Really well organised & guided & well-paced trek to Annapurna BC with follow-on visits to Pokhara & Chitwan National Park. No one (6 clients) had any issues with altitude. Accomodation choices were excellent with friendly hosts & excellent freshly prepared food. Thank you Lakpa for a memorable rewarding experience in Nepal and your cheerful, caring relaxed leadership thru’out.
Spend 3 amazing weeks hiking up to Annapurna Base Camp, then a few days in Pokhara and Chitwan National Park. Our guide Lhakpa was the most professional and diligent guide you will ever find. Made the trip immensely pleasurable as everything was organized and had nothing to worry about. Thanks Lhakpa, Tom
