As an American who has trekked and climbed often in the Himalayas nothing has compared to the service, kindness, professionalism and caring that I have always received from Tej and his company on many of my trips to Nepal.
You will find many companies offerring a similar package---- but the quality of what Tej offers has always made me return each time to use his services. Over the years, I have referred many of my friends to connect with Tej.Details...

We are fully satisfied with your services Tej,Your guide Singbir is well experienced and we felt comfort the trekking 5000m according to his” guide rule”.
The hotel and standard of the accommodation were perfect. Porters do their job well. Especially one of them actually looks the hotel in advance and helped us in the most difficult rout from Phedi to High camp. It is very good decision to tailor our pace with the overnight stay in high camp. It made us easy to pass the thorong la pass without any problem in next morning. The acclimatization at the high altitude was very tough but is needed and done professionally.
The Annapurna Circuit Trek takes you around the world's tenth highest mountain, Annapurna I ( 8,091m./26,700 ft.), crosses the classic Throng La Pass (5,416m/17,872ft.) from Manang to Muktinath, and takes in the magnificent mountain views from Poon Hill
(3,210m/10,593ft).
This trip is truly an amazing part of Nepal. The trek takes you from a low elevation of 830m/2739ft., to 5,416m/17,872ft and back. While you are on this trek, you will encounter ten different ethnic groups and pass through four different climate zones. Your efforts will be rewarded with the completion of this fantastic trek around the entire Annapurna massif. This magical trek reaches its zenith at 5,416m/17,872ft and traverses all the way through agricultural villages to high mountain passes that resemble mountain peaks and also to the beginning of the Tibetan Plateau.
This ambitious adventure begins from the town of Besi Sahar. From there, the next seven days will be spent walking through rice farms, forests and friendly villages belonging to the lower realms of the Annapurna Conservation Area. The peaks of Annapurna-I (8,091m/26,700ft) and Manaslu (8,187m/26,860ft) provide the backdrop for the initial stage of this journey, passing the quaint villages of Chamje and Pisang. The village of Manang (3,500m/11550ft) marks the beginning of the next stage, where a day will be spent acclimatizing to the higher altitude. A number of excursions in the area can help the acclimatization process, e.g., visiting various monasteries or viewing Gangapurna Lake that lies at the foot of a large icefall.
The Annapurna Circuit Trek will continue over Throng La Pass (5,416m/17,872ft). From here, you can marvel at the fabulous Mustang peak and the snow-clad bulk of Mt. Dhaulagiri (8,167m/26951ft). On your descent, you will have an opportunity to visit the Hindu pilgrimage site of Muktinath (3,800m/12540ft) and wonder at the presence of 108 holy taps and mysterious natural gas fires. Further down, the village of Marpha is a welcome stop. Here you can test the different varieties of foods and juices produced from apple, such as apple fritter, apple pie, apple crumble, apple juice, apple brandy and apple cider. In addition to being very tasty and delicious, they are probably the cheapest and best in the world !
You now descend further, down into the deepest gorge in the world on the Kali Gandeki River, all the way to Tatopani where you can relax and bathe in its natural hot springs. An early morning hike will lead you to Poon Hill (3,210m/10593ft) to see the most spectacular sunrise on earth, lighting up the picture-perfect Annapurna range. The trail leads you to another gorgeous site of Annapurna through a beautiful walk in a rhododendron forest. You will enjoy a close-up, panoramic view of Himchuli, Annapurna south and Machhapuchre( Fish tail) and many other snowcapped mountains. Descending further down to Ghandruk village, it will be time to bid farewell to the wonderful mountains as you reach Naya Pul and make your way back to civilization and Pokhara.
