Annapurna circuit - Adventure bound have been a great company to go through. They made booking super easy and flexible. They were also super clear with instructions and tasks we needed to do before going on the trek.
Our guide Rabin was amazing. He was super friendly and kind. He made an effort to make the trip as comfortable for us as possible and was super honest and approachable.
Would recommend adventure bound as the trekking company to book through and try to get guide Rabin

Recommended Adventure bound (Annapurna north circuit) - Adventure bound service and travel schedule. We learned about this travel agency from friends. Communication before departure, service on the go and climbing skills are very smooth and professional. We six invited two guides and three porters in total. (Main Guide: Raman, with Guide: Mohan and threeporters : Sanu, Krishna and Santosh)
The English of the guide and the English of the travel agency contacts are very good, very stress-free in terms of communication, and also respond very quickly (usually less than half a day), the travel agency has hostels in Kathmandu and Pokhara, for the trip out of A to B helped a lot, the price of the hostel is fair and clean, we are first in Kathmandu to stay one to two nights after renovation and then depart, down the mountain directly to Pokhara's hostels. In terms of fitness, it is also very appropriate to respond to emergencies. This time, although we chose the best season for the dry season, but we also experienced about three days of storm snow on the mountain, Guide will be patient to communicate with everyone the current situation and various alternative options. Safety is no problem. The path also introduces all the mountains as well as the flowering grass on the road and various Nepalese cultures. We enjoy this trip very much! The tea house chosen by the company is also good and delicious 😍, and the group fee is not especially expensive, if you come to Nepal again, you will choose this company again.

Fantastic Annapurna Circuit Short Trek - Our Annapurna Circuit Short Trek was an amazing experience for my daughter and myself. Our guide Santosh was very knowledgeable, patient and understanding to our needs and was always very enthusiastic with an attitude that kept us motivated at all times. All the lunch places and nightly stays at tea houses were great and all went to making a very memorable experience. To top it all off, we had great weather the whole trip with snow falling on the trek up to High Camp and then a perfectly clear day for the trek over Thorang-La Pass. A fantastic trip full of wonderful memories - thank you Santosh and Adventure Bound.

Unique Experience with great effort by the guide and organisation - The entire trip was very well Organised since we were short on time we decided to go with an agency. Probably this time best decision ever. If you are lucky you get Raj as a guide. I have never experienced so much effort sympathy and laughing to not only enjoy the countryside as it is but also getting in touch with the culture.The trip is tough even for trained hikers and it was nice to have a person all the time taking care of what is happening next. Absolute recommendation thank you very much !

Great 11 days with Thorong-La pass crossing - 11 days trekking from Jagat to Jomsom with flight to Pokhara.
Beautiful tour with so many great impressions. Good organization by organizers and on site by our friendly and helpful guide Sandip. Accommodation was fine and the food always good.
It was exhausting but we had a lot of fun. Living in the lowlands and crossing a pass at over 5,400m: It's okay!

Our experienced guide Raj made this trek unforgettable! - Hiring the company Adventure Bound with Laxman’s friendly support and the experienced, funny and caring guide Raj was the best decision ever. Together with his porter Beesal, we had so much fun during the Annapurna Circuit trek. Raj knows where to find the best accommodations with excellent food and comfortable rooms (especially for couples!). He also cared for other travellers and welcomed everyone with an open heart on our journey. The ascent to Thorong La Pass was surprisingly tough due to strong winds in the morning which is unusual. But with the support of Raj and Beesal, we made it to the top! They became true friends on this trip. Can’t wait to book another adventure soon!

Beautiful and unforgettable - Anapurna!! - Devi Raman Aryal- you were the best guide ever!
Thanks so much for your friendly, polite and professional support.
I was out with Raman for 14 days and we did the Anapurna Circuit and then the Poonhilltrek together for 2 days.
It was just incredible! The views are amazing!
Raman was very accommodating and left nothing to be desired.
For the pass crossing he prepared us optimally, so we had no problems whatsoever.
I was super happy.
Thanks Raman, Mr Laxman and our team for this great vacation.

Above our expectations - We did the Annapurna Circuit short trek (8days of walking) starting from Bagarchhap to Jomsom. It was a perfect organized trek for sportive people with or without experience in high altitude. We felt very safe during the trek because of our guide Bhakta Kubir Rai. We highly recommend adventure bound and especially Bhakta Kubir Rai as a trekking guide!
