A Long-Awaited Dream, Exceeded-Manaslu Circuit Trek
I’ve just returned from the Manaslu Circuit. I waited over 45 years to do this trek. Saying it exceeded expectations in nearly every aspect is no overstatement. My friend and I, both active hikers over 65, were guided by Mr. Pratap, who ensured our comfort, safety, and enjoyment with great attention. Porter Bir Sing was ever-present, full of energy and uplifting support. The pacing was excellent, both in distance and altitude gain. The scenery was unmatched, and we crossed the 5160m Larke Pass without even a headache. Lodges were lovely spots for conversation with inspiring young trekkers. Chandra at the office constantly looked for ways to improve our experience. I highly recommend Himalaya Guide Nepal—don’t miss this trek!

Expertly Guided by Dinesh-Manaslu Circuit Trek-2025
My father, brother, and I had a great experience trekking the Manaslu Circuit. Dinesh was an exceptional guide, always incredibly attentive and highly safety-conscious, which is vital at altitude. Saurab, our porter, was also super friendly and a great help. Both were wonderful company, even joining us for evening card games! Chandra was consistently professional and attentive with outstanding communication. I couldn’t recommend Himalaya Guide Nepal more highly!”

Masterfully organized, Memorable Manaslu Circuit Trek with Outstanding Local HGN Team – May 2025
We’ve just concluded a marvellous 12-day trek of the Manaslu Circuit. Expertly organized by Chandra (the company owner) and brilliantly supported by Dinesh (guide) and Saurabh (helper), the trek was competitively priced with a perfectly suited acclimatization schedule and a strong emphasis on safety. We were well-provided with warm sleeping bags and jackets. Dinesh and Saurabh were excellent company throughout, offering superb local knowledge and strong community connections. Their almost endless supply of fruit, nuts, and energy bars ensured we felt exceptionally well looked after. I wholeheartedly recommend both this incredible route and the company.”

Life List Dream Fulfilled-Manaslu circuit Trek with HGN
Our recent Manaslu Circuit trek fulfilled a lifelong dream and met our highest expectations, all thanks to the exceptional Himalaya Guide team. From the initial logistics organized by Chandra to the trek’s completion, led by Guide Mr. Pratap and Porter Mr. Birsing, the adventure was essentially flawless. The scenery is among the most stunning on the planet, complemented by impressive trail infrastructure. Pratap ensured our physical safety and comfort, kept us well-informed, and managed tea house accommodations perfectly. Birsing, our porter, was simply amazing, tough yet always cheerful and helpful. The daily pace was ideal, allowing us to complete every step, including the 5150m pass, with minimal discomfort and no altitude sickness symptoms – a testament to the excellent acclimatization schedule. Having experienced wilderness travel worldwide, we rank this trek among our top adventures ever. We highly recommend both the trek and the services of Himalaya Guides.

Private Deluxe for the Manaslu Circuit Trek 2024
Everything was expertly planned by Chandra (Himalaya Guide Nepal Pvt.Ltd.) and our guide, Dinesh, from the time they met us at the airport until the end of the hike.
Accommodations: Hotel-style accommodations are not what you should expect. Although they were simple, Dinesh always tried to get us the best rooms possible and ensured we were as comfortable as possible.
Food: We were pleasantly surprised by the food. We were astounded by how the teahouse chefs were able to provide trekkers with home-cooked meals so effectively, from the hot porridge in the morning to the delicious noodle soup served with chapati bread and, of course, dal bhat.
The actual journey: The people and the scenery were breathtaking and well worth the effort.
Dinesh Gurung and Birsing Gurung were our guide and porter. were crucial to the success of our journey. When I was feeling under the weather one day in Lho, Dinesh hugged me and assured me that he would take care of us. Our trip was considerably simpler and more pleasurable thanks to his expertise, tools, attention to detail, and personal care.
Additionally, he arranged a heartwarming visit with a local family.
Without a doubt, I would use Himalaya Guide Nepal to arrange another trek.
