Best company for Annapurna Trek

We had the best time of our life exploring Nepal 🇳🇵connecting with God and nature in the beautiful mountains together! We had such peaceful, comfortable and enjoyable trek in the Annapurna Mountain Range!
The hospitality of the local people, the organic delicious food, fresh and calm air, and perfect weather in early March made our expedition as close to perfect as possible. Our local guide, Jaybir Tamang, is very humble, hospitable, knowledgeable, disciplined, kind, thoughtful ,and always looking out for our safety.
We highly recommend our brother Jaybir and his company, Alliance Treks & Expedition. Our wonderful journey all started with God and the much respected Managing Director Kul Bahadur Gurung.
