11/10 recommend Manaslu Circuit Trek
WOW! I did the Manaslu circuit trek led by Prakash and Arjan and had the experience of a lifetime. As a solo female traveler, they were professional, kind, and accommodating of our group with varying experience with trekking. If I’m ever in Nepal again, I would definitely trek with them again. Cannot recommend them more!

Dhurba is the best!
We did the Manaslu Circuit with Dhurba as our guide. And what an amazing guide he is! This man has an inexhaustible source of energy, no matter what time of day it is. He is always cheerful and gives you a pep talk when you are tired. I was the slowest of the group, but he was always super supportive: just go at your own pace, it doesn't matter! With his jokes and encouraging words, he really got me through it. He also takes care of everything for you if you want something to eat or drink or need anything else, always responding with: “Yes possible.” It's really relaxed, because then all you have to think about is walking and the rest is taken care of. In the evenings, we sometimes went dancing and singing. Dhurba, I already miss you! Your wonderful laughter throughout the day, the singing and dancing, hilarious jokes and encouraging hugs. When I go back to Nepal, I will definitely book my trek with you again. Thank you for everything and good luck this season!

Omg thank you my friend!!! 💪😃❤️
Dear Dhurba, Thank you for showing us the beautiful Manaslu Circuit. Thank you for your amazing energy and your ever-motivating laughter. And thank you for sharing your passion for the mountains with us. We couldn't have asked for a better guide for this trip! Much love, Nienke

AMAZING
I came with my friend for the 12-day Manaslu Circuit. We were in a group of 10 with two guides, Ramsharan and Dhurba. They were attentive and responsive to all our requests, but most importantly, they were incredibly funny and always ready to lift our spirits. The circuit itself was just amazing! I wouldn’t hesitate to do another trek with these two guides in the future.

Manaslu Circuit Trek 12 Days -Full Board Package: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kathmandu.
How much does Manaslu Circuit Trek 12 Days -Full Board Package cost?
+
Prices start at $530 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 Trek 12 Days -Full Board Package take?
+
Plan for about 288 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 Trek 12 Days -Full Board Package worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 10 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 Trek 12 Days -Full Board Package?
+
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 Trek 12 Days -Full Board Package suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 288-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Manaslu Circuit Trek 12 Days -Full Board Package?
+
Around 4 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 288-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Manaslu Circuit Trek 12 Days -Full Board Package 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.
