Fantastic Manaslu Circuit Trek - Went on this trek with two of my friends and we had an absolutely incredible time! Pasang Sherpa (owner and guide) and company were fantastic from beginning to end; really went above and beyond to give us a truly unique and memorable experience. He made sure to take us to many side attractions and expose us to local dishes and experiences. We'd often talk to other trekkers at the end of the day and find that they didn't even know those opportunities existed and were wowed by the added opportunities we had to explore. We really appreciated him meeting us in Kathmandu the day before our trek to check out all of our gear and make sure we had everything we'd need to be successful on trail. This continued during the trek where he helped to make sure we were staying healthy and always well fed! The tea he included at every rest stop and evening was a great added benefit! His management of accomodations and our timing on trail ensured we always had incredible views from our guest house rooms, rarely had to fight crowded bathrooms, or wait long for our meals. This really helped us move efficiently on trail day-to-day, a very important factor in having a comfortable and successful trip we had not even considered before going. We were able to get back to Kathmandu a day early due to incredibly good weather. On our return to Kathmandu he arranged for us to stay in a great hotel since our reservation didn't start until the following day. He also took care of us around the city, showing us other sites and helped us find great sources for all the gift shopping we wanted to do for friends and family. Pasang was an exceptional companion on trail and after. I went on this trip with my two closest childhood friends and Pasang seamlessly fit in with us and became a true friend along the way. He provided a truly excellent experience that exceeded all of our expectations. Can not recommend him more highly!

A great trip around Manaslu! - The Manaslu Circuit is a beautiful trek through river valleys and along the Manaslu Range. We had an amazing time thanks to the great work of Mount Adventure Holidays and our Guide Pasang Sherpa. Pasang customized our itinerary to ensure we visited cultural sites, paced well to acclimate to altitude, and found us accommodations at good tea houses along the way. We got so many great pictures from the trek, met travelers from all over the world on the trail, and got to enjoy local Nepali and Tibetan cultures. I recommend both this trek and working with Mount Adventure Holidays!
