    It was a great trek with friends and family making our adventures trekking to Annapurna Circuit Tilicho. Our guide porter was very fantastic and helpful. Our porter was also very fantastic. One of our friends had altitude sickness but he was properly taken care.

    Annapurna, Circuit Trek was a wonderful trek. Walking from lush green scenery, up through beautiful forests, above the tree line, and onto the snow was a great experience. Tilicho Lake in the snow was beautiful. Thanks to Ram and his team for a fantastic trek.

    I would recommend this hike in My, we had clear blue skies every day, and the paths (pretty much) to ourselves. Trekking Trail was really good quality, and the teahouses we stayed in/food were all excellent.
