ON SHORT The word Manasalu is derived from a Sanskrit word 'MANASA' which means the spirit of Mountains. This trek was officially opened to tourists in 1991, which offers a unique opportunity to experience the relatively “untouched” region. This epic trip circumnavigates the entire massif with an insight into the cultures of ethnic Nepalese tribes and peoples of both Hinduism, Buddhism religion, but mountaineering expeditions have had long access to the area. In 1950 a party led by H.W. Tillman trekked from Thonje to Bimtang and col. Jimmy Roberts crossed the Larkya La (Pass) looking for an interesting mountain to climb. Manaslu (8,163m) was attempted by Japanese Expeditions every year from 1952 until 1956 when the first ascent was made. Having become known as "JapaneseMountain" much of the information about the area was available in Japanese.

A trek up the Tsum Valley and the Manaslu circuit.
We had an excellent time on our Tsum/Manaslu trek. There were two of us, with Pasang as guide and Phurba as porter. They were efficient, great company, and happy travel companions. After a delayed start due to a big snow dump and rainstorm, our trek went smoothly, staying in good clean tea houses with copious quantities of hearty food to sustain us. Dawa organised all the logistics, from meeting us at the airport, hotels, jeep rides, guide and porter, internal flights, tea house bookings, Kathmandu tour, and a cultural dinner. This is the fourth time I have had Dream Himalaya Adventures look after logistics on a trek and I won't hesitate to call Dawa again the next time.

Trip of a lifetime
This was a trip I had been really keen to do for over 40 years when I last came to Nepal and did a short trek then. It was everything that I had been hoping for: stunning views of the Himalayas, an almost tangible spirituality about the whole journey, wonderful flowers especially in the rhododendron forests and a glimpse of a fascinating culture, very different to the West. I had a wonderful guide, Pasang and porter, Pemba. I was a bit apprehensive about my fitness but Pasang paced me well an made sure we did enough acclimatisation walking, so I was comfortably able to reach and enjoy the Manaslu Base Camp and Larke La pass. Pemba certainly helped - always offering to carry more if I looked tired and singing to raise our spirits. Pasang was also invaluable too in that he seemed to know everybody and everywhere to visit and could always find someone to open a locked door. Dawa Sherpa, the owner of Dream Himalaya Adventures, was really helpful when we were planning the trip with lots of practical advice and help when some of my luggage was lost on the flight to Nepal and the logistics were faultless. I can easily see why so many people go back to him to organise their next trek or climb.

The Mansulu trek with the most professional and enjoyable Dream Himalayan Adventures
This trek , though more busy than we anticipated, still maintained mostly quiet trails with massive views. It also has several side treks that we experienced and enjoyed. We were treated so well by Dream Himalayan adventures. Not a hassle or a problem. Massive thanks for making this trek so memorable. We will be back!!

Manaslu Circuit Tea House Trekking On 16 Days: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kathmandu.
How much does Manaslu Circuit Tea House Trekking On 16 Days cost?
+
Prices start at $2,050 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 Manaslu Circuit Tea House Trekking On 16 Days take?
+
Plan for about 384 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 Manaslu Circuit Tea House Trekking On 16 Days 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 Manaslu Circuit Tea House Trekking On 16 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 Manaslu Circuit Tea House Trekking On 16 Days suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 384-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Manaslu Circuit Tea House Trekking On 16 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 384-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Manaslu Circuit Tea House Trekking On 16 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 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.
