    Great Trip!! This is an awesome trek with an awesome changing landscape as you move up to the pass. We had blue skies each day and delighted in strolling through a wide range of towns and getting a brief look at Nepali country life. The route isn't occupied so go soon as it is getting increasingly famous.

    The Manaslu trek was a very beautiful trek regardless of how far you get. Unfortunately, we had too much snow for a couple of days. But after that we had better weather afterward. The scenery was mind blowing. It's awesome seeing the change in culture as you get closer to the Tibetan border.

    Fantastic Experience!! Such a wonderful experience! The landscape is stunning and changing as per altitude. Trek was challenging and fun. Tea houses and lodges offer basic accommodation, food is abundant and spicy and you get to experience Nepal Culture.

    I did this trek with my friend in May 2022. We arrived in Kathmandu and held up 1 more day to prepare the Trek permit by Sherpa Expedition and Trekking Team. All the administrations were given by the organization as guaranteed. The cost was entirely sensible contrasting with numerous different agencies.

    I trekked to Manaslu in Monsoon season, but it was a lot better experience than expected. It did rain but we had greater views. Be careful with slippery trails. Lodges were closed somewhere during the trail that made us walk more than of usual days, it made us triring but was worth it as the views from Larke Pass was the best! Cheers!

    We had an extraordinary trek. Hike was delightful and quite, since we began the trek toward the start of March. Relatively few visitors were on the trek which made it great. We made some extraordinary memories with guide and porter who were consistently in for jokes and great card players :) The trip was marvelous and highly recommend Sherpa Team!

    Few trekkers during the trial, great sceneries, decent cabins to snooze, great food, friendly people... trip was simply fantastic! It was an astonishing to be in - with outside air and continually awesome environment around. One gets so used to climb each day, be outside and appreciate the tranquility. Thanks for Great Memories.
