Great expereince and very helpful boss
We did the Manaslu Circuit Trek during about 14 days. We were two and had a guide and a porter. Binot was very helpful before the actual trek to give us all the information we needed. In the beginning of the trek there was some confusion about the route from our guide's side because the route changed a bit since corona and he has not been there since 2 years. This was no problem in the end as it was quite straightforward as there is just one trail. We enjoyed it a lot. Especially Dipak, our porter, was such a nice guy that made the trip even better. After the trek, Binot even helped me organize other treks that I wanted to do alone, without a guide, and gave me all the information we needed. Very good service, I appreciated it a lot! I can fully recommend Manaslu Expert for your trek as they take full care of their customers.
Response from the operator: We are very glad to know your trip was fantastic. And thank you for your feedback on our TA page, hopefully you will give us chance to we will organize next trips near future.

Memorable experience ! Amazing Trips.
The trek and whole experience was amazing. This was most awaited trip for us. In the last minute, many of the other trekkers has cancelled their trip due to the second wave Corona (Covid -19) Virus, but our travel planner "Manaslu expert" update for us then we fly to Kathmandu. I wasn't sure they would do the trip. Thankfully ! we made it Manaslu circuit trek with expert team, our guide "Shyam" was very helpful, kind professional and knowledgeable. He brief every place with logical, which is most interesting, we never forget him and team for memorable experience. If anyone are trek to manaslu, near future, we recommended Manaslu Expert and Team. Thank you

Excellent Service with Amazing Views
It was great time for Manaslu Circuit Trekking with Manaslu Expert during the Pandemic. Our Guide (Umesh) was very professional and knowledgeable. It's nice trek although on the first part road construction is going on. We enjoyed more above Jagat.

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Manaslu Circuit Trek from Kathmandu: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kathmandu.
How much does Manaslu Circuit Trek from Kathmandu cost?
+
Prices start at $590 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 from Kathmandu 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 Manaslu Circuit Trek from Kathmandu worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 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 from Kathmandu?
+
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 from Kathmandu 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 Manaslu Circuit Trek from Kathmandu?
+
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 Manaslu Circuit Trek from Kathmandu 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.
