We did the Short Poon Hill Trek and it was excellent. The views of Annapurna South and Dhaulagiri from the top of Poon Hill were incredible. We got lucky to have good weather on the day of the Poon Hill hike. Prakash was an amazing guide and Padam and Chhwang were amazing porters. They taught us the Dumbal card game from Nepal and we played that a lot in the evenings. Rajesh was also very responsive and helpful before the trek started. Will definitely choose this company if I go back to Nepal for another trek.

Nepal Trekking Experts provided an incredible services to guide and plan our trek in the Annapurna circuit. We added Tilicho Lake to the itinerary as well. Rajesh was very patient in providing us with all the information via text or call right from the beginning. The team was incredibly organised and thoughtful, defining the experience as exceptional from the first day. Our guide, Gautam, spoke good English and Hindi, supported us thoroughly throughout the challenging trek. He gave us tips on how to walk on steep ascends and descends. Our porter, Arjun, was ever so attention to our needs. The stays at the tea houses were extremely comfortable with attached baths and breathtaking views. Our feedback was asked about every meal and every stay.
Overall, I would highly recommend Nepal Trekking Experts to anyone who wants to do a trek in Nepal, the team is awesome and accommodates your itinerary to suit your travel plans. Thank you, Rajesh, Gautam and Arjun.
Hoping to see you again soon.
Thank you.
