2026 Annapurna Base Camp Trek
We choose Aarush Adventures because I had met Birman Tamang on a 2023 trek. This year our Aarush Adventures representatives were Abhinaya (“Avi”), our guide, and Rupesh and Bire were our support team. We would not have achieved our goal of reaching Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) without them and we also shared so many laughs, stories, and created lifetime memories.
From start to finish, our trek was unforgettable. At our request, Aarush Adventures made some slight modifications to our trek package. We added a few extra days for time zone adjustment and shopping/exploring in Kathmandu. We also added an Everest Scenic Flight to our itinerary - and were fortunate to see many mountains and Himilayas peaking through the clouds. The overall package included airport pick up, sightseeing, hotels, lodges, trekking guide and support team, many of the meals, permits, and more (check out their webpage for more details and current pricing) Absolutely great value for the package price!
We experienced so many different elements in the 12 days ABC trek - weather (humidity, snow, sleet, rain, hail, and sun), terrain (trails and soooo many stairs) and the unique character of the various villages we passed through or stayed in. We saw amazing mountains, lush forests, beautiful trees and flowers, monkeys, many birds, water buffalo, horses…and yes more than our share of stone stairs. Our Aarush team encouraged, supported, and educated us about the people, culture, and wide range of experiences that can arise in Himilayas. What an unforgettable trip!!
Avi, Rupesh, and Bire are very professional, fun, kind, strong and great ambassadors for their company and their country. I would highly recommend Aarush Adventure to anyone venturing to Nepal to tour or trek!!
