Trip Introduction

Overview of Annapurna Base Camp Trek-12 Days | Itinerary | Cost | For 2024

The urge to be in a high existence, such as Annapurna Base Camp Trek, has been shown to transcend the individual. Interest in remote Himalayan presences such as Annapurna is understood as a transcendent interest.

To be interested in Annapurna’s existence requires a certain level of awareness. Additionally, the level of interest in the Annapurna Base Camp Trek has a strong possibility of achieving a higher degree of blissful fullness. Its realization and transformation open the doors to recreation, joy, contentment, and ecstasy.

Take a glance at the graceful Mount Annapurna vistas and their awe-inspiring existence. Your level of awareness helps you discover the inner strength of the surroundings as you pass through the remote villages.

Rather than a person, Annapurna was named after the Hindu goddess of food. You can enjoy traveling along a trail that translates to “full of prosperity,” whereas Anna means food and Purna means full.

We guide you to the existence of the Annapurna Base Camp Trek, following your inner, transcendent interest in being in the Himalayas. Our guidance aims to help you with your curiosity about recreation, joy, happiness, and ecstasy.

We have figured out the best way to celebrate Annapurna so that we can adapt to your specific interests and enhance your holiday experience. Choose the program that best fits your needs and desires to reintegrate with nature.

Annapurna Base Camp Core Hike

The tremendous growth of technology in our lives has contributed to a global culture of isolation. The hike to Annapurna Base Camp is a mindful way of walking that engages the senses and allows for reflection.

Be on the trails and appreciate the Annapurna existence, using all of our senses to immerse ourselves in the present. The Annapurna hike is for you to immerse yourself in the dazzling Annapurna Himalayan range and green hills and connect with native people.

The departure date has been set for March when conditions are most ideal for the journey.

Annapurna Base Camp Yoga

Healing, rejuvenation, and rebalancing are all things yoga may help you with. Take advantage of Annapurna’s yoga to center yourself and reawaken your senses. In addition to restoring our inner harmony, connecting with nature through yoga also promotes a deeper sense of self-worth and meaning.

Being in Annapurna, where one can unwind physically and reconnect with nature, helps us reawaken. Being in touch with nature can help us feel more at peace and enhance our self-awareness.

The departure will take place in May, considering the weather and environment favorable for yoga. The connection we have with nature calms us, broadening our consciousness, which ultimately brings us closer to ourselves.

Annapurna Base Camp Celebration

Annapurna’s holiday celebrations bring together the excitement of a Nepali festival with the thrill of traveling through beautiful scenery and soaking in the sights of Nepal’s high mountains.

Since everyone has been so busy lately with work, the Annapurna Base Camp celebration will be a good break to enjoy the holiday together. This trip will be held on the occasion of Dashain in September and Tamu Loshar on December 30, 2024

Muscle stretching workouts and traditional exercises such as jogging, swimming, cycling, hiking, and many other alternatives are preferred for 4 to 6 weeks before the trek. After consulting with a doctor, assess your overall physical fitness and administer necessary vaccinations or medications.

Furthermore, we intend to trek above an elevation of 4,000 m, and the majority of foreign trekkers are from areas near sea level, so acclimatization is essential for avoiding altitude sickness. A day of acclimatization is required for a simple and easy trek for average trekkers, but professional trekkers do not need it.

Some locations charge extra for electrical gadget charging. Nowadays, many carry smaller, foldable solar chargers that let them charge their devices while walking.

You can also bring an extra battery or a portable power bank as a backup. It is essential to have spare batteries on hand in case of power outages or low voltage.

It is essential to check health and fitness as you travel through high-altitude regions. It helps to ensure a safe and comfortable experience for all the trekkers.

If your flight to or from Kathmandu is delayed, we will rebook it for the following day. As an agent, we will make every effort to coordinate with airlines to ensure you have a comfortable trip.

Extra hotel stays and food are not included in the package; if we need to stay overnight waiting for your flight the next day, we can arrange food and lodging at your request.

Kindly be aware that we do not grant refunds for any portion of the trek that is not used. This also totally depends on the circumstances, but we request you not expect any refund for the above reasons.

Specific fees apply if you desire to cancel your reserved trips. Behind that, we welcome you to shift your trip plan if you want changes in the booking date or destinations.

We may charge a specific amount if we have already completed some of your reservations on the previous booking day if you wish to reschedule the booking date. Both parties will benefit if you inform us as soon as possible. Please go through our terms and conditions to clarify the refund process.

Our target for a fixed departure is 12 visitors. If the visitor does not reach 12 within the given period, the trip will be shifted to a customized package, which changes the price, including terms and conditions. We will surely let you know about every change.

Due to the party size, we offer you a very affordable price on a fixed departure. The program will be revised following the trip that has been reserved if the group criteria are not met. Go through the other pricing if you want to book the trip on your date, or contact us if you need to customize your trip.

Note: We do not customize the program of fixed departure. Please contact us for the unique customized package if you create your itinerary rather than taking part in a fixed departure. Our team will happily assist you with their experienced advice and recommendations.

Starting before three months of your vacation, we strongly advise you to get active to mentally and physically prepare yourself.

We request you ask our ground team in Kathmandu for assistance in arranging day tours around the city. If you still have time extra few days or a week after the trek, we can also put one of the following quick relaxation trips. Feel free to pick the one you think will best suit your interests.

  • Lumbini
  • Chitwan Safari

All of these additional vacation days were planned with the idea that you would want to relax after a challenging and long trek rather than go hiking again. Please let us know if you would like any other destinations over these.

Nepal Holiday ensured we had the best experiences in Nepal

Trip guides and other crew members and very nice, professional and friendly. The information we got during the outdoor trip was very handy from our guide side.

I love and respect nature so it made me happy to see some of Nepal animals during the trek. In the future, i wish to do cmaping to get off from the main trails. Due to the cultural differences, i was worried not to offend anyone or not to be an intruder while taking photograph in many places.

I was happy to get to know our guide and observe people. I wish to stay in a teahouse and learn Nepali language and letters especially because it is not written in English in many places.

The holiday to Annapurna Base Camp was very good, everything was prepares, we did not have to worry about anything.

Also, i like your idea about environmental awareness. It is necessary for all human beings to live in clean places, Himalayas are highest in the world, should be respected.

We have had amazing time in Nepal

Pawan was there at the airport to pick us up on time. He was clearly visible. He warned us we would be swamped with people trying to take our bags and get us into their taxis.

The lodge and others served outdoors were all good and managed well. Transport back to Kathmandu was extremely slow but safe. The farewell dinner in Kathmandu was great and enjoyed it.

We have had an amazing time in Nepal and have managed to di everything we wanted. Everything ran very smoothly. Thank you Eco tours.

Pawan has been a really lovely guide, especially knowledgeable about traveling. I would recommend your service to others.

Eco-Friendly provides a comprehensive outdoor service

Our guide greeted us at the airport and was instantly recognizable with an eco-friendly treks board with our names on. The car was also waiting but Pawan was a little quite amid the confusion outside the airport with people trying to quarrel.

Kathmandu valley sightseeing was good. We feel happy while he took us but he could have told us a lot more about each place as we visited. I feel we saw all the valuable sights.

Somehow disappointed with the speed of the driver. A lot of dust and exhaust from trucks was very unpleasant. Farewell dinners in Kathmandu was excellent, a nice surprise too!

I feel pleased with the trip arrangement capacity of Eco-friendly. You have managed to do and all that we could have hoped. The whole trip has run very smoothly indeed and I have been very happy with the service. Eco-Friendly provides a comprehensive outdoor service that is friendly and efficient.

It was great vacation with you

When we arrived at the airport, we felt very welcome especially because of the flower garland. We felt very safe in the hotel because of the gate – service and the European standard of service. Most of all the breakfast was very delicious.

The road trip was a bit strenuous but it also an experience you have to gain in Nepal. The small bus was faster than the bigger tourist bus and public drivers are all risky.

Eco-Friendly had the best crew we could imagine. Our porter was very strong and fast and our guide was experienced, responsible and funny! The lodge were all very comfortable and the provided service was really good.

The farewell dinner in Kathmandu was very satisfactory. We had a nice discussion about the trip.

The trip management was amazing, very well done! You responded to our emails very quickly and the whole trip was managed very well.

I would like to recommend your outdoor service to others. Your staff first of all, is very nice and experienced. We felt it was a great vacation and would like others to experience it as well.

Thank you Eco-friendly for making our trip memorable

Our trip guide was knowledgeable and helpful. He has good insight on trek routes and culture. We went out of his way to prevent us from being charged extra (Eg. buying fruits, souvenirs).

All the teahouses were great except at Tadapani, where the rooms were old and dirty. Our guide motivated us to move along although the trek was tiring.

The trip includes very spectacular views and really friendly locals. Peoples were smiley and very different from city life.

Everything worked very smooth

Very heartly welcome at the airport. The hotel in Kathmandu was very clean and had pretty nice rooms. Breakfast in the Kathmandu hotel was bad, had to go to a restaurant.

The sightseeing was very nice, very interesting places. The driver couldn’t speak much English but was very friendly.

Has the best guide in Nepal. Was very friendly to us. Helped in every situation were it was needed. His experience helped us to finish this trip with success. We plated cards together in the lodges. He became friend and I hope we can be more friends together.

Lodges were sometimes simple but it was every time much more comfortable then I expected. Sleeping bags were heavy but warm and nice.

Experiencing the day to day lifestyle was very impressive to me. I got to know better understanding who people live and work in Nepal.

Everything worked very smoothly. We had no problems. Was very helpful to us when we were unsure about AMS. Changing the destination from Mt. Everest to Annapurna was very easy.

Lastly, we had a very well organized trip with very nice guide. The trip itself was amazing and we can help Eco-friendly in its efforts to save the nature n the Himalayas.

Hope to do a trip again with Eco-Friendly trekking.

The trip was well managed

We had really a very good guide. I will come after with Eco-friendly treks. It would be really great to get the same guide again.  Everything worked out very very smoothly. We are impressed by the commitment and professionalism of Nepal holiday travel!

We would like to recommend and again want to do a trip with your company. Everything was just great.

An EXCELLENT holiday for the price

When we first arrived, we were greeted very warmly! Vaishali hotel had poor food for breakfast. The shower did not work well. We had to change toom even though we were only staying for two nights. Manang hotel was excellent however.

The driver was friendly, but did not talk to us much about Kathmandu etc. The different sights we saw were excellent, especially the “monkey temple”.

Our guide Pawan was fantastic in the trail. He made us feel safe and really helped to ensure our holiday was great. The lodge are basic, but this is not a complaint. Most of the people working in the lodges were very friendly, polite and helpful.

The services were very good. The meals themselves were better than we expected, although there was not a lot of variety on the menu.

The trip arrangement was brilliant! Very organised, very helpful! This could not have been better, 100%

We would like to recommend your service especially to others who have not been to Nepal before and who want a relaxing holiday without having to worry about transport, accommodation etc.

Everything was smooth with Nepal holdiay

we had no difficulty in finding representatives as they had clear board with our names on them. Very nice and warm welcome. Vaishali was ok but the room was very noisy as just next to a dance club, breakfast not very impressive. Manang was friendliest and wiser.

Kathmandu Sightseeing was very well organised with leaving us unlimited time to see and enjoy Nepali culture.

Our guide Pawan was very good keeping us safe and making sure we were well fed. He was providing information about the names of peaks and forewarning us about the difficulties of the trek.

Absolutely everything was organised smoothly and stress-free even though communication in Nepal can be bad. We felt very well looked after and we had great confidence in Krishna Lamsal.

Our fantastic experience with Eco-friendly trekking left us with no doubt as to be able to recommend to others.

Well organised trip with Eco-friendly treks

Got a chance to gain great insight on local culture and lifestyle. The flight is delayed while we are back to Kathmandu.

Our trip guide is excellent, flexible and very informative. Trekking with Eco-friendly was wise choice as they are well organised, frexlible and friendly with us. Good value for money.

Everything was asked was done

There was no problem in airport pickup. Clear sign shoeing our names. Katmandu sightseeing was very good and excellent coverage of all the major sites.

All teahouses are good except Tadpani, which was of very poor standard in all respects. Trip guide was excellent and very informative.

The service of Eco-Friendly was amazing. Everything we asked for wad done. I would like to recommend you to everyone.
