It is moderately challenging in sections, with a significant portion featuring stone steps and rugged terrain, adding to the adventure and authenticity of this remote Himalayan trek.

Annapurna First Base Camp Trek Review
An Incredible and Memorable Experience
It was an unforgettable experience, made possible by the outstanding support of Gokyo Treks & Expedition, our guide Kamal, and the hardworking porters.
Our original plan was to trek to Gokyo Peak in the Everest region. However, due to unfavorable weather conditions in Lukla that prevented flights from operating, we changed our itinerary to the Annapurna fist base camp trekking.
Throughout the unexpected change, the team at Gokyo Treks & Expedition demonstrated remarkable flexibility, professionalism, and commitment. Our guide, Kamal, provided excellent leadership, ensuring the journey remained safe, enjoyable, and rewarding.
Thanks to their dedication, what began as a change of plans turned into an unforgettable adventure filled with spectacular landscapes and wonderful experiences.

Another Magical Experience with Gokyo Treks & Expedition
This was my third trip to Nepal, and once again I chose Gokyo Treks & Expedition (Ammar). They are absolutely outstanding at organizing treks on the Maurice Herzog Trail (North Face of Annapurna), and I trust them completely to tailor each journey to suit individual interests and preferences.
Although they offer a wide variety of trekking adventures, I especially recommend requesting Ashish as your guide. With his extensive mountain experience, excellent English, and friendly, dependable personality, he made the trek both enjoyable and informative.
His professionalism, local knowledge, and genuine care for trekkers exceeded all my expectations. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better guide.

Bucket List Item Ticked
I couldn’t have asked for a better trekking experience. As a couple traveler, We were welcomed into a small, friendly group, and the entire team went above and beyond to make everyone feel comfortable. They were considerate of each person’s pace and ensured we enjoyed the best viewpoints throughout the journey.
Gokyo Treks & Expedition organized everything from start to finish, making the trip completely hassle free. I highly recommend trekking with a guide on this route, as it is remote and has limited mobile network coverage.
Our guide, Nava, was kind, knowledgeable, and encouraging throughout the trek. His local expertise and positive attitude made the experience even more memorable. The views were simply beyond words. If you’re looking for a peaceful and less crowded trail in the Annapurna region, I highly recommend booking this route with Ammar and his team.

Amazing Experience on the Maurice Herzog Trail!
I had an incredible experience trekking in the Maurice Herzog Trail (Annapurna Ist base camp). It was my first visit to Nepal, and from the very beginning, I felt I was in safe and capable hands. Everything was perfectly organized, including flights to Pokhara, comfortable accommodation, and private jeep transfers to and from Humkhola.
During the trek, the food was simple yet delicious, especially the traditional Dal Bhat. Our guide, Nava, was exceptional, patient, friendly, and highly knowledgeable about the trail, mountain terrain, and local surroundings. His guidance made this journey both enjoyable and safe. Ammar, the owner of Gokyo Treks & Expedition, ensured that every detail was handled professionally, making the entire experience seamless.
The stunning mountain scenery and countless beautiful waterfalls completely captured my heart. If I return to Nepal in the future, I will definitely choose this trek again.

North Annapurna Base Camp Hike just superb
We first met Ammar in 2010 and have arranged several trekking trips through his agency over the years. In September 2025, we completed the North Annapurna Base Camp trek with a fully supported camping expedition.
Ammar also recommended extending our journey with a visit to the beautiful Kali Gandaki Valley. Although we were unable to include it because of our limited schedule, it is certainly an option we would consider on our next visit. If you’re looking for a true wilderness trekking experience in Nepal, we highly recommend the North Annapurna Base Camp route.
Our guide, Pasang, a local Sherpa from the Everest region, was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive throughout the trek. He helped us select the right camping equipment and ensured everything ran smoothly on the trail.
Ammar took care of every detail before and during our trip, including hotel reservations, trekking permits, porters, a cook, transportation by jeep to Narachyang Village, and all other logistics. His excellent organization and prompt communication made the entire experience completely stress free.
Once again, thank you to Ammar and the entire Gokyo Treks & Expedition team for another unforgettable adventure. We look forward to trekking with you again in the future.
