Exploring the less explored, newly opened, lush jungle, striking views of remarkable Himalayan vistas along with preserved Tibetan cultural are the perfect highlights of Manaslu circuit trek. After driving 7 hrs North west from Kathmandu the trek begins from Soti khola & provides us a rare opportunity of exploring the rural villages of Nepal as it was 50 years ago and many more natural beauties. The eighth tallest mountain in the world Mt. Manaslu 8163 m from the sea level & it's Base Camp, Pungen Gumpa, open Tibet border Rui La 4998m and crossing the challenging Larke La 5160m make our trip exceptionally memorable. Standing at the top of the Larke La and observing only towering white Himalayas surroundings compensate our hard effort so far & won't let you less joy than natural paradise. The 14 days hike in Manaslu region is the best way of mentally refreshing and spending few days of your life. If you have further query please feel free to contact us now.

A responsible, efficient, and humane agency
I would like to attest to the professionalism of this agency.. its manager was attentive to us the whole time, very available, and above all committed to organizing the best and safest trek possible for us; the team provided was top-notch with our guide Sonam, who was very responsible, attentive to our pace, and very humane.. same for our porters, who were very helpful..
For our second stay in Lhasa, the agency showed great adaptability and was able to meet our requests with a Tibetan guide who knew Tibetan culture from the inside.. I highly recommend this very affordable, efficient, and above all humane agency, which managed to make our stays in Nepal and Tibet unique, interesting, and joyful despite exceptional circumstances

Manaslu Circuit / Pokhara / Chitwan Safari
I am returning from a 2-week trek in Nepal organized by Nepal Trekking Expert and I can only recommend them.
I started with the Manaslu Circuit in early September. Despite weather conditions that were not always favorable, our guide Binod was incredible and knew how to adapt to any situation. Very professional, always attentive to acclimatization for the Larke Pass, in a good mood, and knowing the region and its inhabitants perfectly. We felt safe from start to finish.
Then 3 days in Pokhara to rest by the lake, then 4 days in Chitwan with jeep and walking safaris. Perfect organization and magnificent environment.
A serious, responsive local agency, fair price, and very respectful of its team. Thanks to the entire Nepal Trekking Expert team!
I recommend it 100%.

Amazing trekking Manaslu
I did the Manaslu Circuit trek in begin April with my friend to celebrate our 40th birthday and longtime friendship. We booked directly with Nepal Trekking Experts. Along came Tim from Australië. We had an amazing trip, unbelieveble scenery nice weather, and the best guide you can wish for Thakur. Thakur give us advice along the way, was always wright and acted as our butler in the hostels! He made our experience extra special, always made sure you were looked after and that everything was going good. If we come back some day we defenitly are booking with Nepal Trekking Experts again. The do the extra's for you before, during and after you come back. Overall 10 out of 10 life time experience. Thank you fore everything Thakur and team.

Manaslu Circuit Trek
We booked the Manaslu Circuit trek and had a very pleasant experience with Nepal Trekking Experts. The communication beforehand was clear and transparent, which made us feel like we were in good hands.
During the trek, we were excellently guided by Dinesh. He was able to answer every question and was well-prepared. He often knew the local people in the tea houses, which added real value.
We would highly recommend Nepal Trekking Experts, Rajesh, and Dinesh.

Manaslu circuit with Nepal Trekking Experts
We were so well looked after by the Nepal Trekking Experts team. It was the perfect way to enjoy our trek because all we had to worry about was walking each day, everything else was taken care of for us. We felt safe like we could really rely on our guides and it was great to have someone to ask questions to when in a new area. Great value for money, we will definitely be back.

10/10 experience with a wonderful company.
I did both the Manaslu Circuit trek and a Chitwan Safari with Nepal Trekking Experts, and the entire experience was flawless. Everything was incredibly well-organized and ran perfectly smoothly from start to finish.
Beyond their amazing logistics, they are an exceptionally kind, generous, and attentive company that truly goes above and beyond for their clients. If you want a seamless, stress-free adventure in Nepal, book with them—you won't regret it.

Manaslu 17 Day Trek
An amazing experience with Nepal Trekking Experts! Myself and my wife did the 17 Manaslu Trek. Our guide Thakur was incredible, from picking us up at the airport to passing the 5106m Larke Pass Thakur made us feel comfortable and confident. Thakur not only was an amazing guide but an incredibly kind, experienced and lighthearted person. If I were coming back for any other trekking in Nepal I would make sure to go with Nepal Trekking Experts and Thakur. Rajesh was also great to work with from first inquiry to final details before heading home. He was detailed, flexible to our travel plans and also very friendly.

Manaslu and Tsum Valley Trek
Excellent experience. Rajesh works hard to ensure you have the best experience and is very responsive and happy to answer any questions you may have. He will also organize any additional activities you're interested in( tours etc). Our guide(Lok) and porters(Uttam and Padam) were incredible and we had a great time trekking with them. I highly recommend Nepal Trekking Experts.

The perfect Nepal trekking experience!!
We just got back from Manaslu+Tsum Valley + Chitwan with Nepal Trekking Experts, and it could not have been a more perfect experience.
When deciding who to book with, I did a ton of research and relied heavily on reviews. It's very obvious now why Nepal Trekking Experts has such amazing reviews. Our entire trip from the moment we landed in Kathmandu went perfectly. Rajesh takes care of absolutely everything. We were picked up at the airport and taken to a very comfortable hotel on a quiet street in Thamel. The next morning, Rajesh went through the entire plan with us, and gave advice on exactly what to bring on the trek (We all overpacked).
We had the most wonderful guide, Lok. We all felt so lucky that we got to spend almost 3 weeks with him. Lok is kind, patient, knowledgable, and extremely experienced. He truly made our trek so special. We trusted him completely with our safety and well being, and with 29 years of experience, he knows everything. Lok and our porters, Uttam and Padam, all went way above and beyond to make sure we had a great trip. They were always looking out for us, making sure we were eating enough food, pacing ourselves, drinking enough water, etc. And when two of us got sick, Lok adjusted the plan and made sure we could fully rest and recover. And a bonus - Padam has some culinary training and made us some super delicious treats along the way!! We also loved playing cards with Lok, Padam, and Uttam in the evenings.
I decided at the last minute that I wanted to go to Chitwan after our trek, and with basically one text, Rajesh arranged the entire thing - even with the slightly complicated logistics of half our party heading straight back to Kathmandu, and half of us breaking off towards Chitwan.
I will absolutely be coming back and booking with Nepal Trekking Experts again. We didn't have to worry about a single thing, and were able to focus on enjoying everything around us. I can't recommend Rajesh and his company highly enough!!
You won't regret booking with Nepal Trekking Experts!! The trip exceeded our (already high) expectations in every way. Can't wait to come back.
