Mera Peak Expedition - 20 Days

The most incredible experience!

After trekking EBC last April, my partner and I fell in love with hiking and wanted to go higher so we made the decision to climb Mera Peak. This was our first trip with Annapurna Foothills but it most certainly will not be the last! Right from the start, this company and the team working with Ngima & Tenzing were absolutely extraordinary. Being our first summit attempt, my partner and I did not have a lot of climbing experience but our guide Chhiring made sure we were ready for the mountains - his dedication to our safety and enjoyment during the entire trip was out of this world. Himself and our wonderful porter Chitra always went above and beyond for us and made the trip truly special. We cannot thank the crew at Annapurna Foothills enough for creating such an incredible experience and guiding us on a successful summit attempt. The trip itself is extremely well planned and the itinerary is perfect - the acclimatisation days helped us greatly prepare for the higher altitude and for summit push. The path to Khare is quiet and less crowded than other treks so it’s a beautiful journey and you get to enjoy the scenery & peacefulness of the mountains. All of the facilities/tea houses/food along the trek were also amazing, and we were always well looked after. I highly recommend this trip if you’re considering a summit attempt and want to challenge yourself. Summit day is a hard day but every minute is worth it once you’re standing on top of Mera Peak!

Mera Peak Climbing

Amazing first peak in Nepal

This was an amazing experience. Stunning landscapes, beautiful little towns, snow, rain, sun, cold, and even yes, hot weather. We had it all. Everyone at Nepal Mountain Trekkers were so helpful in every way and went out of their way to make sure this was an amazing trip for me. From setting up other sight seeing pre and post trip, to helping me rent some gear I did not bring, they took care of everything. Despite having one of those, "once every 30 year" storms and being stuck for a while due to too much snow, my guide Sudip was able to work with the team back in Kathmandu to readjust my schedule and still give us a shot at getting to the peak, which we did! In fact, we were some of the first up to the top after the massive storm. After that, Ramesh and Suman were able to change my flight from Lukla back to Kathmandu with no problem, even though Lukla was slammed with trekkers whose schedules had been interrupted due to the storm. If you want a great, friendly team who is willing to go the extra mile, even when circumstances change, I absolutely recommend these guys. Thank you to all of you who made this trip possible! I'll be seeing you soon for my next adventure next year!

Mardi Himal Trek

A trek to remember and a great Guide!

I get great recommendation from a group of friends that did the Poon Hill trek in 2023. I contacted Mr Badri to arrange me a trek to Mardi Himal. After we talked a bit about our needs and what we want, he gave me an offer. The offer had a detailed plan, very detailed instruction on what is included and not included on the price and most importantly all the equipment we will need for the trek. Having completed the trek I can say that everything was spot on. Really nice organization and very very good communication before, through and after the trip. Our Guide was Nawin. Very experienced, knowledgable and really a great company thought the five days we spend together. We become friends. He is smart and you can trust him on the mountains! Also he is a great great company! Great experience overall, and great price!
