You wake up to stunning views of snow-covered Himalayan peaks. Your day is f illed with exploring beautiful mountain villages. In the evening, you relax in cozy, comfortable lodges with friendly Nepali hospitality. This is exactly what our 11-day Annapurna Luxury Trek offers - the perfect mix of adventure and comfort in Nepal's most amazing mountain region. Here at Vyas Treks Nepal, we've planned every detail of this journey carefully. We want to show you the best of Nepal while making sure you travel comfortably. From your first day in Kathmandu, you'll experience our famous Nepali warmth. We take care of everything - comfortable transport, great places to stay, and expert guides - so you can just enjoy your trip. Your adventure starts in Kathmandu. You'll visit ancient temples and UNESCO World Heritage Sites like Pashupatinath Temple and Patan Durbar Square. You'll also explore busy local markets. Then we'll take you on a beautiful flight to Pokhara, where you'll see the Annapurna mountains reflected in Phewa Lake's calm waters. The real adventure begins as we walk through green valleys, terraced farms, and traditional Gurung villages like lovely Ghandruk. What makes our luxury trek special?
- We choose only the best places to stay - comfortable city hotels and charming mountain lodges, all with private bathrooms and good bed
- We keep the walking times reasonable (usually 4-6 hours a day) at comfortable heights, so most people can enjoy it
- Our local guides know every path, village, and great viewpoint - they'll keep you safe and show you all the best spots
You'll enjoy tasty meals with both local dishes and familiar foods. Try real Nepali dal bhat (our national dish), fresh momos (delicious dumplings), and other mountain treats. If you have special food needs, just tell us - we'll take care of it! The scenery will amaze you. One day you're walking through colorful rhododendron forests, the next you're seeing incredible views of Annapurna South and Machhapuchhre (Fishtail Mountain). You'll cross clear mountain streams, walk through traditional stone villages, and might even see some Himalayan animals.
This trek is perfect for anyone who wants to see Nepal's famous mountains without roughing it. Whether you're a couple wanting a romantic trip, a family looking for an active holiday, or traveling alone and wanting adventure with comfort, our Annapurna Luxury Trek will give you unforgettable memories. We keep our groups small so everyone gets personal attention. Our guides don't just know the area well - they love sharing Nepal's beauty and culture. They'll introduce you to local villagers, explain Buddhist and Hindu traditions, and show you special places along the way. Vyas Treks Nepal is fully Nepali-owned, with years of experience creating wonderful treks. We believe in responsible tourism that helps local communities and protects Nepal's beautiful nature. When you travel with us, you support fair pay for guides and porters, and good practices in the mountains. Your safety is most important to us. Our guides know first aid and how to prevent altitude sickness. We check everyone's health during the trek and can change plans if needed. We use only good quality, well-kept equipment. By the end of your trip, you'll have experienced the magic of the Himalayas - friendly Nepali people, amazing mountain views, peaceful village life - all while enjoying comfortable beds, hot showers, and great food.

● All places to stay (nice hotels and the best mountain lodges)
