What people love about Himalaya Mountains Tours from Pokhara
I had a good time on this tour and my guide Dilaram did a great job showing me around the Nepali countryside at the foot of the Annapurna range and I learnt a lot about Nepali culture through him, though there was a bit of a language barrier at times. He is also a great photographer if you're looking to get nice pictures of yourself with the mountains. Although if you are looking to properly explore the mountains and nature, I'd recommend booking a different tour, as this was very much just a walk in the villages and always a stone's throw away from the city. I was slightly disappointed by that, but it was my fault I didn't read the description properly. If you're looking for a chill and easy walk in the fields and villages, this is the tour for you. To give you an idea, the first day was a steep ascent of 600 meters that took less than 2 hours, followed by a check-in to the guest house and a lunch break, followed by a 2-hour stroll in the village. The second day was a 6-hour walk to Saranghkot, followed by a check-in to another guest house, lunch break, and then about a 2-hour stroll around the village (but that's flexible depending on how much walking you're up for). The final day was just a 2-hour steep descent to the foot of the hill, followed by a visit to the local temple after which I was picked up and driven back to my hotel.
Dhampus Village Trek
I'm so glad I chose Peregrine Treks and Tours for my first trekking trip and a trip to Nepal. From start to finish, we felt extremely well taken care of. The included airport transfers were convenient, and the debriefing dinner after the trek added a personal touch. The trek itself was excellent, and our guide Krishna was fantastic. He was kind, funny, and flexible, and he made excellent suggestions to change/personalize our trekking route based on the wants and needs of our group. This trek and this trekking company are both highly recommended. We will return to Nepal!
