Manaslu Circuit Trek – April 2024
I had a beautiful 14-day trek (3 travel days and 11 hiking days) on the Manaslu Circuit. Communication with Chandra beforehand was smooth, and the guidance from Dinesh and our two porters, Prabin and Birsing, was excellent and professional. All we had to do was walk, eat, sleep, enjoy, and repeat. We were always well cared for and never felt unsafe. When we experienced mild altitude symptoms, Dinesh managed the situation calmly and professionally. We also did stunning acclimatization hikes to a lake and an old monastery with 360-degree mountain views. Every day we set off on time, arriving early in the afternoon, allowing for rest and moments to fully appreciate this beautiful experience. Overall, I am very happy with this organization and highly recommend Himalaya Guide Nepal Pvt. Ltd. Thank you very much!

Explore the Stunning Manaslu Trek-2024 with Expert Guide Dinesh
My son and I just completed the Manaslu Circuit trek with another trekker, our guide Dinesh, and porters Birsing and Prabin. This has been the best holiday I have ever had. When researching trek guides, Chandra was very responsive, making the booking process easy via WhatsApp. We met Chandra and Dinesh in Kathmandu to finalize trek preparations and ensure we had the right gear. Initially, I worried the hike might be too challenging, but within two days, I knew it wasn’t the case. Each day offered stunning, ever-changing scenery, and Dinesh set a steady pace, allowing plenty of time for breaks and rest. Dinesh was attentive to our inexperience with high-altitude trekking, providing detailed daily briefings on the route, attire, and dietary advice. He ensured we had the best accommodations and took care of our meal orders. The company’s down jackets and sleeping bags were high-quality and kept us warm during chilly nights. We had a lot of fun as a group, playing cards and celebrating my birthday with a cake presented in a Nepalese style celebration. The trek featured diverse scenery, remote monasteries, and glacial lakes. I highly recommend the Manaslu trek for a remote, tranquil experience and suggest you request Dinesh as your guide.

Experience Manaslu’s Majesty with Himalaya Guide Nepal
I visited Nepal 8 years ago and trek to the Annapurna Circuit with guide Bashu. This spring, I returned with my daughter to trek around Manaslu, and my biggest wish was to do this with Bashu again. Bashu referred us to his company, and my daughter coordinated the details with Chandra, the company head. Bashu was waiting for us at the airport, and after finalizing details in Kathmandu, we set off the next day with our porter, Birsing. We spent two wonderful weeks between 700- and 5100-meters altitude, experiencing constantly changing landscapes. Despite the cold at higher altitudes, we enjoyed our time thanks to down jackets, sleeping bags, good accommodations, and great food with fruit desserts provided by Bashu and Birsing. We adjusted our itinerary to avoid the cold in Samagaun, staying an extra day in Tiliche, which offered beautiful village scenery. After the trek, we traveled to Besisahar with two other trekkers from the company and enjoyed a barbecue and a cake celebration. We spent a few days in Bandipur and Chitwan National Park before a farewell dinner in Kathmandu, hosted by Chandra. I highly recommend this company and the Manaslu trek. We felt comfortable at all times and look forward to returning.

Manaslu Circuit Trek – 2024
We did Manaslu Circuit with guide Bashu and porter Birsing. The experience was absolutely great. Besides the breathtaking nature, Bashu managed everything, ensuring we always felt safe and comfortable. In the evenings, Bashu explained the plan for the next day and provided fresh fruit. We had planned an extra day due to altitude concerns, but as we didn’t need it, they were flexible, allowing us to enjoy an additional day in warmer regions at the end of the trip. We stayed at the best guesthouses with great food, cozy rooms, and hot showers. During the trek and at the farewell dinner, we met other guides from Himalaya Guide Nepal, who were also very nice. We highly recommend this agency.

Manaslu Circuit Trek – Johanna
The Manaslu Circuit trek was truly remarkable! Perfectly organized by Chandra weeks before our arrival in Kathmandu, the experience was seamless from start to finish.
Our guide, Dinesh, and porter, Birsing, were incredibly flexible throughout the trek. They adjusted the itinerary to accommodate knee issues, ensuring the entire family could complete the trail. The company provided us with high-quality down jackets and sleeping bags, which were fantastic during the colder evenings and nights.
Dinesh and Birsing took excellent care of us, offering fresh fruits and sharing insightful information about the nature and culture and detail history of Manaslu Circuit route as well data of Mt.manaslu expedition. I would highly recommend Himalaya Guide Nepal!

Manaslu Circuit Trek-2023
We had a fantastic trekking experience on the Manaslu Circuit with our wonderful guide, Kumar, from Himalaya Guide Nepal. Everything was impeccably organized, leaving us without a single worry.
The Manaslu Circuit is a breathtaking tour. Now, there’s an option to reach Machhakhola by jeep, which might be worth considering. This way, you could start the trek from there and plan an additional “rest day” higher up in the mountains to explore more highlights, such as a monastery (we loved the scenery!), Manaslu Basecamp, or any small peak near a village. Be sure to bring a good book, poker cards, and enough money for warm tea during the long, cold evenings at the lodges. The sleeping bags and down jacket provided by the agency kept us nice and warm.
I can absolutely recommend Himalaya Guide Nepal Company for any sort of Trekking.

The Best Trekking I Can Imagine-Manaslu Circuit Trek
At the end of November, my husband and I, along with our excellent guide Bashudev, had a wonderful trek around the Manaslu Circuit. We chose Himalaya Guide Nepal Pvt. Ltd. because of their wonderful reviews and Chandra’s detailed answers and help. Basu always chose cozy hotels with hot showers and beautiful views (where possible) and advised us on what to eat and where to find safe water. We trusted him completely. He led us on difficult paths and patiently waited when we needed rest. Every evening, we reviewed the map and planned the next day. Basu speaks excellent English and shared insights about Nepal’s religion, history, and customs. He became our friend during the trek, and we are very grateful for this memorable journey.

My wife and I had long dreamed of trekking around Manaslu Circuit and searched for a suitable agency. Manager Chandra selected the program, answered all our questions, and helped with equipment decisions. Basudev was an exceptional guide, always choosing the best accommodations with hot showers and comfortable conditions, and sharing insights about Nepal’s history and customs. Besides the usual trekking, Basu took us to hot springs, temples, and monasteries. I highly recommend this company! Thank you for making my best vacation come true!
