Reviews

Annapurna was amazing

The Nepal trip to Annapurna was amazing! It beat expectations and was a marvel on so many levels. The landscapes, Mountains view, people and villages were super. Our guide, Krishna, was a huge bonus as he was an amazing person to spend two weeks with escorting us through the Annapurna Circuit Trek in a magical country Nepal.
