning to trek in Nepal, we highly recommend Raman — the best guide who made our Poon Hill trekking a truly memorable and heart-touching adventure. Raman gave us extra and really good service throughout our Poon Hill trekking. He went beyond our expectations to make sure we were comfortable, safe, and happy every single day. From arranging cozy tea houses to helping us with our backpacks and even taking great photos for us, he always did more than a normal guide would do. He shared local stories, taught us about Nepali culture, and introduced us to friendly villagers along the way. Even when we were tired, Raman motivated us with his cheerful energy and encouragement. His caring nature made us feel like we were trekking with a close friend rather than just a guide. Because of his extra effort, kindness, and professionalism, our Poon Hill trek became one of the best adventures of our lives. If you’re planning to trek in Nepal, we truly recommend Raman — he’s not just a guide, he’s the best companion for an unforgettable mountain experience.

    Annapurna Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Annapurna Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek cost?

    +

    Prices start at $820 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 Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek take?

    +

    Plan for about 192 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 Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 87 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 123 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Kathmandu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Annapurna Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek?

    +

    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 Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 192-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Annapurna Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek?

    +

    Around 43 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 192-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Annapurna Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek 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 Kathmandu Sightseeing | UNESCO World Heritage sites Private/Group, Manaslu Circuit Trek, Manaslu Circuit Trek: Private Group & Discounte Price. 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.

    What is included in Annapurna Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek?

    +

    Included: An excellent English Speaking guide; Private transportation; Lunch; All Fees and Taxes; and Dinner. Not included: Alcoholic drinks (available to purchase); and Souvenir photos (available to purchase). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Annapurna Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 145 listed pickup locations in and around Kathmandu. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Annapurna Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Annapurna Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Annapurna Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Kathmandu. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.

    What do travelers say about Annapurna Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek?

    +

    Across 123 reviews averaging 4.9 out of 5, recurring themes include the guide, photo opportunities, knowledge and storytelling. Travelers single out the guide as the reason the experience works. One thing to know: Expect real walking or climbing: reviewers mention the effort involved.
