Annapurna trekking

Price of booking to go Mount Annapurna trek online with a private company is probably the best way to make your trip cheaper. Trekking in Annapurna with the price ranges USD$ 800 all the way to USD$1,200 for an average 12 to 13 days trek.

Prices generally include all permits, Kathmandu – Pokhara single-way flights. Also includes lodge accommodation, meals, a guide, and porters. Prices won’t include guest travel insurance, visa fees, or trekking equipment. The benefits of booking online are everything is pre-arranged for your arrival. You can literally arrive in Kathmandu on day one and head out trekking on day two.

Some things like trek permits or Pokhara flights are not referred to and need to clarify in writing. Be aware that it is very important to be aware of “too good to be true prices” online. US$ 900 or even less for the base camp trekking with a “well-known” agency might well mean you’re joining another much larger group that can cause all types of problems later on. For example, people not showing up, no choice in accommodation, being with a big Group Departure Trek of another nationality you may not like, etc.

Furthermore, hot showers are not included in accommodation prices. So, prepare to pay US$2 for a hot shower. Maybe during the offseason, the price of a single room goes a little down. And it’s easier to bargain a little bit for better prices.
