I cannot speak highly enough about Best Treks and Adventure and the Annapurna Base Camp trek they organized for me and my friends. From the initial planning to the final farewell, everything was seamless. Our guide, Bishnu, was fantastic—his expertise and sense of humor made the trek so much more enjoyable. The trail itself was stunning, with diverse landscapes and amazing mountain views. The team ensured we were well-fed, safe, and motivated throughout the journey. This was hands down one of the best adventures of my life. I’ll definitely be trekking with them again!

I had an unforgettable experience trekking to Annapurna Base Camp with Best Treks and Adventure. The team was professional, friendly, and made us feel at ease the entire time. Our guide, Dinesh, was outstanding—he shared fascinating stories about the local culture and ensured we were acclimatized and comfortable every step of the way. The views along the trail were spectacular, and the sense of accomplishment upon reaching Base Camp was overwhelming. This trek wouldn’t have been the same without such an incredible team. Thank you for the memories of a lifetime!

Trekking to Annapurna Base Camp with Best Treks and Adventure was one of the most magical experiences of my life. The scenery along the way was breathtaking, from lush green forests to towering snow-capped peaks. The team was incredibly organized, ensuring everything went smoothly. Our guide, Rajendra, was amazing—always cheerful, knowledgeable, and attentive to everyone’s needs. The tea houses were cozy, and the meals were hearty, which kept us energized throughout the trek. Reaching ABC felt like a dream come true. I highly recommend Best Treks and Adventure to anyone planning this trek!
