    Unforgettable trekking experience in Annapurna region

    We had an amazing trekking experience with Shepherd Holidays, a local trekking company in Nepal. We would like to sincerely thank our incredible guide Umesh and hardworking porters Shree and Shankar. All lads were professional and friendly. Umesh was knowledgeable and patient and always ensured whether we were comfortable and safe or not. We liked the character that he has. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a well managed trekking experience in Nepal. Thanks

    Response from the operator: Namaste and thank you so much for your kind words! We’re truly grateful for your wonderful feedback and delighted to hear you had an unforgettable experience on the Annapurna Circuit with our team. Umesh, Shree, and Shankar will be very happy to know their efforts made your journey special. We look forward to welcoming you back to Nepal again soon — perhaps for your next adventure to Everest Base Camp or another beautiful trek in the Himalayas! Warm regards, Team Shepherd Holidays

    A memorable trek and stay, flawless organization by Shepherd Holidays!

    The 6-day trek around Annapurna was great (Tikkhegunda, Ulleri, Gorhepani, Gandruk, etc.), the guide and the porters were charming, efficient and very professional. We really appreciated and loved the organization of the trek as well as the visits made in the following days to Pokhara, Chitwan, Kathmandu, Nagar Kok, Bhaktapur, etc. Bandhu, our organizer, was wonderful and did everything to make the stay pleasant, without surprises and left us with a very nice memory. He “coached” us with kindness, courtesy and efficiency. Well done to Shepherd Holidays. We highly recommend!!!!

    Impressive Annapurna Circuit Trek: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Impressive Annapurna Circuit Trek cost?

    +

    Prices start at $955 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 Impressive Annapurna Circuit Trek take?

    +

    Plan for about 336 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 Impressive Annapurna Circuit Trek worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 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 Impressive Annapurna Circuit 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 Impressive Annapurna Circuit Trek suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 336-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Impressive Annapurna Circuit Trek?

    +

    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 336-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Impressive Annapurna Circuit 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 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.
